Though you can get it for cheap at your local hardware store, pegboard has a life beyond your garage. Paint a sheet white and use it to show off some of your prettiest kitchen tools\u2014including cutting boards, pans and bakeware. (Bonus point: It\u2019ll help free up space in your cabinets.)\n
\n
The spot underneath your sink is one of the most under-appreciated areas in the kitchen. Take advantage of that treasure trove of unused space by installing this\u00a0two-tier sliding organizer\u00a0($90) to hold cleaning supplies. We love how it screws right into a cabinet base, making it much more stable than similar sliding storage units.\n Get the convenience of a spice rack without cluttering your shelves with this\u00a0tiered spice organizer\u00a0($9) that fits into your drawers. Spices lay flat, so you\u2019ll be able to reach for that garlic powder without toppling the rest of your seasonings.\n \n I\u2019m going to take a wild guess: You\u2019re frustrated with the way you\u2019re currently storing the lids for your cookware. This\u00a0roll-out lid holder\u00a0($50)\u00a0is the answer.\u00a0Vertical dividers prop lids on their sides, freeing up extra space in kitchen cabinets. Plus, the organizer extends forward so you won\u2019t find yourself digging in the back.\n \n We\u2019re not sure why she\u2019s dubbed \u201clazy\u201d because this rotating organizer is one of the hardest workers in our pantry. Give her a twirl and the items once pushed to the back of your cabinet are front and center.\n \n Big bulky knife blocks should be a thing of the past. Not only do they take up valuable counter space, but they can also collect some pretty icky bacteria, too.\n \n Ditch the flimsy packaging and save space with a set of our Test Kitchen\u2019s favorite food storage containers. Each container is built with an airtight seal ensuring your dry goods don\u2019t go stale.\n \n When your storage is out on display, plastic bins just won\u2019t cut it. Try something more decorative like a basket to hold produce, mail or even a few cookbooks. These\u00a0rattan baskets\u00a0have flat backs, that are ideal for hanging on the back of a door or wall.\n \n Tall cabinet shelving can leave extra empty space ripe for the taking. Install an\u00a0under-the-shelf basket\u00a0($16) to hold items like plates, mugs, linens or ramekins.\n Heads up, home cooks! This\u00a0three-in-one device\u00a0($15) makes it easy to have aluminum foil, plastic wrap and paper towels at the ready. With integrated sliding cutting blades, you\u2019ll not have to fuss with the flimsy razors that come on traditional packaging. Plus, the unit mounts securely to your wall.\n The inside of a cabinet door is the perfect place to store small slender items. This extra thin\u00a0cutting board set\u00a0($20) comes with a storage unit that sticks right onto your door, keeping prep boards out of sight and out of mind\u2014until, of course, you need them.\n Tea enthusiasts, listen up! Flimsy cardboard tea packaging can take up a ton of space. Instead, organize your chamomiles, Earl Greys, herbals and more in\u00a0this nifty tea stand. The organizer fits almost 100 tea bags and makes a neat caddy for hosting, too.\n The stacked design of this\u00a0utensil holder\u00a0($20) practically doubles the space in your kitchen drawer. Forks, knives and spoons rest at an angle, creating more space for larger items like whisks and spatulas.\n Wine enthusiasts may be familiar with the 2004 flick\u00a0Sideways\u2014but have you ever heard of upside-down? This\u00a0hanging wineglass holder attaches underneath your cabinet storing your glasses stem-side-up. Plus, you\u2019ll have easy access when you uncork that next bottle of Chardonnay.\n Tired of produce piling up in the fridge? This\u00a0pull-out storage bin\u00a0makes chaotic, disorganized fridges a thing of the past. Simply snap the railing system onto a shelf and you\u2019re good to go.\n Have a small kitchen? We have a product for you. This\u00a0over-the-door paper towel holder\u00a0($10) hides your quilted rolls in any cabinet, giving you back precious countertop space.\n Lazy Susans aren\u2019t just great for pantry organization\u2014they work wonders in your fridge, too. Add one to any shelf to corral all of your jams, mustards, pickles and sauces.\n Common office supplies can double as kitchen organizers, too. A simple magazine holder, for instance, can help tidy up cleaning supplies and other bits and bobs around the kitchen.\u00a0Get a pack of 12 here. We particularly like storing tall items like plastic wrap, parchment paper and aluminum foil in one of these!\n source: tasteofhome\n \n \n \n \n \n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" By Nicole Doster Hang a Pegboard Though you can get it for cheap at your local hardware store, pegboard has a life beyond your garage.
