This looks so beautiful, and I can't believe how good that contact paper looks!! Just a heads up though, your hemp seeds need to be stored in the fridge! They go rancid very quickly at room temperature!!
@@niecybaby1960 because some of us don't care about the exposure duh and also some of us use them to store non food items. Hello maybe ask someone in your circle before you make yourself look like a jerk.
I literally had to pause your vid to make sure my expensive storage containers were okay. Whew... #5. I assumed they were but we can't assume anything. Thanks for the ideas!!
Also, when you said “Scandi” 😂 my kids say “scandy” when something is too “scandalous” so my daughter what like “what? A scandy-pantry?” Lol. Loving this channel! Thanks!!
Nice video, but... Did you feel that it was a responsible thing to do to sell the containers to others if you thought that they were too toxic for your own use?
I have to admit I didn’t think I’d see anything new in your video because I’ve already seen so many pantry makeovers. But your ideas and your spontaneous joy are contagious. Thanks for the inspiration!
I’m so glad your shared the info on the different types of plastic and the number the scale. Very good info to know. I guess I’ve been living under a rock because I’ve not heard this before so thank you for sharing. You don’t know, what you don’t know...🤔
Well this video convinced me to do this to my cheap wire shelves. I've never thought that my pantry could be something beautiful. This video was so well done and you filmed it so well that I can follow along and do it as well Thank you
Elle, this is truly the nicest and most beautiful pantry makeover I've seen on TH-cam, and believe me when I tell you I am not easily impressed. You know what? To blazes with Pinterest. Sorry, no offense to anyone, but I am old school from way before the internet or social media were created. It is not important what anyone else thinks of your progress. What is important is that you've taken your own God-given talent and skills to create something beautiful and functional (for almost no $), which you can be proud of for years to come. What a wonderful lesson to impart on your children! To me, that is sooo much more important than being Pinterest or Instagram worthy (although it is). You obviously created this space with love, and it is genuinely inspiring. Well done, girl! 👏 You have just earned another new subscriber. 😉
I hope i don’t defend you but I have a question about how you and your husband share the work at home? Like cleaning, making dinner, take care of the kids and so on. I think it’s quite interesting and wondering if that’s someting you would considering making a video about. I live in Sweden and a stay home mum is almost a shameful thing. We are suposed to have a career and not focus on family otherwise you have failed. I think it’s quite sad and I wish things where different. Maby that’s someting you could talk about. Finally! Thank you for inspires me every day ❤️
i'm loving the way you edit these videos! i would invest in wood shelves just because of the steadiness, but hey, for the price and the look, your solution was great
Yes wood would be way more durable but when I was looking at cost, the wood would have added $200-300 to the total cost but yes 100% real would is the way to go if you can afford it!
Wood shelves with a natural stain/finish are so much better than all that plastic. Definitely not for the budget challenged tho, unless you scour the thrift stores.
You can actually find some really beautiful plywood very inexpensively. You could even get some really thin plywood that you just sit on top of the already existing shelves, and attach another apron piece, the same way you did with the foam, to make them look thicker, without the price tag of dimensional lumber.
A few things: 1. I loved this video! From the music to the camera work, to the narration. Thank you for working so hard! 2. Your pantry looks great. 3. I feel like you have invited me along this journey of self-growth over the last several years, and I am a better person for it. Thanks girl.
I’m glad I saw this video before running out to get more OXO containers! But I don’t want to go all glass either because I also have anxiety about my kids (or husband) dropping the glass on our tile kitchen floor.
Ok, so I just went to check the oxo containers that I do have and it does say 7 but underneath that it has a bpa free sign. Are we safe enough or still not safe?
What an amazing transformation. Looks so much more expensive than $20! You have such an eye for design. I wish I could hire you to makeover my house and help me decorate! Your aesthetic is goals in every way. I love your videos Elle 💕
I love the way you “cut” this together! And the energy! I live in a studio apartment so my pantry is from ikea but still watching from beginning to end!
Thank you so much for this video...I felt you were talking to me when you said " your external space is something that reflects your internal space...creating a beautifull pantry that is organised and functional does have a real impact on how to live you day to day life" I love it you motivated....thank you sister in humanity
My pantry is a reproduction pie safe lol, not a whole lot of space for a mom with 4 kids! I just use whatever glass jars, recycled, upcycled, mason, whatever haha!! It could use a going through right now as well
You are so real and hilarious! This is my first time to your channel and I love it! I heard a shout out to you in “Do it in a Dime”s channel and I can see why you two connected! ❤️
“I’m just a girl who doesn’t want to eat chemicals” I’m right there with you. I mean really is that so much to ask but we both know it apparently is because it’s so hard to find things to buy that aren’t harming you.
