Our small pantry organization makeover is complete and I’m excited to share the final reveal of our small pantry makeover! I hope you can get some pantry organization ideas from this makeover!!
Last week I shared how we removed our wire shelving and installed DIY pantry shelves with wood in our pantry closet. That project made a huge difference in the pantry makeover process! Let’s take a look now at the final pantry makeover reveal with everything all organized:

Wow what a difference right?! I’ll be honest, this pantry makeover took way more time than I thought it would, but it was totally worth it! I love being able to see where everything is now and it makes me happy when I open up the pantry door!
Small Pantry Makeover
Ok, so now I’m going to share how to organize a small pantry and the steps I used to get this point! I’m also including a video of the process too!
Before I get stared, I wanted to mention that we also have a second, larger pantry closet, with DIY corner closet shelves, that we gave a pantry makeover to as well! Check that out for more pantry organization ideas!
First, I removed everything from the pantry and put all of our pantry items on our kitchen table. Yikes it was a mess!

Then, I went ahead and removed our wire shelves, installed our new DIY wood pantry shelves, and gave our pantry closet a fresh coat of white paint (Alabaster by Sherwin Williams).
To start the small pantry organization process, I went through all of our pantry items and checked the expiration dates and threw out any expired items. I also created a donation pile for things I didn’t need anymore, like mismatched plastic bins. These two steps eliminated quite a lot of things!
Next, I put my most commonly used bulk pantry items in OXO pop up lid containers, like nuts and snacks. I’ve always loved using these containers since they are so easy to open and access. However, they are pricey so I used the ones I had already and bought another set of three 1.1qt containers and a bigger snack size container. Note, you can find these containers discounted at TJ Maxx and Home Goods, but I just didn’t have time to go searching so I ordered them online!
Nine Ideas To Organize A Small Pantry With Wire Shelving
For smaller bulk pantry items, I used 16oz wide mouth mason jars (similar here) and for larger pantry items that we don’t use as often, I used 32 oz mason jars. For the smaller jars, I replaced the canning lids with plastic screw top lids, an organization tip I picked up from Farmhouse on Boone! It makes opening them much easier! I also love how affordable mason jars are for storing food.
For our sugars, flour, and oats, I kept these items in our big glass jars from our previous open pantry makeover. They aren’t airtight but we use them often and I just love how they look!
Further, to add more organization and utilize the height of the different pantry shelves, I added these cute, little metal shelves in black. I put our smaller jars and items on them.

Then, I added a clear, tiered rack for our canned items. I love this little tiered shelf, it’s so simple but makes a huge difference in adding more storage space for canned goods that I can easily see and grab! I ended up ordering another one for our spice cabinet, which is a whole other organization problem lol!
The last organization items I bought were these medium plastic bins. They are perfect for storing all my random baking supplies, as well as any overflow pantry items that we have at different times that I don’t need a dedicated jar or container for since we don’t use it all the time.

Finally, to really keep this pantry organized and looking good, I had to add DIY pantry labels with vinyl! So, a few years ago, when I redid our open pantry shelving in our old apartment, I shared how to make pantry label stickers (with a printer) and decals with a Silhouette Cameo and vinyl, along with a free pantry labels printable.

For this pantry makeover, I wanted to make more pantry labels for other items, so I created white vinyl pantry labels with my new Cricut! See my tutorial on how to make labels with a Cricut, along with an updated free pantry labels printable, if you want to make them too!
Overall, including my new DIY pantry shelves, this pantry organization makeover cost just under $200. Which is pretty good for an entire pantry overhaul!
I love that most of the jars and containers are all clear so I can see everything I have and I just love my DIY pantry labels with vinyl too that I made with my Cricut! I can easily wash the containers without worrying about them getting ruined since the vinyl is waterproof (yet still easily removable)! Also, you can make these vinyl pantry labels with a Silhouette Cameo or as printed stickers!

While we can't help your current square footage, we do have theorganizing solutionsto make your space feel infinitely more comfortable. Scroll through for 20 genius ways to organize your small pantry, whether that be a spare cabinet, DIY setup, or tiny corner nook.
If you think you are square-footage challenged, chances are you just might not be looking high enough. Take organization to new heights when you add floor-to-ceiling shelves and cabinets. Keep every-day items within reach and store extra stock and lesser-used items up top. If needed, install a ladder for easy access.
If you're lacking built-in cabinets and shelf space, that doesn't mean you're doomed to store pantry items on your precious counter. Simply slide a bookcase into an empty corner of your kitchen—the famousIKEA Billy bookshelf with glass doorsis perfect for recreating this exact look—for a chic addition that will give you plenty of space for additional pantry storage, dishes, and your favorite cookbooks.
How To Organize A Small Pantry
If storage is your biggest concern, think of every blank space as an opportunity to create additional places to park your pantry items. We love how this kitchen utilizes the unused side of a kitchen cabinet tomaximize storagewith shelves.
When you have a small pantry, it's so important that everything has its place and it's all easy to find. Choose wire or mesh baskets you can see through and clear bins to make finding your favorite snacks a snap.
If you're customizing a small pantry, may we suggest incorporating the sliding shelf? It's not a make-it-or-break-it situation, but sliding your shelves out to easily access back-of-the-pantry items without sifting through a million other things first is the height of organization bliss.
Small Kitchen Pantry Ideas You've Got To See To Believe
Not all containers should be stored the same way—case in point, these different-sized drinks. While some work best standing, others store better laying down or in dispenser-style containers. Evaluate your needs and store accordingly.
If you have an empty wall space, you have yourself an opportunity to DIY an open pantry with some serious aesthetic potential. A trip to the hardware store for some wooden 2x4s can completely transform the look of your kitchen and provide tons of storage space for pantry staples and dishes.
If you've always longed for a pantry closet but are convinced you don't have the space for it, think again. This adorable nook carved out of an unused corner in the kitchen stores much more than you'd think. And if you're not the handy type, go ahead and position the shelves this way, nixing the door and walls.
Simple Pantry Organization Ideas For Small Spaces
Jars and canned foods have a way of getting lost behind one another, even in small pantries and cabinets. Place them all on display using pantry risers, and you'll never have to sift through all of them to find a single can again.
Pantries are often painted in a bright white and rarely boast style, but the truth is, the
