If you don’t have a kitchen pantry, no problem! Making a pantry-less kitchen and keeping it organized is possible. Learn how!
When you think of your dream kitchen, what top three essentials come to mind? Isn’t a designated and organized pantry space makes the top of the list? Kitchens are one of the highest functioning spaces in the entire home and a pantry provides storage for everything from dry foods to small appliances to bulk paper products. However, not all kitchens were created with walk-in food closets or floor-to-ceiling pantry cupboards. So how does one make the most of a pantry-less kitchen?
1. Wire Shelving
Wire shelving adds a modern and industrial vibe to the kitchen, will offer an abundance of vertical storage for daily cooking supplies. Although these types of shelves can be trickier to keep visually appealing, selecting decorative storage bins and baskets as well as products with cohesive packaging will really help to create a clean and functional storage area.
2. Bookshelves
Bookshelves are wonderfully flexible when it comes to storage in any space of the home, and the kitchen is no exception. They offer the ability to add in decorative doors and drawers to create a combination of open and concealed storage. Place dishes and cookbooks on upper shelves and fill lower drawers and cupboards with less sightly supplies.
3. Wardrobe/Armoire
When it comes to setting up the highest functioning pantry, a wardrobe cabinet or armoire are great. Not just for clothing or televisions anymore, these cabinets can be customized in a variety of creative ways to add drawers, adjustable shelving and door organizers.
