In a small kitchen, it's often hard to find lots of places where you can store your appliances.
But even if you have a small kitchen, you can still find enough storage space for everything you need - just be more creative!
Here are a few tips that might help you.
Use Vertical Space
Maximize vertical storage by installing shelves or hanging racks on the walls.
This allows you to store appliances like blenders, mixers, or toasters off the countertop and utilize the wall space instead.
Utilize Cabinet Space
Use the cabinets efficiently by incorporating shelves or sliding organizers.
Stack smaller appliances neatly on these shelves to make the most of the available space.
Drawer Dividers
Utilize drawer space by using dividers to separate and organize smaller appliances such as handheld mixers, can openers, or measuring cups.
This keeps them easily accessible and avoids clutter.
Under Cabinet Storage
Install hooks or racks underneath the cabinets to hang lightweight appliances like coffee makers or mugs.
This frees up valuable counter space while keeping them within reach.
Rolling Carts or Trolleys
Consider using portable rolling carts or trolleys with shelves to store appliances.
They can be moved around as needed and provide extra storage space in a compact manner.
Utilize Oven Space
If your oven is not in use, utilize the oven for storage.
Make sure the oven is completely cool and store appliances that are heat-resistant and safe to keep inside.
Multi-purpose Appliances
Opt for appliances that serve multiple functions, such as a toaster oven that can also bake or a blender that can be used as a food processor.
This reduces the number of appliances you need to store.
Store Beyond the Kitchen
If possible, store less frequently used appliances in other areas of your home, such as a pantry, closet, or garage.
This frees up space in the kitchen for the appliances you use regularly.
