Materials:
1) 1-2 magnetic knife racks; one rack holds about 8 jars. I got mine from Ikea
2) Spice jars, I see them at Bed Bath & Beyond, at my market in the spice section or at The Container Store
3) 8-16 metal 1 1/4" washers
4) 2-part epoxy
5) course sandpaper
First you want to take some course sandpaper and rough up the the center part of the plastic lids and also one side of the washers to help the glue stick. Mix up enough epoxy and spread a generous portion on the lid and place the washer on top. Set aside for at least a couple hours, preferably overnight before using.
Mount your knife racks under a shelf or cabinet according to the directions, arrange your spice jars and there you have it, a simple magnetic hanging spice rack!
Awesome-ness! I have to do this! I always knock over other spices when searching through them on the shelf I have.
ReplyDeleteThanks Tutus & Tea Parties! It's very handy and easy to use; I keep the spices I use the most up front and it looks cool too!

ReplyDeleteHi there! Just wondering if you find the hot glue holds the washers onto the plastic bottle tops well. Thanx :)
ReplyDeleteNot sure about hot glue; it tends to peel off of some plastics. I would do a test and be sure to rough up the plastic lid with some course sandpaper or an Exacto knife first. I like 2 part epoxy because it is permanent.
