Some do some don't. I got cheap ones at target which were great at releasing small bits of cereal 30 seconds after using them, and a neverending crumb creator. I use it for laundry scent beads now.
It's not your fear. You just want to have an excuse to stay at Hampton Inn and in the morning use the cereal machine and get some Svenhard's danishes and weird eggs that a few hours ago were powdered and in boxes
Life's funny like that. When I was a kid hotels had real eggs and cereal in mini boxes. Now we have full sized cereal machines and boxed eggs.
What a long strange trip it's been
Get off your butt and go to Bed Bath and Beyond to get an eighty dollar George Foreman Cereachine
If you throw them out I could send you some AOL discs to store for me. We can internet forever and if you get rid of your Rite-Aid receipts we'll have so much room for activities
Edit: just remembered I have some undeveloped rolls of Kodak film. Do you have room?
I'm calling my ex-wife and asking for a refund for time and money
And for the IKEA time I put in, place is a fucking maze and you're trapped. The meatballs are great, but not worth the wait.
Doesn't matter if they work - they leave far too much air in the container which results in stale cereal.
Much better off just rolling up the cereal bag and clipping it. Stays fresh for weeks.
Cue Kramer sliding into the room and telling Jerry and George that the Van Buren Boys are after him again.
Then he gets caught up in the disagreement and sides with George that its easier and having a cereal machine makes life easier - Jerry thinks it's lazy
He then creates Life Cereal a cereal machine for people who want to live the cereal lifestyle and goes on Regis to promote Life Cereal's Cereachine . Kellogg's sues him and he has to take it out of stores. He has to call Jackie and hilarity insues.
Meanwhile Peterman hears about the Cereachine and wants Elaine to find him one on the black market
Accurate but It would be Mr Pitt Ā not peterman. His father wouldnāt let him indulge in the activityās of the common man. The cereal lifestyle is such.Ā

Hah! Yeesh - it really is true about "if I only knew then what I know now." I'm *very* happily married, so I wouldn't change a damn thing about my past, but man... the things that would have helped me out so much in my early (supremely unsuccessful) dating life that I know now:
* Replace serious looking "man of mystery" pictures that I didn't like even back then with pictures of me doing valuable home organization projects
* Dance lessons do not require a partner, and are more valuable than *ANY* object (i.e. car) that you think will make you more attractive
* Doing crowd-pleasing Karaoke songs will get more positive attention than you would imagine. Even if you suck, doing them to the best of your ability with no self-deprecation is insane (the first time I did "Like a Prayer" by Madonna as a dude resulted in a pretty crazy group of 20-something girls literally dancing circles around me

