Best corner storage solutions?
Comments (1)You pretty much have 5 choices for inside corners: 1) easy reach for upper and super susan easy reach for lower 2) diagonal for both (mix 'n' match works too) 3) dead space 4) inside corner drawers 5) Rev-a-shelf type pullout People really seem to have a comfort level with some or all of these solutions - meaning they love some and hate others. I've linked a recent thread on this which you may find helpful, but there are others with photos and testimonials on why individuals love what they have, or not. Google "kitchen blind corners" and you'll get a bunch of hits, many from GW. This is an issue that everyone struggles with. Here is a link that might be useful: Recent thread on topic...See MoreCare to share your best kitchen storage ideas?
Comments (47)I had a few extra inches planned between my refrigerator and framed entranceway so that the refrigerator door could open fully. A panel was supposed to cover it. I never would have been able to do something really useful with the few inches as I didn't need a pull-out that big right next to my doorway. After the sheetrock was put up, we discovered a few more inches! I remembered that someone on this forum had a cabinet mounted sideways next to the refrigerator so that it opened out. I kind of used that idea but the cabinet opening is on the other side of the doorway. So now I've got a recessed custom built-in cabinet in my tiny mudroom. The cabinet depth is the door frame and "kitchen filler space". The filler space is covered by a small panel and I think of it as my reclaimed/found space! jayne...See MoreTell me about your favorite cabinet insert or storage solution
Comments (24)My tall oven cabinet came with a shelf, so I just put it high enough to fit my griddle and extra long platters and then placed the dividers on top of the shelf. The dividers can be screwed down, but I didn't bother as they don't move much without the screws and it also meant I didn't have to drill holes in my shelf! Even if the cabinet had not come w/the shelf, I was going to ask for one since I already had planned for this storage based on what I had seen here in the thread linked below. I think I got the idea from Gizmonike and Sail-Away. BTW...I was originally going to get the Rev-A-Shelf dividers but put these from Walmart in temporarily. The Walmart ones worked so well that I didn't bother to replace them...besides, I would have needed 6 packs of 2-dividers each and at $14.95 per 2-pack, this was much cheaper! I used 3 dividers from Walmart at $5.95 each, so $18 vs $90...easy decision! I also bought two more of those dividers and put them under my corner prep sink...one in each deep corner One holds cutting boards, the other holds my pizza stones & cast iron frying pan.

Comments (8)I try not to dry bone dry. I fold as I remove from dryer then let sit on bed for an hour before putting away. This helps with the daily t-shirts and socks etc. However with regular baseboard heat everything seems to have static, especially synthetics, wool, and down. If it's bad I use Static Guard. Mostly I get little shocks (touching the light switch or door knob) every time I walk in or out of the apartment when wearing a down coat and wool sweater....See Moresmm5525
