5 Strategies for Organizing Your Pantry 

1. Invest in clear containers and a labeler.

This storage solution is especially helpful for bulk-bin items, like rice, grains, and nuts. With neatly labeled clear containers, gone are the days of having four partially open bags of quinoa.
2. Assess your pantry on a weekly basis.

Keeping your pantry organized and in good shape doesn't have to be a huge, time-consuming task. Instead, make it part of your weekly meal-planning routine by taking a few minutes to do a quick inventory. Knowing what's in there is the best way to make sure you're cooking and eating what you already have, and avoid buying multiples of the same thing.
3. Use sheet pans to group like with like.

Heavy-duty and multipurpose, sheet pans and hotel pans make especially good organizers. Not only do they make grouping like ingredients together easy, but they're also a great way to contain any inadvertent spills or leaks.
4. Take 10 minutes every day to keep your pantry clean and tidy.

A few everyday tasks that take just a few minutes — like wiping down pantry shelves, keeping package labels facing outward and visible, grouping like items together, and tossing expired items — will leave you with an always-tidy pantry.
5. Make use of household items to give your pantry more storage space.

From crates and space-saving racks to pencil holders and magazine racks, household items can be a smart and inexpensive way to add even more storage to your pantry. If everything has a special place or holder, you'll be less likely to mess it all up when looking for that one can of beans you're sure you bought three weeks ago.

It’s an investment, not an expense

A custom PremierOne Stratus garage floor is an investment in the real value of your home.

• Garage enhancement with custom flooring and cabinetry increase a home’s selling potential.
• A maximized garage with space to park the cars protects that investment from damage and deterioration from intense sun, rain, dirt and grit on windy days, snow, sleet and hail in the wintertime, and rust and paint damage from salt on the roads in snow country.
• Capture under-used space and convert it into functional living space and possibly avoid a move by making your home seem bigger.

Protecting that investment is easy if you follow these easy steps:

• Wipe up any spills immediately
• Regularly sweep with a soft broom or dust mop to keep dirt and dust to a minimum
• Mop the garage floor every few months with a low PH (neutral) cleaner like Simple Green to keep the floor immaculate (no citrus, vinegar or soap-based cleaners)
• Protect the surface by using a dolly to move heavy items instead of dragging them across the floor
• Use mats or padding under such things as a motorcycle kick stand or tire jack
• Place rugs where spills or moisture are common, such as in front of a utility sink, washer and dryer or a workbench

If you want a high-end garage floor that will enhance your home’s functionality or reflect back the glory of your car, boat or Jet Ski, PremierOne Stratus can do the trick. The marbleized floor coating with its high-gloss, mirror finish will make everything in your garage appear highly impressive, or it can be the perfect foundation for any extended living space.

Happy Holidays!

Hidden inside finely-crafted, custom cabinets, they free up floor space for your home office. A Tailored Living Murphy Bed can turn any extra space in your home into an instant guest room, providing comfort and exceptional style. Adding custom wall beds is like adding a room, but at a fraction of the cost!

If having comfortable guest quarters for visiting family and friends is important to you but you just don’t have the room, find a Tailored Living designer help you find the optimum place for a custom Murphy Bed in your home. Custom wall beds are versatile in design and take up very little space when closed, approximately 16” deep. These wall beds come in many sizes from a smaller single size up to a king size. Murphy Beds are an easy way to accommodate overnight guests by folding them down from the wall and then folding them up to save space in your house. You’d be surprised at all the places you could fold away a bed: a home office, a den, a play room, sewing/craft room, family room, living room or even in a small bedroom to double sleeping space.

Tailored Living’s storage solutions can help you live more comfortably in every room in your home.

• A pantry is like a closet in that it holds more than just the obvious. You think of a closet, you think of clothes, but you also think of all the accessories—shoes, purses, jewelry and such. In a pantry, you have the obvious--food stuffs--but there are also so many other things that a pantry can hold: Small appliances, seasonal serving dishes and decorations, spices, wine and spirits, non-perishable paper products, cleaning supplies, mops and brooms, table linens and pots and pans.
  A well-organized pantry can hold an amazing amount of things, making it easier to get dinner on the table, pack school lunches, make out a grocery list and save money by buying in bulk. Pantry organizer systems with  custom-designed storage solutions to accommodate everything you need to store in your pantry will maximize the space and keep daily-use items close at hand, with seldom-use items out of the way but available when needed.
  

