Want your kitchen to run like a well-oiled machine? Then you need to get organized! There are many parts that come into play in the busiest room of the home, including overlooked spaces like your cabinets and drawers. Learn how to maximize space, and transform your kitchen into an efficient, functional space, with the help of these smart storage solutions from Willow Lane Cabinetry.
Kitchen Cabinets
Most kitchen cabinets contain adjustable shelves that can be reconfigured, based on need. Make the most of the vertical space you have by moving shelves up or down to fit short items like dishes and bowls, or tall items like glassware and cake stands. Be sure to group like items together, such as baking pans stacked neatly in tray dividers, or cookware in a two-tier organizer.
Your cabinet doors are valuable real estate. Don’t let it go to waste. Instead, install a door-mounted cutting board, a door-mounted spice rack, or a vertical door rack for housing foil, plastic wrap, and zip-top baggies.
If you’re lucky enough to be undertaking a kitchen remodel, consider incorporating shelves in your kitchen island for cookbooks, or a built-in wine rack, plus roll out trays, Lazy Susan inserts, and pull out filler organizers that take advantage of every inch of your cabinetry. You could even add a double pull out waste container to hide unsightly trash and recyclables behind base cabinet doors.
Drawers
Drawers tend to become the catchall of the kitchen, where utensils and other items become a jumbled mess, and it’s impossible to find what you need without doing a bit of digging. Don’t get caught in this vicious cycle. Simply install drawer dividers to keep like items tidy and easily accessible.
A trimmable cutlery tray is ideal for keeping your forks, spoons, and butter knives separate, while a trimmable utility tray is suited for organizing larger utensils like whisks and spatulas. Safely store knives inside a drawer with a trimmable knife block. Not only does it hold more knives than a traditional knife block, but it also keeps your countertops free of clutter, and fits in any size drawer.
