When I think about reorganizing my pantry or cupboards, I usually fall into the same trap: I get way too excited about going to the extremes that I see in glossy magazines. I start imagining what type of matching containers or spice jars I will buy. I plan to design and print out perfect matching labels and I daydream about how beautiful my cabinets will be and how inspired I will be to open them and cook! And you know what happens? Nothing. I get so caught up in doing it “perfectly” that I don’t do it at all. Can anyone relate?
So instead of going crazy on a kitchen pantry redo, I am borrowing one of Rachel’s ideas and going to do one simple thing to make my life easier: organize spices! The thing that I like most about this idea is, it is none of things I mentioned above. It is quick, free, simple and super effective! All you have to do is grab a Sharpie and write the name of each spice on top. That way when you pull the drawer open, you can immediately grab what you need without having to pick up and look through spices, or go out and buy a spice rack or organizer. ~Cortnee
Simply write the name of each spice on top with a Sharpie so you can organize spices and easily find them in the drawer!
