Build a DIY Slide Out Pantry

It's Pinterest to the rescue once again as my newlywed daughter and her handsome husband searched storage options for their new apartment.

My daughter and her husband quickly got to work buying the 1" x 6" wood, dowels, and castors needed for the project.


gluing boards then screwing them together to build a slide out cabinet

Woman creating a box for the first step

They used wood screws to build a box then attach shelves from one end to the other.

They used wood glue and small nails to attach a thin piece of plywood to the back of the box.  


wood glue and screws make this diy kitchen storage perfect for any small space

On the bottom they added castors so the piece would roll in and out. 


It is important to use castors that don't rotate in every direction.

Lastly, they added wooden dowels about an inch or 2 above the shelves to hold in the dry goods.  


This can be done with small nails from the outside or a nail gun.


I'm thinking this would make great craft storage too!