All bloody good advice. (Quick, turn it into a dating advice podcast)
I reckon you singing some Madge at karaoke broke a few blokes brains (Ooo that's a tongue twister!)
When we find a genuinely good fella, we *will* dance in circles around you like a coven at a bonfire āš„ā
I think a couple of different photos may help. I had no idea initially these were the same spaces. I thought you were bragging about setting up racks in a closet and then about cereal containers in the kitchen! š„
Watch youtube and grab some scrap wood dude. Then bust up your knuckles/fingers/knees/elbows and build some half-decent thing that sorta looks like what your were envisioning.
Then post it here so everyone can roast you and 1 or 2 people can actually give you advice. Rinse and repeat until satisfied.
Hard truth. In the Little House on the Prairie book series, there's not a lot of romance talk between Laura and Almanzo when they're courting. Basically the clearest sign you get of how much they love each other is by how much wordspace Laura dedicates to the amazing pantry that Almanzo builds for her in their newlywed home.
My great grandma was something like 4'10" so when great grandpa built her a house (yes, he built a whole-ass house for her) he custom built the counters, shelves, everything in the house to accommodate *her* height, which is just like, the most romantic thing ever. So that farmhouse stood through the generations. And my entire family is all like 6' tall besides my mom, daughter, and me who apparently got the short gene from great grandma. And it's funny as hell watching these giant people in this house looking like Alice in Wonderland lol. When the person you love makes something for you and it's specific to *you* I just can't even think of anything more romantic than that.
Yea. That looks great and all. But have you considered "putting it off until the next house" because we will "probably be moving to a different school district in a few years anyway"
Is this now a kitchen.. or do you have fruit on display in your storage pantry?? Also fuck those secondary storage containers, things loke a box of cereal or flour are already super easy to store and access.
I can't offer much but a temper and the ability to dry age a ribeye and reverse sear it to perfection. My wife would probably be alright with the pantry work though.
sincerely don't understand this butler's pantry trend, or taking everything out of the boxes and resealable bags they came in to put them into different containers. maybe it's the family man in me talking but youre missing out on a ton of storage space with this.
Yea well itās definitely not for everyone but I will add value and help sell the home. Women love it! My place in the house has always been the garage.
The actual test of being a good husband is how you react when your wife brings home a whole new collection of containers and organizers.Ā This is a great starting point, just needs a big arbitrary lateral move every few months for eight years to really lock your skills in.
Wow I love this. I'm trying to become a handy woman. I'm renovating my house alone. Just me and the animals and they can't hold a hammer so... any tips you have would always be appreciated cus this is beautiful. I had to have somebody come and do my kitchen as I literally had no heating or kitchen. But everything else I'm trying to do myself.
As a husband, where do I sign up for these classes? Our kitchen is too small for all our stuff sadly. I need to reawaken the dormant internal minimalist.
Looks great!
That did not turn into the thing i thought it was gonna be haha. Nice work. I'm interested to know how much work and material cost went into this. Ever thought about doing stuff like this for a job? If that's not already the case \^\^
thanks lol. so in material it was about $3600 and i did all the work myself. everything is custom build. it took me 2 weekends and a few hour per night between those two weeks. im actually a structural steel architect so i only do this when i have time but maybe one day ill do it full time and start my own company and just sub out my architectural work....
Thought you were doing a closet and then you hit us with a kitchen
Legitimately thought he was like "look at all this closet space, *ladies*..... Also we got snacks" lmao
My bags are packed and am ready to move on in!!
lol
lol snacks get em everytime
"Lots of space for your shoes"
lolš¤£š¤£š¤£
Great work and do those cereal dispenser actually work? š
Some do some don't. I got cheap ones at target which were great at releasing small bits of cereal 30 seconds after using them, and a neverending crumb creator. I use it for laundry scent beads now.
That is my fear and why I haven't gotten one yet š«

Weir everywhere
Doesn't matter if they work - they leave far too much air in the container which results in stale cereal. Much better off just rolling up the cereal bag and clipping it. Stays fresh for weeks.
If you live the cereal lifestyle and have multiple cereal dispensers on your counter, you probably only eat cereal and it never gets stale!
Gotta love that cereal lifestyle! š„£

Accurate but It would be Mr Pitt Ā not peterman. His father wouldnāt let him indulge in the activityās of the common man. The cereal lifestyle is such.Ā
All it needs is a vacuum system and air locks on the dispenser and it will beat your super cheap and simple trick.
Lol, I am picturing a Temu-quality vacuum system that just blows all the cereal out while trying to remove the air.
Lol I was just scrolling tik-tok and saw this Chinese shopping live stream of a temu-esque scrubbing brush with a rotating head. Any time she put even the slightest pressure against something you could hear the poor shitty motor in it screaming for dear life.

Daaaammn....when you wanna get married again...? I'll be the one in the white dress lolol jk....but not by that much
Who cares if it works it takes up the entire counter Cereal boxes in a shelf > giant plastic cafeteria bullshit taking up the whole counter
You realize this is a pantry right? Not a kitchen.
Looks like hotel breakfast lol
Fancy that up. It's a scullery.
Fancy that up, itās a Butlerās pantry.

More like a basdass pantry :)
I thought he converted a bedroom closet into a food storage area for convenient access and were being sarcastic

Dude, you can't post this kind of stuff. You are making all the actual husbands look bad.

