The good old oven has seen a major upgrade over the last decade, and it may be time to get rid of both your microwave and oven, opting for one convection oven to help with both jobs. This will free up some counter space in your kitchen, while also reducing your electricity bill.

4. Slide out your extra space

So you may not need the extra counter space all the time, but that doesn’t mean that you shouldn’t opt for a slide out counter, just in case you need some more workspace for that marathon cupcake baking session that you planned. Or how about investing in a counter space on wheels? It’s a sure way to have some extra storage in your kitchen, and it can be moved to wherever is necessary. You may want to contact a professional carpenter to get yours looking perfect though.

6. Drawer solution

Another great way to keep your cupboard organised is to add some sliding drawers into the cabinets. This is perfect to separate groceries, and will allow quick and easy access to your essentials, you won’t have to stand on a chair anymore to reach those non-perishable items.
