RE: Other Uses for a Spice Rack

My oldest sister years ago,collected mini bottles.(booze) She would not open them,said the seal could not be broken.I was never sure, about the seal thing.She hung them in the kitchen,it looked like that was where they belonged.She rented alittle house,with every little money.It was a cute way to put something on the walls,and show off her bottles.She said if she every had money enough to have a mini bar, she would hang them behind it.

I use one to line up all of my fingernail polishes. It's the perfect size for them. Also, all the bottles of different types of glues for my crafts.
I also have the bottles of Puffy Paint, and other fabric paints, and treatments there.

Hi Sherry

I use one for keeping my fragrant oil bottles in. I also have another one that I use to put my pretty little perfume bottles in - the small expensive ones that you can buy at Christmas.
Cheers

RE: Other Uses for a Spice Rack

I use my old spice rack to store all my sewing tools. Much more organized than anything else I have used.

RE: Other Uses for a Spice Rack

I have a spice rack from the 60's that my mother gave me. I sanded it down and spray painted it white and put it into my "cottage style" bedroom to hold all my little collectibles and small pictures. I just love how it turned out and I like taking something old and giving it a new use.

RE: Other Uses for a Spice Rack

Do you craft? You could store beads, buttons and glitter in the bottles. Or, with the empty rack, you could store fabric squares for quilting projects. How about using the rack for storing coupons, clipped notices from the newspaper, random photos, filing your bills, etc.

RE: Other Uses for a Spice Rack

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THAT GREAT IDEA. ACTUALLY, I DON'T TAKE A LOT OF MEDS OR VITAMINS. SO, COULD YOU PLEASE GIVE IT ANOTHER SHOT. I WOULD LIKE TO USE JUST THE CABINET ONLY. HOWEVER, I WILL CONSIDER ANY OTHER IDEAS YOU OFFER. THANKS SO MUCH FOR YOUR TIME AND IDEAS........HAVE A GOOD DAY!.......SHERRY

RE: Other Uses for a Spice Rack

Do you have a collection of pills? If you have prescription or vitamin supplement pills around, that would be a good area to store them. Since vitamin supplements come in a variety of bottle sizes, you might take the spice bottles you still have, dump out the spices you no longer use and put your vitamin supplements in them. Label them so you know which bottle is holding what vitamin and alphabetize them in your new VITAMIN rack!
