Almost a year of being confined inside our home, I can still remember how I felt during the first few months. There were days that I felt suffocated and irritated with all the mess and the chaos in such a small space. I even cried at one point due to frustration because I know there’s nothing I can do. My husband and I planned to have our house built really soon so my only choice really was to accept our situation and try my best to deal with the mess peacefully.
Home-keeping is NO easy task. The struggle to keep our small house clean, especially for a work-at-home mom like me with an active toddler is extremely difficult and I am sure the same goes to all stay-at-home moms out there who have kids. You clean and organize and blink for a second and it’s messy again 😀 Am I right, mommas?
But, we have to try our best. That’s when I started planning and organizing our little home.
One of the struggles that I have is how I organize our groceries and cleaning essentials considering that we don’t have a pantry yet. I’ve always wanted one but since I don’t have one yet, I decided to place our cleaning essentials on our mini veranda. We rarely stay there anyway so why not convert it to our mini cleaning essentials area. I don’t want to say that we hoard but we certainly buy more stocks every time we visit the grocery because we still want to limit going outside. (It’s still not safe guys)
I originally just placed our cleaning essentials on boxes when I started but oh boy! It was such an eyesore! 😀 So, to take care of my clutter problem, I gave the Cutting Edge Storage Solutions of Mdgruppe a try! I checked out their 4 Layer Steel Storage Rack and loved it!

Why do I love the Cutting Edge Multi-purpose 4-Layer Steel Storage Rack?

Nothing seems durable enough but with this, I am pretty sure I would be able to use it for a lifetime. Thus, I am excited to have my own pantry and use it there. 🙂 So, the wisest decision really, mommy is to invest on products that will last for a long time.

- Guaranteed with a 10-year warranty. Another reason not to worry, right? 🙂
Here’s how I organize our cleaning materials now!
- I bought some storage containers to place products in categories. I am at peace whenever I organize these products 😀
- I assembled products according to their expiration date.
- I placed all heavy products on our storage rack and it was durable and sturdy enough.
I super love the mini makeover of this area! I love how simple and sturdy this storage rack is and in my opinion, it looks really neat when I placed it on the wall.
Organizing became very therapeutic for me to be honest. I find peach and joy seeing our stuff organized. It took away whatever anxieties that I was feeling and made me a happier mom! Undeniably, this small cleaning essential area is now my most favorite place! When I get stressed, I organize! 😀
