We have these great large cabinets in our kitchen that we use for pantry and appliance storage. People tell me all the time how much they envy these large cabinets. Well let me tell you, they are great, but not for a pantry. The upper half I was using for pantry was a mess, and I had just cleaned it like 3 days ago. It is so deep stuff gets lost and I hate it. I have an actual pantry in my laundry room just off the kitchen that I just use for a storage space. So I decided to clear it out and use it for a pantry.
Well, that created this:
A big mess all over my kitchen! And Hours of work!!!
Then a frenzy to Hobby Lobby for some cute glass canisters that I thought were on sale 1/2 price according to the ad. Well, Miss Brooklyn and I headed out armed to buy canisters, loaded our cart with 10 of them. as well as a few 25% off bandanas, some 1/2 price ribbon, and one cut of full price lace (to use our 40% off coupon on!).
We get to the front ready to pay, excited about our new organized pantry and the lady said these weren't included in the sale b/c they are considered craft glass. Bummer. So I put them back to wait patiently for a sale. But I am not known as a patient person, so my Mom and I decided it would be a great idea to print off 10 - 40% off coupons and take my whole family to buy the canisters. So my willing participants, 1 daughter, 2 grandmothers, 1 mom, 1 brother, 1 nephew and me, head out to HL with my faithful grandpa as chauffer! So we go thru the lines 2 times, one canister per person per trip and we got them all, well all but 2 because at that point they had sold 2 of the medium size ones I wanted. But I was thrilled!!! So This afternoon I spent the entire time reorganizing my new pantry!!!
And I am soooo Proud!
Before:
See how nice the canisters look!!! I just need 2-3 more!
