You open your kitchen cabinet. It's a mess. An endless abyss. You're looking for olive oil to sauté delicious garlic and onions for dinner. You know you have it. Where could it be? Cooking your favorite family meal can take longer than the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade without organization to find what you need. That's what happened each & every time one of our recent Baton Rouge clients, Jan, tried to cook a meal in her home. Searching For A Pantry Solution Jan and her family moved into their new home in 2017 despite not having a pantry. Knowing they needed one desperately, Jan wondered if a pantry could fit in their vast laundry room. Instead of trying the DIY route, Jan wanted professional help to get it done right. Jan saw an Inspired Closets sign on the lawn of a home in her neighborhood. She decided to visit their showroom to meet with our expert designer, Felicity. After Jan shared her vision of what they wanted in a pantry, Felicity got to work! She created a custom design accomplishing everything Jan wanted. So there was never a need to shop around for other companies. Let The Fun Begin: The Design & Construction Process Jan thought the process was terrific. Much easier than they thought it would be. The 3D rendering of the project allowed them to see their dream space before installation began. And, during the process, Jan realized she wanted to expand the project by redoing the laundry room as well! Jan said, "I was able to make a few tweaks until it was perfect." Felicity had a contractor she worked with closely. Together they handled it all, making it super easy for them with no mess or stress left behind. A True Eye-Opening Experience: Make Getting The Ingredients The Easiest Part "The functionality was the best part," says Jan. Finally, her family could see everything. Inspired Closets put everything in plain sight by creating: - clear acrylic snap drawers to see everything - sliding pull-out drawers for canned goods - a produce pull-out drawer - a basket for chips and snacks that the kids loved - a lazy Susan that holds vinegar, oils, and bottled items Felicity maximized every inch of space in the design. Jan and her family were amazed the room had a wide-open feel, even with all the items in the room. The area was functional and beautiful. Saving Time, Money, And Stress But it wasn’t just pretty to look at. Now that everything is more accessible in her pantry, making a grocery list is a cinch. Jan found herself saving money by not buying things she already owned but simply couldn’t see. "I love how the kids can find things so quickly. We never have to guess where stuff is, making daily life easier," Jan says. Another Happy Ending Jan’s family could not be more satisfied with their reimagined space, telling everyone they know not to be overwhelmed when considering a new project.
