Pretty much since Brett and I moved into our house, our kitchen pantry has been a cluttered mess. Things were just thrown into random places, with no method of organization what so ever. After grocery shopping today, and after fighting to get everything I bought into the pantry, I decided it was time to tackle the mess. It was an easy and cheap project that is going to very much save my sanity every time I open the pantry door!
Here are the before pictures:
Awful isn't it? I'm so embarrassed to admit that was in my kitchen! All I did then was remove every single thing from the pantry to the counter for sorting and throwing things away.

As I removed the items, I tried to organize things in groups on the counter so it would be easier for putting things back in the pantry. I bought 6 plastic baskets from the dollar store, and a package of 6 tight-sealed containers as well. After all the sorting and organizing, I can finally be proud of my pantry!
Isn't it lovely? To add one more bit of organization, I printed tags from my computer and used permanent craft adhesive to tape it to some construction paper. Then, I "laminated" the tag with some regular clear tape to make the tags more sturdy and durable.
