Many people do not like to throw away potentially useful things, and sometimes in the apartments a huge amount of trash accumulates in reserve and just in case. Non-exclusion, though rather cumbersome - empty glass jars.
Where to store them and how to do it better is a very pressing issue. Together with blanks not yet eaten, they take up a lot of space, spoil the interior and often suffer themselves, covered with cracks and chips.
Sign
It is widely believed that keeping empty banks is to poverty. After all, the container takes the place that the filled dishes could take.
General layout
Empty cans in the country, in a private house, and even more so in a cottage, do not constitute a particular problem - they can be safely removed to any non-residential premises. Many generally store them on the street, since glass containers endure this.
The situation with the apartment is more specific, especially if it is small. Here you already have to make up your mind and look for non-standard solutions.
The most obvious options for an apartment are a loggia, a mezzanine or a pantry, if any.
General rule
Banks that are not needed until the next season, it makes sense to clean away or higher. It is better to keep the same dishes and blanks that will be needed in the near future, away from the passage, but so that it is easy to approach.
Methods for storing cans and blanks
The most standard option is shelving. Both wooden and cheaper plastic. And best of all - collapsible metal, which can be adjusted and fixed on the wall. The only condition: they must withstand both empty dishes and with blanks.
Where to place the rack? If the pantry allows - in it. If this is not the case, Miss Purity magazine recommends placing racks in the dead corners and along the walls so that they do not interfere and it is easy to approach them.
A less convenient location is the mezzanine. They are also suitable for empty glass containers, and fortified ones - for full ones. But they are quite inaccessible place.
The best place is the free spaces and the so-called "dead zones" throughout the apartment. This can be an empty space in the kitchen, a niche / drawer under the bed or between the cabinets. Away from the passage, so as not to accidentally hurt. If there are concerns for an aesthetic moment, then the site mschistota.ru advises to build small drawers or shelves that are suitable in each individual case.
For temporary maintenance, the “on top of each other” option is suitable. It is very simple and economical - again, you need a dull corner and a cling film:
- Sort the container by size.
- Tape six to each other with a film, if we are talking about three-liter cans, wrapping one can, and then, without cutting the film, the next one and so on.
- Then make a stable low structure next to the wall.
- For fidelity, you can wrap the entire "pyramid" with a film.
In general, storage of empty glass jars is definitely not a troublesome task, especially if the hostess clearly understands how many such containers she needs and gets rid of the excess in time.
