PANTRY IDEAS FOR SMALL KITCHENS

Pantry Ideas For Small Kitchens

1. Genius Pantry Cabinet Organization

Starting off this post with one of my favorite pantry cabinets I found on Pinterest!

They definitely maximized the cabinet space with this cabinet door spice rack, which is perfect for utilizing your cabinet door space.

Also, I love these oil dispensers. They are perfect for nicely displaying your oils, and are so aesthetic.

2. Utilizing vertical organization space

Another option for a fully maximized pantry cabinet organization system, but I love that they utilized vertical organization space with a 2-tier lazy Susan, a 3-tier spice rack, and more.

3. Organize with stackable baskets

As I keep saying here, the best way to organize a small pantry cabinet is by organizing vertically.

You can get these stackable wire baskets from the Container Store, or get a budget stackable baskets option on Amazon.

Also, how pretty are these oil dispensers?!

4. Add Extra Shelf Baskets

One of my favorite ways to get more storage space in cabinets is to add extra shelving organizers like these add-on storage baskets.

Also, I hadddd to link these cute oil dispensers you can customize on Etsy!

5. Organize with containers & jars

You can’t go wrong with organizing your pantry with as many useful containers and jars.

For example, organizing your cereal in a cereal container is much nicer and practical when actually eating cereal.

I also love these mesh metal baskets that are perfect for organizing fruits and onions/potatoes in your pantry.

6. Containers For EVERYTHING

Maximize your cabinet storage space with lots of containers!

I love these labeled storage containers from Amazon. They come in different sizes and are perfect for storing everything you need.

7. Pantry Closet Organization

If you have a small pantry closet like the one in the image above, you can make the most out of it’s storage space by getting storage bins, lazy Susan, and different containers that will maximize each shelf’s storage space.

8. LABEL EVERYTHING

Another option for a fully maximized pantry cabinet organization system, but I love the fact that they labeled EVERYTHING with labels stickers. It makes things so much easier, and knowing exactly what you have in each jar/dispenser/spice jar/etc.

9. Organized pantry cabinets

Here’s a great example of how you can utilize your kitchen cabinets as a pantry!

You can get clear storage bins, label everything so you can know what’s in each bin/basket.

10. Corner Cabinet Pantry

If you have a corner cabinet, you can make it a little pantry and organize it with these corner storage bins.

If you have tall shelving space, and have space for these 2 tier clear organizers, you can’t go wrong with them to organize extra smaller dry food and snacks, that also include dividers for you to easily organize everything.

5. Lazy Susan

I LOVE organizing with lazy Susans. Whether it is organizing cabinets, my fridge, anything.

They are so easy to use and organize with, and super easy to access everything.

Also, another major upgrade to your regular lazy Susan, is getting a divided lazy Susan that you can use to neatly organize different things.

Speaking of saving space, this SpiceStack adjustable spice rack is GENIUS.

With the size of 4 spice jars row, you can fit so many spice jars in the same space of those 4!

Each organizer comes with space for 24 spice jars, making it a perfect space-saver and the perfect space to store your spices. Plus, it comes with matching labels too!

If you have a pantry closet, and want to maximize storage space even more, you can’t go wrong with an over-door pantry organizer for extra space while utilizing your door space.

9. Can Organizer

Cans take up space and are not super easy to smartly organize, UNLESS, you have a space-saving can organizer that has space for all of your cans and is super easy to reach and use!

10. Reusable bags

Next up are reusable bags, which I love for storing dry food/leftovers/whatever you need!

They come in multiple colors, they are dishwasher safe, microwave ready, stove top safe, freezer friendly, oven safe – everything!

It’s not much of a pantry organizer, but definitely an essential.

11. Adhesive Organizer Bin

Last but not least, is this Adhesive Organizer Bin from the Container Store.

This is the perfect little storage bin you can stick and use on any cabinet door, or or on any cabinet wall for extra storage space, for the little things you don’t want to take space on the shelf for.
