This drawer within a drawer in the island makes it easy to keep pots and lids separate and organized. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEheAnx2l8N3MZtbIU6_Pig6XA9ZdE22XHcLlyAh9rjV2HoS65s9P_AhLlf7NoMMKtDPmzPb7aDuSsiU1z_wdL1_RfVicSEGnoxsC8eZSaUupP4ydk2CafA3h5B41l7EJCYr13NQVL47oSO-/s1600/2014-Smart-Storage-Solutions-for-Small-Kitchen-Design-5.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">The homeowner was determined to infuse the kitchen with rich elements to give it distinction. The Calacatta marble tile backsplash, for example, runs up the wall to meet horizontally oriented beaded-board paneling, which also appears in the adjacent family room. Turning beaded board sideways creates strong horizontal lines that make walls appear longer. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh7KdnFbfSIuA_fDET78dn93zFFLT6-9sB1B0insIc5rNjcTsoWqGF6hf0r1tUeM41wHfiXhEPjUi0DNfrnp4dWEOuoPyovabmMgzvhhCZTwTNaQJBbTCEnRGpGSDcgrsBUh0C271Cen7ed/s1600/2014-Smart-Storage-Solutions-for-Small-Kitchen-Design-6.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">A sink made of the same material as the countertops presents a sleek, clean look. A window ledge provides bonus display and storage space behind the integrated sink and traditional bridge faucet. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiANm4aO9xeNTa5ck4ii3Q1OhvLJU5ndFqLpcDw-wLqIBsn34JLcDHDUMNNxOzBidLOnb5kFvVl3hUF5W1OBcrSNJEXG4puTvDraAjqYi_YXTT7v9agpHK1BNnOn6qMlTVhNl3kv45a4XRb/s1600/2014-Smart-Storage-Solutions-for-Small-Kitchen-Design-7.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">A firm believer in open storage, this homeowner uses shelves to keep everyday items easy to see and reach. Shelves next to the refrigerator hold the microwave and wine cooler; the latter frees up space in the fridge. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKHhkym0nUGGWcohvO0IzyzMsCPUnOYEBKjTiLkfWCnu68HyKj8ct4gCbqFzeEwbw0W5564uBRxixDlf-Nlfds-lUWFlOBnf51bsh8MPU8AXnVip48I2EVr_H3fafygbNqhpY84Up5qjZo/s1600/2014-Smart-Storage-Solutions-for-Small-Kitchen-Design-8.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">More open storage opposite the refrigerator wall is supported by shapely brackets. The dark metal complements similar tones in the floor, counters, doors, and window frames, and it adds pizzazz to simple open shelves that provide both display and storage space. The shelves keep items used every day in an easily accessible place, and a top shelf, which might be hard to reach, is used to showcase art and decorative objects rather than kitchen essentials. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhvMKYQfp9AtzB2oU8T3iNcZv0kPcZ57wqgRdlK9eyXm94vaVKehc3bqqhJIW758QnpxZyGht2WXuA8CluhTbkTc5bDZWAbDyPkCqZ5Hnf16-kmgdfp79inB5cgzcB8lvMpt7BKArgKU1hX/s1600/2014-Smart-Storage-Solutions-for-Small-Kitchen-Design-9.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">The space around the range was smartly outfitted for cooking. A knife drawer on one side of the range features an integrated cutting board for quick chopping. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjwOLO4QVoaQxZqyR0DiDNaCLTrRpxaQIQM_CjRILCcUQ6864EkAvQudqjH06Oagp7BYE7mmOOVb7GkJ1uPu5clpCyNdFefIqZ_AJnPS-Ho0zdxGCf5AklW5cFr5GO9h8eeO_WrBKBQyXT7/s1600/2014-Smart-Storage-Solutions-for-Small-Kitchen-Design-10.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">To the right of the range, a drawer stores spices neatly and out of the light, keeping them fresh and easy to grab when cooking at the range or doing prep work on the counter above. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj265apaSRY9syJW8-AngFupFqpGGELVUH3Ye1CSWhF9S6sL8ePGkfZ-q4yq1kwO2COr6ToGuy1CGvhl-RV9ibVRqD3sVLbUyRTbysbOFtSezn6lgKb0EiZ0zavppxzw2vuF3Lu0etasvDr/s1600/2014-Smart-Storage-Solutions-for-Small-Kitchen-Design-11.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">The small peninsula serves as a bar area, complete with undercounter beverage chillers and a pullout liquor cabinet. A deep, cased archway provides a gracious transition from the dining room to the colorful kitchen. