Does that ~really~ need to go there?!? This under-the-stairs cabinet used to be where we stored a whole bunch of things, from every day items like diapers, to all of our Christmas decor! Needless to say, it got pretty messy and overwhelming! 😓😧Now, the only items allowed in this space are ones we actually need to access often, no seasonal stuff here please!🙅🏼‍♀️🎄Do you have a “catch-all” space like this?

Even just straightening things up can make a huge difference! As you can see, this pantry had some great things going on already! Dry goods in clear glass containers, and risers to maximize shelf space, but some of the “prime real estate” wasn’t being utilized as well as it could be! I keep swiping back and forth because it’s so satisfying! Anyone else love a good before and after pic?!😍🤩

We LOVE organized spices in pretty bottles! One of my favorite spaces in my home. If you are building or remodeling a pull out spice rack is a must! Mine sits right next to the oven for easy cooking!
