How to Organize your Spices

We all know the struggle of jumbled spices. However, we NEED our spices to give our delicious home meals extra flair, so what do we do? Well, your favorite professional organizer is here to help! Having an organization system for spices not only makes your cabinets/drawers look better, it also helps you cook more efficiently!

Ready to stop digging through your drawers and cabinets to find that one spice your dish needs? Follow these 6 easy steps to organize your spices.

Step 1: Gather all of your spices into one pile and clean the drawers and cabinets they were in. 

Step 2: Throw out any spices that are expired, no longer have any scent, and/or hardened. 

Step 3: Decide if you want to go the extra mile when it comes to spice containers. Are you happy with the different containers your spices are in? If they aren't working for you or your space, consider buying a set of matching spice containers like this one from Amazon which comes with handy labels as well.

Step 4: Measure your drawer or cabinet and line it. This isn't absolutely necessary, but it helps keep your space clean and prevents your storage solutions from shifting.

Step 5: Choose your organizer. Which organizing solution you choose will depend on the type and size of your space:

-in drawer racks
-slide-out cabinet shelves
-cabinet lazy susan
-three tier spice rack holder
-cabinet door organizer

Step 6: Place those babies in your new organizing solution! Some people prefer organizing their spices by alphabetical order and others prefer keeping the most commonly used spices at the front. Choose what works best for you!

And just like that, your spices are beautifully organized and easily accessible! Need help getting the rest of your home organized? Contact me and let's chat more about how Sage Organizing Co. can help you!
