I realized that the staple wrapping products (e.g. foil, parchment paper, etc.) found commonly in kitchens are currently taking up an entire drawer in my kitchen. Although I’ve been lucky to have a lot more drawer and cupboard space than I did say five years ago, the extra space has motivated me to become a more active cook. Unfortunately, with the growing interest in cooking so does grow the quantity of tools, small appliances and other necessities. So, space has already become limited and on top of that, the drawers aren’t very organized.
So, I really like the idea of creating new storage capacity behind cabinet doors – something that has already been very effective in other spaces like baths that feature cabinets.
Here are some mountable wire wrap storage solutions to tackle this problem:

If you’re like me and have tons of cutting boards designated for preparing different foods, you might have also run into the dilemma of efficiently storing them. They used to be stacked up against my back splash until I read about a tip to organize them with magazine file boxes. I really like this solution as the boxes are usually upright and thus, take up less counter space in the process while neatly keeping all my boards in one, easy-to-access spot.
It seems most of the magazine file boxes on the net are made of recycled cardboard-like material, so I don’t think this would work in a wet-space like a kitchen. So, here are some durable plastic solutions.
The fact that this box is considered “jumbo” is a plus as cutting boards tend to be slightly wider than magazines usually.
