No labels? Over time I can see things being tossed in any bin. Love the wire baskets and I agree about the mason jar lids. They are easier to use, clean - and they look pretty. 😁
Hi Sheila! You're spot on, we actually added labels to all the baskets after filming for just that reason! And we do truly love mason jars -- they're really versatile.
What a great way to organize a mini pantry (aka cabinet). I love turntables and use them everywhere. The iDesign are the best! The baskets make it easy for some of us vertically challenged folks to grab them near the bottom. I'll have to check them out to see where I can use them in my cabinets! Also, I didn't know you could change out jar tops! Where can I find them?
Thank you Nancy! We love all our fellow turntable users :) There are lots of great options for the mason jar lids, Target usually carries at least one type. Our favorites are these white ones, and Amazon carries them as well: amzn.to/2V4EjDk
Hi Estella! You can usually find a version of them at any home goods store, in the food storage section! The ones we used in this pantry were from Amazon: amzn.to/3guYK4x
Great ideas! May I suggest really using up items completely before keeping all the other items/jars full. For example you have spaghetti noodles almost empty, but 3 other jars of different shaped pasta, then perhaps plan meals around using them up before spending money on spaghetti noodles. Otherwise those won’t ever be used up and once you know your most eaten items stick to just purchasing what you know you will eat and love. Over time this will help with organization and space because there will be less to organize and less of all the items behind the others.
Great video! Any advice for a super deep pantry cabinet? We have a tall/skinny cabinet but it’s really deep (about 24in) and struggle with losing everything that gets pushed back behind the first row.
Kitt has similar deep shelves and she's all about what she calls "The Big Papa" of spin trays: bit.ly/2vG1n0l They're almost 21" and great for accessing deep spaces. Deep pullout baskets may also help, and of course slide-out shelves are a dream as well.
We are definitely not done with small spaces! Bedrooms are on the idea list and dorm rooms are now added! If you have specific dorm room challenges, let us know. We want future content to be as helpful as possible.
@@PracticallyPerfect Recently I have been touring colleges and the dorms. One thing I am seeing is that there isn't much (if any) shelf space. There is a desk and a nightstand, but trying to figure out a practical way to keep my own things organized while still having studying space is a concern.

Thank you so much for this lol. The last month I've been struggling to organize my small pantry
We absolutely get it! Let us know your pantry progress and what worked for you!
My pantry is ridiculously small, thank you for this!!
Thank you Heather! Our love to you and your mini pantry :)
Where do you find those airtight lids? I love that idea. Thanks!
Hi Kris! We snagged those on Amazon - and Kitt uses them in her pantry as well! amzn.to/3bs8J7q
Thank you so much!

Where do you get just plastic lids for the jars?
Hi Estella! You can usually find a version of them at any home goods store, in the food storage section! The ones we used in this pantry were from Amazon: amzn.to/3guYK4x
How do you recommend keeping track of expiration dates when you decant so many items into other containers?
Hi Robin, that is an excellent question! Typically we use a chalk marker to write the expiration date onto the bottom of the jar.

Have you ever considered doing a video in regards to a college dorm? Or even a small bedroom?