Wow this turned out beyond beautiful. Love the idea. Also it's wonderful to see you on this new journey. I have been following you for years and I agree that you should make content that is true to you and that makes you happy. You are fun and I gain so much value from. May the blessing keep coming to you and the family ❤️💜
Mind blown. I have to get rid of my oxo containers now. Ugh. 😭 Can’t believe that! Love the way your pantry turned out, and the shelves look like actual wood! 😍
I just redid my pantry....don’t like it. lol. Think I’m going to have to redo my redo, Elle style. I love the end result! You did a beautiful job. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for this. Kmart Australia has a knock off version of the oxo pop containers that I bought to put in my pantry. You made me research them. While they are considered a #7 for recycling, the material they are made from Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene doesn't leach any harmful chemicals. I tried to find out specifically what the oxo containers are made from, but can't find the specific name anywhere. Can I just say, you did a fantastic job! I'd be tempted to take the pantry door off! It looks so amazing.
I was defanatly the kid always organizing and rearranging my space. I think when you grow up in a dysfunctional family where things often feel out of control this gives you something to control. I find I am less obsessive now, but practically, with 3 kids organization and tidiness are still important. I just use canning jars to store stuff 😉
Thank you for the plastic info, I am blown away that the oxo containers aren’t food safe, I checked my Ikea plastics and they are No 2, I will def be checking for No 7 in the future
I ❤ your pantry! If, I had a bigger, more spacious pantry, that is what, I was wanting to do. Awesome! I wish I had yours & Katherine's eye(s) for decor. Whenever you opened the door, I saw earthly, serene. It screamed calmness. Beautiful finishing touches.💝🖤💜💙💚❤💛💗
I’m In love with your pantry! Cork gods/lids make it all so uniformed ! Thanks for sharing! I hope y’all have a wonderful blessed weekend darlings 🙏🏽♥️🙏🏽♥️🙏🏽♥️🙏🏽♥️
Love the idea of using foam board covered by contact paper. I have used contact paper on my kitchen shelves. Straight up Wooden shelves and I did wrap both sides because you could see the underside from across the Room plus I think it Sticks better. Anyway it came out beautiful and has been holding up for 4 years now
I watched this bbc show about families who are accustom to name brand and over shop and eat too much processed foods and someone comes in and takes away all of the lables and replaces some things with generic some with better quality and some the same and keeps the family guessing. I just loved the look everything had a plan white paper with black letters no advertising. I started removing lables of foods that I knew what they were like my coconut oild I realized how much business was on the lable that was one of the easiest to peel off some of the others like spices and acv I covered with white paper. as far as buy containers i like using mason jars they are one on the most affordable options and they are so common it is easy to replace and keep consistancy within. they don't work for everything but I recently switched to only the wide mouth and I am passing on my narrow mouth jars for simplification. that is another thing that has really helped having less varity were it doesn't really help. example I don't really need 10 kinds of noodles. having a lot less box mix foods also makes a pantry look so much nicer. I need to paper my shelves taking the doors off really helped cut down on the level of orange in my kitchen I litterally could feel a calming sensation wash over my body as I took off each cupboard door I have bought the shelf paper but its a little harder to put on actual shelves and the back and side parts of cupboards than something removable.
"These OXO containers have harmful chemicals.... let me sell them to an uninformed consumer on Facebook Marketplace!" In all seriousness, thanks for the warning - I've spent far too many hours these past few weeks searching for glass containers, and so many people use the OXO containers in their pantry make-overs, I was wondering if I made the wrong choice going with glass. Slowly trying to eliminate plastic from my kitchen.
Thanks so much for this video and education on OXO - last year my husband and i bought a bunch of them :( I love your idea of selling and replacing with glass&cork so I will do that too!
OMG... so glad I came across your video during a night of can’t sleep. Absolutely fun to watch!! Thanks for making the video entertaining as well as informative. ❤️🤗
So I definitely tried this and had to go and get more and redo it haha. On the hanging front part, I couldn’t get the lines straight. Lol so had to redo that 🤦🏼♀️🤷🏼♀️
Judging from the ‘before’, the fact that you even have empty containers in your pantry, not refilled and hided in the back, I am sure the make over won’t last long. It’s a process to maintain a house, to storage food. My advice is to have those once in a while week, just don’t go grocery shopping, sticking with the pantry you have. Eat up your food, and you will get to understand yourself and your eating habits.
Omg I have those expensive containers and they have a "7" at the bottom. I've been storing baking goods, pastas and the kids cereals!!!! Yikes I'm definitely getting rid of them!
This is awesome. Thank you for the plastic differences heads up! My problem is always Step 1. I have a good sized pantry, but nowhere to put everything I need to pull out of it in order to make it over! It's going to take me a full week, and my kitchen will be unusable in the meantime. 🤦♀️
I love your research!! So me!!! As consumers we shouldn’t have to be hardcore researchers - AMEN SISTER. But I’m glad we do it becuse there’s soo many plastic options
