Are you the type to have pantry items stuffed in every corner of cabinet space throughout your home? Maybe you have isolated the mess to your kitchen, but still need to consolidate to one or two cabinets? Our experts are here to guide you through your next project!
Spices
The most problematic area for many people is their spice cabinet. You have 100 spices from different companies and all sorts of different sized jars, bags, and tubs. The best organization tip for your spices is CONSISTENCY! Find a set of jars that match each other, and plan on buying future spices in bulk to refill the jars, instead of buying new jars that don’t match the size and shape of your current system. Need an idea? Check out this set on Amazon!
Once you have the same sized jars, the organization comes easily! You can get cabinet organization systems that have sliding drawers, or tiered systems that lay flat in a kitchen drawer. You can see several options in effect at the Container Store by North Scottsdale. Once you have your organization system picked out, you just have to label your jars and you are free to season!
Pasta and Grains
Pasta and Grains can be sold in a variety of bags and different shaped boxes that make your pantry look cluttered and messy. The easiest way to clean up these storage areas is to put your pasta and grains in different sized jars of the same style. Then you can have your long linguine in the same type of storage as your oats, which creates an appealing visual for anyone opening your pantry doors. These mismatched jars from Amazon are just different enough to give you space in all the right places!
Frequency
The last tip for pantry organization is to arrange items based on the frequency that you use them in your kitchen. Do you eat oats every morning for breakfast? Then your oats should be located towards the front of your pantry area rather than tucked away in the back. By putting your most commonly eaten items towards the front, you eliminate the need to constantly remove other items that are placed in front. Not only does this create a user-friendly experience for you, but it also prolongs the organization you have created so you do not consistently feel the need to rearrange your pantry.
With these few tips, you will be able to keep your pantry in tip-top shape and in an organized manner that any homeowner would be envious of. Does this seem like too much for you to handle on your own? Call Delphinium Concierge today to help get your pantry in order!
