Some of my cupboard doors are useful for hanging stuff on the inside,
and some are too close to shelves. I do manage to hang my differently-
sized strainers by fitting them inbetween the shelf edges. I love the
3M Command hooks for things like this - no mess, no holes, no
permanence.

You bet your boots those 3M hooks are fine. I have some inside lower
cabinet doors to hang the quarrelsome racks used to cool cookies and
whatever. If left 'at large' the racks will hook onto everything in reach.

I use them too, mighty helpful! And I do hang things to fit between
the shelves. Tiny kitchens certainly make you put your thinking cap
on to tackle quirky storage problems.

I still haven't bought those and I could use them. Guess I don't go
down that aisle.
