8 Pantry Organization Essentials to Pick Up Before Fall Arrives

Spring is the time of year when everybody makes a big to-do about cleaning and organization, but there ought to be more focus on late summer. Think about it: You’ve been upending your bedroom packing for trips, and making a mess preparing for all your outdoor activities — not to mention what your kitchen’s been through as you’ve been grilling. Not only is there a summer’s worth of grit and mess to clean up from, but you’re on the verge of months of trying to create a cozy vibe while avoiding the cold weather. Fall is close; you’ll be glad you spent time cleaning up.

On that note, organizing your kitchen and pantry is essential when preparing for the cooler months. You’ll want to make sure all your spices are lined up for when it’s time to make your “famous” gumbo. To that end, here are some great organizational tools for helping you get your pantry situated — just send us an invite when that gumbo is ready.
