When you hear the term baker’s racks, it’s pretty fair to assume they’re only for use in the kitchen - after all, ‘baker’ is right there in the name and where else does a baker work? You might be surprised, then, to learn about some of the other clever ideas we’ve come across for using baker’s racks in all sorts of ways all over the house! Why not check out a few and see if you get inspired: Dishes and Appliances While this one still goes in the kitchen, it’s not for the usual litany of ingredients and pans that you might expect it to be. Baker’s racks offer the perfect blend of storage and counter space to store some of your larger serving dishes, plates for the guests, or even your microwave - imagine how much room on your standard counter you could free up without having a microwave taking up space! Household Gardening Sure, plenty of people suggest keeping your spices and herbs on your baker’s rack, but they probably didn’t mean this! More people are turning to baker’s racks to help cultivate their green thumb thanks to the space and height they provide, allowing you to keep potted plants of many types safely in the sunlight where they belong. Whether safely inside in the sunroom or outdoors on the porch, baker’s racks will keep your plants safe and healthy! Laundry Room Storage Sure, most laundry rooms are pretty small to begin with, but if you’re looking for a convenient (and smaller!) shelving option for your laundry room, a baker’s rack might be just what you need. Use the shelves to store your laundry soaps and detergents, and use the space underneath to keep hampers or baskets for everything you haven’t washed yet! Impromptu Office Space Anywhere you feel like you might need a desk but you just don’t have the room, a baker’s rack could provide a good work surface. Use the flat top to store a smaller laptop or tablet, and use the shelves to organize mail, keep writing supplies, and more. Sure, it might not be as spacious as your desk at work - but you’d be surprised how much you can get done on one! So long as you’ve got the room and the imagination, baker’s racks (and their close relative, rolling kitchen carts) can be applied to a number of different uses!
