Spice Rack. Organized.

Very few things curl my toes the way extreme organization does. Everything in the same size container or colored-coordinated folder, labeled and alphabetized? Good gawd. Swoon.

Today, I tackled the spice rack in our kitchen a la an idea I saw in Real Simple this month. Small spice jars ($0.99 each) and silver wire racks ($9.99 each) from World Market.

Alex helped a bunch, bless his heart. When I get like this (Nesting, we call it.) he can either follow my lead or get out the house.

Made the the labels using a label maker one of my best friends gave me for Christmas a couple years ago. Does she know me, or what? Font size Small. White label with black ink.

Mounted the spice racks around the perimeter of one of the shelves in the pantry, freeing up all kinds of space for other pantry goodies (Like cookies!).

Entire project took about 2.5 hours. Time well spent.

Sigh. Happy.
