Fighting Kitchen and Bath Clutter

Who says there’s no catch-all solution for storage? Don’t most of us wish there was one remedy for clutter in the kitchen and bath? Tossing everything into one container can be tricky. You have to sort through a lot of items you don’t need just to get to the gravy ladle for that one day a month.  On the other hand, why not put all your essential bathroom items in a well-arranged, hold-all cabinet, or your kitchen odds and ends into special catch-all units for them?

I like the idea of a movable storage cabinet that can double as a cutting or food preparation surface and a wheel-away stowage unit for over-sized pots and pans or rarely used appliances.  Manufacturers sell islands with a large storage cabinet or five sliding drawers. I’ve found a large assortment of styles and features online that run from $129 to $327. They come in most materials, including hardwoods, laminates, metals, and polymers.

Clear Out Bathroom Clutter
Old House Web reviewed a three-shelf bathroom cabinet that is roomy, durable, and has a removable shelf for storing tall items. A super way of getting stuff out of your way is to install a doored cabinet beneath your sink or between the sink and tub area. Models come in conventional framed or frame-less styles that can store towels, washcloths, and bathroom accessories. If you want to add more, according to Hip Improvement Projects, vanity counters and pedestal sinks bring a high return on your investment.

A single, large under-counter cabinet can be a great solution to clutter, especially one with drawers you can assign to members of the family or guests. No one wants to stand around, fishing for a hair brush or fresh bar of soap, especially when your bathroom’s in top demand in the morning.
