Small Pantry Organization Tips And 53 Ideas

Storage is usually one of the main matters of concern in every home, especially in functional spaces like kitchens. A pantry, even quite a small one, can easily solve this problem in your kitchen and declutter it instantly. If you are planning to make a pantry or already have a small one, this roundup is for you as we’ve gathered the best ways to organize such a pantry getting maximal functionality and keeping the style up.

Cabinets For Small Pantries

Use risers to keep all your cans and spice jars within view and reach, no matter how far back they might be. In-cabinet puck lights can be used to illuminate even the darkest depths of your pantry. Pull-out shelves are, without any doubt, the best investment you can make when designing a pantry cabinet. If pull-out shelving isn’t an option, use removable bins to store your food items. Don’t forget to take advantage of your cabinet door with mounted spice racks or another storage solution.

Basket Storage For Small Pantries

To maintain a cohesive style throughout your kitchen pantry, use baskets to hide the original packaging of your favorite goodies. This is especially important if you have an open-concept pantry space. Baskets make excellent partners of wire shelving. Wire shelves are affordable and easy to install. However, they aren’t the best storage solution for small items. Baskets are great for hard-to-store items like chip bags, protein bars, and other individually wrapped foods.

Mount shallow baskets to your pantry door to hold spices, baking supplies, and canned goods. If using baskets that are tightly woven and not see-through, take the time to add labels to streamline your pantry organization system.

Place large baskets on your pantry floor to hold produce or small kitchen appliances. This will keep everything organized while also keeping pantry items away from dirt and moisture.

Organization Tips For Small Pantries

Going to have containers or jars that are similar? Label them by item, person, or recipe. Pantry labels are also important for any container that’s not readily identifiable.

Store beverage cans and bottles in stacked dispensers. A lazy susan will make quick work of awkward items like tall bottles or kitchen utensils.

Make the space functional. If you need a step stool or ladder to reach your pantry’s highest shelves, invest in one that suits your kitchen style. Better to have everything you need close at hand than to hunt for a stool every time you need a box of cereal.

Organizing a small pantry doesn’t have to break the bank. Start by decluttering and donating items you don’t use. Then, repurpose items you already have, like mason jars for storing grains and pasta. DIY shelving and drawer dividers made from inexpensive materials can also help keep costs down while maintaining an organized pantry.
