Go vertical for storage

I used to keep all the healthy snacks in this pink metal basket. There was nothing really wrong with it as it looked cute and the snacks were easily accessible but it did take up more space than I liked.

So when I got my jars from Consol, I decided to put one of them to use since they take up less horizontal space on a shelf.

The jars come with a stick of chalk but some of you might remember how I’m not really a chalk person. However, in a moment of madness sometime last year, I threw some chalk markers into my Amazon shopping cart and those are working really well.

Back to my healthy snacks jar…

I love it – looks so pretty and yet you can see exactly how much you’ve got.

If you’re battling with storage anywhere really, look at going vertical – either taller storage containers, or use your walls.

Where in your home do you use vertical storage?

PS By the way, I define healthy snacks as prunes, raisins, fruit flakes, fruit rolls (I think this is what you call fruit leather in the US?), fruit sticks, etc.
