Re: Displaying Pots and Pans

I had a hanging rack in my log home . Sold that home, so now I keep pots in slide out cabinet drawers. Love those slide outs...going to get DH to install a couple more (:

Im OCD about my kitchen looking too cluttered and pots on display would put it over the top.

Re: Displaying Pots and Pans

@lolakimono  Years ago we/I decided after we had the kitchen painted I wanted a baker's rack.  So we bought & put together a SS one and hung the pots, pans, and lids.  It was a nice one, half was down was a board resembling a rectangular cutting board, below was a wine rack that held 6 bottles.  Everything on it looked good, stood right next to the range, certainly served it's purpose.  Used it for about 8-10 years.

 

Well in March this year, we painted the kitchen again, really changed it up this time, same color scheme but much different.   We gave away the baker's rack, I bought a new server/buffet at Wayfair to store the pots, pans, and lids in.  It's wood painted white, two top drawers (one for lids, the other pot holders).  Below are two really nice sized cupboards each w/a door and one adjustable shelf inside for pots & pans that fit perfectly.  I purged some, bought a new set.  There's a center divider that WHAT?? holds wine bottles!  So the transfer was seamless.  I LOVE the new servier!

 

The 2nd photo from the top here kitchen walls a charcoal grey below, soft grey above is what we painted our kitchen!  I also want new WHITE appliances - they look GREAT against the charcoal walls.  BTW, this charcoal is for us a medium charcoal, not so dark.  New drapes are up, love them from Wayfair too.  Accent colors are red, floor is earth friendly marmoleum softer under the feet, 12x12 sqs in light grey, dark grey, red, laid in a random pattern.

 

Ok, we live in Ohio, capital city home of who?  THE Ohio State Buckeyes, hence the scarlet & grey kitchen.  DH's G'parents' home from the 1920s.

Re: Displaying Pots and Pans

Let me just say one word as to why I'm glad I'm now back to storing in my new server/buffet:

 

 

DUST 

 

Enough said!  It's a great look, all of these in fact but we all have items that we don't use very much and when they're out they collect DUST!!!

Re: Displaying Pots and Pans

Absolutely NOT.   Just NOT my decorating style and just more stuff to dust!  All my pots and pans and gadgets are hidden in drawers and cabinets.

 

My kitchen is a tiny galley kitchen, and I'm not all that much a fan of cooking..  Actually, it's not the cooking itself, but rathere the mess to clean up afterwards.

Re: Displaying Pots and Pans

Shortly after we moved here, DH gave me a hanging rack for Christmas. He picked it out himself. So my pots hang on a rack similar to the first one, only mine is a hammered steel, above an island. I hang my All-Clad pots and pans and my LeCreuset enamel stock pot there, along with some utensils. I love it! I don't care if it goes out of fashion. I love to cook, and I wouldn't want my pans to be anywhere else!  My LeCreuset cast iron cookware goes in the bottom cabinet. Smiley Happy

Re: Displaying Pots and Pans

Martha Stewart likes to display her pans.  I would too if I had all the beautifil copper ware that she has.

Re: Displaying Pots and Pans

The very first home we owned was built in the early 1900s and had a large l-shape kitchen.  We were so proud of our new Magnalite professional cookware and I found the perfect pot rack at Crate and Barrel from which to display it.  

 

Fast forward to our new home today and while I would no longer want pots and pans out in the open, it simply wouldn't work.  My home is very open concept and we keep a very streamlined kitchen void of almost everything.
