There's Finally A Good Way To Organize Your Standing Mixer Attachments

Stand mixers eliminate the hard parts of whipping up your favorite baked goods. However, they introduce new problems when it comes to keeping your kitchen perfectly organized. More specifically, bulky stand mixer attachments like a wire whip, dough hook, and flat beater often clutter up cabinets because they typically do not have a designated storage spot. Fortunately, there's a simple solution: you can use the Stand Mixer Attachment Holders, sold on Amazon for $7, to neatly hang them inside of your kitchen.

To use this self-adhesive storage solution, simply peel the protective cover off of the back and stick the square-shaped plastic component onto the kitchen surface you want to hang your mixer attachments from. You may also screw the component in place if you prefer. Next, slide your attachment onto the plastic and turn it to lock it in place. Repeat this process with as many Stand Mixer Attachment Holders as you need to hang all of your attachments. And that's all there is to it! Feel free to place the holders wherever makes the most sense for your space. If you would like to hide your attachments out of sight, for example, you could install the holders inside of a cabinet to hang them there.

The Stand Mixer Attachment Holders are compatible with KitchenAid standing mixers. If you have a different mixer, you can search for attachment holders that are compatible with your specific appliance on Amazon. Once you purchase the correct holders, review the instruction manual that comes with the product to determine exactly how to install them properly. Installation instructions will vary slightly from product to product.

There is a chance that there are no stand mixer attachment holders out there that are compatible with the appliance you own. In this case, you can use self-adhesive hooks to hang them in your kitchen instead. The Good Days' Lyfehacks Adhesive Hooks, $5 for a pack of 10, are a great option that would allow you to hang the attachments from inside of a cabinet. You could even stick these hooks underneath the outside of a cabinet if you prefer. Either placement can help you say goodbye to cluttered kitchen countertops.

Since the mixer itself is probably one of those appliances you just can't live without, it's also important to place a protective cover over it when it is not in use to prevent scratches and other damage. The Nalan Stand Mixer Cover for $17 is a great pick that is compatible with KitchenAid stand mixers. This cover comes in a variety of colors. Alternatively, the Evermarket Stand Mixer for $10 fits over not only KitchenAid mixers, but also Sunbeam, Cuisinart, and Hamilton mixers. It is available in black, blue, or red color options.
