Thoughtful storage options can make your kitchen cabinets and drawers more functional and improve the day-to-day experience in your new kitchen. But you want to strike a balance between having designated spots for what you need, and also flexibility to maintain your space and adjust it over time.
Some things might look “cool,” but might not be worth it within your budget if you would not get a lot of use out of it.
There’s a storage solution for literally everything, but think about the following common items:
- Pots and Pans (including lids and oversized/awkward-sized items)
- Dinnerware (including everyday and specialty)
- Utensils (including everyday and specialty)
- Garbage and recycling
- Spices
- Food and pantry items
- Cleaning Supplies
- Wine/Liquor and Barware
- Things you would like to be displayed vs. hidden away
Then take a look at these photos of storage ideas for your kitchen. What would make your life easier and more organized?
