How to unload the worktop, we will still talk, but you can act from nasty. For example, add heads retractable panel instead of one thing upper boxes.

The space of 10-15 centimeters height is suitable for storing wide utensils ( festive dish, Fighting, massive covers) or it will be useful to your domestic pets.

Cups and plates are customary to put the headset in the upper sections, and the pans are in the bottom. This is a proven over the years, but not the only possible storage scenario. Look at how many cups and glasses are placed in a conventional drawer under the working surface. At the same time, all items in sight - you no longer have to get up on the tiptoe and painfully look for a favorite cup in dark bowels of the suspended cabinet.

4. What is under your sink?

Let's try to guess: pipes, garbage bucket and an ominous warehouse of household chemicals. Given the depth of the kitchen headset, you most likely forgot to be hidden by the wall, not to mention the way to climb the sink with your head and make cleaning in the corners. The simplest retractable box with low walls comes to the rescue, as in the photo. The price of components - both for two lunch in a cafe plus minimum labor costs.

Doors of the cabinet not only the barrier for dust, but also the useful storage area. Mount the internal shelves to the depth of the CO jar, and you will no longer have to wonder how it is convenient to arrange kitchen trivia.

Half, noise and whims, especially if there are many of them, are not always placed in a horizontal box. Exit - to organize storage vertically. It is suitable for any narrow section of the headset, such as a bottle, if it is for you to anything. To turn a narrow box to a vertical storage system, it is enough to cut in any panel of the circle on the diameter of glasses. So the kitchen utensils will be at hand, and the glasses will easily take out and wash if necessary.

Board with holes "like in a garage" or metal grid - quite worthy decorative elementif it is correct to file it. Feel free to paint the board in the tint of the kitchen and hang it on the apron or the stenitude, which will be found even in the tiny room itself. Storage opportunities at such a board are almost limitless: a pair of metal hooks from the store for the house, and you can raise a frying pan, tacks and even a section for a sponge - what is enough fantasy.

One more useful idea With a perforated board - to lay it inside a deep drawer and add vertical slats under the size of the dishes. Now here you can store not only the pans, but also ceramics: plates and saucers do not break up, even if you sharply slam the box.

Separate seasonings on the table top - it means to subscribe to the eternal mess: banks will fall from any random movement, and to make it elementary, it will have to shift the entire "battery" to a safe distance. It is much easier to fix them under the top line of kitchen cabinets: stick the lids and unscrew the cans themselves.

Cookinists with experience advise: Before starting to cook, get not only ingredients, but also all the necessary dishes. But no matter how we tried to follow the smart recommendations, it is sure to turn out that right now you need a completely different knife and it lies in the box where you don't want to climb dirty hands.

If the tabletop material allows you to make feeds in it. To such a storage system, small children will not be completely distinguished, and the knives will always be ready. If the countertop does not succumb to processing, you can provide a special wooden insert for the knives.

If the refrigerator is not embedded in the general system of cabinets, then the space above it is most likely empty and this is a crime against ergonomics. Between the refrigerator and the ceiling, you can mount a full-fledged mezzanine with closed shelves or open sections for bottles, as in our example.

In the kitchen, even if it is not very small, always lacking storage space. After all, I want to fit and dishes, and products, and useful devicesYes, and so that this does not cause a feeling of disorder.

QuarterGog gathered the most useful for you, in our opinion, ideas for storage in the kitchen.

Place for covers

Often, it is precisely the lids that take an important space in the kitchen: either ineffectively occupy the whole box, or do not allow storing pan one in another. Try to organize a seat for the covers on the kitchen box. For this, a small railing, a towel rack or even hooks on velcro are suitable.



You can store the covers compactly and inside the drawer on the stands for logs.


Storage of cleaning products

Cleaning products are comfortable to store under the sink, things for the nose on the crossbar. In addition, you can use multi-tiered baskets and retractable designs, light bottles and sponges can be stored on the door.


Cutting Place

Cutting boards can be stored using an office organiser for folders. Vertical takes less space, but also the horizontal will suit - from above it will be possible to put something.

Demandors for boards can be delivered inside the kitchen box.


If there are no places in the boxes, hang on the railing boards or is used to accommodate the sideways of the kitchen headset.


And, again, do not forget about the shelves on the doors.


If you do not have enough space for cutting in the preparation of complex dishes, a very convenient solution will be a retractable board. An easier option is to put an ordinary board on top of the extended drawer.


Shelf from the old box

If you change the kitchen, do not throw out old boxes, they will come in handy. Of these, you can make the shelves for dishes: mounted or standing on the table top.


Storage of spices and bulk products

If the products are stored not in the same bags that are sold, and in special jars, the kitchen will look more careful, and you will find the right faster. Jars can be bought or made independently.

From the libened glass containers it is easy to make jars for spices. Cut from the package the name of the spice and stick it with a scotch for a new product.


Such jars to save space can be stored not in the closet, but under it. That is, we glue the cover to the lower surface of the upper kitchen cabinets, and we screw the jar itself to the lid.

Convenient storage of spaghetti can be provided with two plastic bottles. Cut the lower part from them and fir the edge with scissors.
