Nothing like the pantry I grew up with on the farm, but works pretty good. You know, make due with what you have.

Heh, I like that approach better than what happened in my apartment: a previous tenant turned a pantry into a closet, and the Mister stores clothes in it when we could really use the space for canned goods!

Hm, time to reclaim.



A hook, a book, and a good cup of coffee....

I turned a laundry room into a pantry in one of my houses and had my DH build me a laundry room in the basement. I loved it and it was great to be in there with sun shining in the window. There were wall to wall shelves and my kids still said there was nothing in the house to eat.

I like that ; you come up with the cleverist of ideas .
I have a closet in the kitchen ;
one of these days I am going to get hubby to put shelves in there for my cook books etc.
it is just big enough for that , I should have quite a collection in there ; especially gooseberry patch cookbooks . hugs sheila

I love the storage on the door. My wife and I live in an 1890 farmhouse and storage is always a premium. It's great when you can use every last inch of a cupboard, pantry or closet.

I would love a closet pantry like that. I have shelves in my basement, which is nice, but the stairs are a bother. Looks Good!!
