Organizing Tips That Really Work: Pantry at a Drawer

If you’ve got a kitchen as little as mine, then you may have only enough cabinetry to store your dishes, and not anything to spare. Instead of attempting to shove dry goods to a cupboard or storing them at a hallway cabinet, think about using a deep drawer rather.

This drawer is deep, making it perfect for all these tall airtight storage containers. However, this tip would work even in the event that you’ve got shallower drawers — only use smaller storage containers. This setup would be much more effective with the help of a label manufacturer. Ensure that each storage container filled with dried goods is labeled correctly to simplify your own cooking.

Unsure which containers to use? Try an airtight container set in several different dimensions, which can be helpful if your drawer isn’t too big as the one from the photo above, or if you’re planning to use more than 1 drawer. Smaller containers may be used for spices, and the moderate and massive containers are great for grains and flour.

If you’re going to be including cereal or other pourable grains in your pantry, then keep things neat and clean with airtight pourable containers.

While using these instead of cereal boxes gives your pull-out pantry a great look, it also prevents the mess that comes from out snacking from the box, and also will keep everything fresh longer.
