I also have a small kitchen and what I had my husband do is to put up pegboard on the wall. I hung all my pans and extra items like the measuring spoons, etc. I also color coordinated them and used an accent color, red, with the utensils I put up there. I painted the board white like all my walls and it made it look so much bigger.

Installing a piece of pegboard in your shop is a good way to help organize your tools. This is a page about using a peg board to organize a workshop.
After moving into a rented house with a narrow kitchen, I needed a place to store my many gadgets, strainers, etc. that wouldn't fit in the cabinets.
When organizing my craft room, I took pegboard, I made mine longer and skinny. I bought nails (took a spool with me to hardware store) poked the nails in from behind and organized my thread.
I have a small bathroom with not much room for storage. So I had my husband put a couple of strips of wood on the wall with pegboard over it.
