The Lazy Susan: A Pantry's Best Friend

One of our favorite organizing tricks is to use Lazy Susan’s in the pantry!
Instead of moving all of the oil, vinegar, dressing bottles all around to reach the one in the back, simply put a Lazy Susan in your cabinet and spin to find your choice!

Here are a few tips when buying a Lazy Susan.

  1. Measure your cabinet opening to make sure it fits. (This is really important in corner cabinets that are deep but have narrow openings.)

  2. Make sure your Lazy Susan is just big enough to hold what you need but can also turn as well. Sometimes we opt to keep the large bottle of olive oil off to the side so that all of the small bottles will fit.

  3. Make sure your Lazy Susan has an edge so that the bottles don’t fall off. A small edge is usually sufficient.

  4. Label so you can easily find the oils vs the vinegars, etc.

Lazy Susans can also be used in other areas such as under the kitchen sink to store cleaning supplies.

Here are some of the spaces we have used them in!

Here are links to a few different kinds of Lazy Susans we like!
