Get the inside story on kitchen cabinet organization


As someone who spends a great deal of time doing whatever it takes to achieve culinary supremacy, with disastrous consequences, I might add, I boast a nuanced understanding of the bane of every modern kitchen cabinet organization.

In most cases, choosing the right type of kitchen cabinets is often governed by amorphous generalizations. But not anymore. Here are some tips to help you make the perfect choice every time:

  • It is important to determine the type of space that is required. If you’re the type to splurge at the grocery store every weekend, an investment in large pantry cabinets and kitchen storage cabinets is recommended.
  • A kitchen remodeling project is the perfect hub for cabinet design innovations.
  • Make sure there is enough storage space for trash cans and recyclables.
  • Kitchen cabinet designs should have adequate provisions for appliances that are likely to be installed in the space in the future.
  • If you’re lucky enough to have family or friends share the colossal responsibility of cooking, then your cabinet design shouldn’t act as a party popper.

judicious use of space

It’s just not the design of the cabinet that can create a lot of anxiety. There are many times when the judicious use of space seems like a distant dream. Here are some tips that bridge the gap between reality and fantasy:

  • Get two shelves instead of one by using a freestanding stacking shelf.
  • Clear containers and labels ensure easy access, every time.
  • Invest in shelves that store all the pots and pans along with their lids.
  • Extendable shelves are ideal for storing all canned foods.
  • A spice rack located away from the cooking surface ensures all your spices are at their tempting best.
  • A door rack is a great way to store all your dry foods, canned goods, and cleaning supplies. You’ll be amazed at how sliding drawers provide such a durable solution to massive cabinets that remain largely unused.

So, are you convinced that storage space doesn’t necessarily have to be the Achilles’ heel of your workspace?
