If you’re currently at odds with your kitchen and want to tear it apart, we have one suggestion for you: Start with just one teeny, tiny, manageable change. Here at Kitchn, we strongly believe that a micro-level change can help you love your kitchen on a macro level. To prove it to you, I asked my super-smart coworkers to tell me “one small thing” they did that made them fall more in love with their kitchens. (And I added my own tip at the end, too!)

I started storing my cutting boards like they’re cookbooks! I saw this photo on our site at some point and it was like an actual lightbulb went off. I had been keeping all of my cutting boards and serving boards stacked on top of each other and it was a real pain in the you-know-what to get one out when I needed it. Plus, I have a pretty collection that deserves to be displayed. I filed mine in a row on the counter next to the fridge and now I smile when I look at them — and when I can easily pull one out.” Lisa Freedman , Lifestyle Director

“I used to have them stuffed in a drawer, but this magnetic wall bar makes my go-to knives so easy to reach for when I am in the middle of cooking. Plus it really does show them off and people always compliment our collection when they walk into our kitchen.” Sheela Prakash , Senior Contributing Food Editor

“My handy husband added little hooks to a shelf to make a home for our measuring cups and spoons . And guess what? It’s the ONLY thing in my entire rental kitchen that doesn’t infuriate me. ” Nina Elder , Executive Food Director

“My over-capacity freezer was starting to become a freezer-burned No Man’s Land. I had no idea what was stuffed inside or how old anything was, so I did a massive freezer clean-out and threw out anything I that I had neglected for far too long. Now I keep a complete freezer inventory , which makes deciding what to make for dinner (or what I need to pick up from the grocery store) a whole lot easier.” Lauren Masur , Lifestyle Editor

What’s a small thing you did recently in your kitchen that made you love it more?
