Look! Slim, Modern Spice Rack Inside a Cabinet Door

2009_10_26-spicerack1.jpgWhether or not you're involved in an organizational overhaul as part of our Fall Kitchen Cure, you might find some inspiration in this simple, clean spice rack from Anna at Door Sixteen. She elevated some basic IKEA bottles with Martha Stewart labels and spaced the racks so she could still close the cabinet door. Get more tips from Anna, below...

 
 

Mounting spice racks inside a cabinet makes so much sense; they're right at eye level, so you aren't digging around in a drawer while you're cooking.

Anna was smart. She displayed the 18 spices she uses most often (many of us might not use more than that anyway) and stored the bulk spices and the ones she uses less frequently in another place, clearly labeled.

I love it! I love my stainless steel spice rack, but I'd love to have my spices on a cupboard door, off my counter. In my itty bitty kitchen (which I love too!) any extra counter space is appreciated. Great idea!
