Fit space-wasting corner cabinets with lazy Susan carousels or three-fourths circle shape shelves.
Install pullout shelves or baskets that use up all of the space in a deep cabinet.
Place stacking platforms in taller shelf spaces to save room.
Buy drawer partitions, turntables and other organizers specially designed for kitchens, at a large discount store. These inexpensive and ready-made organizers fit into your existing cabinets.
Consider hanging pot racks, a grid system or a few hooks to make the most of vertical wall space.
Free up drawer space by using a decorative canister or crock to hold often-used utensils, such as spatulas and spoons.
Mount under-cabinet racks to display your prettiest stemware or teacups.
You can also mount paper plate holders, electric can-openers and automatic coffeepots under kitchen cabinets to leave extra room on your countertops.
Clip wire inserts onto the undersides of shelves to turn unused space into valuable storage.
Use your oven for hiding seldom-used pots and pans, but remember to remove them before turning on your oven.
Choose a sturdy folding step stool to help you access out-of-reach storage space without requiring much of its own.
Reduce paper clutter in the kitchen by hanging a bulletin board or magnet board on an unused wall.
Save space in your freezer with lightweight, vinyl-coated wire units, designed to double stack things on a pantry shelf. Just lean the units against a side or back wall to store small juice cans and large frozen items in the same vertical space.
Place small jars like spices on inexpensive plastic turntables, so they'll be at your fingertips with just one spin.
Transform a jumble of pan lids by mounting lid racks on cabinet doors or the inside of a pantry door.
