Welcome back to the SOS! Blog Series. If this is your first time here, WELCOME! This is my take on your spaces. Even though I’m not doing in-home organizing these days, I still want to help you get organized. I’ll share what I would do, which products I would use and how I would organize your space to make it more functional.

This week I am helping my friend Sydney with her pantry. Like so many of us, she doesn’t have a formal pantry space. She is making the most of her kitchen by creating a “pantry” by designating a group of shelves as her pantry. She asked for some help sprucing up this space so she can better see what she has and maximize the space.

I relate deeply to Syd’s plight as I have two shelves and a prayer that acts as a pantry in my own home. She calls it her “sad little excuse for a pantry.” I wanted to help her make it a beautiful little pantry. Here’s what I suggested:

Suggested Products:

• 3 SMALL Clear Storage Bins with Handles

• 1 MEDIUM Clear Storage Bins with Handles

• 1x 9" Clear Lazy Susan by THE

• 1 White Chalk Pen for Labeling

• Even if you don’t have a formal pantry, you can designate a set of shelves in your kitchen for food storage.

• Use broad categories for your groupings (think cereal instead of rice krispies) to allow the space to grow and mold with your ever-changing needs.

• Remove idividually wrapped items from their boxes and place in a labeled bin so you can see how many you have and when you need more.
  

I’m not always lucky enough to see the final results of a space like this, but Sydney was kind enough to share. I think it turned out great! What about you? How do you think it turned out?

Do you have an organizing dilemma you need help with? If you have a space you’d like to have considered for a future “SOS” post, email me one picture and a short list of your overall concerns. Measurements are helpful too! Submit your spaces to organizingnashville@gmail.com
