Down to Decant

 

Hello everyone!

This Solution Saturday is about decanting, which is storing snacks, cereal, laundry detergent (or just about anything in your home) in clear containers which has benefits both functionality and aesthetically.

How you ask?

  1. Never run out of key items because you can see exactly what you have on hand. Have you ever picked up the cracker box only to find crumbs at the bottom?

  2. Eliminates the visual clutter of the packaging (because who wants to see the bright colors of packaging clashing together)

  3. Using similar size containers maximizes your space. Goodbye, mismatched cereal boxes.

  4. Keeps your items fresh with a firm seal. No more trying to keep the waxy paper secure and the cardboard box closed.

  5. Buy in bulk without storing in the bulk size. (Designate an area in your pantry or basement for overstock).

  6. Remove and recycle packaging at one time (batching tasks together - saves you time)

Here is some inspiration:

Decant your kitchen items, first example
Decant your laundry supplies
Decant your kitchen items, second example

And remember to label flour, sugar, baking soda...items that could be mistaken for something else. (Maybe leave your Cheez-it stash…)

Happy Saturday and happy decanting this weekend!

Best,

Laura
