Most of the spice racks I've found had jars that were smaller than the standard jars we buy at the store, so to use them I'd have to store the excess spice from a single jar somewhere other than in the jar on the spice rack, which pretty much negates the advantage of the rack! How about these jars, will they hold the entire contents of a standard 1-7/8" x 4-1/8" jar? Please tell me this is the solution I've been looking for!! :) Anna, a big question for you!

It's a pretty simple operation!! No snapping involved, the jars (and caps, which have integrated shake/pour tops) lift right out of the racks. It’s a pretty simple operation!!

I mean, I think I heard angels sing! Love your organization tips and style. Here's a toughie... How do I create your level of style and "home crispness" (love your colors and clean lines) with two small boys and a sixty pound dog? LOL Anyway, keep all the great pics coming! They are a bright spot in a dreary, cold winter! Ok, I have been keeping up with this site for a while now and have really, really liked it but when I saw the spice racks, I knew it was love.

I wound up painting 5 coats of paint that is made to be used with magnets on the inside of the door and sticking magnetic spice jars on it. So far, so good!

I have very narrow and tall cabinets next to the stove. Do you think these will hang sideways without the jars coming out? And I don't want to drill it into my tile backsplash, what to do?

I just bought a dehydrator so I can dry my own herbs this summer when we have a garden. These spice racks are exactly what I need, and what a space saver it will be.
