It’s simple. Gather up your spices to assess what you have and what spices you may need to stock up on again. If you want, buy some small glass jars to store your most commonly used bulk spices and use a label maker to make them easily identifiable. This makes it more aesthetically pleasing and helps reduce plastic waste – it’s a win-win!
Next, buy a lazy susan that suits your needs. Clear out some space in your spice cupboard and add the lazy susan. We chose to take off one the removable plastic caddies and place two bigger jars of our favorite seasonings directly on the base, but you can do whatever works for you and your space.

Add your spices in whatever packaging they’re in to the storage container, grouping them together. That’s it!
