Storing pans properly in the kitchen is always a challenge. In most Dutch kitchens, the pans are in a drawer anyway. How do you put those pans and lids away logically without it turning into no-time<\/em> gets messy again? You can buy storage units, mostly made of plastic, but you can also make your own! And so David went to work with wood. He made a DIY potholder (pegboard) quite easily<\/strong> To bring your pan drawer to the side.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

DIY potholder<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

For ages, I have been looking for a good way to store our pans. Our last solution was made of plastic and broke down quickly. There must be another way. Can't I make something like this myself? Sure you can! The solution is a pegboard. You can easily make a pegboard and build it yourself, it's not a complicated job at all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pegboard, a handy way to sort pans<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

A pegboard is one of those boards with holes (and sticks) that you see in many modern and trendy interiors. There is no good Dutch word for it in my opinion, so I'll show it to you below. Pegboards come in different sizes and materials such as wood, cardboard or metal. They are usually attached to a wall so you can hang all kinds of things on the pegs (= sticks): clothes, a bicycle, tools, bookshelves or kitchen utensils. But you can also lay a pegboard horizontally with the pegs pointing upwards. And then suddenly you've made a handy pot holder. I tell you in steps how to do this very easily.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
