It is possible for any room in the home to become unorganized but one that always seems to be a wreck is the pantry. In fact, most of us are quite happy that we have a door on our pantry so that visitors can’t see what a mess we have in there!
If you are embarrassed by your pantry and desire some organization in that small room, these tips are going to set you on the right path. With one suggestion after another, you will find that your pantry is getting more and more organized until it is just where you want it to be.
This is what the test pantry looked like before the organization began.
The first thing that she did was to get some help. She enlisted her father who came to her rescue with some rather ingenious ideas.
Her first thought was to simply pile everything from the pantry on the kitchen counters but her father stopped her, suggesting that she should use boxes so she could continue with her daily life.
They used paintable wallpaper to cover the walls of the pantry. The shelves were painted and her father got busy putting up the wallpaper.
The father designed some turntable carousels with extra edging to keep small items from falling off
A turntable was even installed on the floor!
As the boxes were emptied, everything was put into its proper place.
Tall, thin containers were purchased for storing items such as crackers, cereal and grain. This removes a lot of the unsightly boxes that were cluttering the area.
Glass canisters were also used and they were labeled so you can see what you had at a glance.
Jars with spring lids or screw tops were used for storing dried goods, such as pasta and dried beans.
There was so much room available in the newly organized pantry that she could even hang a decorative wreath above the top shelf!
