On the 1st Day of Christmas
My true love gave to me
What is a slant jar? Simply put, a jar that is slanted. Instead of the opening and lid on the top, they are at a slant. No more reaching into your jar with claw hand — we’re aiming for **Proper Pantry Ergonomics** — and the slant jar is here for us.
When it comes to slant jars, we have 2 non-negotiables:
- They must be airtight — we are trying to keep food fresher, longer
- They must have a lid with a handle — for effortless, one-handed opening
Fortunately, we have options:
Our go-to slant jar is the Matte Black. It’s functional, it’s beautiful and it shows the least amount of fingerprints. This one is sold exclusively at The Container Store.

While we do have peppermint bark in them for the holidays, we recommend opting for a healthier option for the first 11 months of the year — think almonds, walnuts, cashews, pistachios or dried fruit. I also love using these to elevate your morning routine. They are great for protein powder, collagen peptides, PB Fit or your favorite supplement. The slanted angle makes all the difference.
When it comes to pantries, the slant jar is the star of the show. Reach out with any questions and tag @modernvilla__ on Instagram so we can see your slant jar’s in all their glory.
Happy Holidays and Happy Organizing!

Courtney
