Mom Activity - Pantry Makeover & Giveaway

This giveaway is now closed. Thank you to everyone who entered!

Awhile ago, I contacted Tanna from Complete Organizing Solutions about my pantry. I follow her blog and needed some pantry advice.


Here's my pantry. Although I knew where things were in there, it just looked so messy all of the time and to top it off I tend to leave the doors open so much that I don't even notice that they're wide open when I have company.


This is my pantry now! I used Tanna's suggestions and made it my own. Love it!

Tanna offers online Clutter Consultation and is generously giving away an online Clutter Buster to one of my readers!

Want to win?

    I love organization and baskets. Baskets make everything organized and fun and pretty. Great spring colour.

    I am a follower but I am not entering.

    Good luck to others.

    What area doesn't need it? My pantry or my sewing/school room would be the two biggest. I can keep adding to that list.

    I subscribe. I'd add a comment for linking, because I'm sure I have at some point, but I don't think it's been recently, though you have great ideas.

    Cool giveaway! I'm sure every room in my house needs a cluster buster, but maybe I should go with the one room we keep the door CLOSED at all times - the office. It needs cleaned out desperately!

    My kitchen island is the CLUTTER OF ALL CLUTTER. I don't mean the inside either. The top gathers everything. My pantry is pretty bad too...items stacked on top of each other...chaos, I tell you. (Unlike yours! Mine is also tiny.) My kitchen is crazy! derekannette at gmail dot com

    PS I love this giveaway, and have already checked out COS. Great blog!

    The most recent activity I made from your site was the alphabet on lima beans for games and sorting. I wrote all the letters in black except the vowels which I wrote in red. You have a ton of great activities!

    I need clutter help in a few areas of my house...but the worst area right now is probably my daughters' art corner. They are 5 and 2 years-old and they have accumulated tons of art supplies...and the supplies are starting to take over the whole playroom! It's driving me nuts! I would love to win this giveaway!

    We did the Alphabet Letter Matching game and my girls loved it. And...my husband is in the process of making the pretend play grocery store (such a great idea - we have those same shoe organizers just taking up space) - can't wait until it's finished!
