SMALL PANTRY ORGANIZATION | Organize + Clean With Me 2020

[@faerychains8951]

Carissa I’ve been struggling with depression and my room got so messy. I watched a few of your videos and got motivated to do something about it! Thank you for inspiring on our bad days ❤️❤️

[@loshinishini7845]

Hi Faery don't worry all will be fine soon..god bless u❤️

[@joane5777]

Loved how the storage bins weren't matchy matchy!! Too many of the KZbinrs get carried away by expensive storage. Use what you have, get what you need and get it done!! Awesome job Carissa 💕

[@peaceofrefuge]

I really appreciate her showing us all the grossest parts of her house. Because if you live with people and work then it can be like this sometimes. This is real life and I love this. So motivating.

[@ashleybrady7103]

It's nice to know that I'm not the only one who's pantry gets like this once and awhile..

[@juliahayman2179]

Love that you included the stinky potatoes. That's real life! I've been loving your videos over the last few weeks since discovering your channel.

[@melissam33]

I agree! I have also found a moldy bread bag in my pantry more times than I'd like to admit.

[@tinalane9866]

I have the wood crates in the bottom of my pantry and I put wheels on the bottom to make it easy to pull out and it wouldn’t scratch my floor

[@CarissaNunez1]

Love that idea!

[@ellie2513]

That was smart

[@susanadyer9017]

Some might be shocked or grossed out by the potatoes. I think it makes you that much more relatable 😂

[@CarissaCleansItAll]

Haha I'm just happy I found them.

[@ericabaltayan5493]

Same... Who hasn't lost a bag of potatoes or onions 🤣

[@prolifemama]

No I legit had the exact same thing happen last summer! It was horrifying but dang if it didn't finally get rid of all those fruit flies 😬🤣

[@zaramichelle4613]

Wasn't grossed out at all especially when I found our onions in the pantry were attracting food flies. Just cleaned that out 2 weeks ago, I was stunned lol. It's so surprising what you find the source of the food flies' home base 😂

[@KikisStudyCorner]

All the pressure of growing up fell of me and my head screamed: I AM NOT THE ONLY OOOONE WOOP WOOP 🙌🏼

[@SummerWatersXD]

You’re a DIY home renovator, an amazing mom, an awesome videographer, a beautiful wife!?! How do you do it!

This is the most realistic and functional AND aesthetic pantry makeover I've ever seen. I literally plan to steal all of these ideas! We dont have a real pantry in our duplex so we are using a shelf system that blends best and this is the perfect inspo size to base it off of! Your videos are so helpful and honestly make me excited to make our home without unrealistic expectations or compromises.

[@lorrem2539]

BTW don’t put potatoes and onions together. The onions will make the potatoes go bad. Weird I know cuz they are together at the store.

[@HollyOak]

Great job on making over a real, working pantry. I also had the fruit fly problem and it took me 2 weeks to track them back to rotten potatoes as well! A tip on topping up containers, take out what you have, put new food in the container (eg, dried pasta), then put the older stuff back on top. It just means you don't end up with the same 2 year old food at the bottom.

[@BibimbapBattler]

The forgotten potatoes feels hella relatable

[@Xhanniebananie]

“Sketti” love it 😂 That final reveal made me so satisfied!! Keep the videos coming Carissa! Love them!

[@SimplyTheSharps]

Hahahahaha I was in the middle of organizing mine and got suuuuuper overwhelmed. So I sat down and turned this on. I have the same style pantry and a big family! It’s hard lol.

[@ashleygorum9657]

I love how real this is. i also love the fact that you actully showed the forgotten potatoes

[@yeneka713]

OMG potatoes rotting is one of the worst smells in the world! We had the exact same thing happen to us one time...couldn't figure out where the smell was coming from, until i found the few potatoes that had rolled behind the giant bin of dog food on the floor of the pantry. The bin was always full and very heavy, so we rarely moved it...LORD HAVE MERCY the stink! LOL Another time, a package of pork ribs had slipped out of a grocery bag and under a blanket in the trunk of my car for a few weeks. That was worse LOL

[@jenf4435]

Yesss! I can still smell it

[@CRG_]

Same so bad

[@qasdhfausjhaohjfioadada]

Early Squad!! Love the products you used! Especially the jars!

[@lorrem2539]

OMG I would kill to have a pantry! But I must say, my cupboards are fantastically organized!

[@Dana-ml7sy]

I use up the leftovers first, then use what is in the containers. Line fruit & vegetable containers with greaseproof paper in case of spoilage.

[@crystalramirezmoreno9190]

i love those containers from walmart! the large and small ones completely changed the functionality and aesthetic of our pantry! great video, thanks for sharing!

[@crissy9792]

With potatoes that have sprouts/shoots on them, dump them in soil either in a container or just in a spare bit of garden, you’ll have beautiful fresh grown pot at in no time, I’m always doing it. Love the pantry x

[@EngNoura-hv9hu]

I loved how it came out, it’s so comfortable for the eyes to see. Keep on making these types of videos they are so nice I love organizing and having some extra ideas from other people❤️ Love your channel

[@MommyAlee]

My only advice is when you put all the snacks in the containers make sure you write the expiration date so you know that they’re still good to eat :)

[@jariahguernsey]

Yes I love these videos! Even though my house doesn't even have a pantry 🤷‍♀️🤦‍♀️ i don't know what they were thinking back in 1975 when they built my house. 😆🤣🤣

[@motherof1132]

I need to mouse proof my pantry. I’m glad you’re so real with the fruit fly findings.

[@Reddhead33]

The potato incident has happened to me more than once. Those little suckers are the ultimate hide n seek champions.

