A New Home

Those fun red baskets have a new home!


I love having a large pantry in the Hayley Home, but have learned that the large pantry actually has me. In other words…I can’t find anything. I purchase duplicate items. Or worse, I don’t purchase what I need. Something had to be done!

Enter the red baskets! By grouping like items, I can now easily find things in the pantry. Plus the red makes a nice pop of color against the chocolate brown interior wall color.

Isn’t that better?
Projects still to come to tame this out-of-control pantry include:
  • Hanging the step stool so it’s out of the way
  • Moving dry goods into proper storage containers
  • Adding dividers (like these and these) to vary shelf height

    Yeah, like get the bottle of cinnamon and he finds it buried among 50 other bottles, all looking alike. In a red basket.

  3. These comments made us both laugh!
