Store your utensils\u00a0inside the cabinet door\u00a0to avoid taking up valuable drawer space. This is really the perfect spot to hang many of your kitchen utensils. You can also install some wood spice racks for some of your favorite spices, like parsley, garlic, and onion powder. What a cool idea!\n</p><p><img fetchpriority='\"high\"' decoding='\"async\"' class='\"' wp-image-8182 aligncenter src="%5C%22http:%5C/%5C/alternatech.net%5C/wp-content%5C/uploads%5C/2021%5C/06%5C/64e9bc10431ecaba57b4950bb5fe6328-300x300.jpg%5C%22" alt='\"\"' width='\"440\"' height='\"440\"' srcset='\"https:\/\/inovatestory.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/64e9bc10431ecaba57b4950bb5fe6328-300x300.jpg' https: sizes='\"(max-width:'>\n</p><h3>DIY Rotating Utensil Caddy\n</h3><p>Have you ever pictured in your mind what you needed or wanted, but couldn\u2019t find it in a store? What if you could DIY it? Make your own\u00a0rotating utensil caddy\u00a0with a wooden circle, (a lazy susan) and some stylish stainless steel cups. This is actually pretty simple to make and you can glue the stainless steel cups onto the top of the utensil caddy. Pretty sweet right?\n</p><p><img decoding='\"async\"' class='\"' wp-image-8183 aligncenter src="%5C%22http:%5C/%5C/alternatech.net%5C/wp-content%5C/uploads%5C/2021%5C/06%5C/DIY-Rotating-Utensil-Caddy-crop-229x300.jpg%5C%22" alt='\"\"' width='\"339\"' height='\"444\"' srcset='\"https:\/\/inovatestory.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/DIY-Rotating-Utensil-Caddy-crop-229x300.jpg' https: sizes='\"(max-width:'>\n</p><h3>Rotating Lazy Susan Installed Under Your Cabinet\n</h3><p>Install a rotating\u00a0Lazy Susan under your cabinet\u00a0to hang and organize your utensils. You can easily turn it, to get whatever you need. No more digging through drawers, because who wants to do that? You can also make the most of your drawer space with the help of\u00a0diagonal drawers. They give you space for extra length!\n</p><p><img decoding='\"async\"' class='\"' wp-image-8184 aligncenter src="%5C%22http:%5C/%5C/alternatech.net%5C/wp-content%5C/uploads%5C/2021%5C/06%5C/28b85e101799a3e27da8e574d6f1a5a0-224x300.jpg%5C%22" alt='\"\"' width='\"314\"' height='\"421\"' srcset='\"https:\/\/inovatestory.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/28b85e101799a3e27da8e574d6f1a5a0-224x300.jpg' https: sizes='\"(max-width:'>\n</p><h3>Pegboard Kitchen Organizer\n</h3><p>Install a pegboard\u00a0on the wall to hang your utensils and other small items. This is also an excellent way to clean up space from your cabinets and your drawers! You\u2019ll need a sheet of pegboard from your local hardware store which you can paint any color you like. To hang your utensils, you\u2019ll also need some pegboard hooks, but make sure you know how many you\u2019ll need (first), so you don\u2019t have to go back to the store. Isn\u2019t this a cool space-saving idea?\n</p><p><img loading='\"lazy\"' decoding='\"async\"' class='\"' wp-image-8185 aligncenter src="%5C%22http:%5C/%5C/alternatech.net%5C/wp-content%5C/uploads%5C/2021%5C/06%5C/b3d7a86b179ad08b4ce8b91013a58a27-200x300.jpg%5C%22" alt='\"\"' width='\"334\"' height='\"501\"' srcset='\"https:\/\/inovatestory.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/b3d7a86b179ad08b4ce8b91013a58a27-200x300.jpg' https: sizes='\"(max-width:'>\n</p><h3>Nostalgic Crock Utensil Holder\n</h3><p>I love\u00a0this utensil crock idea\u00a0because it would make such a great housewarming gift! Write your favorite cookie recipe on a cookie jar, and use that to hold your utensils. This would also make a nostalgic gift to give at Christmas or to pass down to your children. You could add more than one favorite recipe to your crock to hold your utensils. What a great way to keep your countertops neat and clutter-free.