Kitchen is the most important place in our homes. The
tidy, well organized kitchen corresponds to an organized person. At times, we
feel that our kitchen in tiny. We don’t have enough space for preparing dinner
especially when we have invited our friends and if we make it somehow; we don’t
feel good while washing dishes in tiny kitchen. We think again and again that
we should have rendered more space to it while our kitchen has enough area.
Then what is the reason we think it is tiny? In fact, your kitchen not tiny but
it is not well organized. Here are some tips to make your kitchen appealing and
more practical by saving space.
1.
Get the Kitchen Floor Uninterrupted
Getting as many things off the floor as you can, makes
to feel the kitchen is larger. Making
things disappear helps the eyes read the space is larger giving a spacious vibe.
Develop a habit of keep things in cabinets and shelves rather than on floor.
2.
Use the Space on the Walls
Sometimes the cabinets and shelves do not feel
sufficient to keep pans and utensils. What I experience is that utensils take
lots of space when piles up in cabinets. The best way to store utensils and
pans is to hang
on the walls. But don’t mess the wall. Rather put up
the hooks in a classy way (you may make wavy effect by hanging utensils of same
size). You can also install a magnetic knife rack.
3.
Slimmer Lower Cabinets
Lower cabinets are the must part of every kitchen
and we all prefer broad lower cabinets. This is a way to devastate kitchen
space. Using slimmer lower cabinets save s plenty of the space making it open a
bit.
4.
Install Single Bowl Sink
Putting in a single bowl sink saves lots of space in
the kitchen. Installing double bowl sink makes easy to put dishes in but makes
your kitchen feeling contracted.
5.
Choose a Compact Dishwasher
A compact dishwasher is another good option for
saving kitchen space. A compact dishwasher also uses less electricity and water
than a full size corresponding dishwasher.
6.
Use Smart Kitchen Appliances
Another way to save space in your kitchen is to use
smart appliances for cooking, frying and extracting purposes. The technology is
making things smarter not only in the sense of speed and power but also in
area. Some years back, the juice extractors used to take as much space as for
two extractors of these days. We used to have pans of different sizes for
frying different foods, but now the stunning air fryers are used instead.
Saving lots of space in your kitchen by using these smart appliances like the best
air fryers for frying everything you want.
7.
Use Folding Dining Tables
Exploit folding dining tables and hiding them after
using is a good way to make space in kitchen. A thin dining table can be folded down to perch
between a wall of cabinets and a separate bar. If you don’t have folding dining
table then no there is setback. Hide the chairs and stools under your plain
dining table. Bar stools are better than chairs for a tiny kitchen.
8.
Put up the Shelves above the Sink
Erecting shelves above the sink save lots of space
and it is easier to put dishes in these shelves after washing. If you do not
prefer it, make a smart dish rack and install small hooks under it to hang cups.
It is very handy and convenient.
9.
Cabinets Reaching Ceiling
Kitchen cabinets can reach the ceiling. It does not
give a messy look but saves lots of space. You can keep the items in these high
cabinets you use rarely. A few open shelves can also be added on a wall to keep
most of the daily use cutlery, storage jars and bins and cookbooks. It adds a
spacious look in the kitchen.
10.
Use Cabinet Uppers
Be clever and don’t waste any space at all that
could be used for storage. Use can use the space on top of the cabinets for
this purpose.
11.
Use the Corners
The corner is the place which is most of the time
free and gets wasted. Fix some support in the corners
to keep pans you use the most. It doesn’t give a
messy look and makes the items easily accessible.
12.
Keep Only the Things You Like
Reduce the items and get rid of the items you don’t like
or use. This is the most important tip of all. Keep lots of cutlery you don’t
use at all gives disordered look to your kitchen and makes it look untidy and narrow.
13.
Use Integrated Refrigerator and Microwave
Another tip to save your kitchen space is to install
integrated refrigerator and microwave which fit totally inside the standard
cabinet. Only the doors extend beyond. It really gives a spacious look to your kitchen.
Beyond all these space saving tips for your kitchen,
there are some aesthetics that can make your kitchen look broader like matching
the furniture and the walls, using better lights and ornamenting your kitchen
with few fresh flowers.
When kitchen is seasoned with careful and smart
ways, it makes you confident to throw a proper cocktail party.
