Our Kitchen Cure just wrapped up its final week, and we hope all of you who participated are luxuriating and feeling victorious in your freshly clean, freshly Cured kitchen. Here's a look at a few particularly victorious readers — they sent us photos of some especially improved things in their kitchens.
And those of you who didn't send photos — no problem — we hope you are all like Sousani, who said: "I did not post any pictures or make any dramatic changes, but a sparkling clean and organized kitchen is beautiful. I must do this twice a year - how did I live and cook and eat with all that dust and expired food?"
That's right! The Kitchen Cure is hopefully an inspiration to all of us to keep our kitchens in good working order year round, and if they do get a bit mussy again, well, there's always the Fall Cure to look forward to!
Thank you to everyone who participated, and happy cooking!

I need those birds! Where are they from?
The first photo is absolutely magnificent. I love crisp colors in everyday homes! :D
deniseandpete's stemware rack looks great; any tips on where to get one from in the UK? I have a set of pretty, tall, pink cocktail glasses without a proper home that would look lovely on display.
marmite: Thanks! I'm pretty sure I bought the stemware rack from IKEA, although I couldn't find it on their web site. But I'm sure any type of organization store (we have The Container Store here) has something similar. This one simply hooks over the shelf, but I also have one in another spot that screws to the bottom of the shelf.
marmite, if you haven't already, take a look at amazon.
deniseandpete, I love your kitchen. Please share the name(s) & source of your bulk kitchen storage jars on the top shelf in your photo ... they may be the solution to my frustration. ;-)
I have yet to find glass storage that (1) has excellent air-tight seal (2) has a wide mouth (for scooping w/ measuring cups) and (3) is the right size (just large enough to store a 5 lb bag of flour or sugar).
My current kitchenn storage is beautiful, silver-toned, Tupperware plastic (looks like stainless steel) & over 10 yrs old. Once I find great glass kitchen storage, the Tupperware will be used for non-food storage. Please do tell ...
