If you love to cook, then you likely have an entire cabinet packed full of different spices. Some of these spices you may use on a regular basis and others on a not so regular basis, but either way, let’s admit it, your spice cabinet is a disaster. While it may seem like there is no way you can organize your spice cabinet efficiently, there are some storage hacks that can make the job a lot easier on you. Below, we will go over some of the best hacks to ensure that your spice cabinet is free from clutter and disorganization.

1. Utilize Your Pantry’s Door

If you have a pantry in your kitchen, you have probably noticed that the interior door does not serve much of a purpose and is more of a blank space than anything. You can quickly and easily transform your pantry’s cabinet door into a spice rack for yourself. To do this, grab a few different sized wire racks and mount them to the door. You can organize your spices by color, name, and use.

2. Have a Test Tube Collection

Have a couple of spices that you use on the regular? If so, you know it can be difficult to find them in the stack of spices, but now, you can have them right at your disposal. Grab a small wooden box and some test tubs. Add the spice to the test tube and then place the tube into the wooden box. You can access your most readily used spices quickly and easily.

Since the winter is officially over, it is time to start freeing up space in your garage and placing your winter equipment into storage. But, before you just toss your snow blower and skis into your storage unit, you need to know that they will be in good condition when you return next year.

In addition, you can use the manual to guide you when it comes to caring for your equipment.
