You want to learn how to make the most of the space in your kitchen, but you’re not sure how to do that. Well, we have a solution for that. The easy-to-follow suggestions that we have for you below are very simple and effective and will help you design and organise your kitchen space in an efficient and beautiful way.

These are very simple steps you can follow. If you’re looking for more detailed, interior-design-related steps, stay on the lookout for a potential post in the future. The steps we outline below would work well for a small kitchen or even a more sizeable kitchen.

To start us off, keep in mind that the key is to use the space you have in an effective way and an appealing way. So, the first thing you need to do is to look around your kitchen and determine what is unnecessarily taking up space. Oftentimes, people have items in the kitchen that are large and clunky that take up too much space or just idly sit there with very little purpose, if any at all. Once you have determined which items and appliances you’re not using and which items are unnecessarily large and bulky, clear them out. Depending on what they are, you could either store them elsewhere, throw them out, or give/donate them to someone or to a charity in your community. This is bound to clear up a lot of space instantly.

Next, figure out which items around your kitchen are an eyesore. This could include things like a worn-out dish rack, a broken-down cupboard, old rugs or mats, clunky and outdated microwave, and so on. Then, one by one, replace them with more functional, appealing, and newer versions of them, or if you think they are not serving much of a purpose, you should just get rid of them completely. This will liven up the kitchen and will give you a much more functional kitchen as well.

On the topic of livening up the kitchen and adding some life to it, another great idea is to incorporate flowers and/or plants in the space. Many factors come in to play if you consider this option. The type of plant you go for will depend on how much time you are willing to put into its maintenance. It will also depend on other factors such as your personality and character, the climate of your region, and the size of your kitchen. You then have the choice to either display the plants prominently in the kitchen or a bit more inconspicuously depending on how salient you want this feature to be. You could also hang them in a carefully-selected area or place them in a beautiful vase somewhere. Depending on how much colour you want to add to your kitchen, you could go with either a simple and plain green plant or a more exuberant and colourful plant.

If you have a small kitchen area, then it might be wise to make the most of the space by replacing bigger furniture items, such as large cupboards, with alternatives such as floating shelves. This will certainly create a lot more space for you in your kitchen. Not to mention, the right kind of floating shelves can even add a lot more beauty to the space.

The main objective we had in writing this post was to provide quick, simple, and actionable steps that anyone can implement immediately to improve the space in their kitchen. So, please, feel free to try the steps, modify them how you wish, and add a few more of your own steps that may have been inspired by what you saw here.
