When we began unpacking boxes for our new, walk-in pantry, everything just got shoved everywhere, and it was never fixed.
“Where should we put this?”
“Eh, right here’s fine.”
And it stayed there, of course, making it near-impossible to put groceries away when it came time to. And the floor started seeing a lot of things that couldn’t fit on the shelves. Finally, yesterday, in trying to squeeze into the space for the eleventy-kajillionth time, I wondered to myself, “WHY DON’T I JUST FIX THIS?”
Duh.
And so I did. Hello, plastic bins from Walmart. How much I love thee. This is my before and after:
|
| Ch-ch-changes… |
Much easier to find things with plastic organizer bins. See?
|
| These are under-the-sink organizers from Walmart that stack. Using them here organizes my spice packets, sugars, and various bags of baking supplies up top (nuts, gelatin and flax seed). |
|
| This is an onion/potato container from Tupperware. (I love Tupperware) |
|
| This plastic bin from Walmart holds all our foil, plastic, and baggies (plus napkins). |
|
| Cereals have their own space to stand up nicely. |
|
| Bread in its own bin, easy to pull out when needed. |
This redo has made it that much easier to find things, and keep them organized.
What about you? Do you have a pantry or do you use cabinets for your food storage? How do you keep yours organized?
