I am so glad you posted this with so many photos. I'm working on my spice cabinet and was going to use wood to make "stairs" and went surfing for ideas. Voila! I'm so excited I don't have to spend a lot on the boards, either. Thank you SO much! Ohmygosh! I am so glad you posted this with so many photos.

I personally have my spices lying in a drawer that I pull out. This is a nice idea. I personally have my spices lying in a drawer that I pull out.

Thanks for the comment! I am glad you liked the tip. We know all about being poor students!! (My hubby has been in school for years, and at current calculation has 8 more to go!) Brenda - Thank for your comment as well. I do my spices alphabetically as well. Just let your husband know how to put them back right so HE can find things when he wants them. Most husbands think all the organizing is a bit of a pain until they see how it benefits THEM! Then they are on board. When you go through your spices, let him know what you are doing, how you are doing it and why. Then explain how the system doesn't work when it is only you doing it!! If he still resists doing it this way, just tell him to leave them out and you will put them back in the right order. If he cooks - you can clean up. Go team! Hi Nic! Thanks for the comment!

I like that I can see everything at one time. Question though, how to you line your spices up....alphabetically? Or like spices? I have done it alphabetically but when other's use my kitchen (husband) he doesn't return the spice back to the same place, and soon I realize that they are not in order anymore. Do you have any suggestions on this so that we both will be happy cooking in the kitchen??? I have a little shelf very simular to this but probably not as long.

My husband and I are poor college kids and just the other day I was getting into the cupboard looking for oregano. I was so frustrated trying to find it. I just kept thinking I couldn't wait till we move out of our apartment and got a house. But this is a great solution that won't cost a lot or be a permanent thing in the apartment. THANK! I love it!
