Great Space Saving Kitchen Organizers by org1234

While we love to eat in the kitchen, the kitchen loves to eat space. First itâs the fruit on the counter. Tupperware containers have flagged and claimed half of your cabinets. The microwave, the toaster, the rice cooker, the toaster oven all own real estate in your kitchen as well, not to mention the stand-alone pantry and the island that seceded from the rest of the room. Then of course, when itâs time to carve the Thanksgiving turkey, youâre kneeling down over it, it resting atop two potholders on the floor, the only space left to do anything.

If you canât take it anymore and want nothing else but to organize your kitchen space, here are a few economical space-saving ideas to bring you peace of mind:

Stack ânâ Store Spinner Set

To address your wealth of reusable storage containers, lids flowing like the waters of the great Nile, each special one as hard to locate as one grain of sand in all the beaches of the world, the Stack ânâ Store Spinner will clear your cabinets, your refrigerator, and your head. The Stack ânâ Store Spinner is a 54 piece work of organizational architecture that organizes your entire food storage collection into one simple, convenient, and accessible unit. It comes with 24 dishwasher and microwave-safe containers and lidsâ"eight 6oz, eight 12 oz, and eight 20 ozâ"as well as a spinning base for stacking them where you store them. The spinning base makes for fast an easy selection and clean up, and has a carry handle for one-handed transport. Whatâs more, the containers are interlocking for nice, clean storage in the refrigerator or freezer. For only $20, the money you would have spent on building bigger kitchen cabinets on more food to fill the empty ones the Stack ânâ Store will give you.

Four-Tier Fruit Rack

Youâve got the grapes in one bowl on the kitchen table, the bananas shoved in a corner somewhere, and the bread jammed up under the cabinet and on top of the toaster over. Every time you need to use an appliance you have to shift it all around, and forget about using the counter space for things like cutting and preparing mealsâ"counters are for storage these days. However, they shouldnât have to be, and, with the $20, Four-Tier Fruit Rack, you can take back that space while still keeping your fruit out in the open. The four-tiered chrome-plated design stands free on the floor 35 inches high. Its open rack structure allows for optimal circulation around your produce, keeping your fruits and vegetables bruiseless and fresh longer than the plastic bowl with the paper towel in the bottom. Keep your nutritious eats in plain sight to keep healthy eating fresh in your mind.

Wrap Foil Dispenser

Tired of the aluminum foil boxes that fall apart, leaving you with that trashy free-floating roll that you either have to cut with scissors or fold over the counter, as if youâre actually going to tear a straight line? For $10, the Wrap Foil Dispenser will rid you of those flimsy boxes. Just insert your 12-inch roll of foil into the reusable Wrap Foil Dispense and youâll get a precise, clean cut every time you use it. Itâs smaller than boxes, fitting more neatly in a drawer, and will even cling to the refrigerator by its built-in magnet. The dispenserâs window lets you know how much is left so you donât have to guess when itâs time to replace it.

Upright Bag Holder

While a bird in the hand might be worth two in the bush, 150 plastic bags in a drawer is nothing but irritating. However, 50 bags in a compact Upright Bag Holder are priceless. For $15, the Upright Bag Holder, at 11.5x5x11.5 inches, fits cleanly underneath the sink, in the pantry, or even on the counter. Its sleek design takes up almost no space, and its no-skid base will keep it where it belongs. Made of stainless steel and polypropylene, the Upright Bag Holder stores up to 50 bags, dispensing one at a time, and will last a lifetime. Take back that junk drawer or closet space for more junk.

Adjustable Door Rack

Is your pantry stocked for the apocalypse of 2012? Maybe itâs still stocked from the year 2000 scare, or has been since the Cold War. For you, a warning: there exists a point when you canât store another bottle of water or can of green beans. However, if you insist, an Adjustable Door Rack fits securely on the back of a door, hiding seven 5.5x24â wire basket racks. Each basket is adjustable in the 67-inch frame, and is strong enough to hold whatever foodstuffs you can dream to put in it. Only $25, the Adjustable Door Rack is like adding another cabinet to your kitchenâ"minus the construction crew.
