My DH and I were talking about decluttering and our organizational issues. It came out that he hates having things on top of the fridge. I never knew that!
So I decided to tackle the kitchen counters, the outside of the fridge and our island.
Here are the before pictures, you can see the fridge issue he doesn’t like:
I started by taking EVERYTHING off any flat space, including the magnets. Those procreate as much as my pens and pencils do!
I ended up with this:
It looks great doesn’t it? But I actually need some things on my flat surfaces, like our toaster oven!
So I put back only the essentials!
Ending up with this: 
I love it! You can see my bill holder top left of the picture on the left. That I didn’t de-clutter. But it always looks empty AFTER I pay the bills. I love the new look and so far (after a week) don’t miss anything that was up there.
Wow! How long did that take you to get it all organized? What did you do with the lovelies on your fridge? I can’t seem to get rid of my kidlets’ art projects all over my fridge; I’ve resorted to posting them on my door–ach!!!

Wow, what a difference! Great job, it looks amazing.
It took about an hour. I found some really old things on the fridge. Those were easy to get rid of. Also, how many magnets does a person need? Not as many as we have.
