Snapware Containers = organizational happiness

This lovely photo was from Becky Higgins' blog.  Her pantry just looks so much nicer than mine. 

Recently one of my favorite bloggers, Becky Higgins, did a post on her pantry organization.  Becky is Little Miss Perfect when it comes to, well, everything!  And I only mean that in the kindest way.  I am a huge fan of Becky Higgins.  Not only is she one of the most talented scrapbookers ever, but she is an Organization Queen too.  Love that combination!

Anyway, Becky recently organized her pantry and you can read all about it here

The thing that got me oh so excited was that I have been using her new container of choice, Snapware Containers, for years in my pantry.  I love, love, love them!  Mostly because I like to buy things in bulk - like bagged cereal, giant bags of pretzels from Costco, and Goldfish crackers.  I also love to make homemade granola, which stays nice and fresh in Snapware, and it looks lovely too.  This is why I have such a love affair with Snapware.

When you pour your cereal (or whatever) the lid stays open.  It is genius, I'm telling you!

And it makes your pantry look so clean!  And organized!  Pure love.

I should mention that these little babies are NOT dishwasher safe.  That is the only drawback.  I feel like a pioneer when I have to scrub them out myself.  But I really think they are worth it!   And that is obviously saying a lot if I am willing to hand wash them. 

So try them out, if you are in a pantry revamping spring cleaning kind of mood!  They are a little pricey, so you may want to just try out a few to see if they work for you.  But they will last a good long time.  Especially if you don't accidentally leave one close to the stove and then turn it on.  I am sorry to say I know this from experience.  And I am also sorry to say that I am to cheap frugal to throw it away.  I still use the dang melted thing!   I just stick it in the back.  No one knows.  It is in the pantry, for hecks sake.   

You'll have to let me know if you love Snapware as much as I do! 

Because it is just the best thing to feel organized, because clean feels good!

  1. Where do you get them? I like that the lid stays up, and I guess I could hand wash. A clean pantry makes me feel good!