Tailored Living’s designers can help you design custom pantry storage that works for the way you live. Your pantry will have space for what is important to you and your family, whether it’s 50-pound bags of dog food or bins of fruit for homemade jams and jellies.

Garage Enhancement is a Growing Trend!

Hobbies and leisure-time activities are your reward for working hard. Hobbies provide an outlet for

creativity and a relaxing escape from the everyday, work-a-day world. In a busy family, hobbies can take many forms and end up commanding considerable space.

Finding dedicated hobby space in the home can be challenging, especially if the hobbies require both work and storage space. Why not look to the garage as a candidate for “hobby central?” With organization and planning you’ll be able to design the perfect hobby area for one or more pursuits.

Maximum Utility

PremierTrax garage floor tiles are so tough they’ve been the floor of choice in more than one airplane hangar. If the tiles are tough enough to handle parking an airplane, they can certainly withstand
anything your family can dish out! Whatever you do in the garage along with parking the car, a beautiful, durable floor can only enhance the experience with the fabulous look and feel of a PremierTrax interlocking tiles garage floor.
Homeowners today strive to get maximum utility from their homes, and that includes the garage. A recent survey disclosed that 27% of people use their garages for hobbies, 23% use the garage to work on cars, 19% do woodworking or carpentry and 13% use a portion of the garage for sports or exercise. Converting garage space into functional living space is not unusual, and a new garage floor is an important part of creating a user-friendly, clean and safe space for:

• Crafts or hobby center
• Home office
• Car maintenance area
• Workout room and weight training

• Man cave with tech toys and big screen TV
• Play area for the kids
• Bonus room or game room
• Laundry room with all the trimmings

Be Professional

If you work from home, you know the value of a functional, custom home office.  It’s difficult to
accomplish very much with just a laptop on the dining room table or a desk stuck in the corner of the bedroom. A built in home office has sufficient work space, ergonomic furniture, storage for all your business needs and, as its name implies, all the comforts of home!
Whether you conduct company business from your home office or just manage the household bills and chat online, your home office design should be inviting and efficient for whatever you do. A Tailored Living designer will ask all the right questions to create a custom home office design that will meet all your needs:

• Who will be using the home office?
• How many work stations will be needed?
• What kind of work will be done?
• What equipment must be accommodated?
• What are specific storage needs?
• Is the space used for anything else?

It could be a whole room, shared space as a guest room, or just a nook in the kitchen, but with thoughtful design your home office can accommodate storage, multiple users and all the equipment you need. Custom home office cabinets, shelving, drawers, bins and desktops will keep you organized, hide the mess, make you more efficient and be a beautiful addition to your home.

Turn Your Garage into a Work of Art

Garage enhancement is a growing trend, fueled by consumers looking for creative ways to add space 

to their home’s usable living areas, as well having an enviable garage for all the neighbors to see. How much more satisfying to hear “oohs and aahs” from passing neighbors when the garage door is up versus a muttered “tsk, tsk” at a cluttered, disorganized garage.

If you want a garage that will have the neighbors talking about you in a good way, start with a PremierOne Stratus garage floor coating that will give your garage the ultimate in high-end garage floor design. Created from a mix of two or more colors of marbleized epoxy floor coating swirled together to form an abstract pattern, the high-gloss artisan finish looks like molten metal, often referred to as a metallic finish. Since the unique pattern is created while the floor is being installed, it’s guaranteed that there will never be another floor exactly like it!

Borrowing its dusky colors from the sky, PremierOne Stratus comes in six prestigious colors: Belmont, Coruba, Coruba Portmore, Dunn’s River, Kingston, Portmore, and Stoney Hill. The molten metal effect evokes cloud-like, three-dimensional depths of color on the floor and rivals the opulence of any ritzy nightclub or trendy day spa. Your garage floor transforms into a true work of art.

How to Design the Perfect Home Office

Home office designs take many forms, from one shelf in the kitchen for a computer, to a full room of corporate boardroom grandeur. Those disparities in design can often spark online debate about what is or is not “officially” a home office:

• Where are the file cabinets?
• Without a computer or printer is it really an office?
• Is the desk large enough to actually accomplish any work?
• Where is all the work paraphernalia—paper, pens, supplies?
• No self-respecting home office has a day bed!

And on it goes. It is true–what is one man’s (or woman’s) home office may only be another man’s cubby. It’s also true that home office ideas you see online are just that…ideas. Ideas to help jump-start your creative juices since nothing you see online could just plop right into your home and work perfectly. Learn more.
