Having a clean home makes you more productive and calm. But getting every bit of space used can be hard, especially in the kitchen.
From a very young age, my mother taught me how to be organized. One useful thing I learned was how to make the most of the small cabinets above freezers. At first glance, these spaces don’t seem important, but they have hidden promise.
These small cabinets aren’t great for storing things that you use often or that are big. What can you put there then?
Useful ways to store things
Gadgets Not Often Used
Free up space in the main storage by putting away food mixers, blenders, and waffle makers.
Canned foods and things you need to bake
Great for baking tools and canned goods that can be kept for a long time.
Collection of Cookbooks
Cookbooks should be kept in order and out of the way.
Things from the pantry and spices
Put pantry items and spices that don’t go bad quickly in packages with labels.
Essentials for the home
Hold a lot of cooking towels and other home goods.
Fine china and items for special events
Keep fine china and things for special occasions safe so they don’t get broken.
Take care of safety
When you open these cabinets, be careful. Store heavy things on strong stools or stepladders and don’t put heat-sensitive things away.
If you use these creative storage ideas, you’ll be able to find your kitchen’s secret potential and keep it clean, organized, and fun.
