Kitchen Storage Idea: Hang and Frame Your Utensils

Last week Jessica asked for good ways to store utensils off the countertop, and we suggested hanging them on the wall. Well, here courtesy of IKEA Hacker, winner of the Home Tech category in this year's Homies Awards, is a way to take your utensil wall display to a whole new level!

Michelle has the same problem as Jessica: No counter space. So she used an IKEA RIBBA frame and a long door handle to create a symmetrical, playful display of her utensils on the wall, with a magnetic spice rack underneath.

We like this idea: Framing and displaying your wall storage areas makes them look more intentional and purposeful, and it also highlights the best tools of a cook's kitchen!

Do you have any tools on the wall in your kitchen?

A display like this would drive me nuts. It's perfect for a commercial kitchen but not every small house. I'm really fussy about neatness and want a clean, clutter free kitchen.

I have the opposite problem - no wall space! It's all cabinets, doorways, and windows! No hanging things from the ceiling either, as there's a large fluroescent light (not as bad as it sounds) in the main galley.

Cute idea! I know people without countertop space are always looking for new storage ideas.
