One of the things that I don’t like about my kitchen is that there is no room in it for the wall spice rack that I bought many years ago and love so much. The reason that I love that spice rack is that it is made out of wood, the jars had copper tops, and it has a traditional “country” look to it. Since I have a small collection of copper accented things around the house, and a few copper decorative furnishings in the kitchen, I really liked this one spice rack better than all of the under-counter and inside-cupboard spice racks that I’ve ever been able to find.
I do have a nice kitchen pantry closet that I keep my spices in, but there are several different spice rack set-ups in there. One of them is a double-decked lazy susan. Another one is a newer kind that I cannot remember what it is called but it is ingenious in the design – it has four shelves that flip and twist and slide around. To be honest, I’d like something like that on a larger scale because this particular one only holds small cans and bottles, and many of the cans, jars and bottles that spices are sold in just do not fit. That is the most aggravating part of storing spices, don’t you agree?