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhWSd3afaKbM3mGOMmct8_HSzExKjvBJamHVrDVC3pN6kPH6JQUTC97Put8kSpXZfUOUlcrrhsFWEOxPNE8lLQkhn1H2WgTQO2UGd5uGxKhQ_wSFRPHR5D5O7ncwu_NCoOMmJ4A9sQE9CXg/s1600/2014-Smart-Storage-Solutions-for-Small-Kitchen-Design-12.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>Store Up High : </b>There wasn't enough space for a walk-in pantry, so the custom-designed cabinetry extends to the ceiling to maximize storage. A library ladder that rolls along a rail provides access to the top row of cabinets. Cleverly concealed pullouts store spices, bottles, platters, and trays. The slim pullout shelf below the pantry cabinet serves as a temporary landing space for items without permanently intruding on the walkway.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgUh8S6RnqBgwieS1xFDYsZOxaazlWe1iejXgEJdftTd1KOuhYMUkGFIed1llZ1dwtM7z3LEwWvRqYGZSiKh7omDW3EbTrCQxl90Y0L34GLiDGehFsgHye9ptSGS2gzLnJcwLWLQWaK3sVG/s1600/2014-Smart-Storage-Solutions-for-Small-Kitchen-Design-13.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">A corner pullout unit stores large cookware and avoids wasting space in a corner cabinet. The pullout unit brings the cabinet contents into clear view, eliminating the likelihood of losing items in the recesses of a deep cabinet. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj2uo6TkRq6GT2XC0MtUrVWmWKdZs-VZlxaeeJ5q3eab2nESlzkbeSTC44nnAg9JkG696Zi3MtHzb6vgDcAmJdzx8cdX_fEEvMWdiMcZWzKmXS9-mu-3eQjfB9gTLvygiLs0a_KoWstSalW/s1600/2014-Smart-Storage-Solutions-for-Small-Kitchen-Design-14.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Appliances were also chosen with capacity in mind. Paired refrigerators with stacked freezer drawers blend in with the cabinetry and give the couple plenty of space to stock up on food for a house full of guests. A pullout cabinet beside the refrigerators makes use of an awkward space. The slender dimensions of the unit make it ideal for storing small containers and bottles. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEggMMbvzwAYm0XCZdSGWOPoD1Q-KrOEqRho33MhYzjgM-bneLEcbvvumETj9deJ3f04v9aaMDWTYWDeb4y1vnY1pfqsI6Ed7VAUYdOAkVU19agaAU28OY9qluQYvYnewGr0Tw-wFsffczQe/s1600/2014-Smart-Storage-Solutions-for-Small-Kitchen-Design-15.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">The couple also opted for a trash compactor and two sink areas: one for preparing food and one for rallying dirty dishes. Two sets of dishwasher drawers between the sinks ease cleanup. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgaiurewwAvykw_OtRw92M98MsQBmy_EudlwbLIEk88VR4lf0990pfqElpQJodzV8y9tNzTvdGNyOtYr1q0rqD0SQ-SFhZk4L8eYbXMaqn-fa0TX2WV6c40PqjhH98cOeBiBbSeoftttp6S/s1600/2014-Smart-Storage-Solutions-for-Small-Kitchen-Design-16.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">The rail above the pantry continues around the rest of the kitchen. Transom cabinets take the place of soffits and are within reach, thanks to the library ladder. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgF4aqkP7a3k3FGIHQXhyw_jZhVefNQM3nqZ4Oze6MT_q_eH1z_w9EmOJvfTCmYDJb2jPHLa7OmWsgcJ63kFEeLB-Kv7XrI-8xcFyRwy_VOAZcspudeKBkPijPTgfTC3s0OWHbpfQx7iLgK/s1600/2014-Smart-Storage-Solutions-for-Small-Kitchen-Design-17.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">While they were going for a contemporary feel, the homeowners also wanted the kitchen to be a warm, comfortable place, so they opted for wood-look cabinetry. Zebrawood (named for its dark stripes on a light background) was their first choice, but it was also a budget buster, so they went with custom cabinetry finished with a faux-zebrawood laminate. To keep the look of the cabinetry simple, the couple used few door pulls, opting instead for push mechanisms, which make it easy to open the sleek cabinets and access their contents. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div></div>

Simple Kitchen Flooring Ideas

