Smart kitchen storage solutions can instantly transform even the smallest of spaces from overwhelmed to chic. We're big fans of open shelving units and generally taking advantage of wall space to avoid counter clutter – perhaps in preparation for all those festive baking projects ahead!
Naturally, we are always on the hunt for unique storage solutions, and Jennifer Lopez's copper pan kitchen storage method is our latest source of inspiration.

These kitchen racks may double as kitchen wall decor, but they're also highly practical – keeping cooking supplies and other kitchen utensils where we can easily reach them.
This pan makes a bold statement in any kitchen while remaining lightweight, nonstick, scratch-resistant, and dishwasher safe. Its clever Ti-Cerama coating guarantees effortless food release, no oil or butter needed.
Layering wooden chopping boards in varied sizes, shapes, and textures adds an instant country charm to any kitchen. Practical yet decorative, these boards come in round or rectangular designs.
'Walls are the best source for organizing in a kitchen, regardless of size,' says Barbara Brock, founder & CEO of professional organizing and staging company Barbara Brock Inc.
'Hanging kitchen pans, for example, looks professional and emphasizes that someone is a cook. Pans are easily obtainable and distinguishable from one another when hanging from a wall rack or ceiling. Attach hooks to the ceiling to hang things like pots and baskets, for example.'
She continues, 'Wall racks are not only great for pots and pans, but also utensils or hot pads. The more storage solutions that are provided, the cleaner the kitchen will be. If cabinetry is an issue, a great solution for storing pots is a pot rack attached to either the wall or ceiling.'
The variation of pan sizes also creates some visual interest – we love how JLo has arranged her pots and pans by mixing and matching rather than organizing by size. JLo's hanging pans are also a reminder that kitchen essentials can be more than just functional items; depending on appearance, they can be decorative objects.
Opt for copper pans like hers for a classic look, or try out some colorful alternatives (we are partial to a true blue or a bright red, like these from Amazon) for a dose of dopamine decor – perfect for brightening up those shorter, darker days as we head into the cooler months.
