1. A plastic bag dispenser, because your bag of plastic bags is too much for the average drawer. This product will help you save the turtles and avoid paying for plastic bags at the store.
2. A handy mobile shelf to squeeze the most out of those teeny crevices in your home. You can store canned food, seasoning, hair supplies, accessories — anything really. With four wheels, this mobile unit is totally easy to move.
Promising review: "Excellent storage space. I cleared up two kitchen shelves by moving items to this unit. Place heavy items on the bottom so that it is not top-heavy. The shelves are deep so it’s not practical to place short size items. I used oatmeal boxes, cereal boxes, protein shakes, and my collection of gluten-free flours." —Shark
Get it from Amazon for $36.78.
3. A set of spice organizers to transform your messy cabinet into a literal grocery aisle. No more wasting money on seasoning you forgot you had just because it was collecting dust at the back of your cabinet.
Promising review: "This has made a huge difference in being able to see all of our spices and if I had more spices I’d buy even more of these because they are simply wonderful! This has been installed for over a year now and still works as well as when I first installed it. No holders have broken and nothing has peeled off the cabinets or anything." —Scott
Get it from Amazon for $10.95.
4. A produce hammock so you can ~hang out~ with your fruits and veggies while keeping the counter clear.
Knapps Knots is a woman-owned business based in San Diego, California specializing in handmade macrame crafts.
Promising review: "It’s LOVELY! The rods are a little long for under my cabinets but I made it work & it still looks beautiful. I couldn’t be happier. Beautiful craftsmanship. I had no counter space left so I had to have it. I posted to Snapchat & my Instagram and Facebook stories. I have already gotten tons of compliments from people saying they have to get one too! The personalized note & packaging was such a cute touch! Oh and super fast shipping, too!" —Hannah Campbell
Get it from on KnappsKnots Etsy for $27.90+ (available in two sizes and 11 colors).
5. A set of refrigerator storage bins to stack your refrigerator like a bodega freezer. No need to excavate everything to locate that condiment last seen in 2014.
The set includes two wide drawers, two narrow drawers, a can dispenser, and an egg container.
Promising review: "The containers are sturdy and work great! Before my fridge looked like a mess you'd find on an episode of Hoarders — now we're ready for a photo shoot with Martha Stewart! Perhaps that is a slight exaggeration, but truly, I couldn't get a bottle of salad dressing out before without putting three jars of jelly on the counter, knocking over a bottle of ketchup, and stepping on the dog. Now I just open the fridge, pull out the drawer, and take what I need. The dog never even has time to get underfoot!" —hari sharma
Get them from Amazon for $31.49+ (available in two sizes).
6. A pan and lid organizer so you don't wake up the neighbors sifting through a pile of pans. Start storing your pots horizontally or vertically with this for ease of use.
Promising review: "This rack is perfect. I put my largest skillet on the bottom and smallest at the top. I did not secure the rack with the screws that came with it so I can easily move it if I move my pots and pans area. Even without securing it to the cabinet, it works perfectly and doesn't shift when I remove a pan. I also appreciate the color: others I have seen are shiny silver, which I did not want. I will be buying another one of these for our cabin. I have already recommended this rack to friends." —CustomerO
Get it from Amazon for $16.47.
7. An over-the-door basket to tame the sea of plastic bags overflowing from your cabinet. The slots are perfect for storing pans and cutting boards as well 😊.
Promising review: "This organizer is so useful! I recently moved and ended up with a much smaller kitchen, so I've been doing everything I can to make sure there's a place for everything and no wasted space. Luckily, I have pretty wide cabinets, so this works out perfectly. I have one holding my cutting boards (four standard plastic boards) and another holding my foil, cling wrap, and parchment paper boxes. The organizer is super easy to assemble and it's completely versatile. You can hang it over the cabinet door or attach it to the wall/cabinet door, which means it's great for renters and owners." —Kerry
Get it from Amazon for $17.97.
8. A wooden silverware organizer that is so satisfying to look at because there's a compartment for literally everything — the first rule of tidying up.
