Pantry Sneak Peek

I can’t believe March is almost over! This year is flying by!
At the beginning of the month I picked my pantry to be my March project as part of Lisa’s Before and After Party. The “after” reveal won’t be until next week, but I wanted to share a little teaser of what I’ve been up to. Believe it or not, I’ve actually made really good progress so far.
I thought the shelves were already white…until I started painting them white. Look at the difference between the top freshly painted shelf and the bottom yet to be painted shelf!

I took at trip to IKEA and was in and out in 35 minutes! That has to be a world record!

Ringo and Abby’s treats are even organized now!


Here’s my pantry to-do list from the beginning of the month:
Paint walls
Paint shelves
Update switches/outlets to white
Replace light fixture
Move ironing board to laundry room
Buy container for Ringo and Abby’s food
Trash expired food
Donate unused items
Recycle plastic bags
System for storing plastic bags (maybe something like this)
Rearrange items on shelves
Buy baskets and containers

Next week I’ll share how I did with that list and the full “after” reveal! Stay tuned.
