Whether you've got lots of just a little, or workspace in your kitchen, keeping your marble vanity countertoporganized and neat is predominant.

I have lived with tiny countertops and large ones, and no matter what, I consistently corral the things that stay out on the countertop, so that it is easy to see what should be put away and what goes. Here are 10 examples of countertops with a pretty corner focused on holding the stuff that is main.

What lives out on your countertop all the time? For me, it's olive oil, pepper, salt, sugar, garlic, and shallots. You can see above I elevate and corral those ingredients using a footed plank and a pastry stand that is vintage. They keep things out of the way, and make cleaning the counter easier (just nudge the plank over a bit to wipe underneath).
