HOW TO DECORATE YOUR PANTRY WITHOUT SPENDING MONEY


I am currently visiting a friend who is sick. So I have volunteered my cooking service. I am not a professional but having someone to cook everything from fresh beats coming home after work to heat up a frozen meal. My friend's place is very basic. No colours, no decorations. But to spruce up the pantry and dining table a little does not need that much effort. You have all you need already in your pantry and refridgerator. 

Here are some ideas:
  • Show off the colours. Bring out the colourful fruits and vegetables. Not everything needs to be kept away in the cabinet or refridgerator. The fresh colours not only pop but reminds us of the freshness we might otherwise be missing out on frozen meals. 
  • Display your vegetables in jars and glasses. Unless you are in a very hot country, leaving your leafy vegetables out in glasses of water on the tabletop do not help to keep them fresh. This works especially well if they have roots. Think spring onions, celery and some salad leaves.
  • Show off your jars of herbs and spices. The glorious colours of turmeric or the dark brown of cinnamon, the beautiful colours of white, black and red peppers...etc. All these add to our visual appetite.
