The sink is one of the most-used spots in the kitchen. A few small changes make it cleaner and more functional.
Move the soap bottle
A wall-mounted soap dispenser removes the bottle from the counter. This frees the edge of the sink and prevents soap bottle rings.
Hang the sponge
A suction-cup sponge holder on the wall keeps the sponge off the wet sink. It dries faster and does not grow mold.
Use a sink grid
A silicone grid protects the sink bottom and raises dishes above standing water. It also makes washing vegetables easier.
Store cleaners under the sink
Use a tension rod under the sink to hang spray bottles. Stack small trays for sponges and scrub brushes. This uses the dead space under the pipes.
