About once a year I try to clean out my cupboards and my kitchen drawers. I get rid of a lot of things {useless, had to have stuff} and when I try to put the keep stuff back it seems like I have less room than before. Don't know how that happens!

I moved a few years ago and actually got rid of lots of gadgets and duplicate what-nots. Haven't missed any of it!

NO!!!! don't throw it out!!!!
yep it's useless for it's intended use but I found a great way to use mine. I flattened the out edges so it was completely flattened and covered it with contact paper and it's a great magnetic board. Then I bought some small metal round containers and put some button type magnets inside, added my spices into the containers and now I have a very pretty place to store all my spices, which makes them easier to get to without having to dig around looking for them on a shelf. here's a picture of it mounted under my cabinet

High on my list of dumb kitchen items is the sideless cookie sheet I recently puchased. I can't easily grab the pan when I take it out of the oven. Why the heck did I buy it?
What kitchen item have you purchased that turned out to be of no help? |

Sometimes I'll pull something out of the drawer and I can't remember what you're supposed to do with it

Oh yeah! Forgot that one DH just thought we really needed it til he found out how many oranges it took to get 4 ounces of juice. Not sure what happened to it. May have accidentally gone to the curb. I have a set of good china from high school never used. Not throwing it out though!!
