I sort of like the idea of a spice cave. I can't figure out how to store my spices so that they are both tidy and also easily accessible.

Those niches between studs have been a big thing for a couple years, although mostly in the bathroom, I think.

I've been seriously considering some similar solutions for my pretty-much-totally-without-storage old house. There are a few more samples here. Just having a place to put goddamned brooms and such would be huge. What makes this somewhat more difficult is that pretty-much-totally-without-storage old house also has a lot of chair rails.

The one in the picture is probably fine too because it looks to be well thought out but I've seen some similar ones (especially full height ones for storing other bits too) where they're not so fit for purpose and poo poo falls over all the dang time. Youth Decay posted:Option 1: fuckin' magnets Is that magnets? I thought the point of using jars was you glue the lids to the underside and use the screw action of the lid to hold the jars in, so you twist to remove. Also popular for holding screws, nails etc in workshops.

If you have to twist these it just seems like a great way to make a mess. Also I guess you have to duck your head under there to know what's past the first row? Or memorize?

Americans have no need for spice racks. They only season with salt or sugar.

that eight year old cayenne that came with the spice rack is really gonna add a zing to your chili go easy on the ranch, your aunt doesn't like it too spicy edit: related, i thought my mom had the worst most halfassed spices in the world for so long, turns out she just likes the 80s spice jar aesthetic, they're all less than a month old. or at least they are NOW, i do remember some bland-rear end curries (sorry mom)

I think we've hit peak words on walls (apologies for lovely image quality) unless they put other words on other walls (a possibility) they literally just have the word "grow" on the wall off their living room.

Someone stencilled quotes from the lion king in my son's new room. Almost an appropriate use of the stencil, but for the fact that he's 15.

Nah I prefer the idea of a lovely banksy sneaking in and covering the walls in awful toss before vanishing into the night. That or a government department sending round an ID equivalent of a social worker to bring the child's room up to spec with the latest legislation ("Says here children get lion king quotes, I don't care how old he is, more'n me job's worth to change it")