Promising review: "This is a wonderful product! We’ve been putting up with individual plastic silverware trays for years, which don’t hold everything, slide around, and look grungy. I put this tray in the drawer, slid it out to the width our drawer allows, and voila! A full drawer tray that holds all our goodies (including two sets of silverware). Couldn’t be more pleased." —James D. Hudson, Jr.
Get it from Amazon for $27.99+ (available in two styles).
9. Or, a compact cutlery organizing tray so you can keep your knives and forks organized while still having space in the drawer for other things.
Promising review: "I have a tiny kitchen with only three drawers, so space is at a premium. My silverware organizer took up almost all of one drawer, so this organizer is a godsend. You can fit quite a few spoons, etc. in each slot. My beater attachments fit perfectly into the top two hollows. You NEED this if you have a small kitchen with few drawers!" —mialro
Get it from Amazon for $11.99.
10. A magnetic strip that'll cut 🔪 down on drawer clutter and show off your cooking utensils. Imagine all the metal things that'll stick on this 😁.
Promising review: "I love the knife bar. It was absolutely simple to install. I installed mine in sheetrock and it took me literally about five minutes. The bar is so sturdy and I have six knives, a set of measuring spoons, and a meat thermometer on mine. I ordered this because one of my drawers broke because it was so heavy and I had to reduce the weight. This not only helped in that regard, but it also looks cool on the wall. Two thumbs up!" —earthgarden
Get the metal one from Amazon for $17.99+ (available in two sizes).
11. Or a chic wooden knife stand designed with magnets on both sides that hold up to eight kitchen knives. So the next time you're facing off Bobby Flay (in your head) you can reach for your sharpest tool quickly without having to rummage around in multiple drawers.
Material is an Asian-owned small business that creates tasteful and sustainable kitchenware built for the home.
Promising review: "Loving how compact and design worthy this stand is. We have our trio knives on one side, and the table knives + scissors on the other. Elevate your kitchen!" —Delaina LeRoy L.
Get it from Material for $90 (available in two finishes).
12. A mounted dry food dispenser to minimize kitchen mess. No more stepping on Cheerios because your independent child poured the cereal. Simply turn the knob and dispense food right into your bowl. It's probably more hygienic since less contact means fewer germs, right?
13. A kitchen tower that you'll use daily starting the day it arrives. Heavy and sturdy, you'll be pleased whether you use it as a drying rack and/or a part time bag holder.
Check out a BuzzFeeder's review of this amazing multi-use kitchen rack (#1).
Promising review: "I stumbled on this product searching for something to dry bottles. I am so glad I took a chance on it. I love it for drying bottles. It does everything the reviews list. I was sold on it because it looked so easy to store, but honestly it hasn't left my counter top since it arrived. The way it opens and adjusts lends itself to any number of uses. My favorite part it that I can hold up large awkward items like cookie sheets and a 9x13 pan to dry. I have used it for holding open gallon bags to fill. Such a simple design and well executed." —My Old KY Home
Get it from Amazon for $19+ (available in two colors).
14. A set of silicone stretch lids because why shouldn't lids be universal? Saran wrap wasn't really cutting it anyway, just use these.
You'll receive seven silicone stretch lids ranging from sizes 2.8" to 9.1" diameters, plus a large bonus party bowl lid! These are free of BPA, lead, plastic, and phthalates. Plus, they're dishwasher- and freezer-safe!
Promising review: "These lids are great! No more searching for the right lid. They're especially helpful for my glass bowls. I've never had success with plastic wrap, so these feel like a miracle. I love that they'll stretch to cover a bowl that's too full to fit it's lid, so finding the right container for leftovers just got a lot easier." —Vanessa Brannan
Get them from Amazon for $15.99.
15. Some elegant spice and pantry labels with timeless, easy-to-read typography so going through your pantry isn't as stressful.
