Tips To Arrange A Small Kitchen?
In large cities apartments are
getting smaller with every coming day. With shrinking living spaces, kitchens
are getting smaller too. This requires a smart move to make good use of every
inch.
So the question arises of how
to arrange appliances in the small kitchen.
In this article, some techniques
are given. That will answer your question.
Group
The Appliances:
Some appliances are frequently
used but some are rarely or never. These Appliances must be grouped accordingly
So that the appliance which is frequently used is given an easily accessible
place.
The rarely used appliances can
be put somewhere other than the kitchen. That will free the space for many other
things.
Choose Equipment Smartly:
Some equipment can do multiple
jobs. A high-quality blender can be used as a food processor. waffle iron can
also be used as the panini press and stockpot can cook rice that means you will
not need a rice cooker.
By this technique the number of
appliances can be reduced which vacate the space.
Give Away Unused Equipment:
Most people are reluctant to get
rid of appliances even if they have never used them before. Many people out
there need this equipment but they don't have enough money. You can either
donate them or sell them for lower prices.
By doing this you can create the
space for the new or older equipment that you need but there was no space for
them.
Recycle the faulty equipment:
In our kitchens, we may have some equipment
which is faulty and of no use to us. The best thing for us is that we send it
to the recycling plant. You can also donate them to freecycle who will recycle
them for you.
If you have not made up your
mind to recycle them, then the next best thing is to put them in the box and
put them out of sight, to free up the space in the kitchen.
Organize Cabinets:
Unorganized things take more
space than they should. To save up space, you need to arrange everything.
Every cabinet must be assigned
to the same type of things like crockery and spices must have a different
cabinet.
By doing this you will not just
save space but also make it easy to find things.
Install Magnet Holders:
Magnet holders are a very
effective way to save space. Knives take large space on the counter but they
can be saved by magnet holders which can increase accessibility and save space
for other things in the kitchen.
Maintaining and Upgrading:
It is the best strategy to
rearrange the whole kitchen twice a year. In this, you need to rearrange
everything and take out any unused items.
This may seem daunting but, It
keeps the kitchen updated and arranged.
Moveable Kitchen Rack:
You can buy a moveable kitchen
rack that can give you additional space to store the appliances and other
things like cutting boards and crockery. These racks can be moved around which
makes them suitable for the small kitchen.
These are strong enough to
handle heavy appliances like microwaves as well.
