Buying Guide

The kitchen is one of the rooms in the home which is often likely to get messy and untidy. Keeping it clean is often an effort which must be collectively managed by the entire household. If you're struggling to keep on top of your kitchen, a good way to improve instantly is to buy storage items for various pieces of cutlery and crockery. You will soon find that your kitchen looks less messy than it did before! Here are a few things to think about when buying ceramic utensil holders for your kitchen.

How many utensils can a standard canister hold?

Most utensil holders are capable of holding around six large utensils. Based on this, you can check out the drawers and cupboards of your kitchen to decide how many utensil holders you think you need to buy.

You should think about how many items you have in your kitchen which could be stored in a ceramic utensil holder crock. If you have quite a large collection, you should consider buying more than one utensil holder and splitting the items between them.

How to match the color of a utensil holder with kitchen decor?

Matching the color of a utensil holder with the kitchen's color palette will depend on the number of items you are going to purchase. If you are going to buy more than one, you should think about either a matching pair or several holders that match and complement each other.

One utensil holder: For those buying just one holder, consider the décor of your kitchen, paying particular attention to any existing storage items which you already have. If you have holders already to contain other items, try to find something which matches the color or at least complements it. For example, if you already have a black ceramic utensil holder, buy another which is white or cream. You could even be a little more adventurous and opt for something bright such as red or blue, but always taking into account the colors already in the kitchen.
Two utensil holders: This is a common number of utensil holders to buy, since not many people have in excess of ten utensils. The nice thing about buying a pair of utensil holders is that you can experiment with the colors. For example, if you have themed your kitchen around two particular colors, you can use these as inspiration when you go shopping for utensil holders.
More than two utensil holders: Choosing the right colors when you're buying three or more utensil holders can be a challenge. You can choose either two of the same colors and one different one, three of the same color, or three different colors altogether. With ceramic holders, there is a wide range of colors available once you start shopping, and you may even come across utensil holder sets which already have suitable colors that work together.

Once you've decided that you want to buy ceramic utensil holders, the only things left to decide are how many holders to buy and which colors you want. This can be a fun shopping trip, and there are plenty of ideas to be found online.
