• Cleaning cannot be skipped. Dust can be really putting-off.  Remove everything from the pantry, keep them on the kitchen table and clean your pantry.

• You can have sturdy wooden shelves, glass shelves or stainless racks.

• Check out some affordable storage options at stores like IKEA.  Every kitchen has different requirements.  Choose the ones that work for your pantry. You can use a mix of drawers, baskets, glass jars, and bins. 
• Place like items together, for instance, oils, sauces, cereals, spices, and pasta. Having a defined system of storage is logical and will keep your pantry organized for a long time.
