Best thing ever: My awesome spice rack
I was tired of my kitchen cupboards being overflowing with spices that I could never find when I needed to, so with some inspiration from the internet I created these. Its a nice magnetic spice rack that gets all of my spices out of the cupboard and easily accessible when cooking.
This is also a very easy project. You will need the following:
Individual Clear Glass Spice Jars (Updated link from reader Jill with much cheaper containers, thanks!) & Neodymium Magnets and your spices
Those link to the exact ones that I used for this project.
The nice thing about these magnets is that no glueing is required. They are nice and strong so I simply put them in the underside of the spice jar lid. Done and done.
It is also a good idea to label the spices. Grab your label maker if you’ve got one.
They make these awesome clear labels, which work very well for this project.
and here is the finished jar all labeled.
I took a piece of sheet of metal from Home Depot and glued it under the cabinet for the jars to attach to.
Gorilla Glue works well for this.
Then you just take all the jars…
and put them under the cabinets. Thats it. Arrange them how you like. You will start to notice which ones you use most often and keep those up front for easy access.
I have about 30 or so jars. It freed up a ton of room in my cupboards, it looks really nice, and its really easy to grab the spices when needed.