Promising review: "These labels are beyond my expectation! I'm totally in love with the way they look. My pantry looks so organized and modern. I’m in love and will definitely purchase from this shop again!!" —Sandra Yzaguirre
Real And Vibrant is a woman-owned small business. When cook and author Sapana Chandra was looking for a way to organizer her spice drawer, she just decided to create her own durable, beautiful, and modern labels. She's been selling them on Etsy since 2020. This bundle has labels for both spices and pantry items — you can see what is included in each set in the description for the item. And if there are labels not included that you're interested in you can always custom order the spices or pantry labels you need.
Get the set from Real + Vibrant on Etsy for $36+ (available in 20-, 40-, or 80-packs for both spice and pantry sets, plus in four sizes for spices, and three sizes for pantry).
16. A lid organizer to solve the age old problem of never knowing where your tupperware lids are 🙄. With this, your drawer won't have to be an avalanche or even worse...a black hole.
Promising review: "This product does exactly what it's supposed to and does it well. In under 15 minutes I took my nightmare lid drawer and turned it into a functional, convenient storage space. The dividers were simple to install and provided flexibility. Slowly but surely I am getting my tiny, chaotic kitchen under control, and this got me a huge leap closer." —S. Hawthorn
Get it from Amazon for $16.99+ (available in a variety of sizes and styles).
17. A lidded Simplehuman trash can that you won't have to touch at all. Waste management is key to a pristine kitchen. Fortunately, it won't disturb you when it opens and closes. This is easily the best trash can you'll ever own — and it keeps pests at bay.
Promising review: "This is exactly what I was looking for. This can is compact, very functional, and very well built. It looks 1000 times better than my old can and doesn't scoot around on my laminate floors and mark up my wall like the old one. It is definitely worth every penny. The only problem is an existential one...I just spent $150 on a trash can and was genuinely excited when it was delivered to my door. What happened to the young man that spent his dollars on booze, trendy clothes, and video games? Replaced by a man that reads reviews on trash cans online, comparing warranties and features. A warranty? On a trash can? For God's sake... Then there is the giddy excitement when his expensive waste receptacle finally arrives, punctuated by the time spent writing another review for some poor soul like me. Some poor soul with a very nice trash can!" —J. Nelson
Get it from Amazon for $129.99+ (available in three sizes and four sizes.
18. A set of cube shelves because they're an amazing open and closed storage solution that make a pretty cute coffee station. Put a few baskets in there to style your mess or stack a few units together to divide a room.
Promising review: "I am crazy about these. I've had them for years and use them as a TV stand and leave one vertical piece out so I have a spot for my Blu-Ray player and DVR. It's still nice and sturdy. The fabric drawers never hold up well for me, but I have cats who think these are here for their claw-sharpening needs, so that shortens their lifespan dramatically (of the drawers, not my cats!). I finally came up with a solution and made drawer 'fronts' with extra peel-'n'-stick vinyl floor tiles I had, some decorative heavy-duty paper and some knobs. I just attach them via the knobs to the front of the fabric drawers and voilà. The cats leave them alone and I love love love how it looks. Now the front stays nice and straight even when the fabric drawer behind it is bloated and warped. My DIY artsy-fartsy crafty side is loving how customizable these can be. So many ideas! My TV weighs 67 lbs and these have no problem supporting it. I do recommend securing them to the wall especially if you're in an earthquake-prone place like me. I have about four of these throughout my home. They are amazing space savers. I get compliments on them all the time and can't recommend them enough." —messy
Get it from Amazon for $43.99+ (available in eight sizes and seven colors).
19. A bottle rack that allows the, um, vertically challenged 😏 among us to see 👁 the water bottles. No more standing on our tippy toes in front of a cabinet.
Promising review: "LOVE LOVE LOVE this water bottle organizer! It's it's easy to find and reach our water bottles every time. You do fit last bottles standing straight up versus in the holder but it is absolutely worth it. Bonus is my cabinet looks neat and organized again where the water bottles usually are stored away." —Olga S.
Get it from Amazon for $26.49 (available in three colors and two sizes).
20. A small shelf mug holder complete with removable hooks because tea and coffee drinkers know there's never enough cabinet space.
