Getting Organised in the Kitchen

IT is a real pleasure to cook in a kitchen that is well organised with everything neat and tidy and easy to lay your hands on.

The secret is to have a place for everything, to keep everything in its place and to make sure that items that are used frequently are easily accessible.



Some people want to create the feeling of a bustling, family-friendly kitchen. They like to have lots of items on display. Others want a calmer space with clear worktops and everything out of sight. For the former, open shelves and plate racks can hold herbs and spices or a decorative crockery set. Saucepans can be hung from the ceiling.

You can display your spices and dried herbs in a smart rack or hide them away in a cupboard. This smart chrome spice and herb rack is one solution. This rack can be either hung inside a cupboard door or fixed to the wall.


You may want something more "country kitchen" than a chrome spice rack so take a look at this stylish wooden rack.




If you prefer your kitchen more minimalist, plenty of drawers and cupboard space are a priority. Carousel fittings for the corner units or pull-out shelves in a larder unit mean that nothing gets lost at the back.



A pull-out ironing board and pull-out tea towel rails are also space-saving and ensure a clean, uncluttered look.
