The pantry....

This past weekend we continued with our projects that we started last weekend. We got our curtains hung, I got all the laundry done (not even one thing in the dirty clothes baskets...well, at least there wasn't at the end of the day on Sunday!!), cleaned the floors on all 3 levels, cleaned the bathroom and I did a general pick up of the entire house.

After curtains...


One thing that needed to be done was organizing the pantry. We just moved into this house in March, so it isn't like it has had lots of time to get messy, yet somehow it was. As you can see from the before picture, I had already incorporated baskets to help me organize things. That helped a lot, but a big problem was that I never really finished organizing in there. There were still things that I hadn't found a home for, so I would just stick them in the pantry. The pantry was already pretty full and we had gone shopping at Costco and a regular grocery store so we had things sitting on the counter to put away. I didn't want it to all go in a messy pantry, so leaving it sitting out reminded me to clean my pantry. It worked!! It still isn't 100%, but it is WAY better!!

Here is a picture of it after I finished organizing it when we first moved in....


Here it is after a few months of use...
