What a clever and simple idea that could make such a massive difference in your pantry!!!
I have been looking EVERYWHERE to buy these.. does someone have link as to where I can buy these online?? Thanks
Ooh that looks great!
So simple and so clever!!
I also LOVE the wooden lazy susan’s from Ikea, I have 2 in my pantry, one for my sauces and condiments and another for my baking stuff.
Sometimes I like to walk into my pantry and just spin them…for fun!
Big W have the metal / wire mag holders
you can get black metal ones at The Reject Shop for $5
Love this idea..I am a total neat freak when it comes to organising my canned foods!!!
Kat, this idea is fantastic! I’m so excited to try it. We’ve got gazillions of those small cans in our pantry. Thanks!
Oooooooh love this idea! I have a bunch of magazine holders I could use for this!!!
I really need any hints, tips on organising a whole pantry. I went through my pantry today and have multiple items of a lot of things mainly because they have been pushed to the back so put in on the shopping list. I try and have dedicated shelves for cereals and spreads and another shelf for cooking. The cooking shelf is the worst as packets of flour, coconut, sugar etc all in packets that the contents could spill out if knocked over. I do have some tupperware containers for rice amd sugar which I find really good. If you have any other pantry organising threads of thinking of doing one that would be great.
I bought a lot of little pantry storage baskety things from Howards (even some normal little ones from BigW etc, Starmaid or whatever they are called) and use 1 for dried fruits/nuts, 1 for recipe mixes (with a use by date within 3 months – the others are in another basket behind to stop me from chucking out gone off ones a year later!) Another basket for treats like jellies etc, a big one for bags of chips, cookies etc, one for hot drinks (coffees, milkshake powder etc) and so on. Very easy to find things now. As for flours, sugars etc, things that will spill, everything in its own tupperware/container.
I use soft drink can dispensers for some of my tins 🙂
I organise my apostrophes so they don’t wind up in the wrong places. It’s “cans”, not “can’s”.
Great idea! I went to Bunnings recently and bought a couple of can holders. They were only $4 and work a treat.
