Kitchen Organizers that are Ideal for Small Spaces
If you are like the influx of people moving into tiny apartments and trying to live thriftier by cooking themselves, maintaining a small kitchen can be hard.
The lack of cabinet and counter space in small kitchens or kitchenettes can make it difficult for you to organize all your pantry items and kitchenware neatly. Before you know it, your cleaners are in the same cupboard as your cereals, and your microwave is now home to your good plates. Not only can that be insanitary, it also becomes annoying and a downright hassle for you to use your kitchen.
That problem can be solved easily with a little bit of imagination, restructuring and a bevy of storage units. Using organizers can help capitalize on space, giving you more room to store items in their proper places and, essentially, more room to move around. So if you are ready to embark on reordering your kitchen, look over the list below for some ideas.
Spice Stack
For under $40, the three-tier Spice Stack not only maximizes space, it makes organizing your spices a color-coded snap. The white plastic 11-in x 11-in x 8-in rack, which fits up to 60 spices, has an easy-to-operate design that allows it to fit in all cabinets, and each tier has a pull-out drawer that flips down on hinges for viewing at a glance. So when you are making your grandma’s famous meat sauce, you can find the parsley with no problem.
Slim Slide Out Pantry
The Slim Slide Out Pantry is an organizer essential to limited spaces. For just under $40, this plastic slide out pantry can fit between the kitchen counter and refrigerator, conveniently storing a variety of items out of view. Casters make the three-tier “cupboard on wheels” glide out easily for convenient access to kitchen products, cleaning supplies or food items.
Kitchen Cabinet Drawer
The stackable kitchen cabinet drawer fits neatly in most cabinets, not only saving you valuable cabinet space, but it also doubles available counter space. For under $40, this cabinet drawer is made of steel with a chrome finish, and has an adjustable shelf system and pull-out wire basket. Now you can arrange groceries or other kitchen items in a neat space and out of the way.
Under Shelf Wrap Rack
Compact and petite, the Under Shelf Wrap Rack is perfect for storing aluminum wrap, plastic wrap, wax paper rolls, freeze bags, sandwich bags and other food storages items in one easy-to-reach place. Made of metal coated wire, this organizer can wrap around any shelf of any cupboard, pantry or cabinet.
Six-Tier Kitchen Wall Rack
If the amount of cabinet and drawer space you have in your kitchen is minimal, then the Six-Tier Kitchen Wall Rack is just the things you need. The strong steel wire frame of this slim wall organizer, which stands approx. 4-ft high, allows it occupy a variety of items, like cookbooks, food items, collectibles and even potted plants, in each of the 6-in square compartments. Hang it on any available wall in the kitchen for easy access to products.
Expandable Silverware Utensil Tray
If you have a lot of utensils but not a neat way to store them, then consider buying the Expandable Silverware Utensil Tray. Expandable from 16-in to 6-in, this utensil holder can fit in almost any drawer, and hold almost any size silverware, flatware or cutlery. With this tray, you can store your spatulas and forks in the place and keep your drawers tidy and clutter-free. Each compartment has silicone grip material to keep items in place.
Pan Tree
It is hard to store your pots and pans without worrying about an aluminum avalanche when looking for the one you need later on. That is where the Pan Tree comes into play. Made for easy storage on the counter or in a cabinet, the plastic Pan Tree can organize and secure up to 14 cookware pieces, including four lids, six pans and even an oven on eight rungs. So no more worrying about your sauce pot falling down while you grab your stew pot.
Sink Storage Caddy
With the Sink Storage Caddy, you can keep your dishwashing liquids, sponges, cloth rags and other cleaning items all in one easily accessible place and out of the way. The caddy, which is made of ABS plastic, is easily mountable on any cabinet door, or even a wall, and in seconds, you will have a cleaner alternative to a cluttered kitchen sink.
Purchasing the right set of organizers can make a world of difference when maximizing your small kitchen space, so don’t be afraid to shop around and find the perfect fit for your storage needs.

storing kitchen knives?
I'm trying to figure out a way to make a "Kapoosh"
http://www.vat19.com/dvds/kapoosh-universal-knife-block-utensil-holder.cfm
without having to spend a lot of money. Basically it's a knife block that can hold nearly any smaller kitchen knife (it uses hundreds of what appear to be stiff yet flexible fibers. I'm reminded of bristles of a broom. Anyone have any ideas or thoughts on how to go about making something like this?
thanks for the responses so far! woodbutcher, I remember seeing this same thing! It's been a long time ago though. I actually bought about 3 or 4 packages of skewers awhile back, might have to get started now! thanks
Ok, I saw this done in a mag. Make a wooden box that is about 4" square and 8" tall (no top, just a bottom). Next fill it with thin bamboo skewers that they sell in super markets etc. I think they said it would take like 1000 skewers to fill the box.
You can also fill the box with dry beans, lintels etc.
