My Pantry Re-Do....

I have seen a few of you out there in "blogland" that

have re-done your pantry's. So I took a good long look at

mine....which I have to say, I never really thought about

too much. I mean, it's just a place to put the food right?

Well, I have to admit, my pantry really needed a "makeover"

so today I thought I would....

just do it! I had this sign hanging above it already....

you know I love my signs!! But here is alittle peek at the before....

with the shelves and the food already pulled out.

Of course I had to wash out the whole space....

but you get the idea. I did alittle paint touch-up also.

But I want to possibly paint my doors a different color

so I didn't do those, yet!

Then I put in....contact paper....yes, I found some still around.

Usually it is so hard to find now. But I found this and liked it!

Here it is done....I totally LOVE it!!!
My hubby added some lighting on a couple of shelves
and I want to get some fancy containers for a few of the
items. But all in all, I think it turned out pretty nice. Now this
has been here forever and it is quite large for a built-in pantry.
The exposed pipes were there and I think it adds a touch of
nostalgia. I found some of that gripper shelf lining in a complimentary color and it looks quite nice.

Just alittle cozy corner of my home! I like the way it turned out,
maybe it will make cooking a bit more fun for me!
