Favorite Organizing Tools: Lazy Susans

Lazy susans are the most ill-named organizing tools in existence. They actually work overtime keeping cabinets and shelves organized! I am going to share my favorites and tell you why.

This super deep cabinet above was a perfect example of where to use a large lazy susan. The 18" diameter allows you to easily see what's in the back instead of having to pull everything out.

The smaller 10" bamboo lazy susan is pretty enough to be on the counter but also works well for keepingPB & J together. I love creating a "station" of items that belong together.


I think a bamboo or acacia wood lazy susan by the stove is a chic way to keep oils, salt & pepper neatly organized and accessible.

I almost always recommend a divided lazy susan for storing and organizing medications. The dividers help you keep cold medicine separated from pain relief and bandaids.

You may even want to get 2 so you have one for adults and one for the kids' meds. These are a little bit smaller so are perfect for smaller bottles.

These sturdy white lazy susans do wonders in pantries with wire shelves. Nothing can hide with these in place! I also use them under sinks for cleaning supplies.

I love using these clear lazy susans in refrigerators. It's all too easy to lose food in the back and these keep you from finding food mysteries. Plus the clear color and shorter lip makes everything super accessible. Clear lazy susans look great in pantries, too!

Just make sure you measure before purchasing anything! A lot of what I posted comes in multiple sizes so make sure you get the right one for your space.