@@elle.lindquist nice BUT I think that they aren't that practical for my because the ball lid would roll away on my countertop when pouring something out of the jar.
I used that wood- look contact paper on my pantry shelves, and I just love it. We have wood shelves, but they were in really rough shape, and I didn't want to spend the time refinishing them. I've had the contact paper about six months now, and it still looks brand new. Now I just have to do the next step and make the contents look just as pretty. I love your ikea containers. Definitely something I'm going to look into. Thanks Elle!
The oxo containers are supposedly pba free. Is there another chemical we are supposed to look for? (The #7 category is a catch-all for all that don't fit in other categories recycling wise. )
Love your video. I’ve always been a pretty organized person. In fact my daughter just commented about how organized my coat closet is. My comment to her was......organizing is the first step.....putting things away where they belong to keep it organized is just as important as the organizing.
What do you do about extra that doesn’t fit in those containers? We buy lots in bulk (oatmeal for example) and what we buy would not fit in any “cute” canisters 😫
Maybe put the extra oatmeal in freezer bags and put them in the freezer or in a basket on the top shelf? Maybe even a tub with the latching handles & have it stored somewhere for later?
Looks amazing! Im glad you said that about the OXO containers because I was going back and forth on those and some others semi similar to your new ones. I am totally going to be a copy cat and do the same to my shelves :)
If you can't afford to change all your containers at once, do it a little at a time. Buy one per paycheck and eventually it'll be perfect it just took a little time but you didn't bust your budget so yay
That looks beautiful! I have painted wood shelves in my pantry. I may have to get some of that contact paper. It looks so warm and home-y. Great job. P.S. Isn't Katherine the best?!
I love that you did away with plastic, I love the ikea glass containers with lids attached you can use then for your panty or for leftovers in the fridge multi-purpose uses.
My pantry definitely needs to be organized! We're working on a video where my pantry shows briefly and I'm so embarrassed 😟 running to Dollar Tree now! 🏃♀️😂
At first I thought, another pantry makeover? Well I can’t believe how really different and pleasing your makeover turned out! I have been trying to use glass containers for a year now! Thank you for information about the plastics!
I love the remodeling of the pantry! Thanks for the great idea. I am thankful also to see a basket with junk food in it! Junk food is a standard item in our house. Thanks again especially for the squeegee tip
Here is do it on a dimes pantry video that shows a step by step on the shelve! th-cam.com/video/t7gE4eK-jMc/w-d-xo.html
Elle Lindquist Why did you sell the container if you felt like they were unsafe?
This looks so beautiful, and I can't believe how good that contact paper looks!!
Just a heads up though, your hemp seeds need to be stored in the fridge! They go rancid very quickly at room temperature!!
@@niecybaby1960 because some of us don't care about the exposure duh and also some of us use them to store non food items. Hello maybe ask someone in your circle before you make yourself look like a jerk.
Hi Elle I don't see the links to the items? am I just not looking in the right place?
@@gitana6791 The jars are from IKEA. Took me a while to find the bottle looking ones, they aren't jars or bottles, but look under carafe.
"champagne taste on a water budget / i'm just a girl who doesn't want to eat chemicals" I LOVE YOU! I am hooked Hahahaha
problem is we all eat and breathe chemicals, hell, we are all chemicals...
I literally had to pause your vid to make sure my expensive storage containers were okay. Whew... #5. I assumed they were but we can't assume anything. Thanks for the ideas!!
“Choose your own adventure!”😂🤣❣️
Super love the aesthetic “After”
Surrounded by beauty. This is how I want to live.
Also, when you said “Scandi” 😂 my kids say “scandy” when something is too “scandalous” so my daughter what like “what? A scandy-pantry?” Lol. Loving this channel! Thanks!!
Nice video, but... Did you feel that it was a responsible thing to do to sell the containers to others if you thought that they were too toxic for your own use?
I got so excited to do this in my home, then remembered I don’t have a pantry. Womp womp.
Oh shoot! You could do a floating shelf and style it in a similar way!
Hanging wardrobe, add shelves, boom! Pantry. Or just a simple bookcase. 😊
Me too i think a pretty pantry shelf unit in the corner would be nice 🙂
One of the best I have seen. You can still see what you have and not just bins to throw things in. I like it.
I have to admit I didn’t think I’d see anything new in your video because I’ve already seen so many pantry makeovers. But your ideas and your spontaneous joy are contagious. Thanks for the inspiration!
I am pantry junkie! My favorite room to reorganize…so satisfying!
I’m so glad your shared the info on the different types of plastic and the number the scale. Very good info to know. I guess I’ve been living under a rock because I’ve not heard this before so thank you for sharing. You don’t know, what you don’t know...🤔
I love the look of wood shelves. I’m not a fan of wire shelving and you did an amazing job of transforming them on small budget. 💛💛💛
Well this video convinced me to do this to my cheap wire shelves. I've never thought that my pantry could be something beautiful.
This video was so well done and you filmed it so well that I can follow along and do it as well
Thank you
Thanks Amanda!! Can’t wait to see what you create!

