Re: Curtain rod spice rack
That is an awesome idea.....I might just have to "borrow" it, as I don't have much in the way of storage space either....and hate having to search for spices when I am cooking.

Re: Curtain rod spice rack
Feel free to borrow like mad. We storage-challenged cooks do whatever it takes.
The flat plastic baskets at the front left side of the bottom shelf hold the tall bottles of spices, and I have them divided up by whether they're savory for making soups and entrees or sweet for baking. The middle basket holds the spice/herb blends, like garlic salt, lemon pepper and the like. So that way when I'm cooking, I can just pull out the appropriate basket. The baskets were 3 for $1 at Dollar Tree or one of the dollar stores.
I did break protocol and hide a partial bag of chocolate chips in the savory spices basket. My guys will eat them like candy if they see them, and they never look in that basket.

Mackie, that is a great idea! I just may be a copy-cat!
