The kitchen is one of the most commonly occupied areas inside our homes. However, not all kitchens have ample space and moving areas, thus requiring homeowners to have smart solutions to storage and space problems.
Country Living enumerated some clever ideas in keeping kitchens clean and organized. Trash can troubles can be avoided if it is strategically placed inside a pull-out storage or an island or cabinet. It also adds extra floor space once the trash bin is kept at bay.
Keys can also be hidden at the back of picture frames attached to your kitchen walls, providing you a secret place where you can organize and hide house keys and car keys from underage kids. Creating more counter space is also much easier when you have storage spaces or bins that can be stacked. Doing so allows you to go vertically, saving you a lot of space in the process.
Good Housekeeping, on the other hand, mentioned few narrow spaces that can be used as storage areas inside your kitchen. The area in between your refrigerator and a cabinet can be transformed into a narrow pull-out cabinet where you can stack spices, canned goods and condiments. Plastics can also be dumped inside a tissue box.
The sink space can also be utilized by adding vertical storage areas in it where you can keep your usual dishwashing necessities and soaps.
A few smart storage pieces can really do wonders for your kitchen. This also makes your kitchen area an even more enticing place to cook for your family.
