Organizing Small Kitchens and Bathrooms

Are you always struggling to find more space in your small kitchen or bathroom? If you own an older home or are renting, it can always be a challenge to get the space you need. These tips will help you think ‘bigger’ for your next kitchen or bathroom renovation.

 In your kitchen there is lots of produce that doesn’t need to be refrigerated, but that doesn’t mean they need to take up precious countertop space. Installing a deep drawer lined with baskets or plastic bins will not only help this produce stay out of the way, the dark space will keep them fresh longer. These will also work great in your bathroom too keep all of your toiletries, makeup and hair products neatly organized and not floating around bigger drawers.

 Pots and pans are clunky, they always create big noise when searching for the right one, and of course, they take up a lot of space. Pot racks are still a popular way to solve this and there are many different styles to choose from. If the traditional one hanging from the ceiling won’t work for your space, try looking for a wall-mounted rack, or even one that can be mounted on a pantry door or cupboard.

A cabinet or shelving above the toilet is always a handy place to keep medicines or small toiletries. Just don’t forget to close the lid on toilet before your start rummaging around in there!

 These are just a few of the many different ways to create more space when redesigning your kitchen or bathroom. Always remember to leave no space wasted and think outside the ‘box’.
