My tiny kitchen was ruled by clutter until I spotted these clever £2 organisers at Lidl – they’ll double cupboard and fridge space and turn chaos into calm

My tiny kitchen was ruled by clutter until I spotted these clever £2 organisers at Lidl – they’ll double cupboard and fridge space and turn chaos into calm

If you’re in the market for handy and affordable kitchen storage solutions, get yourself to your local Lidl middle aisle as the supermarket is about to drop fridge and cupboard organisers from just £1.99 – this is what I’m snapping up for my tiny kitchen.

As I write, I’m looking at my tiny kitchen, and I’m determined to put some small kitchen storage ideas to good use. When you lack space, organisation and a few clever storage solutions are paramount for a tidy kitchen – and I’ve definitely seen my space descend into chaos when I lack these features.

Lidl’s new fridge and cupboard organisers drop on Sunday (2 August), and I’m not missing out on the opportunity to smarten up my cabinets and organise my fridge more efficiently.

For context, I have a small fridge and freezer built into my worktop, and about two kitchen cupboards for food storage. One of these cabinets has become a mini seasoning pantry, where I keep all my spices. Using my trusty shelf inserts (like this £16 Argos Home insert), these items all stay relatively tidy.

I can’t say the same about my dry goods, which seem to be in a permanent state of disarray. But this is where Lidl’s Kitchen Cupboard Organiser With Three Compartments (£1.99) will come in handy when organising kitchen cupboards. With three equally spaced compartments, it’s ideal for storing bags of rice, pasta and orzo (all of which are currently shoved in my cupboard with no thought behind it).

It’s also suitable for use in the fridge, and a great way to keep food groups together and in one place. If you like multiple cheeses, you can keep them together, or if you haven’t already invested in a produce saver, it can keep fresh produce in one place – reducing your chance of forgetting about veg in the back of the fridge.

Lidl also has a Kitchen Cupboard Organiser With Handles, which is a large container measuring L25.4 x W15.2 x H12.7cm. The brand will also be selling a more space-saving Kitchen Cupboard Organiser With Lower Front, which can store everything from fresh fruit to canned goods.

All organisers can handle a range of temperatures from -20 to 40°C and are made from transparent plastic to make it easy to identify their contents. The products will only be available in store. If you don’t have a Lidl local to you, I’ve rounded up a few more affordable options you can shop online.

These fridge organisers stack on top of each other, making them great for small fridges. They’re also designed to circulate air, keeping your produce fresher for longer.

This produce keeper is sectioned off into three compartments to allow to seperate your fruit and veg. The compartments are also removable, making it super easy to grab what you need.

This stylish spice rack takes up minimal counterspace, but can hold 16 spice jars at a time. It also revolves, making it perfect to have on hand when cooking.

A tidy and organised kitchen really does make all the difference on how it operates, and whether you actually enjoy spending time in yours. These Lidl organisers may seem like a small detail, but they will make a big difference to the run of your kitchen.

M&S just elevated linen bedding to a whole new level – I’m a Sleep Editor, and I’ve never seen this cool and breathable fabric look so luxe before

M&S just elevated linen bedding to a whole new level – I’m a Sleep Editor, and I’ve never seen this cool and breathable fabric look so luxe before

I love linen bedding. As Ideal Home’s Sleep Editor, I’ve spent the past five years testing the best bedding on the market, and, as a hot sleeper, I’ve learnt that I definitely sleep best under a cool and breathable linen bedding set.

However, I know that not everyone feels the same way. If you prefer the look of crisp, crease-free cotton sheets, then even the best linen bedding can feel a little *too* laidback and crumpled.

However, Marks and Spencer has just changed all that. In my opinion, the new M&S Pure Linen Bedding Set is the ideal solution if you want to benefit from a cooler sleep whilst still retaining elevated hotel-luxe vibes in your boudoir.

Pure Linen 190gsm Bedding Set

The new linen collection is available in four smart colourways; white, linen, charcoal, and navy.

Why is this bedding set so different? Two things. First, this 190gsm fabric has a more structured feel than most linen bedding. That means that it drapes a little more smoothly when it’s on the bed, which results in a more refined look.

And secondly, those smart piped edges. It may seem like a small detail, but when it comes to bedding that delivers hotel-luxe vibes and brings a more ‘expensive’ and elevated feel to the bedroom, it is *all* about the detail.

Piped edges frequently feature on high-end cotton bedding, but it’s a detail I haven’t seen incorporated into a linen bedding set before. And, to my mind at least, it adds a whole new look to this timeless fabric.

Plus, you still get to benefit from linen’s *fantastic* breathability. Something especially important in this increasingly long run of hot weather we’ve been experiencing in many parts of the country.

That’s because good breathability equals good airflow, and bedding that allows good airflow enables the body to regulate its temperature better, which in turn results in a deeper and more restorative sleep.

Little wonder then that I’m not alone in being impressed by M&S’ new launch. ‘Beautiful quality linen,’ says one 5-star review on the M&S website. ‘Smart piping elevates the look.’

‘Great quality,’ raves another owner. ‘The piping on duvet cover and pillowcases is a nice addition… so far best linen bedding I have purchased. Highly recommended.’

‘Cool to sleep in and washes well,’ says another happy M&S shopper.

When it comes to where to buy bedding that offers both cool sleep and hotel-luxe design, M&S is clearly the place to shop.

Plus, Marks and Spencer is one of the best places to snap up affordable linen bedding; its non-piped bedding set is the most budget-friendly I’ve tested. I’ve rounded up a few more of the brand’s most cooling sleep solutions below.

The piped detailing on this linen duvet cover makes it look uber expensive, and you get two pillowcases included in the set.

It has a more relaxed look, but this M&S linen bedding set offers great value for money.

Photography News: Sony FX5 Announced, Laptop Sales

Photography News: Sony FX5 Announced, Laptop Sales

Until recently, I was convinced that I was a thoroughly patient person. As a wildlife photographer, for example, I’m a champion at staring at a bare, moss-covered branch or an empty stretch of water for hours on end. I can even accept it if it all leads nowhere. It wasn’t until my recent dealings with an insurance company while resolving a certain incident—and my attempt to edit photos on a cheap, disposable laptop that I’d brought along on my travels—that I began to suspect my patience might have its limits. Both situations resulted in an incredibly tedious and frustrating process with very little to show for the effort.
