Pain Point: Wasting time moving multiple glasses to reach the one you need

Solution: Logical organization by type and frequency keeps everyday glasses accessible

1. Categorize by Type & Use

• Everyday glasses: Water glasses, juice glasses at eye level
• Special occasion: Wine glasses, champagne flutes higher up
• Mugs & cups: Coffee mugs, tea cups in separate section
• Kids' drinkware: Plastic cups, sippy cups in lower cabinets
• Specialty: Shot glasses, cordial glasses in dedicated area

2. Maximize Vertical Space

• Install under-shelf hanging racks for stemware
• Use stackable shelf risers to double storage capacity
• Add cabinet door organizers for small glasses
• Store tall glasses on lower shelves, short ones higher
• Leave adequate clearance above glasses for easy removal

3. Safe Stacking Methods

• Stack identical glasses no more than 3 high
• Never nest different sized glasses together
• Place paper towels or felt pads between stacked glasses
• Store stemware hanging or upright, never stacked on rims
• Keep heaviest glasses on bottom, lighter on top

4. Display Options

• Open shelving for pretty glassware collections
• Glass-front cabinets protect while showing contents
• Floating shelves for decorative and functional storage
• Bar cart for entertaining glassware
• Plate racks adapted for wine glasses
