18.06.2008/ Kitchen Tips by Charles Newhaven
The hub of the home should be clutter-free if you want to have all of your cooking and dining essentials within easy reach.House and Home talks to interior designer Una Broderick of Charle Newhaven and shares great kitchen storage tips:
- Open shelves always look good and are a great way to show off some funky mismatched crockery.
- Hooks under the shelves for your mug and jugs.
- An eclectic array of storage jars also look great displayed on work surfaces, and it is an exciting past time rummaging through jumble sales for the one-off jars!
- Covered shoe boxes in fabric or wallpaper for all the household bills and post.
- Get your ironing board fitted into one of your kitchen presses so it slides away neatly when not in use.
- Again use jars within your units as it does save space-half boxes of cereal take up far too much valuable room.
- Pots and pans can be stored overhead using a narrow pole and some "S" hooks. Very simple, effective and inexpensive!
- A magnetic strip fitted on your wall for all your knives.
- Use the back of your unit doors to the max with hooks for drying towels. Narrow racks for spice jars, cling film etc...
- If space is really vital, utilise the area beneath the units behind the kicker board for storing roasting tins or narrow baskets of vegetables.
