{Day 7} Food Pantery

Day #7 ~ Getting Organized Challenge (The Pantry)


This little pantry in our kitchen has not always been a pantry. When we first moved in almost 3 years ago it healed our trash can and brooms. The shelves weren't always there. We also didn't know there were supposed to be any shelves. We used this tiny corner shelf for EVERYTHING. Its crazy that this little cabinet held so much. So along came baby and our kitchen needed more shelving space. I called our housing maintenance and they came and put some shelves in for us. Totally made my day.  Felt so much better not having to cram every can good and box item into this one shelf. 
This is the shelf we used for the better part of 3 years.

Its small but really deep. But we did need something bigger!

Before:

After
When I went grocery shopping about 2weeks ago I had already cleaned out and re-organized the top shelf so it didn't need it. 
I got a huge diaper box full of food that we have had for a while and just have not ate to donate to the Tornado victims in our town. 

Tomorrow is a day of rest for the challenge. I really like this challenge a lot, I cant believe we are already in day 7! Its going by fast.
