Maximizing your space efficiency

Storage space is a precious thing. We all have too much stuff and not enough space to store it. It is important to maximize your space efficiency.  Here a few tips & tricks.

1.      Pullouts-being able to pull out what is inside a cabinet and see it clearly is by far a better use of space than the unknown dark recessed of a cabinet.

2.      Cabinets to the ceiling-instead of having a soffit or putting decorative things on top, extend your cabinets up to the ceiling and give yourself another shelf or two. You also cut down on the amount of cleaning you have to do. 

3.      Miniature turntables-found at Target or the Container Store, these small plastic turntables allow you to easily organize and access items inside your cabinets. I love this for spices, especially!

4.      Tray dividers-standing cookie sheets, baking pans and cutting boards up is a far better use of space than stacking them inside a cabinet.

5.      Cabinets under the overhang-instead of having a blank panel on the backside of your island, do you have room for some shallow storage cabinets?
