pantRy

Notice I didn't forget to put the "r" in pantry this time - embarrassing myself again. :)

Anyways -- my pantry is nice and organized now and so pretty. And every time I go to get something out of it - I smile and admire it.

Wish I would have taken some real "before" pictures of it -- because the one I have is nothing compared to what it was. I had a bunch of food storage piled up in there - so you couldn't even walk in it. By the time I remembered to take a picuture I had already taken all of that out - plus cleared the top shelf which holds my cereal which is cereal from Costco - so it's huge and tall - too tall to stand upright on the shelf, so I had them turned sideways. Not pretty.

Anyways -- at least you can see from this picture - it was not looking good in there. No order and just a ton of junk everywhere.

Before....

Cleared out and scrubbed down. I vacuumed out at least 20 daddy long-legs out of here. I am not exaggerating because that is so disgusting that I would not try to brag about that. :)

Our water heater is inside our pantry - so there are pipes coming in with small spaces around - allowing spiders to make there way in. We have to vacuum them out too often - it's gross.
food -- everywhere......
put in some cute contact paper (yes this is the same contact paper I used as the background on the bulletin boards in Primary at church - in case you noticed ) .......
put the stuff away....... already so much better
and finally - I bought a shelf thing from Costco - this way I will have a little extra room plus my KitchenAid has a home!!
Ta - DA!!!!!
