Tiny kitchen.

Remember that I said I had a closet-kitchen? Well, I took this picture before we moved in:

Of course, its now completely full of pots, pans, dishes, food, and of course, my extensive collection of decorative chickens. I'll have to post a picture of what it looks like NOW, but here's my point... any ideas for making this space as functional as possible? We have a magnetic knife rack behind the stove, and a dish drainer installed behind the sink (it hangs over the sink without taking up precious counter space), but there's also a toaster (which I could probably put away, we don't use it that often), a coffee maker, a jar full of kitchen tools... anything and everything that you can imagine.

Any color recommendations? The attached living/dining area is probably going to be variations of green with pops of red. I'm open to all ideas!
