I had taken over a bedroom in our tiny cottage when we moved to the lake and converted it to a pantry. It was serving me quite well until I found these delightful tablescaping blogs....now it over-floweth.
This is my kitchen storage
See that doorway just behind the cabinets? Welcome to my pantry.
Behind the door ~
My shelving is made by Plano which I purchased at Walmart. It comes 4 shelves to a package and I cut the tubular legs on my mitre saw to the size I need. I've reconfigured this little 8 X 10 room often. I'm not sure it can handle much more, but it is great to be able to close the door on it.
back to the kitchen ~ a spot above the refridgerator for pitchers.
Now, these areas held all my dishes BEFORE I discovered tablescaping. My new purchases found a spot on the floor.
another unit to the rescue ~ this one on wheels.
This has got to stop!!!
But how does one resist when the colors are so perfect?
I think ITLLDO needs an addition!!
Thanks for stopping by and a huge thank you to The Tablescaper for hosting this fun blog....You have gotten me in soooo much trouble ~ but how fun it is!

Ooooooo, this is WONDERFUL!!!
Such great organization & everything is within reach but out of site. What GREAT storage spaces you've created. I'm jealous. I want a roll around cart, too. LOL
p.s. I have the same buttery yellow little casserole dishes!! Aren't they fun?
Your dish room is wonderful and I'm sure you can fit a few more of those rolling carts in there! YES, tell me how can we resist when they keep coming up with more and more fantastic dishes, each more perfect than the last? LOL! Love those ones you've shown!

Oh girl! I love that dish pantry. I'm getting so many great ideas from all these posts! You have a beautiful kitchen and beautiful dishes!!
Oh, you're so good! I love seeing your storage! Your pantry is to die for!! Love all your beautiful dishes!
Be a sweetie,

I am getting so jealous. I just have one closet that I hide everything. I try to keep it organized...but!!! Your Pantry area is fantastic!
Your pantry for dishes is so organized!!!
Thanks so much for coming and joining the party. You are sooo lucky to have that pantry off your kitchen to store your treasures! But no need to worry, there's clearly more room there. And those kitchen cabinets look amazing.
It's been so much fun finding where we do keep it all!

Wow! The beauty of organization! It is amazing what these fun blogs can do to us! :-) Can I inquire as to the stability of the Plano shelving? Are you satisfied with the quality? I have not heard of it before... thanks!

I don't know how I missed this, as I did this event too.

Wow !! I looove the way your pantry looks. It is so clean, everything is in sight (almost) and yet it is so well stocked.
After coming across your and 'where do you keep it all'...plus a few more blogs earlier, I am not too sure if the virtual world will come to my rescue should my indulgences get out of hand :)!!
Kudos to keeping your collection so well.
