Organizing My Spices

Ooookay, so my biggest issue with organizing has always been my dang spices.  I HATE organizing spices.  I hate trying to dig through a cupboard filled with spices to find the exact spice I am looking for, I hate not being able to really alphabetize and organize them, and most of all, I hate the way they look when you have different brands of spices.  Some bottles are big, some are small, some are glass, some are plastic...so on and so forth.  This drives my O.C.D. CRAZY!

Well....for Christmas my sister got me a set of magnet containers from Ikea.  I am such a slack that until today the only thing I have put in them was chalk.  However, I FINALLY decided to utilize the awesome containers for my spice drawer problem.  I went to Ikea this afternoon and bought a few more sets of the containers she got me.  I then printed off some clear labels of all the spices I had hidden away in my evil spice drawer.  My daughter and I worked together to empty the spices into the new containers, put the labels on them, and alphabetize them on the refrigerator...

and....VOILA
 A much more organized, spice holder that doesn't take up any space...and the best part is that they all match. :)  I love the way it looks, and it doesn't take up any of my much needed counter and cupboard space.  yay!
