TIPSY Tuesday - Jan 15th

I've been looking through Pinterest for ideas on home decoration and organization. WHEN we do build our own home, I can see lots of neat ideas that would totally make things so much easier in our home.

I really need a pantry! Look at how this one is organized!

How about this laundry room? I really like the look of that laundry tub!

Wow, both of those spaces are awesome! I need to organize the spice side of my pantry. I forget what I have & then I end up with double. Who really needs 2 bottles of cumin? I mean seriously!!

Looks great Carla. LOVE that laundry room!!!

Counter space in the laundry room! Nice! And the pantry... I could definitely add the rack shelving to the back of the door. TFS!

What is ONE thing you'd like to see in a pantry? How about a laundry room? In a pantry, I'd love a spot for those bigger serving dishes/punch bowl, etc --- along with all the nice shelving for cans and boxes, of course

In a laundry room, definitely a table/counter for folding clothes on.

In a pantry, I'd love to be able to see everything I have. My shelves are a little deep so things get lost I'd also love to have taller shelves for cereal boxes etc.

In a laundry room, a sink with a counter would be awesome! I'm tired of the clothes on the floor!

Great ideas, Crala! A pantry will be a must in my kitchen, if we every redo it. Our DD has a corner walk in pantry in her kitchen and it is awesome, there are shelves on two wallls and you can see and reach everything. A very efficient use of space.

My laundry room is in the basement and unfinished, it is not a happy space to work.

Great ideas, Carla. TFS

I like the idea of a corner in the kitchen for the pantry. I think a lot of the newer homes have that

In my pantry I'd like to put in shelving (much like this) for different sized casserole dishes, muffin pans, etc. so I don't have to stack them. I broke my pampered chef casserole dish because of stacking! And in the laundry room, definitely counter space over the washer and dryer.

That's a great idea Jessica! When we lived in AZ our kitchen had a tall, skinny cupboard for things like cookie sheets so they were vertical instead of horizontal. I loved it.

I have to say.. we have a pantry and it isn't too deep.. just right! DH put a ton of shelves in it when we moved in and everything goes nicely in there. And I even have empty cuboards!!! LOL!!

My laundry room is ok.. has a deep sink for all the dirty stuff and such. I fold my clothes as they come out of the fryer and put them on piles on top of the dryer or in a basket. Don't need a table in there.. just one more area for DS #1 to dump his stuff!!

At my house, Dh would be saying one more spot for me to put my stuff! LOL

I've never put my clothes in the "fryer" before. ROFLMBO!!!

Thanks for the laugh Helen!!

I wanted to say something about the "fryer" but left it alone!!!

I laughed at the "fryer" too! Nice hot, toasty clothes!

Typos can really be funny sometimes!
