Hey! You got pantry five!
Scroll to read more about this pantry layout.
this is a perfect pantry for you if…
You’re seriously organized and you need to see everything you have.
Decanting (aka transferring food into canisters) can be a game changer, but it’s also kind of a part-time job. If you want a pantry full of canisters, just know it does require consistent upkeep to keep it looking and functioning its best.
That said… we LOVE a canister pantry because it makes it easy to:
see exactly what food you have
spot what’s running low at a glance
keep everything looking clean, calm, and cohesive
But we also know this style isn’t for everyone and that’s totally okay!
This client’s main needs were:
They’re trying to eat healthier, so they wanted their snacks and go-to foods front and center
They wanted to know exactly what to restock on grocery day (no guessing!)
They wanted to see everything they owned so nothing got forgotten in the back
✨ Side note: A clear + visible pantry setup like this can be especially helpful for people with ADHD. The whole “out of sight, out of mind” struggle becomes a lot less of an issue when everything is easy to see. So this is definitely worth considering when deciding if decanting is worth the time for your household!
