Cute Pantry Project

Hello there! Yesterday I tackled a fun little project: transferring bulk items from my pantry into glass jars with pretty labels. It’s a simple thing, but it made me smile so I thought I’d share it with you. Would you like to see?

The jars are from Ikea, the labels are from Martha Stewart crafts, and I used a set of alphabet stamps I have with gold ink to write the labels. Now, instead of a mess of half-full containers and easily-spilled bags I have a cute little display on my counter top. Sometimes it’s the simple things that make us happy, no? And, because some of you have asked…

This is what I am looking like! Sorry, I couldn’t resist including my mew (who is in for a rude shock when we have another baby in the house) in the picture. My due date is tomorrow, but I know this baby will come when he is ready, and that could be today – or next week or even the week after! I am feeling calm and patient (so far).
