If free space is sparse in your kitchen then it’s time to get creative when it comes to including added storage.

Larger utensils like graters and soup ladles can clog up valuable drawer space, or they may not even fit in the drawer in the first place!

If you have free wallspace above the sink consider wall-mounting a steel track to arrange cooking utensils and equipment such as paper towels. Secure to wall studs using timber screws and attach hooks to hold lightweight cutlery storage units.

This solution will free up valuable drawer and bench space and keep utensils conveniently close at hand.
