Everyone has their own preferences when it comes to creating their ideal home, but one thing that most people agree on is having a kitchen that’s both functional and spacious. We all need room for our kitchen gadgets, from coffee makers to air fryers, to make daily life easier. However, some kitchens can feel a bit cramped, making it challenging to find storage space for everything.

One often overlooked storage area is the cupboard space above the refrigerator. While it might seem too high or hard to reach, these cabinets can actually be incredibly useful for storing items that aren’t used every day. In this first part of our series, we’ll explore how you can make the most of this often neglected space, starting with kitchen appliances.

Storing Kitchen Appliances

The cabinets above your fridge are perfect for storing kitchen appliances that don’t see daily use. Think about those gadgets you use occasionally but don’t need cluttering up your countertops. Items like blenders, food processors, or waffle makers fit the bill perfectly. By placing them up high, you free up valuable counter and cabinet space while keeping them handy for when you do need them.

To make accessing these appliances easier, it’s a good idea to keep a step stool nearby, so you don’t have to struggle to reach them. This simple trick can help make your kitchen feel more organized and efficient.

In the next part, we’ll talk about how to store food items like canned goods and baking ingredients in these high cabinets.
