I promised I would show you what our recent organizational project was. THIS is what did with those Snapware containers:
But that won’t do. You want to see more.
We maximized the space in our pantry last year by having the shelves torn out and putting in drawers. Makes a whole lot more sense so as to not forget what is hiding in the back. And of course … it’s so much prettier. There’s just something about a pretty pantry.
Labeled pulls were a must. We found these online at Spokane Hardware.
We know what’s in each drawer. We know exactly where to put stuff away and where to find things.
I labeled the drawers (and everything in my house) with our handy dandy label maker.
A few other things found in the pantry, such as grissini (new to us).
Familiar with them? They’re all natural, low calorie, low fat, low carb kind of breadstick. I enjoy a couple of these each day and reach for them instead of Oreos, peanut M&M’s, and other delectable but not healthy snacks. I’d rather have the other stuff, but we’re working on some habits and these are actually tasty.
Back to the pantry. Let’s see … a few aprons.
I know you’re curious to have a peek inside one of those drawers, right? Alright. But don’t judge.
And because everyone loves before & after shots, here you go my friends.
If you happen to be local (AZ) and happen to need any woodwork done, John Broderick is the man. He is genius with anything wood and has done a few amazing projects for us. bbfurn@juno.com | 623.566.2232. I’m sharing this with you like I would share a great resource with any friend. Not because John asked me to say anything (I’m not sure he even knows how many people read my blog) but because he is just darn talented.
And I like to share.

It’s definitely impressive what you were able to achieve with those snapware containers. Your new pantry looks amazing! I really like the color wood that you chose for the drawers as well. You’ve inspired me to do some renovation around my house. Thanks again!

This may be off base, but how about changing the theme every now and then? Maybe not if it won’t look right, but I just get tired of seeing the same thing all the time. My own computer has about 1000 wallpapers that randomly rotate every 15 minutes, lol. Adult ADD I guess. Good post though, thanks.

Hi, Becky!
Since it’s been a few months since your pantry reveal (which I loved), I was wondering if I could ask you a question. How are your SnapWare containers working out for your cereal and snack storage? I’ve been highly considering ordering some, but I noticed on the Container Store site that someone had commented that hers didn’t seem to seal tight enough.
Thanks!
