Getting Serious ~ Spice Cupboard

My cupboard for spices is small to begin with, but there is no need for it to be this cluttered. I'm not a gourmet cook by any means. Shoot. I'm not even a good cook by any means! 

Maybe that's why I have so many spices ~ to make me think I'm better at cooking than I really am.

Anyway, every time I open this cupboard, I am overwhelmed. It's hard to see just how much stuff is in here from the photos, but there was a lot.

BEFORE





AFTER



I got rid of at least a dozen things. For now I have set aside several spices and bottles I'm just not sure about. I must have bought them for a reason, so I don't want to just throw them out and then find I need them. So I've set them aside and if I don't use them fairly soon, out they will go.

Have you done any decluttering lately?

  1. Doesn't it feel great to get rid of nonessentials? I love a clean, organized space - makes me feel like creating something yummy.

    I like to buy spices in bulk. I can try out a tiny amount for a new recipe without a lifetime commitment.
