admin — Thu, 11 Mar 2010 17:16:58 +0000

Kitchen storage is one thing most of us need more of. While appliances are getting larger every year (and taking up our counter space as well as our cupboard space) our kitchens are remaining the same size. Vertical kitchen storage saves space, fits in anyone’s kitchen and is ideal for baking pans.

If you are one of those people who loves to spend time cooking and baking, chances are that you have some large appliances taking up valuable space. Appliances such as mixers and pasta makers are great to have but take up a lot of space. Even if you do not cook, and bake only during the holidays, you probably have a good-sized coffee-maker and microwave using up space. What can you do with all that bake-ware? I am talking about cookie sheets, cupcake pans, cake pans and muffin tins. Install some vertical kitchen storage.

A wire baking tray cabinet rack is inexpensive and holds your bake-ware in an upright position for easy storing, viewing and retrieving. No longer will you have to take six other things out just to get to the cookie sheet at the bottom. This fits into your cabinet and holds four items within 2 inch slots that are coated with vinyl to protect your bake-ware. It is so spacious that it will even hold cake pans and muffin tins. Priced higher, is a roll-out version that installs easily into most cabinets and rolls out sideways. This is also pretty spacious and can hold a variety of bake-ware. Pull it out and see what you have at a glance; no more searching or taking out an entire shelf of bake-ware for the one item you need.

Storage ideas for bake-ware are available in many styles today. There are vertical kitchen storage units available to suit any needs.

Creative Kitchen Storage Solutions for Small Kitchens

admin — Fri, 29 Jan 2010 12:24:57 +0000

There is always going to be limited space in the smaller kitchens of the world; and yet, somehow some areas of these kitchens are still not being utilized properly, making everything seem smaller than it already is. Before calculating how long it might take to save the money to blast down a wall, realize that the situation is not hopeless. There are many solutions to be found in order to better organize your small kitchen, and the process could even become an adventure. Below are just a few creative kitchen storage solutions for small kitchens.

If there are any appliances or cooking ware that aren’t being used on a frequent basis, transfer them to another storage area in another part of the home. For instance, if there is a special set of dishes you use for holidays and other special occasions, wrap them up safely and put them in a closet for later. This will leave a lot more room overall.

Kitchen cabinets and drawers are only so big, so only so much can be kept in them. Using standard white kitchen cabinets organizers to increase your space vertically will allow you to hold more in each cabinet. You might also want to consider what you could put on the counters to free up that space. What appliances or other items do you use so much that it warrants keeping them out in the open for easy reach? Just make sure to leave enough room to be able to actually use what is left of the counter space with comfort and ease.

Don’t forget that any walls could be used as additional storage areas. Attach hangers and hooks for pots and pans, oven mitts, and towels, or whatever else you can think of. Using vertical space is a great way to increase your kitchen storage.

Does your kitchen have a bar area? Instead of cramming as many bar stools as you can in the area, have some shelving installed. Use it for canned goods, storage containers, bowls, cookbooks, anything you don’t mind being hidden from plain sight.

Having a small kitchen does not mean having to live in cramped and messy conditions. These are only the start for creative kitchen storage solutions for small kitchens, but are certainly enough to make your space begin to live up to its full potential.

Think Vertical When Choosing Kitchen Storage Accessories

admin — Thu, 28 Jan 2010 22:06:12 +0000

Unless a complete kitchen remodel is in your near future you are probably considering adding more kitchen storage. Think vertical when choosing kitchen storage accessories. To save on floor and counter space there is only one direction to go and that is up. There is a plethora of storage solutions that not only give needed storage but also save on space. A variety of vertical storage options can be combined to handle nearly every storage dilemma you may have. Listed here are but a few of the many options available on the market today.

Pots and Pans
Pots and pans never fit in the cabinets. You open the cabinet door and out pours all the baking dishes, frying pans, lids and cookie sheets onto the floor. Heaven forbid someone slips and falls during this avalanche of cookware. The simple solution: vertical storage bins in the cabinet. Store all of your flat pans, frying pans and lids up on their sides in these wonderful space saving bins.

Another option is a door mounted vertical lid rack. These racks mount inside a cabinet door and are usually made of thick wire. They neatly hold pan lids for easy access on the inside of the door to the pan cabinet.

Large Platters and Serving Trays
Platters and serving trays are never easy to store. All the different shapes and sizes make it impossible to stack them together on a shelf. The solution here is a deep pull out drawer with vertical dividers. The trays and platters can be easily and conveniently stored away. This is also a great place to place the grilling utensils when not in use.

Dishes
Vertical dish storage has made a come-back in recent years. Not only is this system a handy way to store plates and bowls but it is also considered quite trendy right now. This system stores plates or bowls on their sides in little vertical slots.

No matter what kitchen storage needs you have there is a storage system out there that will fit the bill.

Eco-Friendly Kitchen Storage Ideas

admin — Thu, 28 Jan 2010 20:23:58 +0000

In today’s world, finding both affordable and eco-friendly kitchen storage ideas and solutions has never been easier! Companies are beginning to realize how important being environmentally conscious is to consumers and are putting out great new products to meet that demand. So if you’re looking for crafty ways to organize your kitchen and go green at the same time, you’ve got tons of great options to choose from.

Add some serious extra storage to your kitchen by adding a hutch or china cabinet. These beautiful, yet functional storage pieces offer plenty of room for all of your things as well as enhance your decor. Instead of purchasing a new piece, shop thrift store and consignment shops. Find a hutch that you find structurally sound and attractive. If the color doesn’t work for you, sand it down and paint it with low VOC paint. If you’d rather have something new, purchase a hutch that is made of reclaimed and recycled materials. There are many beautiful pieces of furniture available today that are made of recycled materials.

Use multi-purpose kitchen products and save space. Whenever you can buy one product that does multiple things, you’re eliminating clutter in your kitchen. For instance, instead of having a steamer and a strainer, buy a steam and strain combo. Buying multi-purpose pots, pans, small appliances and other kitchen accessories will free up an enormous amount of space in your kitchen and provide you with more storage room for other things.

Dry your dishes with a hanging dish rack. Many people use dish racks to air dry their dishes instead of wasting power with the dry cycle on their dishwashers. This saves both energy and money. Unfortunately, traditional dish racks can take up a large amount of counter space. Try a hanging dish rack instead. Hanging racks can be hung on any wall easily and are a great eco-friendly way to store and dry your dishes.

Add an eco-friendly wine rack to your kitchen to store your wine responsibly. There are dozens of very attractive wine racks on the market today that are made with environmentally conscious materials. If you don’t drink wine, consider using a wine rack to store cooking oils, vinegar and other bottled kitchen items. Many eco-friendly kitchen storage products can be used for multiple purposes to fit in with almost anyone’s lifestyle.
