There comes a time in every couple’s registry experience when, amidst the scanning and choices and checklists, a thought enters their minds: where are we going to put all of this stuff?
Those registry checklists (which are totally helpful, by the way), seem designed for couples with a pantry, linen closet, and endless drawer and cabinet space, but most couples begin their lives in cozy apartments and starter homes, meaning storage and space are limited.
Today we’re tackling the most extensive category of the registry checklist: the kitchen. With a few tips and tricks, and the right tools and appliances, you’ll achieve maximum efficiency with minimal space!
Space Saving Tip #1:
Create Countertop Space
When you’re working within a tight space, you’ll want to clear your counters and create more work surfaces if possible.
Space Saving Tip #2:
Go for Mini Appliances with Major Power
In a tight kitchen, you’ll want appliances that pack a major punch at a minimal size.
Compact in size but big in function, this mini oven features 8 preset functions that make everything from broiling to roasting to baking cookies a simple science. Though it only occupies a foot of counter space, it toasts up to 4 slices of bread at a time and can accommodate an 11″ pizza! It’s a small wonder.
This little single-serve blender blends ice and fruits (including peels and seeds) quickly, so you can keep up your juice habit without having to operate and store a heavy-duty juicer.
You can sacrifice a lot of things in the quest to de-clutter, but coffee should never be one of them. At only 5” wide, this Nespresso Espresso Maker will keep you caffeinated and your countertops clear!
Space Saving Tip #3:
Stack, File, Fold, and Roll
Thanks to innovative design, these once clunky products have been streamlined, allowing you to pack as much as possible into your drawers and cabinets!
Colorful and space saving, this nesting system includes nine pieces ranging from a teaspoon to a large mixing bowl. The set stacks compactly and snaps securely for easy storage.