[@MomIsBomb]

😂 yes same here

[@hollydatsopoulos7998]

Ugh! Rotten potatoes smell awful! We had some roll behind the coffee machine once. I kept telling my husband that the smell was coming from there. He didn't believe me, because he said he cleaned behind it. I finally took everything off the counter, found the potatoes, and cleaned behind his precious coffee pot! 🤣🤣 He was absolutely amazed that I had been right!

[@KatieKat667]

“Another potato incident” sooo relatable 🤣🤣🤣

[@Test11123]

I never go to Aldi, but I love those white bins you used! They seem so handy to pull out!

Ha! “Dressed for adventure..” Love your personality- subscribed immediately. 🤗 I have a brand new pantry, which is why I was looking for “normal people” pantry organization videos and came across your channel. I think I had seen some of your videos before, though.

[@CarissaCleansItAll]

Thanks for watching!! 😊

[@Karibird22]

The Home Edit ones are beautiful and all but I don't know anyone who has a pantry that big, not even the "nice" houses in my region do. Natalie Bennett also has a good "normal people" pantry organization video on her channel : kzbin.info/www/bejne/nGarZKl_bc9_b5Y

[@rosesantos9438]

@@Karibird22 Thank you!

[@HapaFamily]

Gosh, girl... #pantrygoals!! ♥️ I wish we had shelves like this! Ours are just these wire bins in a vertical frame that pull out, which are convenient at times, but also not at others. Your refresh looks fab! (Edited to add: “Mommy’s snacks...... 🤣)

Heeey Ashley! I LOOOVE your channel so much!!!!

[@vickyandersen8660]

That’s the type of snacks I like 😂

[@klindsey]

Great job. Love how honest you are about your processes.

[@kadiavb2379]

For things like the pancake mix etc. the best thing to do would be to cut out the instruction from the box it came in and then paste it on the container.

[@i.e.presents638]

kadi You can easily attach a plastic ziploc bag to the back or a heftier nametag or other type of harder plastic sleeve

[@thecomplexion7524]

That’s not aesthetic

[@tracygarrett3952]

This video is old, but I was wondering how those containers worked for you. I don't think any of them are airtight.

[@jfallis9082]

Thank you for being real with the rotten potato thing I hate when people try and hide the real deal mess. Thanks for capturing this now I feel like I can do this.

[@DeafeningLight]

I... I also found forgotten potatoes in our cupboard earlier today, and yeah, it was the fruit flies that alerted me to the situation! This made me feel better, because I felt really gross and like a bad person for it, but if someone who has their life together can forget potatoes too, then I’m good!

[@debbiealtman5373]

My pantry is very organized, That’s because I have everything in containers and on wire racks in laundry room a cut out closet kind of like next to washer/ dryer and along wall as you go in laundry room. Dry Beans, pasta and rice on first wire rack Then my pots and pans which I do not stack. Plus vita mix, Food processor Stuff like that.. Next to dryers the cut out closet has canned stuff. Canned beans ( not the green beans). Tomatoes, sauce And vegetables. In my small kitchen which is like a galley kitchen has a pantry with double doors but, Weird how it’s done. I keep condiments, baking stuff, a few not much snack stuff. Cereal. Not a huge space but works, Small cabinet next to stove Is the condiments for tuna salad and chicken salad sandwich. Olives and mushrooms Like I said it’s not huge by no means but works when organized. I buy stuff I can make meals with. Don’t eat many snack stuff. Have my deep freezer not huge and smaller up right freezer. I love junk food stuff like that but, the way it’s going price wise we’ll, I figure if I really want snacks I can make stuff. I stock up on food for meals. Snacks I can make because I do have baking items. For the holidays and for when ever. I basically love organizing my home. I’m always looking for ways to organize better.

[@amandacampbell3851]

Thank you for doing a pantry that is the same size of ours. A lot of people have big pantries and the organization is not as realistic for us. Our tiny kitchen only has 8 single door cabinets so I have to be creative in how we store everything.

[@lauratruthseekingWarrior]

I liked my pantry, until I saw this one, lol. Ours is a bit deeper than yours and I think we have an extra shelf way up top that I store paper goods, like paper plates, napkins we rarely use, plastic cutlery and plastic cups, we only use them for company. I’m thinking of selling all of it or giving it away. We rarely have company come over anymore, I could use the space for counter top appliances we don’t use every day. Thanks for the inspiration! I will start tomorrow maybe.

[@MsNaps-ri1sc]

For the Walmart containers, I would put the label on the lid so you can see what you have behind the others at a glance.

[@CarissaCleansItAll]

Smart!! I think I’ll add that in

[@yeung44]

I recently cleaned up the pantry and found the potatoes had the same situation as yours. It shocked me. Haha... HelloFresh isn’t that cheap unless you got the 80% off coupons. We have tried many times and it was good. I personally would recommend it cuz the food are fresh, clean with individual wrapped and it comes with full receipts. I kept couple of receipts cuz they are my favorites and easy cook in a limited time. We usually order the 2 person portion meals for 4 people and add some extra veggies on it. Order 4 person portion is too expensive. It is just my thoughts.

[@anniewilson6737]

What’s the name of the label maker, and do you know how much it costs? I’d love to get one (that embosses, like you said. Much more appealing) for our tiny kitchen cabinet storage since my family never knows where to put things back at.

Maybe label the tops of those snack jars so you can see what they are even when they’re towards the back!

[@valerieh8526]

My pantry gets a reorder monthly - it’s just a 24” cabinet style with 3 shelves and a pullout drawer. I don’t really use bins or anything; not enough room. To be honest, a quarter of our pantry goods usually sit on the counter. ☹️ I sort thru it monthly to remind myself what’s in there, and hopefully find room for the countertop items. 🤦🏽‍♀️
