Is your spice cabinet a mess? Learn how to organize your spice cabinet the KonMari way and now you can actually use them more.

How To Organize Your Spice Cabinet

The last few months I have KonMari many parts of my home. If you donā€™t know what it is here is a link to Marie Kondo who developed the method. Itā€™s basically organizing your home in specific categories. Getting rid of items you donā€™t need and only using what you want. For the spice category I had all my spices everywhere and half of them were not being used.

Supplies Needed For KonMari

  • Spice bottles: Found these cute jars on Amazon


  • Larger Jars: Dollar Store has a bunch of large jars perfect for baking ingredients.


  • White marker: These are great for writing on glass jars.

Steps On How To Organize Your Spice Cabinet

My spice cabinet is large so I can store many other things like baking stuff.

Step 1:


Take all the stuff out of your spice cabinet and lay it on your counters. Get rid of stuff you donā€™t use.

Step 2:


Wash your spice jars, dry them well. You donā€™t want water to mix with the spices.

Step 3:


Fill the jars with the spice. This is a great way to rid of hard spices that are old and empty spice containers with only a few sprinkles left.

Step 4:


With a white magic marker you can write the name of the spice on the glass. For the larger jars I wrote it on top of the silver lids.

Step 5:


I put all the jars of spice in alphabetic order.

As you can see the spices are where everyone can see them and the beauty of having them in a jar, you can use use your fingers to sprinkle on your food. Itā€™s a secret of good chefs when it comes to flavoring their food.

The first shelf has all my new spices, the second shelf I placed all the baking ingredients like flour into larger jars and the third shelf is unused spices and baking ingredients to fill the jars up.

    Hi, I am reading your post from Pretoria South Africa. Loved it. My question is how to make a pickle jar air tight again. There isn't many jars with screw on lids here. Thank you for post. God bless
