Upgrade Your Fridge Shelves With Inexpensive Plexiglas

Wire refrigerator shelves can lead to food topples and spills, along with being tricky to clean in their own right. Rather than upgrade your fridge, consider using just a measuring tape and a trip to your hardware store for a fix.

In its review of The Itty Bitty Kitchen Handbook, gadget blog Cool Tools pulls out an intriguing excerpt on food storage. With limited space (and likely a tight budget), you don’t want to lose food to spills, knock-overs and cross-contamination. Measure your shelves, give yourself just a smidge of fitting space, and call around to see which hardware store can cut Plexiglas to order. Place the glass over your shelves, and now it’s easier to clean up spills and stash awkwardly shaped items, while still maintaining a clear view of everything in your fridge.
