Are you in a kitchen rut? Here in Connecticut, it’s common to have a messy or outdated kitchen. But if you entertain or often cook, you want your kitchen to be organized, spacious, functional and beautiful to suit your tastes. The designers at California Closets have put together several ways to spice up your kitchen and organize your home, whether you live in Westchester County, New York, Westport, Weston, Darien, Fairfield, Trumbull, Ridgefield, Monroe, Shelton, Wilton or New Canaan.
Before you can add flair, you need to get your kitchen in order. A custom pantry system requires organization through excellent functional design. Shelving, drawers and baskets combine to accommodate specific needs and uses, ensuring accessibility and order in a space where items are continually removed and replaced.
- Sliding storage shelves allow for easy access to canned goods, while vertical shelf dividers organize everything beautifully.
- Pantry drawers are specially designed to be spaced further apart, providing a better view of their contents.
- Drawers conceal utensils and cooking equipment, as well as snacks to make provisions easily accessible for children.
- Wine racks and stemware holders cleverly store bottles and glassware.
- Pullout racks for linens and vertical shelf dividers for mops, brooms, and cleaning supplies organize often-used items.
After getting your things in order, ask yourself what you use your kitchen for. Entertaining? Drinking coffee? Cooking for five family members? Whatever it is, it’s smart to cater your kitchen design to your lifestyle. Here is some kitchen design inspiration:
