Most people want the luxury of a pantry but with a small kitchen, which is not possible. Here’s an idea: why not turn one of your old cupboards into storage unit.

You can install different sizes pull out cabinets in the cupboard and organize kitchen items accordingly: the spices at the top and pots and pans, along with rice and flour at the bottom. This is one of the best ways to organize your kitchen and make the room more spacious.
