My pantry is officially completed along with the pantry section. In case you missed the pantry section by all means, you should check that out. It is a completely different space from before, I utilized every inch of the wall and even added more to my original plan. Much better than before! Now, I am happy to share the finished inside of the pantry.
I transformed this IKEA DOMBAS wardrobe into my pantry by adding in shelves instead of the rod. You can see the entire progress of that transformation here.
This is what the inside looked like before.
Pantry Organizing
Pantry organizing was so much fun and shopping for it was fantastic (probably not for the cashier). We filled up our Dollarama small cart with many glass containers ranging in different sizes so that our pantry could be organized nicely. The cashier had to wrap each and every one of them since they are glass.
On the second round of container shopping (yes there was a second round) at Dollarama the cashier gave us a box to put it in. Dollarama has the best-priced glass containers, I mean who wouldn’t love buying containers that only cost $2.00-1.50!
Baskets
One of my favourite spots in the pantry is the chips section. I found this wire basket in the As-Is section of IKEA for $4.00. It is perfect for my siblings to grab their chips and go, but it is also high up for my son to not reach it. I tried placing it at the bottom of the pantry and found my son sitting on the floor eating chips.
Glass Storage Containers
The glass storage containers look fantastic against the homemade paper. Having these storage containers gets rids of all those bags and boxes while giving us the luxury of seeing what we have. We won’t be able to forget what snacks we have anymore because of the different container heights and labels.
Lower down, we have baskets and containers to store everything from rice to flour to pasta. I am still searching for an affordable large container to hold our rice and sugar, but until then we will have to settle with what we have.
Other Side of the Pantry
On the other side of the pantry is where my things will be stored. I have more to add in and grocery shopping to do to fill this side up. The bottom is a little awkward for me to store some of my things so I think that I will add another shelf inside for more shelving.
I am in love with my new pantry. The organizing looks great, we can see everything and the amount of space compared to the old pantry is pretty amazing. We are all benefiting from this organized beauty.
Things look so beautifully put together love it!!!!!
Thank you so much Mari 🙂

Your cabinet pantry turned out great. Sometimes I wish I could put a large cabinet in my kitchen for extra storage too.
Thank you Erlene 🙂
I have beenn trying to figure out the best way to organize my deep pantry cupboard, and failing thus far. I love the pretty patterned background! Thank you for sharing on Merry Monday! Our new linkup went live, can't wait for you to stop by!
Thanks, Megan, I find extra-large, large, medium and small containers works fantastic for us. You can see everything from the back to the front and labels are a great asset too!

Wow, Shanice, it's almost getting too tidy in your house, with all these closet makeovers LOL. Just kidding.

I feel so guilty after reading your post. My pantry is so disorganized. Maybe one day I'll get motivated to organize it. I'd rather be writing:-) Thanks for sharing with us at Funtastic Friday.

There is a simple trick you can do to get some organizing done that doesn’t take much effort at all. Buy a storage shelf or decorative box or a under the bed storage bag. Have I been scavering in IKEA’s ‘As Is’ section again? Not recently, but I did during the time of when I was working on my pantry project. I found two of these ALGOT storage shelf there and this one only cost me $4.00! I used the other one as a chips storage pull out shelf in my pantry project and left this one just for my bedroom.
