PANTRY ORGANIZATION AND A $100 GIVEAWAY FROM STAPLES

As a married couple, we have only lived in two houses.  Our first house did not have a pantry. 
I was determined to fit a pantry into the redesign of our current home. 
I gave you a peek inside the pantry here.

I had a grand scheme to makeover our pantry ever since we moved in.  
And then I came across this image.  
I quickly realized that a makeover was not needed after all -
Just some pretty baskets and a little organization.

Better Homes and Gardens

Staples contacted me a few months ago 
to see if I would be interested in partnering with them on an office makeover.  
Since our office was not in line for a makeover, I decided to finally tackle the pantry.

Clearly, my photos aren't quite magazine quality, 
but I accomplished the look I was going for and finally got things organized in there. 






I ordered these Anchor Hocking one gallon glass jars to store snacks, rice, pasta and coffee.


I also ordered ten of these plastic woven wicker baskets.  
They are great for food storage.   If there is a spill, you can just rinse them out. 
I also ordered several different types of Martha Stewart chalkboard labels to add to the jars. 


Now for the fun part.  In addition to supplying the items used to organize my pantry, 
Staples has graciously offered a $100 Staples Gift Card to one of my readers. 
(limited to US residents only)

To enter the giveaway, simply leave a comment letting me know
which room in your home you would like to get organized.

The giveaway is open to all US residents until 11:59 p.m. on Tuesday, September 30, 2014.
