Proper Cabinet Painting Preparation
Stay Organized
Chances are, your kitchen cabinets hold more items than you realize. To make the process of moving everything back smoother, ensure you’re organized as you relocate items and designate a specific storage spot, whether it’s your dining area or basement, to keep everything from your kitchen.
While some may intend to continue using their regular dishes, it’s far simpler to utilize paper plates and plastic utensils during this time. This small adjustment can save you a considerable amount of hassle.
Safely Pack Fragile Items
Even though you’re not undergoing a full move, your dishes are. It’s crucial to have the right supplies on hand to safeguard delicate ceramics, glassware, and other fragile items as they’re moved out of the kitchen. Take the time to wrap delicate items and pack them with care.
Rather than removing and replacing all your silverware, consider lifting the silverware drawer organizer out of the drawer altogether. You can wrap it with plastic wrap to keep everything in place until it’s time to return it. With everything already moved, now may be the perfect time to add cabinet storage solutions to improve your kitchen organization for the future.
Use Kitchen Items as Storage Solutions
Kitchens often house items that can serve as storage for other items when packing. For example, fill your slow cooker with utensils, or utilize a large bowl to hold spice jars. This will optimize space in your temporary storage and facilitate the moving process.
Countertops typically accommodate larger items you use regularly, like your coffee maker or air fryer. Develop a plan for these items so you can still use them while the rest of the kitchen is undergoing renovations.
Remove Rugs and Mats
Even if you’re not revamping your floors, it’s crucial to clear them off. Remove rugs and mats from the kitchen area and ensure there’s a clear path from the door to the renovation zone for the crew.
Create a Temporary Meal Prep Area
Unless you plan to dine out for every meal, arrange a temporary space for food preparation. Opt for simple meals that only require one appliance, like a grill (if weather permits) or a slow cooker for hassle-free and less messy meal prep. Additionally, set up an area for washing essential dishes, such as the bathroom sink.
