Help me design my walk-in pantry
Comments (19)Karenseb, I knew what I wanted on the pantry shelves and measured for storage I have a fairly good idea of what I want to store in there, though it's been so long since we had a working kitchen, I may be mis-remembering. I made a list awhile ago: spices -- we have, and will always have, a zillion. I'm thinking I'll hang these on the back of the door, or on the wall to the left as you enter. I do have a drawer across from the cooktop that could possibly work (and would be more convenient), but right now I have that filled with placemats, paper napkins, kitchen linens. I suppose I could move those into the pantry instead. chip bags / snacks canned goods pasta sauce jars peanut butter & jelly jars cereal boxes (not many) oils & vinegars spice packets nuts & dried fruit bags (in basket or in a container) bags of dried beans (in basket or in a container) condiments pasta & other grains cracker boxes coffee station bev fridge diet coke cases bottled water case large bag of rice paper towels napkins coffee, filters extra tin foil extra plastic bags extra trash bags small appliances including: crockpot, rice cooker, food processor, toaster, hand mixer mops & brooms apron -- hanging from hook on wall step ladder (could be tucked away next to the furnace-- there's space.) I don't bake very often so I figure I'll keep flour in the freezer....See MoreConverting dining room to walk-in pantry & butler's pantry
Comments (50)I am just now reading all these amazing comments. We were going to sell our 5 bedroom house and build a “smaller” 2B2B barndominium, but plans changed due to my dad getting sick and not wanting us to move away from me. So we have decided to renovate what we have and incorporate the things I wanted into this house but I have no clue where to start. This house had NO storage. We have extra rooms I want to make one a butlers pantry that connects to my kitchen and the other I want to make a master closet. Any ideas would be appreciated...See MoreWalk in Pantry - Shelf Design Help
Comments (11)I would take a tape measure and look at the condiments you purchase.. When it comes to shallow shelving I usually tell my customers to base it around soup cans... it seems to be a good size to cover most things. Also plan on those shallow shelves on the right to only be putting things in plastics containers just in case you bump against them walking in - that is why I had suggested hanging mops and brooms below and doing the shelves higher. Or maybe find something like this As far as the deeper shelves in the back, I was thinking of bulk storage. The closet is 6 1/2 feet deep - with 24" shelves there still is 4 1/2 feet to walk into it. Bundles of paper towels, bins of pet food, crock pots, lobster pot etc... but you can do whatever works for the items you need to store in there... it doesn't matter what we think. Take inventory and plan.. Best of luck!!...See MoreWalk-In Pantry / Butler Pantry combo?
Comments (12)IMO if you plan to use this as butlers pantry , I agree a good idea, then I would install a sink and use this space exactly like a real butlers pantry ,. Have you foor storage on one side with doors a simple set of sliding doors to make access easy. On the other side a nice set of base cabinets some glass cabinets above for all your dishes you use for entertaining and glassware , liquor and the sink is IMO a must . Set that side up as the service area for the DR and you have a perfect set up and please there is no reason to worry about moisture...See Moreitsourcasa
