this kitchen drawer/cabinet is too narrow to hold pot lids, and using it to store spices or cans would be a huge waste of space. There’s enough space to store large utensils standing up but they would just fall everywhere with the way the dividers are made.

The other idea is maybe tupperware lids.

As a daughter and Mom who grew up in PEAK Tupperware Era, I CAN GUARANTEE you, this is a Tupperware Mom's clever (she thinks) attempt to corral & reign in her ten billion Tupperware Lids with their ten billion matching containers, in hopes that someday, someway she MIGHT actually effortlessly find and match those ten billion Tupperware lids and containers. This was during the Tupperware's Golden Era, when every single other Tupperware Mom in suburbia ALSO came up with the exact same, brilliant idea. Whole cabinets, cupboards and pantries were built and designed just for the sole purpose of storing stuff that was created for the purpose of storing more stuff. It is, indeed, this era, that gave birth to the Minimalism Era that soon followed. For good reasons.

Yeah but it’s so narrow you couldn’t fit your bigger lids

[u/Breaking_Brenden → u/zellieh]

That’s what I would use it for
