My pantry was one scary hot mess.....just couldn't take it anymore.....so yesterday around noon I riped into it. {Picture taken at 11:29am}
{Picture taken at 12:54pm}
Took everything out...washed down all the shelves....I can't believe all the stuff I got out of there....filled up the island, table, counter-tops and there was a stack of boxes I set in the laundry room...Holy Cow, why did I let it get like this? {I'm a little embarrassed to say that yes; 6 big bags of old, "why did I keep it" stuff will be in the dumpster today.}
So, now I have it cleaned out....Oh, I have a little secret to share about cleaning the shelf stains- windex combined with Bar Keepers Friend...will take out just about anything.
What can you do with a pantry, one roll of wallpaper, and a quart of paint.......

The shadows in the pantry make the wallpaper look light in some places and darker in others.....But in real life they look the same =)
Finished at 7:10pm
Shopped my home for a few items....but pretty much everything that was in there before came back {well,except for the 6 big bags of crazy stuff. =)
Before-
After-
The Pantry is clean once again...hope it stays that way for awhile. The Pantry is... "what it is"..... In my dream world, I would love for all the containers to match, cute handwritten labels would be nice and a cute little framed blackboard would be sweet. All in all I'm pretty okay with how it turned out.
Next project...clean out the spice cabinets...scary! {just ask Sam....wait, maybe not. =)
