How to add Home Screens in Nexus 5 or Google Home Launcher(Kitkat 4.4)

Homescreens in Kitkat aren't that easy to add as in older Android OS' or System UI's.
It has a very Logical way of adding homescreens.

We can add lots of homescreens in KitKat (32 and counting....... ;)  ) which wasn't possible in other Stock UI's where we were restricted to only 7-9 homescreens whereas on the other hand we cannot have a empty homescreen just to admire the wallpaper or have a clean homescreen as we need to add minimum 1 app / widget / shortcut to a homescreen to exist.

KitKat allows more homescreens but doesnt allow empty homescreen which is shocking.

Having app folders in app drawer is also not allowed but when KitKat gives so many homescreens why worry about it?

After having all apps and widgets only on homescreen it would be much similar to iOS where all apps are on homescreen and 1st homescreen is search(Here Google Now).
