Labels are your best friend when organizing
A few weekends ago I completed my pantry organization project. If you read the post you'll see I was very satisfied with the results. My pantry was 300% better than it was before.
However I made a mistake. I forgot to label some of my canisters. Specifically the large canister where I store flour. You ask, how could that be a mistake. Well... I know the canister has flour but I don't know what type. Is it white flour, wheat flour, bread flour... I just don't know (Actually I know it's not white flour but I'm not sure if it's wheat or bread flour). Nor do I know how old it is. I also don't know what type of beans are in the other canisters although I bet my wife knows.
Many of the canister I used I kept the original label inside of the canister. This way I know exactly what is in it. I should have done this with the flour.
So, learn from my mistake. Be sure to either label your canisters or tear off the original label and store it inside the canister.
