“Spicing Up" My Spice Cabinet!!
Welcome back Homemakers in the making!
Want to tackle and organize a small area of your kitchen that will make a HUGE difference in your homemaking?
Today, I'm sharing some organizational inspiration to "spice up" your spice cabinet! As you know, functionality in an RV is crucial, and sometimes the space you're given isn't very ideal! This was the case for me when it came to where I should put my spices? The most convenient location was a slim cabinet left of the oven, but unfortunately, the spices sort of just tumbled, jumbled, and fumbled around! It was impossible to find what I needed without shining my phone screen into the cabinet for a desperate source of light!! What a waste of precious time! Being that joyful homemaking is a BIG passion of mine, the last thing I needed to encounter was frustration while trying to cook a delicious meal for my family! So, here I am, bringing you along for the ride, as I establish “order” in my spice cabinet!
Now, for the BEFORE:
First, I had my husband measure out the wonky cabinet space where we keep our spices. (I couldn't risk screwing the measurements up myself, haha!) Then, we searched Amazon to find the perfect slide out spice rack to fit our cabinet which we found HERE.
(I love that this spice rack is double tiered, can hold up to 20 spices (which was the perfect amount), and slid OUT of our dark cabinet so that I could see ALL of my spices easily!)
Next, I decided to create a more “aesthetic” appeal amongst my different-sized spice containers, and ordered a set of 24 uniform glass bottles off of Amazon linked HERE!
(I was pleasantly surprised that the company included a blue silicone funnel to transfer the spices, as well as a multitude of different sticker labels to choose from! Totally worth the price!)
Although tempted to use the labels included in my purchase of glass containers, I couldn’t resist trying out my new label maker HERE for the very first time! I labelled each individual spice to make it as easy as possible to locate, and turns out, I could RAVE about this label maker ALL day long! I love the “typewriter font,” and how easy, fast, and affordable it was! Only $9.99!
After labeling and filling the glass spice containers, my dear hubby installed the spice rack, and I put the spices in their place! (I decided to place my most used spices towards the top/front for easier grabs!) I was AMAZED at the difference of the AFTER! Now, instead of digging deep into a dark cabinet while cooking, I'm able to easily SLIDE OUT my spice rack, and find exactly what I need!! Talk about an instant upgrade! :-)
Now, for the BEFORE and AFTER:
