it’s been five months of settling into our new home. i lot of my focus this spring was on the garden, it’s been nice to turn my attention inward this month to work on organizing our pantry space!

simple + easy storage

using a variety of Ball® home canning products to store baked goods, dried goods and other kitchen essentials. i’ve been loving Ball® stack and store jars for our quick and easy access to pasta, orzo, rice so i can quickly see what could be on the menu for dinner. and as our cookie jar! all our s’more essentials are at the ready for summer bonfires with friends. granola essentials in wide mouth jars with Ball® wooden lids just make the pantry shelves pop. 

update your staples

not only do i love the Ball® wooden lids they look amazing, and are an easy update for jars already in your stash. i’ve got drawers ready with my canning essentials for late summer harvests. empty jars on the tippy top shelf, out of the way, ready to be filled with jams, relishes, and pickles. we're keeping our pantry beautiful, functional and stocked for ease in creating goodness in our country kitchen. when things are at your fingertips you are ready to create at any time.

prepare + preserve

living outside of town now, there’s a level of needing to know what you have, so you aren’t having to drive back and forth from town for simple ingredients. using Ball® jars for creating an organized and easily accessible pantry is already making our day to day simpler and cooking more enjoyable. i’m excited to explore the function of this space. it’s become a little escape for me to bake, meal plan and organize myself for the week ahead.
