There is no such thing as too many pans. We all need a small one for eggs, a medium size one for pancakes, a deep one for deep frying and the list goes on and on. No space for an overhead rack in your kitchen? No problem. The best way to make space in small places is to stop stacking and start hanging.
Simply place some corkboard on the inside of the cabinet and stick adhesive hooks on it. You can hang all your pots and pans and have tons of space. No need to drill holes or knock-in nails. Sticking on wood is just as good and is completely hassle-free. You won’t believe how many pots and pans you can actually have.
Peg Down Your Toothbrush
Bathroom surfaces are a breeding ground for bacteria. If we could give you a microscope to see what was going on on those surfaces, you would find it hard to believe. It's best not to leave your things strewn on the counter, especially your toothbrush. That is one item you don't want to get infected with unwanted bacteria.
The best way to avoid this is simple. Stick a clothespeg on the counter and clip your toothbrush in there. This will hold your toothbrush in place and elevate it above the counter. Now you can brush your teeth with a clean brush and finally do something useful for a change.
Hang Up Heavy Utensils Too
Once you've started sticking up hooks, you will find that you will have endless space. Now you can go out and add another piece to your kitchen essential collection. You can hang up bigger utensils like spatulas, strainers, larger spoons, ladles, and even larger hanging knives like cleavers and chef knives.
This can really take away the frustration of a messy kitchen, as there is nothing more annoying than trying to find something when you are just about to prepare something for dinner. It's also much easier to find. Just make sure you don't hang anything sharp in places children can reach.
Throw Dishwashing Liquid into Your Blender
Cleaning a blender can be a real headache. It doesn't have smooth angles, it always tends to have small bits stuck in extra small hols, and you can never get to the bottom of it. Not only that, but it can be potentially pretty dangerous. Sticking your hand into blades can cut your hand up into ribbons.
No one wants that. There are safer ways, though. You can try dishwashing liquid. Add the dish soap to your blender with two cups of warm water, and blend it together until the food residue washes away. It's super safe and totally efficient.
Light Up Dark Cabinets With LED Lights
Unfortunately, not all of us can afford the fancy cabinet lighting that comes with our kitchen units. Some of us mere mortals have to put up with the shame of dark cabinets and learn how to embrace the darkness and gloom. This can be rather annoying when you're trying to rummage around for cereal or a peanut butter jar.
You don't need to walk through kitchen supplies with a flashlight or candle. You can just install some LED lights on the shelves so that you see everything clearly. They are pretty cheap and look pretty sleek if you ask us.