<div style="text-align: justify;">Your choice of kitchen floor will depend upon the style and look you wish to achieve in the room. There are certain flooring options that are more popular than others, but that doesn't mean that you have to fall in line. Here are a few different kitchen flooring ideas to consider.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><b>Wood Flooring for the Kitchen</b></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Wood floors are very common in kitchens. In fact, wood floors are definitely one of the most popular types of flooring options available. There are several different types of wood that you can choose for your floor.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Whether you stick with a basic pine slat or get a little trendier and environmentally conscience and choose a bamboo wood floor the warmth of wood adds character to the space. The color and type of the wood you choose will depend on your kitchen's style and theme.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><b>Tile Flooring; Timeless and Tasteful</b></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Another very popular type of flooring for the kitchen is tile. There are so many different options from different colors and designs to a variety of materials for your tile floor. Pick from plain tile floors, ones that are laid out in a design and others that resemble stone or are decorative.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Both ceramic and porcelain tile require little maintenance and are resistant to stains and scratches. You do need to exercise some caution not to drop anything upon your tiles, though, since they are prone to cracking.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><b>Laminate Flooring in the Kitchen</b></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">A less expensive choice for the kitchen floor is laminate. You may be surprised at just how many options you have to choose from when it comes to the new laminate flooring. Laminate floors that look like wood floors and can easily pass for a real genuine wood floor are very popular.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">There are laminate floors that look like tile as well as plain laminate floors that are very simple but can fit in perfect to play down a visually striking kitchen. Many people choose laminate floors because they can be installed easily and cost much less than a tile or real wood floor.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><b>Concrete Floor in the Kitchen</b></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Not many people may think of a concrete floor for the kitchen but they are becoming increasingly popular. A concrete floor designed for the kitchen is different than a regular concrete floor. These are decorative and stained concrete floors that can have patterns and color incorporated into their matrix. Concrete floors are very durable and are also very reasonable when compared to real wood floors.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><b>Vinyl for a Kitchen Floor</b></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Another inexpensive flooring option is vinyl tile or sheet. Some people think of old kitchens when it comes to vinyl but vinyl has come a long way from the old linoleum floors of the past. Patterns, colors and designs have taken over the market, bringing style and beauty to any kitchen.</div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://interior8.blogspot.com/"><img alt="Simple Kitchen Flooring Ideas" border="0" height="298" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjTmkYw7tsmbVLpLJmGAYh8urcJU3YcROMHk-crxz7tifmYWrR97sRFztolM7iKMrx-0YstFqPexdq4U01XgEpp3BBa-sWz4pM4fmeVDFVxAE19bHw3tpt2bhBbSIHJ7S5atxn__vdrlwt6/s1600/simple+kitchen+flooring+ideas+1.jpg" title="Simple Kitchen Flooring Ideas" width="400" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

Freestanding armoires are perfect for customizable storage space to take the place of a closet.

