Last year after canning (681 jars) I have an open pantry in the kitchen (1st picture) and a few shelves behind sliding doors in the laundry room (2nd picture)

Help, lol. Everybody elses pantry pics are so neat and tidy. What do you do if your extra pantry is supposed to also be your canning kitchen? It looked good drawn out on paper, but the reality is I have too much stuff out there. The wall shelves you can see are there permanently, its the only spot they fit. The clutter in the middle is extra tables, an old hoosier type cabinet and some wall cabinets waiting to be installed. Can't find any free time to get it done. I also have 2 or 3 large rolling stainless shelves the hospital was getting rid of. I cant get rid of those, they are too durable. Also out there is 4 canners! A shelf for tin canned goods, a kitchen sink and a stove. Its ALL IN A 20X14 BUILDING. It is supposed to be my perfect canning kitchen. Its not going to be long before I need to start canning and I'm not ready yet. Open to ideas from y'all!!!!

My stuff gets tucked here and there. Some is in the laundry room, some in the basement, and some is in the root cellar.
Some shelves over the washer and dryer. And dehydrator.
An old cupboard with good stuff in it.
Some dried stuff.
I *have!* to decorate my food.
Jar storage down in the basement. The bricks were made about two miles from here, a little more than a hundred years ago.
Root cellar door.
Root cellar. It's really huge, with an old brick floor and wooden shutters on the windows for vents.
Squash on an old table in the root cellar.
I love looking at everyone's pictures! It's really inspiring.

All of you with full pantries, what do friends say the first time they see it? I've been a gardening with a friend for 10 years and he only knew that I did some canning. When he stopped by a couple days ago, invited him to have a look at the pantry. "Oh my God!" "Oh my God!"

My grandson calls my pantry grandma's grocery store. It's such a blessing to be able to run to the basement for what I need rather than to a store. That was especially true the 18 months we did not have a store in town. It was also true during the Covin lockdown where I went six or eight weeks without shopping. Love shelf stable milk! Also, when the roads are bad and I won't drive or when I'm not feeling up to going out or when my grocery money goes to the pharmacy or when I just stand and look at it and thank God for his provision. My shelving is a mishmash of homemade, thrifted, repurposed and improvised. My late dh was manager at a TSC when it closed and there were lots of steel shelves put in the dumpster. He rescued a bunch, brought them home and made frames for them and I'm still using them 40 years later. Two other large square wooden units were being discarded at the grocery store and they gave them to him when he asked. I have no clue how he got them home let alone into the basement. Crumby entertainment (remember 1980's?) completely stripped, remodeled, reinforced and now full of canned foods. Mixture of totes, Christmas tins, bakery buckets, store bought food and home canned foods. Not pretty but I consider it a major blessing. BTW I have a full basement so my pantry is there.

My pantry is split between a large pantry closet in the kitchen and extra metal shelves currently in the laundry room. There just isn't anywhere else to put everything!

I have a 1400 square foot ranch house with a full basement and my pantry is in the basement spread here and there in all kinds of cobbled together shelving. Some of the shelving is seriously ugly, some very clever stuff we cobbled together from other's discards or remade from other items including an entertainment center my dad once gave us. That one took a whole lot of reenforcing to be strong enough to hold jars. It's not pretty, well actually it's pretty ugly, but it works and I'm very thankful to have it. The only pretty part would be the numerous Christmas popcorn tins I've collected to store food in!
