Kitchen Pantry Ideas

A kitchen pantry cabinet can really allow you to get a vintage feeling or just add a lot more storage in your room. The key here is almost always going to be organization. Custom cabinets can be quite expensive. You might want to turn this into a simple DIY project.

Pantry Cabinet for Kitchen Ideas

You might want to go with a custom kitchen pantry cabinet that your cabinet maker can really design. You need to make sure that either your shelves can be moved around or that they are tall enough for cereal boxes as well as pots and pans. This helps you cut down on your kitchen clutter quite a lot.

Another important consideration is going to be the overall design of the space. You could just treat it the way you would a bookshelf or a closet. All these small niches can be part of your interior design even if initially it just seems purely utilitarian. Try to find old milk jug holders to use for smaller storage spaces. You can also go with one coordinating color for all of your appliances. Just make sure that they are high end so that it still really is going to last for a long time. This will initially require a large investment but if you choose an unusual color palette such as yellow or pink it’s best to buy from the same collection such as KitchenAid so you can really get a coordinating set.

You might also want to paint the walls in your pantry. This can be a more daring color because it’s something that most people aren’t really going to see. This should really contrast against white or stainless steel shelves so you can easily bring in a lot of cheerful vintage colors like pink and mint green. You could also go with a daring black or gray just because so many of your pantry items are colorful and so much of the wall is really taken up with all of the shelf space.

While freestanding kitchen pantry cabinet furniture can initially provide a lot of storage it doesn’t always look the best. You can counteract this by going with more of a hutch design. It can just look like an old pie safe or vintage armoire. This will be one of your more expensive options. You want to skip wood tones, especially if you already have a lot of wood cabinetry in your space. Instead try painting out one of these pieces in a bright white or a pale robin’s egg blues so that it isn’t going to jut out in the room visually as much.
