The kitchen is a virtual magnet for clutter. After all, it is one of the busiest rooms of the house.

It has three slim shelves that can hold extra canned goods, cleaning supplies, paper goods, spices, and much more. The unit fits perfectly in the empty space between the refrigerator and cabinetry.
