Magnet Spice Rack/Bulletin Board

I have spice issues; they've been out of control for some time now, and I'm finally ready to admit my problem and conquer it.

Some of my friends like Pottery Barn; others spend their time at Anthropologie. But give me Home Depot any day.

I cleared out a drawer full of spice packages and bottles, and put them into these cool magnetic containers from World Market. Now all I needed was a magnet board to hang them on. Unwilling to settle for a plain boring metal sheet, I browsed the aisles of Home Depot until I found these. They were in the "vent" section and came in several sizes; these are about 15"x8".

I made some labels on clear decal paper and filled my jars.

With my spice issues are under control, I was inspired to tackle the space issues over my desk as well. Now, if only the kids' clothes and toys were magnetic...

    What a creative idea! I think you need to change the name of your blog. Simple, but not ordinary!

    This is a great idea. I like how it hangs so it doesn't take up counter space. And the colors are fun :)
