How do you store pots and pans lids? Without mess

I don't have a lot of kitchen. Cupboard space! I can pretty much fit all of my pots and pans inside each other so that's fine! But the lids always end up looking really messy in the cupboard!

Is there some sort of organizer or something I could use to stand them up?

I hate kitchen cupboard mess GrinGrin

I bought a lid organiser from Lakeland. It takes up cupboard space, but makes my life so much easier. Just need to figure out how to store pots and pans in a better way than what we currently do!

I keep mine in the mixing bowl next the the pans (I literally have one cupboard with 2 shelves for pots, pans, trays and crockery)

Kind of like this, but mine is adjustable www.lakeland.co.uk/24334/Sturdy-Lid-and-Board-Store

My pan lids sit upside down on the pans, with a smaller pan then sat on top.

I do it the same as chasing. I only have 3 pans so it doesn't take up too much space.

I nest my pans with the lids stacked in size order against them. It mostly works, unless you need the biggest pan!

You can get tiered pan shelf thing that you put in the cupboard, in yet to go one but it looks a fab idea!

I've got a lid rack.

My problem is with my oven trays. Store them in the oven until I use the oven. Take them all out but nowhere to go! What do others do?

@tobee I stack mine in size order in the cupboard.

The same as Chasing Squirrels

I stuck 3M hooks on the inside of the pan cupboard. 2 hooks per lid to keep them horizontal. Works for 2 lids each side of the cupboard and the one oversized lid just sits on top of the pans.

Thanks @MsChatterbox. I don't have space right now but I should try to rearrange! Smile

I too have 3M hooks on inside of my pan cupboard door. Only 1 hook per pan lid though is enough I find. Works really well.
