Your kitchen is the room where creativity and food come together. It should, therefore, be organized and personalized to increase your efficiency and make you feel more comfortable with your surroundings. If you are searching for inspiration for organization, here are some cool storage ideas for your kitchen.
Repurpose Office Organizers
If you have a small kitchen with limited cupboard space canned goods can be difficult to keep organized.Repurpose a metal magazine holder, for a quick and easy way to neatly organize your canned goods. The vertical position of the cans will make it easier to see what you have, and using multiple holders will allow you to sort your goods. Magazine holders are also an excellent way to store your plastic wrap, tin foil, and sandwich bags under the sink. Simply use command strips and attach the magazine holder to the inside of the cabinet door.
Use a CD Rack for Tupperware Lids
CD racks are no longer required for peoples’ collections so they sit in thrift stores, or are thrown away. Before you discard yours, consider repurposing it. Tupperware lids are difficult to organize and can be a major cause for frustration in the kitchen, but with an old CD rack, organizing the lids is simple. Just turn the rack on its side, and stow it away in the cupboard. Not only will this storage solution save you time in the morning when packing your lunch, but it will also make your kitchen look neater and tidier.
Organize Your Water Bottles and Travel Mugs
Make storing your water bottles and thermoses an easy task, and use a wine rack in one of your cupboards to neatly store your favourite bottles. The wine rack will prevent them from rolling around, or falling out of the cupboard, and will maintain the organization of your storage.
Rethink Tension Rods
The tension rod is often associated with a shower curtain, but it can also be used as a creative storage solution in the kitchen. When used under the sink, it is the perfect way to store cleaning products. Multiple tension rods installed in cupboards make organizing cookie sheets and cutting boards simple. Depending on your needs, the tension rod could be a perfect way to get your kitchen organized.
Use the Side of Your Fridge
The side of your fridge is a large space perfect for storing smaller items that would get lost in a drawer or cupboard. Instead of throwing items like oven mitts and scissors in a drawer, try a magnetic organizer like the one in the photo, or repurpose locker organizers. Whether it is spices, pens and pencils, or plastic wrap, a magnetic organizer will save space in your cupboards, and keep your kitchen organized.
Organizing your kitchen in a cool way is simple if you rethink items, and use your imagination. These tips will help you have the coolest looking, organized kitchen your friends and family have ever seen. For more ideas about cool ways to organize your kitchen visit the Medallion Blog.
