Article Fridgescaping: The Latest Decorating Trend

By

28 Comments

It’s called ‘fridgescaping’ and it’s the latest trend that will leave you scratching your head.

And no, it has nothing to do with decorating the exterior of your refrigerator with magnets and fancy lists.

This trend is all about creating an aesthetically pleasing fridge interior. Whether it actually defeats the practical purpose of a fridge is up for debate.

A quick scroll through the hashtag #fridgescaping TikTok or Instagram will quickly bring you up to date with this unique movement. It’s all about creating a beautiful (somewhat cluttered) display inside the fridge – using everything from fresh flowers to photo frames.

That’s right, just because it isn’t edible, doesn’t mean it’s out of place in the fridge, if you’re fridgescaping.

Earlier this year Lynzi Judish decided to try her hand at fridgescaping, and she’s since amassed a huge social media following. Initially she admitted the trend has a few setbacks.

“I’m unsure if this is sustainable, but I love it so much, so I’m going to give it a serious try! For the first time ever I can see all my produce, so I think this will lead to less waste and maybe also less shopping. “This would be literally impossible for anyone with kids unless you never allow them to touch your refrigerator.”

Since first trying the trend, Lynzi has since tried themed fridgescaping – everything from, enchanted forest and Bridgerton to Hobbit-inspired.

“When I tell you I’m constantly opening my refrigerator right now just to look at it, I am not exaggerating!” Lynzi said. “I’m plotting meals and pretty ways to romanticise meals. I’m on cloud 9 and heaven is Bridgerton, or rather Fridgerton.”

Like many trends based on aesthetics, fridgescaping isn’t exactly practical. Who wants to be moving a bunch of flowers out of the way when you’re trying to get to the butter?

But if it makes your soul sing … all power to you!

  • This is definitely not something that I would even contemplate.

  • I keep my fridge door shut for as long as possible and only open the door when I want something. That way I save on electricity bills too. This weird idea is not for me at all. I like to see where my food is and I want to see it easily.

  • The fridge door is always mostly shut, why would you want to work on an attractive interior?! Waste of time if you ask me

  • Oh my!! Who would have the time! I don’t even have the space in my fridge for this!
    Definitely not my kind of thing.

  • Just use your fridges for their intended purpose. What is the world coming to.

  • Imagine going to a friends for a cup of tea, you’re talking about your family history and they say “I have a photo of my great grandfather in the war” and you ask to see it and they say .. “oh yes it’s in the fridge”
    Weird. Impractical. Social media should be banned to those who participate.

  • I don’t really see the point of doing something that makes your fridge less useful.

  • I’ll pass on the floral arrangements and picture frames in my fridge. I prefer my food easily accessible and my fridge clean and functional.

  • It’s a no from me. Even if I didn’t have kids to mess things up I really can’t see the point.. ????????

  • What a waste of time and fridge space

    Reply

  • I bet they have a second fridge in the garage for the ‘real food’s haha ….unless they live on takeout?

    • They might as well unplug the display fridge ;)

      • And why not break the door off too and simply use it as a dispay cupboard/case ;)

  • Kind of defeats the purpose of a functional space…

    Reply

  • OMG! The world is going crazy. Where do you fit the real food around all that clutter.

    Reply

  • Very practicxal lol ! I rather walk outside and look what’s on display in the garden

    • Opening the fridge all the time to look at the display would not be good for the energy either

    Reply

  • Clearly some people have too much time on their hands.

    • Yes i agree, lucky for them. I personally don’t have the time to organise my fridge like this, everything just gets dumped in mine LOL

    Reply

  • Very interesting way to use a fridge! Lol each to their own

    Reply

  • lol my fridge is a disorganised messy nightmare on a good day!

    Reply

  • A different idea – each to their own.

    Reply

  • Generally I’m all about “you do you”, but this is weird and stupid.

    Reply

  • It looks cute, but I don’t know how hygienic some are having photo frames and non food safe objects in the fridge. For me it would end up being a smashing hazard as I’m rushing through the fridge at meal time.
