Pantry Storage - What is decanting? and why?
Decanting is the removal of something from its original packaging into another. I LOVE decanting, for many reasons. Not only is it visually appealing, it has so many benefits that aren’t just aesthetics.
HERE’s why I love it and you will to:
See everything you have available
Less wastage
Better stock rotation
Save on groceries and avoid double ups!
Place measuring cup inside flour (takes up less space in that pesky drawer).
But what about expiration dates I hear you ask?
My top solutions for expiry date management:
Paper masking tape behind the jar (3M brand) and write with a marker
Write it on the back of the container with a whiteboard marker
Cut the product labels and place inside
Use special ‘use by date’ labels (I can custom order and supply these for your pantry refresh project)
Keeping products in their original packaging is perfectly fine too!
