Thank you Martha! I’m talking about thee Martha! Her new organization line at Staples is awesome!
Today this post is dedicated to her, because without her perfect little stick on labels, this pantry would not have been nearly as pretty! 🙂
Here is what my pantry looked like when I opened it this morning. Yes, I know what you’re thinking…where’s the food? I haven’t gone grocery shopping in like two weeks, because I knew this day was coming and needed to use up as much as possible.
Quite honestly though, I don’t keep a stocked pantry usually. I know. GASP! I do not have a stock pile like some bloggers out there, and if you’re reading this and you’re on that show “Doomsday Preppers” I know. We’re screwed! Anyways…
Before…
I had these wire shelf thingys from IKEA. I don’t remember the name of them (sorry) but I think you can find them in the laundry section. I love them because they have easily doubled the size of our pantry without having to completely redo it. Those labels…They are the sticker labels I have on the jars. All I did was stick them on some cardboard, and zip tied them to the front of the baskets.
Same labels. Jars are from IKEA as well.
The burlap bin I found for $7.50 at Staples on clearance! I wish they had more! It now houses all those loose snacks that get thrown around all the time. The brown leather tray was in my garage, and it matched perfect with the new bin. Plus it keeps my bottles from being knocked over now.
So there it is! My newly organized pantry! Functional, clean, and puuuuuuurty ;o)
I hope I’ve inspired you to organize your pantry for Spring, errr…or at least head to Staples for those great labels! ;o)
Thanks for stopping by!
My problem is that I always shop hungry, and being from a large family I seem to think my little immediate family will eat way more than we will. I think my pantry’s only hope is if I stay out of the grocery store for awhile. Well, that and I do food storage, so I have three pantries. Looks nice though!
Food storage does NOT work for us. We end up throwing more away than using. It’s just not practical for us. Thanks 🙂
Your pantry looks fabulous!!! thanks so much to linking up to Project Queen and following me back!
Thank you 🙂
Man oh man, what I wouldn’t give to have a pantry space to even organize!!! Looks great!
Thank you 🙂
You can’t go wrong with Martha 🙂 The pantry looks great and organized. I love those clear jars!
IKEA and Martha…odd couple huhh? They do go nicely together though 😉 Thank you!
So purdy 🙂 You can come do mine now!
ha! how’d your fridge turn out?
Looks great! I was sooo tempted to buy the Martha labels, but then realized I make my own so had to stop myself. I have started to think I might utilize some of her products though, because it’s so nice to have something precut and ready to go! Great job on your pantry!

I wish I could make my own! I’ve been wanting to buy the Cricut forever, but I always seem to stop myself somehow! Eventually I’ll bite the bullet. Thank you 🙂
It looks fabulous! I’m so jealous, I don’t even know what’s lurking in the back of my pantry anymore! You have inspired me to tackle it! Thank you so much for linking up to It’s a Party!
Awesome pantry makeover!!

Sticker *on* the bin! Brilliant. I just redid my pantry but couldn’t figure out how to label the fabric bins. Duh, just put the sticken on it. I can’t tell you how this has saved me from pulling down bins looking for he one with the cookie cutters in it:)

The IKEA carts are called Antonius and are 27.5 inches tall. They retail for $24.99 here in Canada which is very reasonable. I’m heading out to get some, my pantry is in desperate need of some help. Thanks so much for the great idea!
Thanks for your comment Jennifer! Good luck organizing! 🙂
