AFFORDABLE WAYS TO ADD STORAGE TO YOUR KITCHEN

I

t doesn’t matter how big your kitchen is. Since we tend to spread out and use however much storage space we have, sooner or later, everyone runs out of space.

If your kitchen is short on storage options, there’s no need to embark on a renovation. Instead, consider these great ideas from Consumer Reports for adding more options for stashing kitchen supplies and groceries.

A ROLLING KITCHEN CART You might be considering installing a swanky kitchen island, but that can cost big bucks.

Instead, invest in a stylish rolling cart that provides many of the same advantages at a fraction of the cost. When it comes to carts, you can get as fancy as you’d like—many have fold-down tables and hideaway stools, for example, providing you with extra seating options when needed.

CABINET ORGANIZERS You can get more mileage out of your existing cabinet space by retrofitting them with organizers.

Install a Lazy Susan in a corner, for example, so you don’t lose track of items buried in the back.

Roll-out drawers in base cabinets allow you to pack more in and easily access whatever you may need.

If you’ve got a large pantry, install tiered shelves to give you an at-a-glance view of kitchen staples like canned goods, spices and baking supplies.

TOE-KICK DRAWER These secret hiding spots can be placed at the base of your cabinets and open with just the push of your foot. Use them to store school and office supplies, gift wrap supplies, first-aid items or whatever else you may not need on a daily basis.

Adding these space-saving organizers to your kitchen will not only make your life easier, but will surely appeal to prospective homebuyers when it comes time to put your home on the market.

FINDING A SECOND HOME YOU CAN USE

YEAR-ROUND

There’s nothing like having a vacation home where you can go to escape daily stress and spend quality time with the people who matter most. Often, however, a secondary residence may only be used for part of the year, such as a summer beach home or winter ski lodge. If you’re looking for a vacation property that can be put to good use throughout the year, here are several tips to help guide your search.

ACTIVITIES FOR EVERY SEASON A year-round getaway will give you access to different activities each season. For example, a lake home where you can enjoy the water in the summer, hiking trails in the fall and cross country skiing in the winter is surely going to provide endless fun for the whole family, no matter what time of year it is.

SENSE OF COMMUNITY Many resort destinations can turn into ghost towns for part of the year, which can feel a little isolating when you go there during the off-season. For this reason, you may want to consider a community with year-round residents, so you know that there will always be plenty of things to do.

VERSATILE AESTHETIC While its impact might be more psychological than anything, a home’s interior design can certainly affect how you use it. For instance, a summer home that’s decorated with a cool and breezy aesthetic might feel too cold in the winter and lack a cozy ambiance. That’s why a year-round home should embrace a look that lends itself to any season.

CONSIDER THE CLIMATE Of course, some destinations simply cannot be enjoyed throughout the entire year because of the climate. Whether it’s too hot in the summer or too cold in the winter, there’s no getting around it when the weather isn’t on your side.

The best solution is to choose a location with a favorable year-round climate.

House Cleaning Tips to Steal From the Pros When it comes to spring cleaning, or housekeeping any time of the year, nobody knows how to make it more efficient than professional home and hotel cleaners.

Try these tips from the pros in your own home.

Stock up on gloves and microfiber cloths.

Rubber gloves can help you through a variety of messy tasks without soaking your hands in water or chemicals. Microfiber cloths can be used wet for kitchen and bath cleaning, or dry for thorough dusting.

Simplify your cleaning products. You should not need more than three or four products, including a mix of vinegar and water in a spray bottle, to tackle every cleaning job in every room of your house.

Keep cleaning tools handy. Having products and rags in a moveable carry-case, and brooms and a vacuum in a central spot, saves time and energy. In a two-story home, keep a second vacuum upstairs for quick and easy pick-ups.

Clean the kitchen every day that you cook.

Not the whole kitchen, but the range, the counters to the side of it, the refrigerator handle and the sink. New kitchen dirt is easy to clean, but old kitchen dirt can harden into rock.

Don’t get bogged down with clutter. Spend some time once or twice a month sorting and putting clutter where it belongs. In between, just pick up those light piles of mail and magazines and clean under and around them.

Keep your pets brushed. It will minimize the time you spend dusting and vacuuming.

Have a cleaning path. Whether it’s back of the house to the front, or tougher rooms first, know the route you will take. In any case, clean from the top down, ceilings first, so floors that catch the dust and debris are the last to be swept and/ or vacuumed.

Start with the worst challenge in a room.

In the kitchen, it’s the range. In the bathroom, it’s the shower. In the dining room, it may be the chandelier. Once you complete the main challenge, the rest of the room is easy.

TOP TIPS FOR MAXIMIZING YOUR WALLS Balancing aesthetics with storage-friendly solutions and your personal style can be a chore, but when you find that balance and truly maximize your walls there are big advantages for your living space. Find your wall’s true potential with these ideas.

FLOATING SHELVES While floating shelves are nothing new, they are certainly an ideal addition to your space for a reason. A storage solution with a minimalist footprint, floating shelves easily allows homeowners to strike that perfect balance between decor-friendly and practical. Add them in spaces where you need to store books or cookbooks, small collections or photographs. Remember to keep your display visually pleasing by arranging books in stacks, adding small plants and catering to storage needs and design simultaneously.

HAND PAINTED ART Nothing can breathe life to any room like hand painted art on your walls. Take advantage of your wall space by choosing a painting that adds a pop of color and cheer. If artwork sounds like an expense you are not ready to pull the trigger on, consider browsing local college’s art galleries for sale pieces, or join a paint and sip class and try your hand at creating a statement piece that you’ll be proud to call your own.

PEGBOARDS While they aren’t the most artistic item you can put on your wall, pegboards are ideal for kitchens, garages, sheds and kids’ rooms.

In any area where additional storage is needed, a pegboard and S hooks can come in handy. To make your practical storage a little more visually pleasing, consider painting your plain pegboard to coordinate your room’s decor.

PHOTOGRAPHS Art can serve to bring a whole mood to life in your space, but nothing can make a house feel like home quite like personal photographs. Whether you choose to display professionally captured family photos, or simply want to create a gallery of candid pictures of your friends and loved ones, you will be sure to feel more at home than ever before.

Vertical space is plentiful in many homes, but it often goes underutilized. Getting the most out of your walls is vital to ensure that your room truly reflects your personal style and also meets your storage and display needs. These tips are sure to help you take advantage of the empty walls in your home.