\n</p><p><img loading='\"lazy\"' decoding='\"async\"' class='\"' wp-image-8186 aligncenter src="%5C%22http:%5C/%5C/alternatech.net%5C/wp-content%5C/uploads%5C/2021%5C/06%5C/kitchen-crocks-200x300.jpg%5C%22" alt='\"\"' width='\"307\"' height='\"461\"' srcset='\"https:\/\/inovatestory.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/kitchen-crocks-200x300.jpg' https: sizes='\"(max-width:'>\n</p><h3>Organize Utensils for Small Spaces\n</h3><p>Install\u00a0a towel bar and shower curtain hooks to\u00a0hang your utensils\u00a0on the wall or inside cabinet doors. You can also install a magnetic strip to hang your knives alongside, so it\u2019s convenient to reach everything. This option is good if you have very little drawer space in your kitchen because hanging utensils on the wall is a great space saver. A hook or two on the wall can also be handy for other things, like your hand towels. This is such a great idea for small kitchens.\n</p><p><img loading='\"lazy\"' decoding='\"async\"' class='\"' wp-image-8187 aligncenter src="%5C%22http:%5C/%5C/alternatech.net%5C/wp-content%5C/uploads%5C/2021%5C/06%5C/at_archive_9ae8a113545030faed2def67173c840d5ef3df23-300x169.jpg%5C%22" alt='\"\"' width='\"391\"' height='\"220\"' srcset='\"https:\/\/inovatestory.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/at_archive_9ae8a113545030faed2def67173c840d5ef3df23-300x169.jpg' https: sizes='\"(max-width:'>\n</p><h3>Super Cute Tin Cans to Organize Utensils\n</h3><p>Clean and paint\u00a0tin cans to serve as utensil holders. Aren\u2019t they charming? With clean, empty tin cans, painter\u2019s tape, a paintbrush, and your favorite colors of paint, this can turn into a super fun project. Before you begin, make sure to file the edges of the cans at the top with a metal filer, because those edges can be sharp. Also, you\u2019ll want to let the paint dry completely between colors, so the lines look neater.\n</p><p><img loading='\"lazy\"' decoding='\"async\"' class='\"aligncenter\"' src="%5C%22https:%5C/%5C/www.onecrazyhouse.com%5C/wp-content%5C/uploads%5C/2021%5C/05%5C/painted-tin-cans-utensil-holder-750.jpg%5C%22" alt='\"painted' tin cans serving as utensil organizers width='\"619\"' height='\"619\"'>\n</p><h3>Charming Utensil Holder with Mason Jars\n</h3><p>Clamp mason jars to a wooden plank\u00a0to create this charmingly rustic utensil holder. What a creative way to add a little country charm to your area. You\u2019ll have to secure the back of this with something if you don\u2019t hang it, because the weight in the front could cause it to tip forward. Or you can permanently attach the wood to a wall, like next to your outdoor grill or in your kitchen. Add silverware to the jars or you can store serving spoons and spatulas if you\u2019d prefer.\n</p><p><img loading='\"lazy\"' decoding='\"async\"' class='\"' wp-image-8189 aligncenter src="%5C%22http:%5C/%5C/alternatech.net%5C/wp-content%5C/uploads%5C/2021%5C/06%5C/utensil-organization-750-300x200.jpg%5C%22" alt='\"\"' width='\"348\"' height='\"232\"' srcset='\"https:\/\/inovatestory.