What a huge difference!!! I absolutely LOATHE corner cabinets. Whenever I’m able to afford building my own home, I’m designing the kitchen to not have any corner cabinets 😂
I have a raggedy under the sink cabinet that seems unusable to me, but watch your videos makes me think I and make it work I plan to put shelf liner on the bottom, use the lights and covered bin so THANK YO SOOO MUCH
Very large plastic bins. You could place 2 or 3 on the cabinet bottom and load several appliances in each bin. Plastic bins slide easily, so the deeper into the left of that corner cabinet you go, the more infrequent the use of the appliance stored there. So, just slide out the bins to find the appliance you need. The upper shelf in that cabinet would require shallower bins to use the same way. How hard could that be? Adhesive strips are easier to remove if you heat it with a blow dryer. Most adhesives are oil-based, so heat softens or even liquifies the gummy oil and releases from the surface adhered to. If any residue remains, flood it with cooking oil and the next day wash it off with full-strength dishwashing liquid before rinsing and wiping. As for the free-floating power outlet for the dishwasher, I would be concerned about the dishwasher flood and reaching that outlet! You should get a good adhesive strip or glue and attach it high on the cabinet side in that blind end. Dash is a great company for small kitchen appliances. I have the regular waffle maker, which I use for sweet waffles and savory potato pancakes. I also have the egg cooker, which makes PERFECT hard-boiled eggs that slide easily out of their shells. I've also recently picked up the mini egg bite maker (which can also make oil-free grilled cheese sandwiches) and an electric citrus juicer (which makes fresh orange juice incredibly fast). If you're going to add to your collection of Dash-brand holiday waffle makers, you might consider dedicating the little frosted bin you were using to 'file' your family of waffle makers sitting on their hinge end. How I store my appliances... I live in a studio apartment, so my kitchen is very tiny with almost no countertop. Base cabinets run about 8ft, from the fridge to a knee wall at the other end. There's a 13-inch wide bit of countertop between the fridge and the 24-inch stove, and squeezed between the fridge and stove is a toaster oven pushed to the back. There's a cutting board made specifically for sitting safely atop the toaster over, on which is my Bella rocket blender. The Dash egg cooker sits next to the blender and the Dash waffle maker lives in the pencil drawer directly below. (The pencil drawer is my Utility Drawer so named to cause more intentionality in what goes in it than if it was called a "junk drawer".) Squeezed in between the stove and the 22-inch sink is my microwave. That leaves only 8-nches of countertop depth in front of the microwave, where its door swings open. I've begun using a large cutting board laid across the open top drawer of my drawer base cabinet to provide a food prep area. I've also mounted a magnetic knife holder to the inside of the wall cabinet door above to gain more room for gadgets and cooking tools in the drawer. Between the sink and the knee wall is space recently opened up by getting rid of the two-tiered dish rack and instead using a wire dish rack that spans the sink. The countertop is now occupied mostly by a countertop ice maker, which I have going 24/7 because I use ice a lot (iced drinks and smoothies) and my freezer is too small to even accommodate an ice tray. The 13-inch base cabinet below has a few random appliance accessories and a butane burner inside (I'm still shuffling things around). I currently have my toaster in there, but I'm thinking of parking it on top of the fridge (if I keep it). I've set up a 7-level shelving unit in one corner of my kitchen that has a quarter-pie-shaped footprint; I call it my "Appliance Tree". It holds my 3-qt slow cooker, 3.5 cup rice cooker, Dash citrus juicer, a vegetable juicer, a 3.5 cup KitchenAid stand mixer (which I may be getting rid of soon), a Dash hand mixer, and an empty shelf. The only other base cabinet I have is the sink base cabinet, which has an Ikea trash bin on a pullout shelf. My kitchen is small but densely packed.
I have grain mill small coffee grinder small waffle iron two blinders with accessories choppers grader juicer slicer electric can opener dehydrator Air fryer mixers & popcorn paper .? And I'm in apt .

Yes! Same here - they're a black hole.
Thanks much for the video
Thank you for this video ❤
Thanks for sharing. I recently organized my corner cabinet using your method. The countertop is clear of clutter now!
Wonderful!
I have a raggedy under the sink cabinet that seems unusable to me, but watch your videos makes me think I and make it work
I plan to put shelf liner on the bottom, use the lights and covered bin so THANK YO SOOO MUCH
Yes! It will look brand new!

what vacuum did you use for the cabinets?
Looks like dyson
Love it really 👌👏👏
New sub. Thanks for sharing
Some great tricks there, but why keep appliances that you know you'll never use, like that egg cooker for instance?
