Whether you’re a social butterfly or a homebody, you probably spent more of 2020 at home than ever before. And chances are, you came to the same realization that many homeowners did last year: most homes just aren’t designed for 24/7 full-family togetherness. Worse, those big, beautiful, open kitchens that used to be so good […]
Just about everyone has found themselves wishing they had a bigger kitchen. No matter how big or small your kitchen actually is, I think we all sometimes feel a little crunched and disorganized – especially when trying to put together a big meal for a crowd. But while some kitchens would certainly benefit from a […]
Making the most of a small kitchen often requires thinking outside the box – and by box, I mean outside the traditional kitchen cabinet. In Part 2 of this series, I talked a little bit about using pull out shelves and other cabinet organizers to help improve the efficiency of the cabinets you have, but […]
Getting a small kitchen organized is no small task. When space is limited, every available inch matters. Quick fixes like the ones mentioned in Part 1 of this series are a good way to make better use of unused space, but today I want to look at ways to make ordinary storage spaces work smarter, […]
