Kitchen Space: Bags

Do you have plastic and paper shopping bags cluttering up valuable drawer space in your kitchen? Today, if more space is your mission, welcome to mission control. Nothing wastes more kitchen drawer space than bags -- plastic shopping bags of all sizes, produce bags and paper bags. Day by day, their numbers grow. How can you get these space-eaters under control? Easy, just divide and conquer. To make a handy dispenser for plastic shopping bags, cut the top and bottom off a 2-liter soda bottle, mount it upside-down on the wall, stuff plastic bags in the top and pull them out through the narrower neck at the bottom. For smaller plastic bags and produce bags, just stuff them into empty paper towel tubes. For brown paper bags, group them by size, clamp them in wooden clamp-type pants hangers and hang them in a pantry or closet. If more kitchen drawer space is your mission, ending bag clutter is mission control. And that's the On The House tip for today.
