1. If your counter-top is relatively clear, other than a few items such as salt, pepper and vinegar, then this tip is for you. You can easily improve the aesthetics of your kitchen countertop by elevating those items using a basket.

2. Everybody keeps soap  and sponges near their sink right? How many of you simply place them on your window-sill, or directly on the kitchen countertop? Here’s a great alternative. You can use a vintage container to hold all of these items. This makes cleaning the kitchen much easier, and also makes your kitchen look gorgeous.

3. You can also use a cake stand for ingredients! If you cook a lot, why not use a cake stand (or two) to hold key ingredients such as chocolate chips and raisins? We love this idea, and it looks absolutely wonderful in any kitchen, especially if you can find a cake stand with the same colour scheme as your kitchen.

4. A tray next to your hob is not only practical, but is aesthetically pleasing. Extra points if you use a natural wood tray…
