You probably use aluminum foil<\/a>, parchment paper,<\/a> wax paper,<\/a> and maybe even plastic wrap <\/a>fairly regularly. Their boxes aren\u2019t big, no \u2014 but that\u2019s kind of the problem. They\u2019re skinny and tend to get beat up over time, which can make them hard to stack or organize neatly. Well, that\u2019s where this post comes in. There are plenty of smart storage solutions<\/a> to buy (yes, they even make kitchen wrap organizers<\/a>!) or DIY projects to make your kitchen more functional and your life a lot easier. And we\u2019ve rounded up some of our favorites. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n Below are some clever storage ideas to get you inspired \u2014 and the best part is, some of them only cost a few dollars and two minutes of your time. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n There\u2019s nothing worse than an excess of visual clutter in your kitchen\u00a0\u2014\u00a0especially when it\u2019s accompanied by actual<\/em> clutter. These handy acrylic storage containers<\/a> solve both issues. Each holds multiple boxes of wrap and attaches securely to whatever surface you deem suitable \u2014 a wall, a pantry door, or the inside of the cabinet. Even better, the slim depth and high edges<\/a> of each container keep the wrap boxes from getting damaged or falling out every time you open the door. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n What\u2019s better than one stylish way to store your food wraps? Two! This dual-sided storage container<\/a> offers up space for two rolls of plastic wrap, parchment paper, or tinfoil, with serrated teeth on each side to make tearing the perfect piece a cinch. Better yet, it\u2019s made of durable bamboo<\/a>, so it\u2019ll look good (and function) for years to come. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n Finding a useful organizational method in your kitchen is often about taking advantage of unused space. One of the biggest spots of opportunity? Your fridge! If the side of your appliance is free and accessible, a magnetic wrap holder<\/a> \u2014\u00a0like this one from Yamazaki<\/a> \u2014 is a great way to make the most of every square inch. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n If you have a section of wall in a pantry that\u2019s not being used (or just the back of a cabinet door), consider mounting your boxes there. All you need is some Command hooks<\/a> and a wooden dowel cut down to size. (Here\u2019s how<\/a> to make it happen.) Then, you can pull off what you need with just one hand.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n This modern dispenser<\/a> \u2014 which boasts a built-in cutter to easily roll out only what you need \u2014 from Amazon is a great storage solution, and it has space for a roll of paper towels, too. The dispenser on top can even be pulled off and brought to wherever you\u2019re working.<\/p>\n Buy: Leifheit 4-in-1 Wall-Mount Paper Towel Holder<\/a>, $34.19 (originally $36)<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n If you need a way to store rolls of plastic wrap inside your cabinets without taking up too much valuable space, try a rack that lets you stack them, like this one<\/a>, which has space for up to six rolls. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n An easy way to upgrade your aluminum foil and plastic wrap rolls? Take them out of their original packaging and put them inside a more stylish dispenser. This lemon dispenser<\/a> comes with 250 feet of plastic wrap to start, but then you can slip in your favorite roll when it\u2019s time for a refill. Again and again.<\/p>\n1. When in doubt, opt for transparency.<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
