Simple pantry upgrades!
An easy guide to the most satisfying home project!
First thing’s first - take it all out so you are left with an empty space
Check all labels for expiration dates - toss what’s expired. Whatever stays should be sorted so your categories are clear
Now that you know what needs to stay, here’s how you can contain and organize your food items so you are left with a gorgeous and functional space in your kitchen!
We do LOVE to decant food into user-friendly containers - this involves taking packaged goods out of their original packaging (think pasta, cereal, baking ingredients, etc.) This keeps food fresh and easy to see. We tend to lean toward OXO since their ubiquitous pop tops are readily available should you need to buy more down the road, you’ll be able to expand your collection with ease