Place lazy Susans in the corners. They'll give you more space and help you reach things easier in the corners of your shelves.

Please do!

I’ve just started collecting those oxo containers 😖 may need to switch. Too bad because they are great otherwise. But those IKEA ones are beautiful!
I know. I’m shocked really. The ikea ones are super affordable too!
Good morning, good morning! Your new pantry is definitely warmer and richer than it was before. It has a good feel to it now.
Feels inviting doesn’t it?!
Thanks a lot for your video which is very informative. So different from the many videos about pantry organization. 👍

Glad you enjoyed it!
I love your research!! So me!!!

I know they’re so pretty! Maybe over time I’ll get one or two 😉
@@elle.lindquist nice BUT I think that they aren't that practical for my because the ball lid would roll away on my countertop when pouring something out of the jar.

We just moved into our brand new home and I have been contemplating this same DIY to cover the wire pantry shelves. It looks soooo good.
Wow, seriously what pantry Pinterest dreams are made of right there.
I love this video so much. I really want to do this with my pantry.
Absolutely Amazing!!!
It’s beautiful. I am going to do that to my ugly wire shelves. And I’m tired of stuff falling through the spaces between the wires!
What do you do about extra that doesn’t fit in those containers? We buy lots in bulk (oatmeal for example) and what we buy would not fit in any “cute” canisters 😫

Looks amazing! Im glad you said that about the OXO containers because I was going back and forth on those and some others semi similar to your new ones. I am totally going to be a copy cat and do the same to my shelves :)
Glad it was helpful!
If you can't afford to change all your containers at once, do it a little at a time. Buy one per paycheck and eventually it'll be perfect it just took a little time but you didn't bust your budget so yay
WOW!!, just Wow
Thanks Linda!
That looks beautiful! I have painted wood shelves in my pantry. I may have to get some of that contact paper. It looks so warm and home-y. Great job. P.S. Isn't Katherine the best?!
She’s literally one of the best humans ever
I love that you did away with plastic, I love the ikea glass containers with lids attached you can use then for your panty or for leftovers in the fridge multi-purpose uses.
Yes totally!
Wow! You really proved DIY’s can be functional AND beautiful!
so lovely. I love those jars from ikea
This idea makes me wish I had a pantry to redo. I have cabinet space as my pantry so no such luck, but I love the idea.
My pantry definitely needs to be organized! We're working on a video where my pantry shows briefly and I'm so embarrassed 😟 running to Dollar Tree now! 🏃♀️😂
You did a great job. The wood looks real! Can you please link everything? Contact paper, labels, etc
At first I thought, another pantry makeover? Well I can’t believe how really different and pleasing your makeover turned out! I have been trying to use glass containers for a year now! Thank you for information about the plastics!
Aw that’s Alice! That means a lot!
Looks beautiful. Inspired me girl! Thanks
Did I miss where Elle explained how she attached them to the wire shelves? I would love to do this!
I love what you did to your pantry! You'd never guess that wasn't wood but foam board!
Very impressive it looks great
I love the remodeling of the pantry! Thanks for the great idea. I am thankful also to see a basket with junk food in it! Junk food is a standard item in our house. Thanks again especially for the squeegee tip
I never knew those oxo containers were such a bad plastic....great to know for future reference! Thank you so much!
I've been de-cluttering our kitchen this past few weeks and i needed a pantry to get more storage spaces 😂
