This weekend I was baking some cookies and I decided to share how I organize some of my kitchen gadgets. One of my favorite things to bake is cookies. I have been baking since I was a little girl and I still have a couple of cookie cutters from my childhood.
Over the years, I have acquired about 50-60 cookie cutters and for a long time I kept them in a big box all mixed together.
My System for Organizing Cookie Cutters
But now I take much better care of them and have them organized by theme. I used some corrugated mailing boxes for my collection. These boxes are cheaper than some of the plastic boxes I have seen and work great.
This saves me time because I just pull out the box I need and do not have to touch the other cutters.
It also takes minimal room in my kitchen cabinet. I can rotate the boxes by theme so that the ones for the upcoming holidays are in front.
The cost for these boxes is minimal. You can buy a set from your local office supply store. I found this to be cheaper than plastic boxes with lids of the same size.
How do you store your cookie cutters?

How fantastic! I love cookie cutters but my collection isn't very impressive. I love how you've organized and would love to have a collection like yours. Thanks for sharing with us over at Real Housemoms.

Great organization tips. I have many cutters (mostly plastic) that I used for my daughter's bento lunches. I have them in large baggies and in a few containers, but I like this idea! Thanks for linking up to my Pin Me Party!

I never thought of that. My cookie cutters are in giant tubes and tubs and fall all over the place any time I'm looking for something in my cupboard. I just learned something helpful. Thanks. Followed you from SITS. Have a blessed day!
