My Dream Pantry...

 Doesn't everyone dream of a big pantry that is well organized and easy to find things? Almost like a mini grocery store? I want to make it happen. The house is set up strange with two bedrooms on opposite sides of the house. Since I like the rooms close together we are turning the bedroom directly behind the kitchen into a pantry. (With hopes to add another room to the other side of the house one day) We took the door out that you see and are turning it into a complete wall.

                         Currently....                                                                       Inspiration....

 The washer and dryer are in the kitchen... Can we say 80's?! This is not ok with me. The wall behind the washer and dryer leads to the bedroom which will be the pantry/laundry room. (Eventually we want to build a separate laundry room, but for now this is the way it will be).

I think this has been my husband's favorite project so far... He had a lot of fun tearing the wall down.

 Tada! It now opens to the pantry room. Next we need to re-route the plumbing and electrical and then we will put a door in (I am hoping my husband will let me use the door we took out from the back and use it as a pantry door) and build the wall up flush with the wall you see.

 My husband really loves the doors with the frosted glass that say pantry on them. He doesn't usually have to many opinions on decorating so I want to do that for him. But then I saw this....

WOW! Isn't that gorgeous?! http://www.thriftydecorchick.com/ This site has GREAT house decorating ideas... How can I take off the back door to my house that is super cute and not use it like this for my pantry door? I have some sweet talking to do to see if I can convince him to change his mind.