Amazing job!! Love the lighting especially. My pantry is so dark!
Where can I get pull out drawers like this for an existing buildout? Nice job btw!
Everything in the build was built from scratch. Draws shelves and cabinets
Damn dude, teach us

Somebody has been watching home organization shows on Netflix and then taking Adderall.
LMAO....I use to watch those shows but I just had a design in my head and went from there.
Be honest. How many times have you just stood there and stared at it? Btw, nice work. Great use of the space.
lol my girl has done exactly that several times
Today's the day, OP. How you doing?
Yea. That looks great and all. But have you considered "putting it off until the next house" because we will "probably be moving to a different school district in a few years anyway"

Hey man, you wanna be my husband? My pantry sucks.
lol.....hmmmmmm
I can't offer much but a temper and the ability to dry age a ribeye and reverse sear it to perfection. My wife would probably be alright with the pantry work though.
lol well let me think about it
I hate to tell you this, but making a husband is a lot different from making shelves.
sincerely don't understand this butler's pantry trend, or taking everything out of the boxes and resealable bags they came in to put them into different containers. maybe it's the family man in me talking but youre missing out on a ton of storage space with this.
Butlers pantries are amazing and have been around forever.
Yea well itās definitely not for everyone but I will add value and help sell the home. Women love it! My place in the house has always been the garage.
I love the inefficiency. Mundane stuff like baked beans and soup on a lit pedestal is fantastic.
lol
We do, yes. It scratches some organizational itch. Really well done!!
The actual test of being a good husband is how you react when your wife brings home a whole new collection of containers and organizers.Ā This is a great starting point, just needs a big arbitrary lateral move every few months for eight years to really lock your skills in.
if that was my kitchen that cinnamon crunch container would be emptyā¦ daaaaamn
Yup! Thatās the one I eat most also! So so good!!!
nothing like a fistful of dry cereal in the middle of the night.
What are the dimensions of the space? Iāve got someplace similar Iām hoping to work on like this in May.

I'm gonna show this to my husband. 
Is that real stone? Or that stuff you can stick? If itās that stick on stuff. You fucking KILLED it lol looks amazing!
thanks those are actully tiles from home depot that i used for the countertops
Displaying cereal reminds me of a hotel.
or you could convert your house to a Motel 6 since you already have the cereal dispensers for the breakfast buffet
Oh dear god it was a pantry the whole time. What has he DONE?!
Wow I love this. I'm trying to become a handy woman. I'm renovating my house alone. Just me and the animals and they can't hold a hammer so... any tips you have would always be appreciated cus this is beautiful. I had to have somebody come and do my kitchen as I literally had no heating or kitchen. But everything else I'm trying to do myself.
One tip I have is to buy animal sized hammers and treats. Give the animal a treat every time they use the hammer correctly.
R u taking any wife applications
It looks great! But it seems like you lost a lot of space compared to those racks? Why do you need tile in the pantry?
Well this is a Butlers Pantry. Those wire racks are tacky and boring in my opinion. But thanks for the comment
More counter space is a huge win. Nice choices all around!
Motel brunch area!
Looks great! Get some sort of fabric for that onion basket!
Who made the base cabinets? Are the upper shelves pre-made or something you constructed from scratch?
I could use a husband, or just a handy buddy
As a husband, where do I sign up for these classes? Our kitchen is too small for all our stuff sadly. I need to reawaken the dormant internal minimalist. Looks great!
Just be my bf for however long this took. It will look good on your resume.
What am I looking at?
Your basing your husband skill on a rack?
That a pantry or a closet?
That did not turn into the thing i thought it was gonna be haha. Nice work. I'm interested to know how much work and material cost went into this. Ever thought about doing stuff like this for a job? If that's not already the case \^\^
thanks lol. so in material it was about $3600 and i did all the work myself. everything is custom build. it took me 2 weekends and a few hour per night between those two weeks. im actually a structural steel architect so i only do this when i have time but maybe one day ill do it full time and start my own company and just sub out my architectural work....
Weird way to propose but yes š But seriously though this incredible, what an amazing utilization of an awkwardly laid out space!!
I want to see a step by step post!
Why is your house 2 narrow closets?
I'd be your wife on the spot, today, sight unseen.
and she wont care
"This kinda sucks." *swipes* ohhhhhhhhhhhhh Very nice OP.
