Hello!

Please help me – I am trying to organise my pantry and I have tried several times to do this and it starts off great and I feel like I am getting somewhat organised but then it just gets messy again and everything falls on top of everything else and I end up just closing the door and not thinking about it until I need to find something and can’t.

I have bought containers and filled them up and try to organise the pantry in some sort of order and it works for about a week and then somehow it just gets super messy again and I feel like it is so unorganised. What tips or tricks do you have that you would like to share with me to help me tackle this once more?

  • Iit sounds like you have kids lol… no seriously my pantry is the same.. The labelled baskets help a bit but honestly as soon as the kids get in there it just turns to custard..


  • You have to be strict on yourself about keeping it tidy, otherwise it snowballs into chaos again. Group similar things together, don’t overcrowd the centre.


  • We organise our pantry according to products and most used and always return items to the same spot. We always tidy the pantry as part of the daily kitchen cleaning routine.


  • I think the key is as well is to keepthings tidy. Take the time to pack things neatly away after doing groceries and after the use of items


  • I don’t really have a system. I just put things in the same place so that when I’m looking for something I know where it is and when I’m restocking, I know where to put everything. I hope that makes sense.


  • Clear containers help a lot as you can see what’s running low. Label them all. Put the things you use most in the most accessible place.


  • I organise the shelves on items. One shelf with mainly labeled containers, one shelf with empty containers, one shelf sandwhich toppings, one shelf with breakfast cereals oats granola seeds and nuts, one shelf with tins & pasta types, one shelf with herbs and spices, one shelf with fruits that don’t need the fridge, one shelf with a variety of coffee and teas etc


  • I have containers along with spinning stands, I find the spinning stands so helpful and declutters bottles and then I have steps for my spices
