Happy 2013 guys!! Now that the holidays are behind us, I am in full blown organization mode! In my efforts to clear up more precious kitchen drawer space, I came up with this baby…
It’s an organizer for my foil, wax paper, plastic baggies and more! I sort of LOVE it! This took me about 10 minutes to build and cost under $10…Woohoo!
So… Here we go!
If you don’t have scrap 1×4″ plywood, you can buy a 2’x2′ piece at the hardware store for under $5!
To hang this to the door, I used the same hardware I used on my pantry door spice rack…
These are hollow core door anchors. Many of you probably have a hollow core door as well. All you do is screw the anchor straight into the door first. I put one on each side. It looks like the photo below.
Now just use the other screw and go straight through the back of the organizer you just made and directly into the anchor. You will see the screw from the front of the organizer, but you will cover that up with your foil and baggies!
Your final step???
Load that baby up! My favorite part is that I can face my baggies forward and just pull them out one at a time without having to pull the box out! When you are a mommy, it’s the little things like this that make you smile 🙂 Agreed ladies??
Here are a few more pics!
I hope you love it as much as I do!!
For those of you that may have missed my other pantry posts, you can see them below!
I would love for you to share and pin this below! Thanks so much for stopping by, and let me know if you have any questions!

This is my very first diy project and definitely my first wood diy project. Excuse any wrong terminology. Cut all wood for both projects all by myself today! Any who, I am making this and the spice rack. After cutting all wood I did all pocket holes but I noticed you didn’t use pocket holes for foil rack like you did for spice rack. Is there a reason? Can I? If so, would I use pocket holes only on bottom shelf or to attach front pieces (21″ long pieces) as well?
I love this!!! You have great ideas!!! One question, where do you get the wire baskets to store paper plates? Did you use two?
The shelves on the door is the best idea ever. The ones you buy are so flimsy. I think I may be able to make this myself. Woohoo!! I’m a happy girl. Thanks!
Where did you get the plastic containers that you seem to use for just about everything in the pantry? And how much did they cost? Looks like a small fortune to me.
Finished it! Phew! You make it look so easy! We love it though. Thank you for the plans!! It really does save us tons of space in our small kitchen! My husband used a router to create grooves in the boards and then we inserted plexi-glass instead of dowels. Looks and works great!
