    dollar store fall wreath

    21 September 2016

    We have not shared a Under $10 Under 1 Hour project in a long time, so here’s one I whipped up this morning!

     

    dollar store pumpkin wreath

     

    I found these pumpkin stems at the Dollar Tree called Floral Garden Pumpkin Filler – I couldn’t find them online so you’ll probably have to search at your local store.

     

    dollar store pumpkin picks

     

    I used 8 stems and just cut them with a wire cutter and tucked them into an 18” grapevine wreath I already had on hand. You can see I also bought some burlap ribbon that I thought I might use but I actually liked it better without.

     

    fall dollar store wreath

     

    I hung it from a command hook above my cooktop but I was a little worried it might catch on fire, so I moved it above:

    dollar store fall wreath

     

    That’s it – so easy, inexpensive, and ready for autumn!

    Happy dollar store crafting!

    the pantry

    14 September 2016

    I completely cleaned out my pantry this week – it was so gross from the summer and felt good to de-junk and clean it out. This is the season in Utah when the stores have their case lot sales where they sell a lot of bulk pantry items so it’s a good time to clear out and take inventory. I had been thinking of ways to make my pantry cute – maybe some Pinterest worthy photos. What could I do: Buy a bunch of baskets? Make cute can covers?? Wrap the boxes in burlap? But that just made me tired and seemed a little ridiculous and so it’s not really cute, but it is functional for our family. It is about 7.5 ft wide X 10 ft long and that is a perfect size for our family of seven.

     

    pantry with shelves and counter

     

    I do think pantries look so much better without anything in them, one of my most popular posts is this one when I shared some favorite pantries for ideas. And here is my pantry without anything in it when we first moved in. So pretty and bare and clean!

     

    pantry

     

    But we eat, so it’s not bare and pretty. My very favorite thing in the pantry is this counter! It is just a basic white laminate and holds the microwave, blender, crock post, mixer, rice cooker and they all are plugged in to an outlet so they can be used in there. The upper shelves are great for paper products, coolers, big drink containers, canning supplies, Torani flavored syrups Winking smile etc.

     

    pantry shelves

     

    The floor is great for storing bulk items in buckets – do you know what gamma lids are?? I didn’t until a few years ago. They are lids for food grade buckets that you snap on top and then the lid can easily be twisted on and off for easy access and airtight storage. They are about $12 on Amazon but if you are visiting Utah, buy some here for about $8 each. They are perfect for storing bulk pet food, rice, oats, flour, beans, etc. and come in different colors.

     

    kitchen pantry

     

    The door is a pocket door – do you remember when I painted it yellow? But I forget that it’s painted because I think it’s been closed maybe 5 times since we’ve lived here, this is probably one of the most used rooms in the house. We left a spot for brooms and mops there by the door and hooks for aprons and a grocery bag holder.

     

    pantry ideas

     

    And that is our non-pretty pantry. Maybe it gave you some ideas if you are building or remodeling –  I shared a sketch of our floorplan here if you want to see how it comes off the kitchen. I’m telling you – mudrooms and pantries are my favorite features in a home. Let me know if you have questions!
