Want to just buy something to make your pantry look great? Here are our top pantry organization finds:
- lazy susan turn tables - best for bottles
- double lazy susan - perfect for small bottles of oils or condiments
- stackable canisters - love for things like flour, sugar
- tiered shelves - great if you have lots of smaller items and deep shelves
- under shelf baskets - great if you can't adjust your shelf heights
- can holders - great for canned goods or canned drinks
- can risers - we DIYed risers from scrap wood in our condo, so nothing got lost in the back!
- pull out drawers - the most intensive option, but a great way to be able to access everything!
