Tips for Getting Smart About Small Kitchen Storage

Use The Inside Of Your Cabinet Doors

It can be easy to overlook the inside surface of your cabinet doors as possible storage areas. But you can try hanging large spoons, knives, or even mounting a spice rack in this area. Every door is an opportunity to get creative with hooks and small shelves. Just make sure you can still close the cabinet door when you’re done.

Hang Whatever You Can

You can use everything from ceiling mounted structures to hooks on the wall. You can also put up a pegboard and hang things from your walls. Have cups with handles? Try hanging them inside your cabinets.

Add Shelving Everywhere

Consider every open wall space as an opportunity to add some shelves. Adding shelves will give you easily accessible storage, so try to use them for ingredients or tools you reach for often. You can also try adding additional shelves, or even roll-out shelves, to your cabinets to make sure you’re using every square inch.
