Hello Reader!

When your pantry is purged, organized and streamlined to function well for you, the whole process is simply easier. You know what you have and can quickly access what you need. Creating your grocery list is quicker, planning out your weekly meals is smoother and you get to stop losing money on food waste. If we have to cook dinner most days, we should get to feel calm and organized in our kitchens. Of course you can simply gaze upon your pantry's organized beauty as you enjoy your take out evening too! 😍

Let's organize our pantries!

The ole pantry shuffle 👩‍🍳

So it almost dinner time again and you find yourself elbow deep in expired and open (yet forgotten) food items in your pantry. That one ingredient you need that you knew you had seems to have disappeared. You get frustrated and may find yourself ordering take out...again. You know life (and the daily dinner dance 😉) would be so much easier if your panty was organized, but thought of it is also exhausting. That’s why we’re sharing our best pantry organization tips to help you transform you pantry and to make life easier.

Whether you have a small pantry or a spacious one, these tips will help you make the most out of your pantry space.

Snack dealer? 🍪

If you have school aged children at home then you know there's no hunger quite like the "just got home from school" hunger. Snacks are a must in most households, even the ones without kids, am I right? 😉

The problem with snacks is we often have a large variety with different, often bulky or hard to keep closed, packaging. So we end up with a messy assortment of chips here, cookies there and who knows what's found it's way to the back of the pantry. Not only can the mess be stressful, but you are likely losing money in wasted snacks that either got left open or "hid" past their expiration date.

So how do we fix this?

We organize of course! But the biggie with snacks is using the right organizing product for the job. That's the difference maker both in creating a functional system AND keeping it organized.

A few of our favs 😍

1. ​Clear containers with dividers allow you to customize compartments based on your snack selection.
2. ​Open front clear bins allows you to reach in easily without having to pull out the entire bin.
3. ​Deep drawer clear bins are perfect for keeping snack bags, pouches, and bulk treats neatly contained.
4. ​Elfa drawer with dividers is the ultimate customizable solution for snack organization designed to fit in your pantry.
5. ​Smart store inserts create vertical compartments that help keep your snacks standing upright and easy to grab
6. ​Baskets and bins are a classic yet highly effective way to keep snacks organized and easily accessible.
7. ​Labeling is a simple but powerful tool in snack organization, making it easier to find exactly what you’re looking for.
