ideas: Design a Kitchen Pantry You Can Actually Keep Organized

Best pantry organizers

Notes:

• Getting the right organizers for every item is the perfect place to start from. There are a variety of storage options. There are plastic containers, glass jars, and others. Choose what suits you, consider things like home needs, pantry space and food requirements.
• If you have canned vegetables, for instance, it is good to keep them in the cans that you bought them with. There are others that you may need to transfer to other containers. Cereals may go bad if you don’t keep their boxes closed always. But they can stay longer if you keep them in plastic containers which are closed tightly.
• You should also consider moving items that come in oddly shaped containers to sturdy ones to save some space and make the pantry appear tidier. It is important to also label and date all items which you remove from their original containers.

The best shelving and storage

Notes:

• The space you have is what will determine the storage and shelving you will pick. Kitchen designers recommend that if your space is narrow, open shelving will be the best. A roomier space can get by with doors.
• The other alternative is user-friendly pull-out pantry drawers which make the normal cupboard look like a neatly-organized drawer. With this, you will be able to see items without having to move around.
• Baskets can also be great for organizing the pantry and they are more affordable. There is also wire shelving which is cheap and allows adding height to the pantry. And even if you attach the wire shelf inside the door, you will have some additional storage room.

Storing other items besides food

Notes:

• If your pantry is big, you can keep other items like appliances. This includes things like your best cookware set, the cooker, a stand mixer and other big appliances which you rarely use. You can even store large or oddly shaped baking dishes on the higher shelves of the pantry.

Avoid heavy things which are not necessary

Notes:

• If your family is big, it is always good to buy items in bulk. But avoid buying many boxes of foods just because they are on sale. That food can rot before you even plan to eat it. Heavy containers are likely to lead to more waste of food. Also, having many cans, boxes and jars will consume valuable pantry space.
• So, when buying in bulk, ensure to first prepare a storage area. You must also have your labels ready for all the items you will repackage.
