7 Mind-Blowing Ikea Pantry Hacks

Pantries can be tricky spaces to decorate and use efficiently. Some of us are blessed with having a full-size pantry just off the kitchen, while others have to get creative, using a corner of the kitchen as a makeshift pantry. But whatever your pantry situation, creating a space that's organized, useful, and (of course) pretty, takes a bit of ingenuity and thinking outside the box. Try some of these great Ikea hacks for upgrading your pantry!

If you don't have very much storage in your pantry, these built-ins using Billy bookshelves are the perfect way to elevate your pantry. They're not too deep, so they don't extend into too much of your space, but they make amazing use of an empty wall.
