Dealing with a tiny kitchen? Make the most of it with these stylish organizers that won’t break the bank and will make your space feel much bigger (and more useful!). Wall-mounted racks that free up precious counter space and hanging baskets that open up fridge space are a tiny kitchen's best friends. We’ve listed some of our favorites below! Give Hive Helper a call for an organization consultation, we would love to help you find more space in your home!
Hang What You Can
Kitchen wall space can be used for hanging rails with hooks for utensils, additional shelving, or a magnetic knife strip, which can help free up drawer and counter space. If you have high ceilings, consider installing a hanging utensil & pot rack—this makes cookware easy to access and creates an impressive looking display.
Toss The Single-Function Gadgets.
Sort through your gadgets and make sure any single-task items you keep are truly necessary.
Make Good Use Of The Space Within Cabinets.
Stacking bins and shelf risers can help optimize available space within cabinets. There's also a surprising amount of usable real estate inside all of your cabinet doors: Consider mounting vertical racks to store everything from pot lids to cleaning supplies.
Use Magnetized Everything.
The front and sides of your refrigerator are a perfect spot to store items that you might reach for often, like kitchen timers, measuring spoons, bottle openers, and wine keys. This magnetic rack is designed to store spices, and this one sticks to the fridge to hold paper towels, a dishcloth, oven mitts, and other odds and ends.
Add Counter Space With A Kitchen Cart.
A kitchen cart on wheels with a butcher block top can act as a cutting board while you cook, and the shelves underneath can provide additional storage for small appliances. Use it to store dry pantry items in acrylic canisters, or any items that don’t fit in your existing cabinets and drawers.
Re-Evaluate Large Kitchen Appliances.
Do you actually need a juicer or stand mixer? How many times a week do you actually use your microwave? If you do use them, make sure they’re the right size for you and take up the least amount of space possible. For items that only get occasional use, store them out of sight, or consider selling or donating them.