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/utensil-organization-750-300x200.jpg' https: sizes='\"(max-width:'>\n</p><h3>Organize Your Utensils in an Upright Drawer\n</h3><p>We love this deep drawer that allows for\u00a0upright utensil storage. What a great way to make use of large drawers. We remodeled our kitchen last fall and I have those big deep drawers that things seem to get lost in. This would definitely make cooking more fun because everything would be easy to find\n</p><p><img loading='\"lazy\"' decoding='\"async\"' class='\"' wp-image-8190 aligncenter src="%5C%22http:%5C/%5C/alternatech.net%5C/wp-content%5C/uploads%5C/2021%5C/06%5C/upright-utensil-storage1-750-200x300.jpg%5C%22" alt='\"\"' width='\"359\"' height='\"539\"' srcset='\"https:\/\/inovatestory.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/upright-utensil-storage1-750-200x300.jpg' https: sizes='\"(max-width:'>\n</p><h3>Organize Utensils With an Old Rake\n</h3><p>If you\u2019re going for the farmhouse look in your kitchen, this\u00a0rake utensil holder\u00a0would look amazing! It gives your kitchen that nice vintage look while making organization easier for you. Attach the rake to your board using a screw, but remember to remove the rake handle first. You can add hooks to either side of it to hang more items, like pretty potholders.\n</p><p><img loading='\"lazy\"' decoding='\"async\"' class='\"' wp-image-8191 aligncenter src="%5C%22http:%5C/%5C/alternatech.net%5C/wp-content%5C/uploads%5C/2021%5C/06%5C/Rake-utensil-holder-750-132x300.jpg%5C%22" alt='\"\"' width='\"284\"' height='\"645\"' srcset='\"https:\/\/inovatestory.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Rake-utensil-holder-750-132x300.jpg' https: sizes='\"(max-width:'>\n</p><h3>Build Your Own Utensil Drawer Dividers\n</h3><p>Can\u2019t find drawer dividers to fit your needs?\u00a0Build your own\u00a0to accommodate your specific utensils. It\u2019s easier than you might think! This was done with simple pieces of hobby wood, some carpenters glue, and wax paper underneath (to protect the drawer while drying). You can also line your drawer with your favorite liner once the project is done.\n</p><p><img loading='\"lazy\"' decoding='\"async\"' class='\"' wp-image-8192 aligncenter src="%5C%22http:%5C/%5C/alternatech.net%5C/wp-content%5C/uploads%5C/2021%5C/06%5C/drawer-utensil-holder-750-200x300.jpg%5C%22" alt='\"\"' width='\"364\"' height='\"546\"' srcset='\"https:\/\/inovatestory.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/drawer-utensil-holder-750-200x300.jpg' https: sizes='\"(max-width:'>\n</p><h3>Turn a Cheese Grater into a Utensil Holder\n</h3><p>Attach a cheese grater to an old board\u00a0(upside down) to serve as utensil storage or a planter. You can attach something to the back or top of it for easy hanging, like a chain or a rope or string. Add in your kitchen spoons, spatulas, or even whisks, and you\u2019re all set to go. You can also use this for other things too, like holding pretty flowers or even storing rolled-up kitchen towels or washcloths. Plus, it\u2019s magnetic so you can add a little note or even a picture to the outside.\n</p><p><img loading='\"lazy\"' decoding='\"async\"' class='\"' wp-image-8193 aligncenter src="%5C%22http:%5C/%5C/alternatech.net%5C/wp-content%5C/uploads%5C/2021%5C/06%5C/cheese-grater-utensil-holder-750-200x300.jpg%5C%22" alt='\"\"' width='\"364\"' height='\"546\"' srcset='\"https:\/\/inovatestory.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/cheese-grater-utensil-holder-750-200x300.jpg' https: sizes='\"(max-width:'>\n</p><h3>\u00a0DIY Cutting Board Utensil Holder\n</h3><p>Attach a dish towel to a wooden cutting board\u00a0to make the perfect utensil holder for your outdoor cooking space. Won\u2019t it look great by the grill? It\u2019s easy to carry your utensils back and forth from the kitchen to grill using these utensil holders.
