Okay, I know it’s the first day of February and we are not in January anymore, but I am still doing some organizing around the house.
My spices have been driving me crazy! I had them all on a lazy susan, but I still could only find the spices that were on the outside. Then I tried lining them up, but since I couldn’t see them all, it ended up being a jumbled mess.
I had seen different ideas all over the internet, but they didn’t work out with my kitchen. I only have about 5 feet of counter on one side and 4 feet on the other, plus a microwave and a dish drainer take up some of that space. I only have 5 drawers in my kitchen, so I couldn’t use up one of them for the spices. I finally found these on Amazon. I am not affiliated with Amazon, but I love these. Here is the link if you want to order some. I ordered 2 sets to make sure I would have enough for all the jars.
Each rack holds 4 jars. There is sticky tape on the back plus a tiny screw to hold it on the door. I started out by figuring out where to line them up so the jars wouldn’t hit the shelf inside the cupboard when the door closed. I placed small jars in one row and then larger ones in the other row. This way there could be 2 rows and they would fit between the shelves.
Once I figured out how far apart they needed to be I stuck them on using the tape. I did end up putting the tiny screws on the end, especially for the racks holding the larger bottles.
My summer goal is to paint these cupboards, so I will have to take these down and hopefully they will stick again. The directions say to use heat to loosen the glue. I will probably try a blow dryer and see if that works.
So far, I love these! It’s so much easier to find the spice I need plus it cleared up space in my cupboard. A win/win! Have you been doing your January/February organizing and clean-up? I love to hear what you have been doing!

Nice idea! My spices seem to multiply! I still have 3 lazy susans for spices. I looked on Amazon and these are reasonably priced also. Thanks for sharing! Blessings, Janet

These look nice. I have to laugh because I just blogged about how I use a lazy susan to organize my spices. I guess everyone finds what works for them. I”m always changing up things so I may switch to your method sometime in the future. Thanks for sharing.

I had the lazy susan for years, but I finally just got frustrated, so I will see how long this works before I change my mind again!! Thanks for coming by!
