Re Loved Pantry Cabinet

Hello Sweet Friends.

Fall is definitely in the air and those long summer days have gone.  Sweater weather is on our heels.  New pumpkins are beginning to appear.



I added a few new fall flowers to my sweet scarecrow.




Found this sweet cabinet on FB Marketplace and decided she could use some love and then become a nice storage addition to my kitchen.

I seriously needed the storage.   I was using a kitchen cabinet for a food pantry in this tiny kitchen.  Left me no space for extra dishes and tupperware etc.

The solution was to make this cute little cabinet into a new pantry.

It has lots of storage space for can goods and miscellaneous pantry items.  I had my table and chair set here but this was in more need.



This now will free up two kitchen cabinets for dishes.

Wishing all of you a wonderful weekend.  Chilly here in Illinois and not much sunshine.  Sorry for the darker pics but very cloudy and no sunshine all weekend makes for dull pics!

Hugs,
Kris

  5. What a difference white paint made to the cabinet, so pretty! It's the perfect size without taking up valuable real estate. I totally understand the need for extra food storage in a small kitchen, the same was the case with us. Have a wonderful Sunday! xo

  9. Terry's cabinet makeover is perfect for your kitchen! Storage is always at a premium in a smaller home. My husband can't understand why some seldom used items are tucked away BEHIND more frequently used pieces. I keep telling him that everything can't be in front.

  11. Your new fall decor is looking SO good Kris! That pantry cabinet was a truly great find - extra storage is always so necessary and welcome. We too, struggle with space in our kitchen. Hugs, Gilly

  15. Love the cabinet! Extra storage is always good in a small house. Our weather is just perfect right now. I wish it was like this a lot longer. I’m not looking forward to the cold.
    Still love your sweet scarecrow. I’d love to see a picture of her “frame”.
    Hugs, Cecilia

  16. Sometimes you have to lose pretty for practical, and, lucky you, you got both. Good idea and very cute cabinet in a perfect spot..Stay well..xxoJudy

  17. What a great idea for a pantry! I use two big kitchen cabinets for food storage (including my tons of spices, lol) and then two small cabinets just for my baking items! So I don't have much room for dishes either. Good thing we have a basement - I have more food storage space down there, as well as room for my big kitchen items such as the Crockpot, food processor, bread machine, cake plates, etc. Major downsizing if we ever move!

  19. Great addition, Kris, and perfect for your needs. I don't have nearly as much kitchen storage here that I have had in other houses. Takes some adjustment. Your solution is perfect.
    Have a great week! xo Diana

  20. Fantastic Kris, I like it.
    We finished our project yesterday. We put in a new door and two outdoor light fixtures. I had to re paint the garage door. Anyway.. it feels great to have our project complete. I will share photos soon on The River.
    And.. the boys do not know about the updates. So they will be so surprised to see a "new house" Ha!

  21. Hello you Sweet Friend,
    You must know that as soon as I saw this scarecrow I smiled. You know you don't have a naughty bone in your body...even your scarecrow is sweet just like you! You always amaze and inspire me, Kris. You truly are a sweetheart and we all get to enjoy you right here on your blog. Also love your darling cabinet!

  25. That is just perfect. It reminds me of the old jelly pantry my grandmother used to have. SO charming!! Hope you're enjoying the week! xo

  26. So cute, I love all your bright white decor, I learned from experience I can't do it with pets and being a lazy housekeeper, but I adore the serenity and clean lines.

  27. Love the size, that would be perfect in my bathroom. I can't believe there is not a single place built into my bathroom for storage. Thank heavens we're diy'ers! xoxox
