7. Mount a Hanging Pot Rack
Pots and pans are bulky items that quickly overwhelm small cabinet spaces. If you lack cabinet room, turn your cookware into a decorative element by building a hanging pot rack. Secure a sturdy ceiling hook into a wooden ceiling joist or mount a heavy iron pipe bracket to the wall. Hang a rustic wooden ladder or a metal grid from the brackets using heavy chains. Use S-hooks to suspend your pots, pans, and colanders. This clears up entire lower cabinets for groceries and small appliances.
