A neat, tidy home where everything has its place feels so much better to live in. If you’re like me, focusing on things is hard when there’s clutter, or when things just don’t seem to belong where they are.
But it wasn’t always this way for me. When I was younger, I didn’t care much about keeping things organized around the house. Looking back, I owe my mom for the way I keep things neat now. Our house was always so organized it could’ve been in a magazine.
My mom shared a lot of tips with me, especially on using those small cupboards that many kitchens have above the fridge. You know the ones I’m talking about? If you have them too, keep reading to learn some ideas for making the most of them.
At first glance, those small cupboards above the fridge might not seem all that useful.
They’re usually not big enough for larger items, and putting everyday things like plates or cups up that high isn’t very practical.
So, what should you do with them?
If you’re wondering how to make use of those small cupboards above your fridge, here are some handy tips!
**Storage for Kitchen Gadgets You Rarely Use**
These cupboards aren’t the best spot for things you use every day, but they’re perfect for items that only come out occasionally. This could include things like food processors, blenders, or waffle makers that you don’t need all the time.
**Canned Goods and Baking Supplies**
Most canned foods and baking supplies have long shelf lives, so it’s okay if they sit out of reach for a while. Consider storing cans or baking items up here if you only need them now and then, like weekend baking ingredients.
**Cookbooks**
If you have cookbooks you’d like to keep tidy and out of the way, this high cupboard can be a good storage place. I actually use mine for this purpose, and it keeps my books organized without taking up counter space.
Here are some more ideas for using those small cupboards above your fridge!
**Pantry Items and Spices**
Just like canned foods, some pantry items and spices can fit well in these cupboards. You might also use a small spice rack to keep your cooking spices organized and out of the way up here.
**Kitchen Towels**
If you buy kitchen towels in bulk, this can be a good storage space for them. Keeping them up high saves room in other drawers and keeps them organized.
**Special Occasion China**
If you have fine china or special cutlery that’s only used for special occasions, storing them above the fridge might make sense. It keeps them safe and out of reach of children.
**Safety Tips**
Always be careful with these cupboards. Avoid storing anything too heavy that could be hard to lift down safely. A sturdy stool or step ladder is best for reaching these items, and remember that the heat from the fridge below can make this space unsuitable for certain items.
