Where to find hidden space
| Item | Why it works |
|---|---|
| Walls | Rails, shelves and magnetic strips |
| Cabinet doors | Racks for lids and wraps |
| Drawers | Dividers and in-drawer spice racks |
| Corners | Lazy Susans and blind-corner pull-outs |
| Gaps | Slim rolling pantry carts |

Use doors and drawers
- Fit door racks for lids and cutting boards.
- Use drawer dividers for cutlery and tools.
- Store spices in a drawer insert.

Clever extras

- Use a lazy Susan in corner cabinets.
- Decant dry food into matching square jars.
