‘A massive thank you to everyone who gave me great advice on de-cluttering my butler’s pantry,’ the woman called Rebecca posted.

‘Here are some TLC and organising tips and now the space is much more functional and stylish.’

A butler’s pantry is basically a kitchen within a kitchen that allows preparation and for you to clean up after meals without actually dirtying your main kitchen.

Rebecca said she used lazy Susans from Kmart as a way to easily access highly used jars placed in front of each other.

‘I also put labels from Pretty Pantry Labels on my cooking supplies,’ the busy mum said.

Having labels on everything from flour to sugar, pasta and rice means Rebecca can quickly and easily see where each item in her home is.

The woman chose an on-trend pastel pink colour for her pantry makeover, spray painting many of her appliances that weren’t already pink

She also used $3.99 trays from IKEA (pictured_ for organising things like coffee pods at home

What are the budget items Rebecca swears by?

1. Kmart Lazy Susans

2. Pretty Pantry Labels labels

3. IKEA pink tubs

4. Kmart and Harris Scarfe jars

5. Kmart clear containers

The mum also swears by $3.99 pink tubs from IKEA for organising things like coffee and tea bags, as well as jars from Kmart and Harrie Scarfe.

To ensure that her home was uniform and all matching, the woman said that she spray painted both her Thermomix and her ALDI coffee machine pink.

‘I also bought clear containers from Kmart for bread, snacks and onion and potatoes,’ Rebecca said.

Rebecca said she bought jars from Kmart and Harris Scarfe to organise various different food items so she could always see them

Thousands online were impressed with the pantry transformation, writing that she has improved the space by ‘100 per cent’ (pictured after)

Thousands online were impressed with the pantry transformation, writing that she has improved the space by ‘100 per cent’.

‘Amazing transformation!’ one person wrote.

‘Looks absolutely beautiful. Great job, you must be very happy with the change,’ another added.

Some asked where she puts any of the leftover food that can’t be fit into jars, and Rebecca said she has soft containers from IKEA that she keeps in the cupboards below and fills with any remaining food.

Others praised her choice of pink for her appliances – saying it’s a ‘very on-trend’ shade to go for this year.

NewsColony Volunteers book hotel room for homeless man with SingapoRediscovers vouchers © The Independent Singapore Singapore — A group of volunteers from the Mummy Yummy Singapore welfare organisation donated their SingapoRediscovers Vouchers to book a hotel room for a homeless man. The man, who was identified as Jayden, did not have a place to live while waiting for the Housing Board (HDB) to allocate him a rental flat. In a Facebook post on Mummy Yummy Singapore’s page on Wednesday (Dec 16), the volunteers said: “We used our $100 Rediscover Singapore vouchers to redeem hotel stay for him and successfully booked 9 days worth of stay at 3 days per voucher.” They added that they were unable to book a longer stay because of higher hotel rates over Christmas and New Year. The volunteers hoped that they would be able to bridge Jayden’s stay until he got a flat. “Thanks our government for giving us these vouchers which in return we can put them to good use for people in need,” th...

Disabled people are still vulnerable, even as COVID-19 normalizes their ‘special’ needs NewsColony Perhaps it’s appropriate that public notices of the COVID-19 crisis began as an ableist cruelty. Health officials assured the nation that only the elderly and those with chronic health conditions would be seriously affected; most Americans (i.e., the normal people) would have only mild symptoms and be fine. x A friendly reminder: people who will be high-risk patients if we get coronavirus can hear you when you reassure everyone we’re the only ones who might die. Ã¢Â€Â” Alexandra Brodsky (@azbrodsky) February 29, 2020 Soon after the announcement of those assurances, the likelihood of high-risk people surviving was further limited by the people more likely to be fine.