Use spare slots for belts, scarves, and clutches.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Drawers give the closet a polished, built-in look, plus handy closet door storage for folded clothes. Bulky items like sweaters and purses can go on the open shelves.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Eke out another sliver of storage by putting a shallow basket on the shelf below the top row of hanging clothes. Use it for things that fold up small, such as tights, T’s, or socks.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhoaldU1nlle6EMvIiSBohXpQG8YQ4MWUMJFDNy6JbBt_RDRo_aTDh2-dXczRQgalIAK25k23lN1_qVDRDBZy6WtezPDh2yRYPEwmxV1q3jpCtoAkzfgwPnEgQ1TlLVenEChBiVMvgZH-A/s1600/Storage-Solutions-for-Closets-2014-Ideas-7.jpg" width="480" /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Whether your closet is big or small, good lighting will make it even more functional. Look for ceiling-mount lighting that doesn’t need to be hardwired as a quick update for a reach-in closet. Lamps can be used in a walk in closet for extra illumination, which is beneficial for dressing areas. If your walk-in closet has a window, install a light-blocking window covering. That way, you can keep out the natural light when you’re not using the closet. Constant sunlight might cause some clothing to fade. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEioMDOxD0k4HbssmIPuc_DPaPKw-Pw58iYpD5EfUGaVgMLskNmSTk_RmKmDE0CPAu3fHyX6QCQtwvG7Xx3V-dTf05ad9pj9mUcHRAEkTq6RkTFgJ6DGWQ42feENzF1zJNLFAUEt9GHIPQU/s1600/Storage-Solutions-for-Closets-2014-Ideas-8.jpg" width="480" /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">For a narrow and short space, stair-step rods for kids’ clothing storage. Since their clothing is short and slender, you can hang one rod higher and further back in the closet and another bar lower and more toward the front to get a double layer of storage. Consider tension shower rods, which can be installed without making holes in the wall and are easier to change as the child gets older. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi6qV5zpn0y6DqOhnHW9_9F66l928Wn6P4Dhfvo-ysgUUz6XCKNaD8w-dCUwUKnmNNXAF3EnXVW8V4NllxW0oIa0i4s4D0U_OKaOjL72LwOMZzV5J2-RAhQNaL2iMXZYUItJeHAkOpGj64/s1600/Storage-Solutions-for-Closets-2014-Ideas-9.jpg" width="480" /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Using double closet rods one over the other is the best way to squeeze more storage space out of a closet. Be sure to measure the length of each item you'll be hanging there and allow another 6 inches of clearance above and below each rod. Blouses, shirts, skirts, jackets, and kids' clothes will all fit on double rods. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEik5yiX_qpuCUX4ecEl0Em7bojPFvF6wEv9axO5Zr2HRH9iGkggkUguDs1TdkzzJ09h0bzGhyphenhyphen0r1i_Q_oRguAPt68aWWxKPzMN4aUS_JfGrq3jskwrvUWo0v2eazYcX5phHa5V__zASI_I/s1600/Storage-Solutions-for-Closets-2014-Ideas-10.jpg" width="480" /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Cut down on your ironing time with an ironing board that’s always ready to go. Hang a wall mount ironing board near an outlet and store the iron nearby. Simply fold down the board when you’re ready to iron. There are also ironing board cabinets that can be recessed into a wall. Learn how to install one with the video below. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjpjRJpQH4IVade1MwZlng-Z8U-YXIXf4hU0s8ULZfkixFJS8pEX0SUNW5Ot_tXdx7eOh4op_plVNCUizRJuqoFNqIMgy5nYyREohiwJzhxbxrv87SCl1JCyr_Wy__w2LyN8rUk5k9E1hM/s1600/Storage-Solutions-for-Closets-2014-Ideas-11.jpg" width="480" /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">See through wire drawers make finding clothes or other items in your closet quick and easy. This metal pull-out storage system has drawers with various depths to fit into different sized spaces, and provides a more organized form of storage than simple cubbies would provide. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEggPCCVDunTiaXgFbubSpEON8_oGWyRSNcciYV_b7MYqqtULYv2LQ0sqxK58vQgng01nXalif5ImbrbRGDP_L24uvDFJEFMeTCbwKmpcGawjYa2wvbHJB94BD0tsWFkdu-XlsqXQKu86QI/s1600/Storage-Solutions-for-Closets-2014-Ideas-12.jpg" width="480" /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Label bins and boxes with luggage tags. Loop the tag around handles and insert a label into the tag’s pocket. Putting labels on boxes and bins that are stored up high is especially helpful. That way, you won’t have to guess what’s in the box, and you can pull down the right one on your first try. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div></div>
