Neatly stacking the crockery and carefully arranging glasses is a sure shot way to ensure that your china is prepared to catch the attention of any visitor.

13. Cubby-style Pantry

If you label your food items, you can easily organise your kitchen pantry and keep it that way. Pantry cabinets fit together to form cubby-style pantry layouts with room for both bulk and day-to-day items in one convenient location. External boxes and small bins are comfortable to take with you into the kitchen and help cut down on numerous trips back and forth.

An out-of-sight pantry is a perfect option to keep your kitchen elegant and clutter-free. With the door closed, the space feels almost like a panelled room. Despite being tucked away, the pantry maintains the kitchen design.

16. DIY Pantry Ideas

Any furniture can be repurposed into a DIY modular kitchen pantry unit. Adding rows of deep shelves, a glass pantry unit with doors offers ample storage for food as well as kitchen essentials.

17. Closed Pantry Ideas

A larder-style option is a good choice if you are inclined towards a closed pantry unit. This freestanding idea will give you oodles of pantry storage space. Vary the heights of the shelving so you can keep taller things together and vice versa, and leave a space at the bottom for other boxes and baskets.

20. Pantry Under Staircase

The underneath of a staircase is often believed to be “dead space,” making it a favourite space to create extra storage when working on organisation. Whether you go for basic open shelves or the more elaborate pull out pantry, building a pantry tucked beneath a stairway makes the most of this unused space.

21. Pantry Storage in Kitchen Island

Keeping day-to-day staples and other bulky crockery items in deep, easy-to-pull-out island drawers means you can bid adieu to lifting a dangerous pile of plates up into a cupboard.

Before you select or build a pantry counter or cabinet for your kitchen, make sure you consider the following things to ensure that it works for you:

• Space: Measure and assign space to meet your needs
• Style: Unify the pantry style, design and adjacent space with coordinated colours, finishes and materials.
• Features: Light it up with a ceiling fixture, floor —a pendant can be pretty—or rechargeable puck lights with motion sensors. Organise by storing smaller items on organisers like lazy Susans and tiered shelf inserts.
• Cost: You can purchase a kitchen pantry or DIY one as per your kitchen and your needs. Freestanding glass pantry unit variants can bepurchased online in the $150 to $500 range. Expect to pay at least $1,000 for even the most basic 15-inch by 80-inch custom-built pantry unit.
