Anyone else have a small pantry and need ideas on how to organize it better? Let me share my tips and tricks on how to organize a small pantry.

Sponsored By Bed Bath and Beyond

Our pantry is the size of a closet, so I struggle to get the maximized space out of these shelf units. Bed Bath and Beyond challenged me to find products that would help with this issue. I am sharing how to organize a small pantry using some compact items from this amazing store!

This was the current state of the pantry. One. Hot. Mess. I was shoving all I could into the space and just hoped the door would stay closed! Can you see the difference after this project?

If you are not quite ready to to organize your pantry today, pin this blog post for later so you can refer back to it when you start.

Step One: The Pantry Plan

I took some time to analyze the pantry and think about what I wanted to have happen.

• What food containers did I need?
• How much food of each item did we usually go through?
• Did I need shelves, baskets or closed lid containers?

I also measured all the shelves to know what sizes I was dealing with. This really helped when I start shopping on the Bed Bath and Beyond website. I found pieces that fit the size of my shelving perfectly.

Step Two: Shop Bed Bath and Beyond

I sat on the Bed Bath and Beyond website for a few hours, searching all the possibilities from what they had. And they have a lot. Honestly there are so many options and endless ideas to help you get organized.

There are always sales and coupons available – keep an eye out for those. These are the things I grabbed:

Step Three: Clean Out Pantry

Next up I clean out the pantry, wipe down shelves, and throw out food we are not using. It is amazing what can get stored in there!

All my boxes arrived from Bed Bath and Beyond and the products were VERY easy to put together.

Step Four: Organize The Pantry

This is the funnest part! I added the large cabinets to the bottom of the pantry to story my potatoes and heavier goods. Then I used the sliding cabinets in the middle shelves and they added so much more storage space for me. Yah!

Finally I put added the baskets where I had “piles” of things that needed a home. I can not believe how much space was created using these products from Bed Bath and Beyond.

You can see such a difference with this side by side photo:

Isn’t that amazing? I feel like I need to go shopping for more food since I have all this extra space! Here is a link to all the products I used for this project:

This was such a great way for me to appreciate the small pantry that I have. I am so excited each time I open the door. Small pantry problems are over!
