3. Make use of space by creating hooks for your coffee and tea cups.

Just a reminder, the Etsy shop and King street shop will be closed this week and reopen on Saturday, January 14th! We are enjoying a little vacation to start 2017! Nothing like some rest and relaxation to get your creative vibes going!!! Also had some extra time to work on our new house! Love this little shelf space in our dining room! With a little old house, you have to be creative in the storage category! #kitchenstorage #charlestonhomes #parkcircle #shelfie #accessorizing

4. Store flat, large baking trays into little ‘slots’ so you can see them more easily.

Maybe it’s just me, but an organized cabinet like this one makes me really happy!! The more organized you are, the more time you have for fun!! ??… get #organized ! …. #mommylife #lessstuffmorelife #kitchenstorage #storagesolutions

6. Make yourself a little hanging chandelier of ladles and wooden spoons.

Another veiw of the new #utensil #organizer or #rack.it comes with hooks and holds 12 utensils. It would also be great for #dryingherbs.They are now available in my #etsy shop #chareststudios. #kitchenrack #kitchenstorage #vintagestyle #countrystyle #rustic #farmhouse #wire #hangingorganizer #handmade #madeintheusa #steel #kitchenstuff
