I don,t like to have alot of my preps put in plain view,these pictures are from a house I use to live in,now I own my own home and have just moved in..I am planning on putting up a few divider walls but before the dry wall goes up this is what i want to do...FILL THEM.... ..cardboard is stop cans from falling on you











oh and don,t forget about the space behind your dresser drawers....I have a tall boy and the longer dresser I took all the drawers out and built some little shelves to keep cans from tipping out and I also wired them in...

If you need more pics just pm me,if I have put this in the wrong spot,then put me in time out...(NOT)

forgot to add the drawers are back in the dresser... long day

KELEE: THANKS FOR THE PIC'S. YOU GAVE ME SOME GREAT IDEA'S, NOW I GOTTA PULL OUT EVERY DRAWER IN THE HOUSE AND SEE IF THERE IS ROOM FOR STORAGE. SHEP

If there is not enough space to build little drawers like I did( I do have smaller dressers)..take your dresser drawers out and lay the frame work down..you can fill the caivties with pasta,s or kool aids..this style is a bit trickier..you will need a staple gun and some cardbaord..cut cardboar to the size of the dresser fill with goodies staple gun cardboard, set dresser back up right and replace drawes..

Note when you fill dressers with canned foods, they are very heavy to move..

Kelee; You absolutely rock. I thought I was being all creative...you put us all to shame. Thanks for all the good ideas. We owe ya.

Your Welcome and Thank You...

I am trying to get some new projects up and going, but with summer upon us and the kids being at home..I have not had as much time to work on new prep projects..

Yesterday and today,13 year old and I have been(and will be) pulling some trim off of one the walls in his basement bedroom..they were small pieces of board and layered like a roof would be done, what a pain to get off and I swear the guy that owned this house before us was "nail" happy...he also put up ply wood sheets to nail all of the board trim on, not looking forward to pulling that done and finding out whats underneath. Its to bad this is an outter wall,or I would fill it with cans....the bonus is once the plywood is down I can save those to cover windows in the house come SHTF if need be
