Kitchen Sink Dispensers

Wow, I really needed a break from that pantry for a bit. So here's a little project I did to keep the kitchen sink area looking neater and not have the usual clutter on top of the counter we usually tend to have. I bought the two dispensers at Target. I then labeled them myself with white vinyl using my Cricut label maker. The tray was also from Target, and I already had the sponge holder I had purchased on Amazon a while back.

Pantry

OK so here is a look at some of the snapware I used in the pantry to organize. I used three different sizes with the larger ones being for cereal. Then, the medium-sized ones I used for snacks like Cheez-It crackers, cookies, sugar, flour, arepa mix, and rice. The really small ones work great for small stuff like goldfish, pistachios, oyster crackers, candies, and small snacks you may want to keep fresh. As I mentioned before, it's still a work in progress. I've had these containers for a while I don't know if they carry them any longer, they are BPA free, but now there are so many options out there to choose from that are BPA free, airtight and different shapes, sizes, and styles all you have to do is find the ones that will fit your needs and fill them up with what you and your family eat. They are great for grains, beans and so much more. For those of you who want details as I do when I see an idea I like, I labeled these containers with chalkboard vinyl. I just bought a large roll of the chalkboard vinyl because I was going to label them with chalk. I used EK tools real estate sign punch to punch out as many as I needed. I ended up just using my label maker to label them. At the very bottom of the blog, you can find a link to the EK tool I used in case you have trouble finding it in your nearby craft store. I usually shop between Michaels, Hobby Lobby, and Jo-Ann's Fabrics but at times I've had issues looking for stuff or trying to remember which store I bought from. 😞

Baskets, baskets and more baskets.

So, here is a closer look at my baskets project. As you can see it's endless the organizing and decorating you can do. I started in my pantry.  I just moved into my new home and could not wait to start on this project. Although I'm not done and it's still in progress I wanted to share with all of you all the details so far so as you can see how I bought baskets of different sizes for different things. I separated them into categories as needed. I labeled one basket for all my oils, vinegars, and cooking wines. I made one just for snacks to make it easier for the kids to get their snacks. The larger basket was for bottled water, which I just have on the floor in my pantry. There are other baskets that are on my previous post which you can see I labeled breads, pastas, bake goods, seasoning packages and breakfast (I made two of those). As you can see, they are all different sizes and shapes to fit my family's needs. I made the labels myself, but you can put any labels or tags you like.

  Ok so if your anything like me and love baskets here is a great way to label and organize just about anything with baskets..