Promising review: "I absolutely adored this shelf from the reviews and photos, so I ordered it and received yesterday. It is the finishing touch on any room! My counter space and cabinets are sparse at my townhome and my coffee mugs were collecting on the counter. I installed this shelf this morning and it is everything I wanted! It’s SUPER easy to install and comes with everything you need (not the drill, hammer, or mugs, obviously). It’s super cute and does exactly what I needed it to! Now I want to order more... you could definitely use this in the bathroom or any other room besides the kitchen." —Angela Tims
Get it from Amazon for $17.99+ (available in six colors).
21. Or, consider a mug holder tree for your counter if you're not comfortable or allowed to go through the walls.
Promising review: "I love this tree! My mugs continuously were being pushed out of my crowded cupboards. This tree keeps them safe and is a great way to display your favorite mugs. Even better, I have more room for my other glasses in my cupboard now. Not overcrowded either, and a full six mugs could fit (I chose to just display my fandom mugs). Easy assembly, nice quality, and well priced too!" —Jasmine Hall
Get it from Amazon for $15.85.
22. A helpful wine rack so compact, it fits on counters *and* clearly displays your bottles for hosting purposes.
Promising review: "I love it, very sturdy. The adjustable feet are awesome for uneven flooring. Mine is on carpet as close to wall as possible. The wine rack sat very nicely I didn't even have to raise the front. It's been there three days tomorrow. I'm going to recheck the sturdiness again I just put 18 bottles of wine in the rack, I wanted it all to settle down before rechecking. It looks Awesome. It's not very tall I think it's just right since I have a wall wine rack, this one sits perfect underneath the wall rack. So easy and simple to assemble." —Audrey Diane Salyers
Get it from Amazon for $34.99.
23. A Caraway ceramic nonstick cookware set that comes with magnetic lid holders *and* stands for each pot and pan. The fun colors and storage components have made my kitchen so much less of a nightmare.
The set includes a fry pan, sauce pan and lid, sauté pan and lid, Dutch oven and lid, plus a magnetic pan rack and a canvas lid holder.
Promising review: "This is one of the best investments I have ever made! The style is beautiful and sleek, yet very functional! It makes cleaning them a breeze after use! I’m so glad I replaced my old pans with a new healthier product like Caraway! I will definitely be purchasing from them again!!" —Clay S.
Get it from Caraway Home for $395 (originally $495; available in six colors).
24. A lazy Susan turntable to locate your many, many condiments with the flick of your wrist. Nothing hurts like realizing you already had something you just repurchased because the fridge is a black hole.
Promising review: "Our fridge is extremely deep and we’re constantly 'losing' or forgetting what items we have in the back, but not anymore! The nonstick pad works great to keep heavy or large items from falling off, and with a touch of a finger, you can completely spin around. I’m so happy with this product, I’ll be purchasing more for other areas of my house:-)" —Moorefoto17
Get it from Amazon for $8.46 (available in 19 colors).
25. A 3D-printed appliance cord organizer because it neatly latches onto blenders, food processors, and other appliances that don't have built-in cord management.
3D Home Solutions is a Texas-based Etsy shop that specializes in 3D-printed homewares. Each cord organizer comes with a medium-sized Command strip for easy installation and removal.
Promising review: "Received this super fast! And it works amazing!!! I don’t have to worry about my cord to my mixer just bunched up or wrapped around the base. Went on super easy, very durable from what I can tell. And the cord easily clips into place. I love how much this is helping me save space! Thank you again!!" —Cat Cisneros
Get it from 3D Home Solutions on Etsy for $10 (available in three colors).
26. A two-shelf cabinet organizer for deep yet narrow closed spaces that aren't the easiest to see. Its secret drawer makes the cabinet's contents much more accessible.
Promising review: "These are nice pieces that helped me organize underneath my bathroom sink! They fit perfectly! After organizing everything, I was so surprised I had so much more room that I grabbed more items out of the linen closet to fill it up. I still have a lot of room left. I bought these based off the high ratings and they hold true. (This is Brad's wife.)" —Brad J. Leahy
Get it on Amazon for $27.97+ (also available in bronze).
