I'm planning on adding 2-3 large shelving units to the pantry area - I really would like to expand over what we had in the house.<br /><br />Central - Next time you're in town, we shop! I'll take some before, during and after pics - especially of the pantry. It's a cruel joke on a hound like me. Maybe they got my sister's sense of humor...<br /><br />Anonymous - I never thought of doing that with the space. It's a brilliant idea. I'm going to take inventory of the lighter weight things and see if that'll work. I wonder if cereal could fit in there? Dominicks has a good sale on cereal this week.Chicagolandiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15475890741692290709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-492430305785970222.post-14194899502747874962009-05-14T12:56:00.000-05:002009-05-14T12:56:00.000-05:00I don't really know if this will work for your pan...I don't really know if this will work for your pantry, but I just moved and my kitchen is also low on cabinet space but had a little broom closet (I only have a broom and mop, what a waste of space!). I installed a hanging bar (like the kind in the closet) and then hung one of those "sweater keeper" closet organizers on the hanging bar (like these: http://www.organize.com/storage-sweater-storage.html?gclid=CNir27avvJoCFQ6jagodJG20bw) and am using that for storage of lighter things like paper plates, pasta, spices, etc. I haven't tested it yet with heavy things like cans. It fits perfectly in the the little closet and I was actually able to work it out so that I can still fit the broom and mop in front of the organizer. <br /><br />I hope this is either a solution for you or triggers a more creative idea that will work in your new kitchen. Also, in my bathroom I hung one of those shoe organizers on the back of the door and am using that for my shampoo stockpile. The bottles fit perfectly in the shoe slots.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-492430305785970222.post-27527565950560434902009-05-14T12:20:00.000-05:002009-05-14T12:20:00.000-05:00I am so glad the move is almost here for you. Almo...I am so glad the move is almost here for you. Almost here means almost over. I would love to be able to come up and spend a day shopping too! I also would like to see some pics of your new place, maybe some before and after of the pantry?!? And the oven/closet :)! This sounds like my house! I have no closets in my entire house!Just call me Yankeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01671355762196074626noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-492430305785970222.post-19915282156506412272009-05-14T12:11:00.000-05:002009-05-14T12:11:00.000-05:00Ugh, I am dreading the inevitable moving of my sto...Ugh, I am dreading the inevitable moving of my stockpile. I'm not going to be in this apartment forever and my pile of "stuff" just keeps growing and growing and growing. You'll definitely have to put in some extra shelves there. One sided shelves simply won't do. :p Good luck with the move! I hope everything goes smoothly and quickly.frugalsuzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14933012005577418448noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-492430305785970222.post-49415644223326048962009-05-14T11:57:00.000-05:002009-05-14T11:57:00.000-05:00I was hoping you'd say that.

Besides, this is the time of year I find most of my great deals.Chicagolandiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15475890741692290709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-492430305785970222.post-91612508475440525382009-05-14T11:14:00.000-05:002009-05-14T11:14:00.000-05:00The days just before a move are so hard...everythi...The days just before a move are so hard...everything needs to be packed, but there's some stuff that can't be packed because it's in use. Sigh. I hear you, and I am hoping for good weather and strong backs for your move!<br /><br />After you get settled in, we'll have to go shopping so you can replenish the market! :)Amanda Granthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12489151969453526970noreply@blogger.com
