for the love of labels: kitchen/pantry

Well it's been a while since I've posted on my crazy, label-making ways, but I've actually had several requests, which shocked the socks off me!  I thought you would all make fun of me, but I'm just tickled that anyone was interested!  So, here we go!

Here are some more ways that I use labels in my kitchen and pantry. 

Utensils in drawers 

 Baggies, foil and plastic wraps.  I don't have very many drawers in my kitchen so I had to utilize the area under my sink.  I liked this shelving system for under the sink because you can work around those

awkward pipes.

 In the pantry, I love to use these canisters for things that I don't keep in my counter-top canisters like whole wheat flour, brown sugar, oats, self-rising flour, corn starch, corn meal and powdered sugar.  They come with about 4 or 5 nested inside each other and I think they are from Wal-Mart.

Small baskets in the pantry can hold so many things and be labeled as well...

hot chocolate, apple cidar and creamers. 

Larger baskets can be stacked on small shelves and labeled.  I like the look of woven baskets, but when food is involved (even if it's dry) I like to be able to wipe them out or throw them in the dishwasher if they get dirty or sticky.  The baskets that I have are from Wal-Mart and Target and come in a variety of sizes. 

I'm a fan! 

I keep tubs in the bottom of my pantry for things that we don't use that often. 

That's all for now!  Thanks for stopping by.  I promise to post pictures of Addi tomorrow!
