Organize Kitchen - Counter Space

Organize Kitchen Counter Space

Your main goal in organizing the kitchen counter is in keeping them clutter free.
You do not want items cluttering up your counter tops because that leads to
the beginning of the end. Keep them clear.

• Canisters and cookbooks are usually found on kitchen counters. Try
  to find a place for them on a handy shelf
• Keep appliances that are not used daily out of sight. Mixers, blenders and other
  similar appliances should be kept off the counter and stored in kitchen cabinets
• Some model toaster ovens and can openers can be mounted beneath cabinets keeping
  your counter space free. If you have appliances that need to be out for easy
  access check to see if they come in top mount format
• Microwave ovens take up a lot of space. Try to mount them under cabinets or on
  rolling racks for easy movement

Creating extra work space

• If you have enough space consider buying or building a table in
  the center of the kitchen. This adds more workspace and a shelf underneath
  could be used for large cookware
• If you don’t have enough space to make a permanent add on consider one that could
  flip up and flip down when not in use
• Build a removable or sliding cutting board for the top drawer so that it can
  extend your work area
• Purchase a cutting board that works accross a sink. This adds additional work
  space
