- Utilize wall space: Install floating shelves or wall-mounted pot racks to create more storage space.
- Use under-cabinet storage: Install hooks or racks under the cabinets to hang utensils or pots and pans.
- Make use of corner space: Install a lazy susan or a pull-out corner cabinet to make use of difficult-to-reach corner space.
- Use vertical dividers: Use vertical dividers to organize your cabinets and pantry.
- Use the back of the cabinet and pantry doors: Install hooks or racks on the back of cabinet and pantry doors to hang utensils or spice racks.
- Invest in stackable or nesting cookware: This will take up less space than traditional pots and pans.
- Be mindful of what you bring: Be selective about what you bring into your kitchen and consider getting rid of items you no longer need or use.
- Use the space above the refrigerator: Install shelving or a cabinet above the refrigerator to create additional storage space.
- Utilize the space above the sink: Install a shelf or a window sill to create more storage for kitchen essentials.
- Use multi-functional furniture: Use a kitchen island, or a cart with wheels, it can also be used for storage and extra counter space.
