TRANSFORM YOUR PANTRY WITH THESE HANDY HINTS, TIPS AND MUST-HAVES

TAKE AN INVENTORY ‘First, remove everything from your pantry and do a purge,’ says Jacqueline McLeod, founder of Bancrofts Organisation Services (bancroftsorganisationservices.com). ‘Check expiry dates, and consider whether you’ll use items that are still in date. If not, why not donate them to a food bank.’

GIVE IT A GOOD CLEAN Once it is completely empty, dust and wipe over the shelves. If shelves are adjustable, make sure any new storage jars or canisters fit in comfortably. If not, adjust the height so they do.
