Here's a before pic:
And here's what the pantry looks like now. (Try to look past the yellow doors and tired paint that will be revived this summer.) Surprisingly, everything in the jars was already in my pantry. It's amazing how nice food looks when you take away the packaging.
With a little help from Poof, my ever-growing collection of pretty turquoise glass has a new home in the pantry as well.

That is WAY cool! I might have to steal the vintage-jar-with-chalkboard-contact-paper idea!
ReplyDeleteNever knew there was chalkboard contact paper. Genius idea to label your cool jars with it. You can probably find what you need easier and know when you need to buy more at a glance. I love how your pantry looks! No surprise there.
ReplyDeleteKelly,
ReplyDeleteI didn't know you liked these old jars. I have dozens of them in the garage. They belonged to my grandmother (David's great-grandmother), who actually used them for canning lots of yummy things. If you need more, I might be able to deliver some with the Wedgewood.
Ok, I missed a few posts and rather than post a reply for each, I'll gather them here. 1st, OF COURSE that tiny tub was a sweet find! I've been looking for something similar- I'm so jealous!!! And your pantry looks great. I love labels and organization!

ReplyDelete@ Susan - I have plenty a the standard size jars but if you have any of the old half-gallon jars I would LOVE to have them.
