If you visit my blog regularly, you may have already noticed I occasionally share free printable downloads in my blog posts. (And if you aren’t a regular visitor, feel free to check out the links below to see a few of my favorite printable creations!)

I hope you’re not sick of free printables, because I have two new ones to share with you today! These kitchen references will help make cooking and baking just a little bit easier.

Both printables focus on measurements and conversions that can be tricky to remember, especially when you’re in the middle of making a recipe!

Printable #1 – Common Kitchen Measurements “Cheat Sheet”

The other day I was working on a cooking post that required me to make several changes to the recipe amounts. I was having trouble with it because sometimes I find it hard to remember how many teaspoons are in a tablespoon, and how many tablespoons are in a cup, and so on.

I kept having to pull out my phone and double-check on the measurements, and it was driving me crazy! By the end of it, I decided to take matters into my own hands and come up with something helpful I could hang in my kitchen!

So this is what I came up with – my Common Kitchen Measurements “Cheat Sheet!” It’s nothing fancy, but it does the job! Right now I have one taped to the inside of my baking cupboard at home, and another one displayed in a nice frame at our studio. (It’s so handy to be able to reference the sheet instead of having to pull out my phone every time!)

Printable #2 – Capacity Reference

The second printable I’m sharing today is less of a “cheat sheet” and more of a visual aid. I’m a very visual learner, so the first time I saw this design I wanted one in my kitchen! The letters represent different measurements, so you can easily see how many of one measurement fits inside another measurement.

There are 2 cups in a pint, so 2 “C’s” fit inside a “P.”
And there are 2 pints in a quart, so 2 “P’s” fit inside a “Q.”
And there are 4 quarts in a gallon, so 4 “Q’s” fit inside a “G.”

Clever, right?

With the help of this visual aid, you can also see that there are 4 cups in a quart, 16 cups in a gallon, and so on. I printed out a copy of this printable and hung it right on the fridge, but I think I’ll try to find a spot to hang it on the kitchen wall!
