If your pantry feels overloaded, try these ideas to make it feel a little more roomy:

  1. Remove the items that are expired.
  2. Remove the items that your family will never eat.
  3. Hang a pantry door-rack, if possible.
  4. Relocate things like cookbooks, recipes and magazines.
  5. Relocate other things that don’t absolutely need to be in the pantry.
  6. Remove bulk items like flour, sugar, etc.
  7. Remove pet foods and treats.
  8. Only keep FOOD in your pantry- no lunch bags, napkins, paper towels, etc.
  9. Adjust or add extra shelves, if possible.
  10. Add roll-out drawers, if possible.

 

[ TIP ] Save on Space

April 20, 2015 by in Garage, General Organizing, Tips

[ TIP ]: The price of anything is the amount of space you exchange for it.

XOXO says: If you have limited storage space, go ahead and spend the extra $1.50 on a 4-pack of paper towels each month rather than buying a 6-month supply in bulk. Remember, each square inch of your home is valuable real estate so use it wisely. Who says you need to fill every shelf or closet to the brim? Give yourself some room to breath so you have room to grow into your space. It will be worth it in the end. I promise.
