Smaller kitchen spaces can definitely be challenging when it comes to the amount of kitchen stuff we need and the space we have to store it. One storage-saving hack is placing a drying rack over the sink itself once all of the washing-up is done. Instead of cluttering up even more precious countertop space, the rack simply sits over the empty sink - letting your glasses and plates dry off.
Other space-saving solutions for washing and drying up without a dishwasher include expandable, collapsible, and rollable drying racks as well as over-the-sink racks, with some even two or three stories high for extra storage.
