From putting away groceries to cooking meals, it can be difficult to perform all sorts of basic tasks in a confined kitchen. Luckily, investing in a few simple kitchen remodeling projects will help maximize space. Below are tips to make the room more functional and comfortable for the household.  

How to Create More Space in Small Kitchens

1. Hang Cooking Utensils on Hooks 

If cookware utensils are packed in drawers, consider placing them on hooks instead. By hanging some items, you’ll have more room in drawers to put odds and ends that are currently taking up counter space. Place the pegs on the sides or doors of cabinets—or on the backsplash near the sink—for easy access. 

2. Install Cabinets With Deep Compartments 

If pots and pans are cluttering surfaces, install kitchen cabinets with deep drawers. The compartments are large enough to hold bulky cookware, small appliances, and other items that often get in the way. If you’re running out of room in cupboards, you can also put sealed food containers in the cabinets for extra pantry storage.  

3. Place Shelves on Empty Walls

Instead of placing a picture or clock on a wall, make the most out of the empty space by installing a few shelves. The fixtures can hold cookbooks, dishware, and any items without a permanent home. A kitchen remodeling contractor will recommend durable materials that won’t buckle under the strain of holding lots of items.
