Sneaky Ways to Add Storage Space to Your Kitchen

If you’re like most of us, you’re always looking for ways to add more storage space to your kitchen. No matter how creative you get, it feels like you run out of cupboard space and resort to living with a messy kitchen. But, with these sneaky tips you can add some simple storage solutions that let you take advantage of things you already have in your kitchen.

Get more out of Cupboard Doors

You are using your cupboards to the max, but are you using the space behind the doors? Try installing a spice rack, paper tray for aluminum foil and plastic wrap or even some small towel racks to hold pot and pan lids.

Use Wall Space to your Advantage

Don’t let wall space go to waste. An easy way to turn it into storage space is to add a pegboard and some hooks to hang cooking utensils, gadgets and even small pots or pans. This can give your kitchen a new look and even add an element of design.

Give your Pantry a Makeover

Spend an afternoon cleaning out your pantry and adding things like bins, baskets, shelf racks and other organizers to take advantage of the shelf space you do have. You’ll be amazed at how much space you can add with this simple tip.

Use Wasted Cupboards

Use that cupboard under the sink or other odd cupboards to store things like cleaning products, garbage bags and paper towels. Just add some shelves or pullout units to make them more functional. Before you do this, check for leaks and contact Seaford plumbers who specialize in leak detection and repair to make sure your stuff stays dry!

Don't Discount Counter Space

An old but valuable trick is to add jars and knife stands to your counter to make room in drawers for other things. You can also keep your toaster or mixer here to free up cupboard space. Do this sparingly to avoid clutter, but use this tip to get more storage space in an instant.
