A clean and well-maintained kitchen is largely achieved by keeping a working surface in order. Maintaining tidiness on the countertop can be challenging, especially in small kitchens where you don't know where to place utensils and accessories. However, there are many storage techniques for all dishes, kitchen tools, pots, and other appliances that can make life easier in the kitchen.

You should be certain that you cannot use the countertop as a storage shelf for items. Or partially yes, but if you do, it's essential to follow a strict organization and cleaning routine so that everything stays clean and looks good.

KITCHEN AND CLEANLINESS

The first step toward maintaining countertop cleanliness is the simplest of all – but also one of the most time-consuming. A good trick used by professional chefs is to use waiting time while cooking to clean used utensils and wipe down the countertop. You just need to implement this rule into your daily routine, and you'll avoid a very chaotic kitchen.

MAKE CLEANING WATER EASY

A well-organized sink can become the heart of your kitchen. So... don't leave sponges and soap in the sink on the countertop! You can attach brackets to the wall and store cleaning items there, or use a plastic or metal box.

ELEVATE GLASS CONTAINERS

You can store dry goods, sauces, and almost everything else in glass jars or other containers on the countertop. You just need to ensure that containers close tightly, especially if you store food in them. Storing items in containers helps make them easily accessible and allows you to get rid of unappealing or bulky packaging.

You simply need to choose one type of container or well-grouped ones and line them up on the countertop to give a clean, organized look. Push them away from the wall or press against it to free up space in front.

LOWER THE MICROWAVE

A microwave oven can take up a lot of space on the countertop, but it's not an appliance you want to pull out from a cabinet every time you need to use it. We give you a solution: integrate it into kitchen furniture.

GIVE BREAD ITS PLACE

If you tend to store bread on the countertop rather than in the refrigerator, consider storing it in built-in baskets or a kitchen drawer. But be careful with this method... especially if you have pets!

HIDE THE DISHES

To keep your kitchen perfectly organized, you should collect dishes and glasses right after washing. A dish rack is one of the most useful accessories. It allows us to have plates and glasses visible and perfectly arranged.

It can also be very practical because after washing dishes in the sink, there's no need to leave them to dry on a towel on the work surface.

HANG AND WIN

Kitchen tools such as spoons or screwdrivers can be hung on a small tube, on various hooks. There are some very practical hanging racks that simply stick with adhesive or strips: this is a good option if you don't want to drill holes in the wall.
