I'm kind of embarrassed to admit this but we were using a stand up clothes armoire as a simple DIY pantry in our kitchen because we didn't have enough space to hold all our food stuffs. Hey, you do what you need to do. And I needed more space for my canned goods. My husband, Roy, who's not a carpenter, finally decided he was going to make us a pantry. It would be small and in the corner, but it would be

This pantry is part of our Outdated Kitchen Transformation. This is the corner its going in. We'd already removed the wall paper and painted it.

The framing begins! By the way Roy used Googles free SketchUp program to design the pantry ahead of time.

FYI: Our PLAN for this is a FREE DOWNLOAD on our site link provided on this page.

Shelves were cut.

Our son finished the m sanding of the sheet rock.

Shelves installed and outside painted.

  You can make shelves however you want. If you need paper products on the top shelf, plan for it. I'd suggest you go over to her site and look at the plans. If they don't work for you, check out Pinterest.

beautiful!! Since you probably won't lend out your husband, are you able to share your husband's google sketchup drawing? I'd like to use it as a template and just adjust dimensions for my corner. I'm not too familiar with using these programs, so a cheat start would really help!!! Thanks for sharing your project (we dont all have crafty husbands like yours!)

  He did a great job, period! Then, when the fact that he is not a carpenter is factored in, he especially did a great job!
