Kmart fan wows Instagram followers with sleek and stylish budget-friendly pantry makeover
By Rachael Gavin|
The "Kmart Hack Queen" has proved a stunning pantry makeover is possible on a budget after revamping her own pantry with bargain pieces from Kmart.
Sam showed off her latest pantry makeover in a reel on Instagram.
The revamp included an update to her already-sleek looking spice jar rack door, which got a facelift with some adhesive dot vinyl added to the entire door. This simple tweak costs just $1.50 for the roll.
Sam's spice jar door was already gorgeous though, with wire racks containing labelled spice jars and hooks for metal measuring spoons and cups.
After updating the door, Sam tackled the main part of the cupboard by decluttering and removing out-of-date baking supplies, and purchased new containers for a coordinated look.
"I went for plastic this time and not the glass. These are a great seal with a clip lid," Sam said in her video.
It looks like Sam has decided to use the flip lock lid containers from Kmart. These can be purchased individually or in a 10 piece set for $35.
The second shelf from the top had oils and salts organised neatly on easy to access turntables.
A lower shelf had a glass cake stand in the corner, styled beautifully with muffins stored inside.
Next to this Sam placed several clear pantry storer on wheels containers, which contained dried food, snacks and crackers and were all labelled. These containers cost $12 each and have a flap lid at the front for easy access.
"They're so handy with the little wheels on them and you can see what's in them as well," she said.
On lower shelves Sam added medium and large roller storage baskets with handles, which cost $7.50 and $9 each, for extra storage and a stylish white metal bread bin for $16.
"Just feels overall a lot [roomier as it's a] bit smaller in food storage because there's only two of us," she added.
Sam posted a complete list of the items she purchased to organise and style her pantry in another Instagram post.
Most of the products were purchased from Kmart, including the adhesive vinyl, container labels and wire spice racks, but a few were from other retailers.
The spice jars were found at The Reject Shop for $2.25 each, as were the small bowls for $3 each and plant pots for $4 each.
And the beautiful labels used on the spice jars were purchased from Madame Labelle.
Sam's followers were blown away by the simple yet effective makeover, and filled the comments section with lots of compliments.
"This looks incredible, well and truly inspired!" one posted.
"Oh my goodness! Heaven. Please come and do mine!" a woman said.
"Wow this is gorgeous #pantrygoals," another wrote.
Kmart Hack Queen's pantry makeover is wonderful inspiration for anyone looking to makeover their pantry, whether it's an entire revamp or just a few tweaks for a fresh look.
It's also proof you don't have to spend much to get a functional set-up that also looks good.
