The $14 Adhesive Organizer That’ll Instantly Create Storage Space for Spices (It’s a Must for Renters!)
There’s a saying in the organizational world: The best organizational solutions are the ones you’ll stick to. And it’s true— if you’re not the kind of person to alphabetize your spices or decant your pantry items into identical containers, no amount of smart or sleek storage items are going to change your mind.
Kitchen storage is an especially unique beast — everyone cooks differently, so everyone’s organizational needs are different. One of the biggest pain points for many home chefs? Their spice storage (or lack thereof). Top of mind, there are fewer things in the kitchen that can cause such immense chaos if left unorganized — as anyone who has ever had a teetering tower of spice canisters tumble out onto them surely knows for themselves.
Enter: this simple yet genius spice storage solution from SimpleHouseware. Perfect for renters (or anyone who doesn’t want to dedicate countertop or cabinet space to their spice collection), this handy rack relies on a strong adhesive backing to keep each strip of grippers safely on the wall even if they’re filled to the brim with spices.
With the ability to corral spice canisters of all shapes and sizes — and strips that can be arranged however your kitchen necessitates — this is truly a customizable solution fit for kitchens big and small. Spices are held in place by a series of claw grips that expand to fit around most standard round containers ranging from 1.5 inches to 1.75 inches in diameter. Translation: There’s no need to decant your spices into matching glass jars in order to make this storage solution work (that is, of course, unless you want to for ~*aesthetics*~).
With over 10,000 five-star ratings on Amazon, this spice storage solution is a clear winner — but don’t just take our word for it. Reviewers love this handy collection, with one reviewer even asking themselves “how I ever lived without this?” Another happy customer writes, “I had one spice rack on a kitchen counter and other spices scattered in a nearby cupboard. Bringing them all together inside the cupboard door seemed like a perfect solution. I ordered two sets of racks, which can hold 40 spice jars… Once you set the adhesive down, you have no wiggle room to make changes. It stuck *immediately* to my cupboard door and hasn’t budged since. I store my spices in plastic jars because I think that many glass ones would be too heavy for the cupboard door. Also, as one reviewer noted, the holders work best if they have a “shoulder” above the hook. I’m very pleased with my alphabetized, convenient spices, and I’m very glad I put in the work to make this happen.”
At under $20 and flexible in every way imaginable, this is one spice rack that deserves its place in the organizational hall of fame. Plus, with over 10 percent off right now, there’s no better time to invest in getting your kitchen in order!
