There is just nothing like a wall-mounted utensil rack to help keep your kitchen organized and to have your utensils at hand when you need them. They come in all sorts of designs and styles, but the main consideration is that it is easy to place or hang your favorite utensils when they are not in use.
Wall-mounted utensil racks are a great way to extend your kitchen’s storage capability. While it is often a good thing to have the right utensil for the job, it can be difficult to find a place for everything in a well-appointed kitchen. Even in this age of decluttering, work is often made easier with the right tool to take care of the task at hand. Wall racks and locating multi-purpose items is key to having what you need, when you need it and not having to search for it in a bottom drawer or the back of a cabinet.
Stainless Steel with Sliding Hooks
A bowed band of stainless steel with an assortment of sliding hooks, this style of utensil rack is easy to mount and easy to hang an assortment of utensils. The hooks allow for arranging the items in any order or number (within reason) desired. The only drawback to this style of utensil rack is that it doesn’t allow for utensils that do not come with a hole in the handle.
Wrought Iron Basket with Hooks and Towel Rack
Combining beauty and utilitarianism, a rack like this is perfect for hanging just about anything from potholders and towels to cutting boards and large spoons. The wrought iron basket is a fantastic place to put the spices and other non-perishable condiments that you use most often.
Magnetic Knife Holder
Keep your knives at hand where they are not likely to be dulled or nicked by being jostled about in a drawer with other utensils. A strong magnet will readily keep your stainless and carbon steel knives organized and where you can find them. Whether you are looking for the good paring knife for preparing potatoes or the cleaver for chopping carrots or parsnips, you can be sure the knife you want is visible when you need it.
Ceiling Mounted Hanging Shelf
In some kitchens, it seems as if there is just not enough room for everything. A shelf unit with hooks on its edges can be a handy place to store pots, pans, spoons, ladles and more. Light-weight utensils such as sifters, colanders and even small aluminum saucepans are naturals for this kind of storage. Suspend it above a table or countertop where no one is likely to bump their head on a low-hanging utensil.
