Storage and organization are aspects you can’t overlook when remodeling your kitchen. Save yourself the trouble of dealing with a cluttered kitchen or the frustration of running out of space. Luckily, with some help and creativity, you can transform your space into one that maximizes storage and organization. If you need some inspiration, don’t worry, we have you covered with these stylish kitchen storage hacks!
Pull Out Drawers
Pull-out drawers are a game-changer when it comes to the elimination of clutter. These drawers within your cabinetry allow for increased accessibility and storage without compromising your needs and aesthetics. Customize your drawers to your needs: you can have compartments for larger items like pots and pans, keep bulky items, like trash cans, hidden and keep smaller essentials, like spices and utensils, neatly organized. Overall, a great solution for more storage and messy countertops.
Built-in Utensil Drawers
Disorganized utensils can quickly turn into a storage nightmare. However, you can save yourself the trouble by incorporating built-in utensil storage into your cabinetry. Save yourself counter and drawer space by adding pull-out utensil bins for larger items like spatulas and related tools. For smaller items like silverware, you can insert a custom organizer tray to make the inside of your drawer more visually appealing.
Drawer Peg System
Maximize the functionality of your drawers by implementing a peg system. This is a board with evenly distributed holes for pegs. This goes inside a drawer and has an adjustable design that lets you create the perfect-sized compartments to keep your dishes and cookware organized and secured. Therefore, instead of having your dishes and cookware sliding around in your drawers, you have them placed in neat sections. This is an effortless way to make the most of your drawer space.
Walk-in Pantry
If you have the space for a walk-in pantry, you’ll want to consider this addition. A customized walk-in pantry allows for a spacious and organized storage solution for items that don’t necessarily need to clutter up your kitchen. From dry foods to containers and other kitchen essentials, a walk-in pantry offers the perfect spot to keep everything neatly in place.
Lazy Susans
Lazy susans, or turn-table shelving, make another excellent custom addition to any messy cabinet — most notably used for blind corner cabinets. With their rotating design, these shelves offer a smart solution for maximizing storage efficiency in hard-to-reach corners. This type of shelving allows for more efficient storage within these pesky sections with limited accessibility.
Integrated Appliances into Island
Another stylish and efficient storage hack is incorporating appliances into your island. Maximize your counter space while also keeping your appliances easily accessible. You can add a sleek and modern touch to your kitchen by customizing your island with convenient appliance combinations to suit your needs. For example, add a sink and dishwasher combo for an efficient dishwashing experience, or incorporate a built-in microwave and cooktop and create a functional culinary hub. This kitchen storage upgrade blends innovation and convenience.
Built-in Wine Storage
For all you wine and spirit enthusiasts, add an elevated touch to your bar/kitchen by incorporating built-in storage. Add a built-in wine fridge or a traditional rack — both could be fully customized to coincide with the room’s design. Say goodbye to improperly stored beverages with this upgrade!
