Before & After of the Week
Service: Residential Organizing
Challenge:
This couple bought their home a few years ago with the builder shelves installed in the pantry. They have quite a large pantry, but the type of storage provided to them just was not quite enough to make efficient use of their space. They had cans stacked three or four deep which made it difficult to tell what they already had in the pantry. Also, there was no rhyme or reason as to why certain things were placed in a certain area.
Solution:
We sorted through all the food and small appliances/serving dishes in the pantry, purged what was old, expired, or never used, and discussed what food items they use the most frequently. We then took detailed measurements, took inventory of all the food that is typically in the pantry, and created a space plan to maximize the storage in their pantry. Also, we provided the clients with product suggestions for food storage.
Result:
The pantry is now a space that they are excited to use. Having a space that allows them to know exactly what they have and thus what they need to buy provides them a sense of peace. Both of our clients can now find exactly what they need, when they need it!
