I have a "few" utensil holders for the ones that are not hanging. Mine are mostly of "collected" gadgets and odd things. I have an isolated corner counter area that is pretty much useless for anything except holding my "spooner" which prompted me to use similar containers for forks and large spoons and get them out of the "flatware" drawer which never worked correctly and which, having an iffy "stopper" from time to time exited the frame, dumping everything on the floor.
Some of my containers, metal mesh, came from Staples in the office supply section and because they are a bit lightweight, the bottom contains aquarium rocks or marbles to keep them from tipping with longer, top-heavy gadgets.
And the hanging gadgets. Looks confusing but I know where everything is. Also my earthquake warning system.
P.S. I also have ZERO "junk drawers" in fact I got rid of all but two small drawers in my kitchen that hold only small items such as corks, bottle caps, pour spouts, my tea caddy spoons, and other small gadgets, many in little plastic bags to keep them clean.
The stuff in the "cans" go into the dishwasher periodically. The metal mesh ones can go into the dishwasher with their contents and then are set on a large cooling rack over a full-size sheet pan to dry. This is fairly rapid here in the desert, today the humidity is 9%. I got rid of the drawers after opening one that held some gadgets and finding a mouse staring back at me.
The little pinkish desert mice invade when it is very hot, very cold or no rain for months. I do not want to share space with them. I washed everything in the drawer and set out traps, then decided to hell with it, broke up the drawer, tossed it into the trash and emptied all the others, cleaned everything that was in them and discarded them also.
All food stuff goes into Cambro containers or is stored in the freezer. I have a lot of the large Cambro containers just for this reason.
