If you have a cabinet filled with a bunch of jumbled spices and it's impossible to find what you need, then it's time to get organized. From cabinet pull-out organizers to wall storage, we have five spice rack ideas that'll reduce clutter and maximize space in your kitchen.

Drawer Inserts

Keep your spices close by and at the ready, while simultaneously reducing clutter with drawer inserts. They're made of wood or metal and contain multiple tiers to hold dozens of bottles. These spice organizers are designed to easily drop into a drawer or they can be cut to the desired length with a table saw.

Good to Know

How should spices be organized?

  • Alphabetize your spices to quickly find what you need.
  • Purchase glass spice bottles and transfer the spices from their original packaging.
  • Customize glass bottles with labels or use a label maker to make your own.

Pull-Out Spice Racks

Pull-out cabinet inserts give you quick and easy access to your favorite spices. They come in various sizes that can also hold mixing bowls, cooking oils, canned goods and more. In this image, a chrome pull-out spice rack can accommodate multiple bottles. There are also cabinet-mount pull-out spice racks where a wooden tray can be removed and placed on the countertop while you're cooking.

Freestanding Spice Racks

Renters and homeowners will both like these easy spice rack organizers. They don't require any tools or DIY skills and are made of wood, metal or plastic. Simply insert them into a pantry, kitchen cabinet or place them on a countertop to organize your spices. They typically come with 2-4 tiers and can accommodate numerous bottles. Once it's time to move, they're easy to remove from the cabinet or counter to take them with you.

Good to Know

Is it better to store spices in plastic, glass, or metal?

Wall or Pantry Door Storage

A wall spice rack is another way to maximize storage in a small space. Use a spare wall or an area on your backsplash to hang wire or wood shelving to hold spices, cooking oils, sauces and more. Some of these wall storage solutions also have hooks, so that you can hang them on the back of a pantry door.
