Creative recycling with spice racks: if you want to spice up your projects this idea is sure to please. What to do with the many now empty jars that once housed rosemary, chives, turmeric and cinnamon? We at Pianeta design have more than one idea to offer you. Enjoy them one by one.
Glass is a precious material: resistant and long-lasting, why throw it away after the first use? Let’s go into the kitchen and think about our allies in creating delicious dishes: spices. Once finished how about reusing the jars who host them? The first step is to carry out a thorough cleaning: water, neutral soap and perfect drying are all you need.
So let’s start tidying up the house, room after room: in the kitchen, in the bathroom, in the bedroom and even in the garden you will no longer be able to do without your spice racks. Let’s start with the first creative project.

1. Bring original cocktails
Let’s stay in the kitchen and if the simplest idea is to reuse the jars to store spices or basil, parsley and celery in the freezer again, the most original idea is another. Amaze your friends at aperitif time using the jars to serve your cocktails.
A tasty spritz with the addition of a slice of orange, lemon or strawberry will be enough to amaze.
2. Toothpick holder
And if you need a place to put your toothpicks: how about that nice little spice jar just finished? Bring creative recycling to the table: just pierce the top cap with the help of a hot iron and from there at the right moment your toothpicks will come out.
Are you ready for the next idea? Let’s move to the bathroom.
3. Cotton swab holder
Precious allies to keep the most intimate room in the house in order: you can decide to use your spice racks as they are, playing with transparencies or repainting them to give them an extra touch perhaps in the same color as the bathroom tiles.

Place them on the piece of furniture or think of a more original wall installation: just a wooden plank on which to hook, through iron rings, the jars ready to welcome wadding, cotton buds but also toothbrushes and toothpastes for your oral hygiene.
4. Hair accessories in order
If you have long hair or, for your daughter, you are collecting a rich set of hair ties and your drawers are about to explode, the time has come to intervene. How about thinking of a really practical way to organize them to the best?
A few spice racks will suffice to insert rubber bands, tweezers or colored clothespins inside them. An extra touch is to repaint the cap with blackboard effect paint and note what is inside. Let’s move on: how can they help us at work?
5. In the workshop
If you have a workshop, here too i spice racks will prove invaluable. One for each element to be organized: screws, bolts, nails and everything will be in order and always at hand.
Organize your shelves perfectly and everything will go smoothly. Spice racks will be at the forefront ready to support you in your hardest or most creative jobs.
6. Creative recycling with spice racks: on the desk
How about embellishing your office corner or simply making it more functional your desk? Let’s try to organize it in the best possible way and in just a few steps with the our spice rack: are you ready?
Staples, nails, glue, rubber bands and much more will be visible and in perfect order. Start saving the next jars!
7. Set sewn in order
If you have the hobby of sewing and you don’t have much space available, do not worry in a few centimeters you can really have everything you need: cotton, needles and scissors always in order.
Why not also take advantage of an organizer that instead of hosting spices we are ready to host a rainbow of colors? Peek into the photo and copy the idea. We now come to some creative ideas perfect for the little ones or the most romantic.
8. Night light
A single small spice rack can become your baby’s best at night: like? Small LED lights stuck inside and secured to the cap will allow you to magically radiate the light all around and some creative design outside of it to chase away even the scariest monsters.
The more romantics can decide, instead, to brighten their evening by introducing a small candle inside: how about trying?
9. Pencil holder
Both for the little ones and for the older ones some spice racks will be useful to accommodate many colors and pencils inside. Create a special corner and to make it more fun to put it away, draw a little face on each jar. Let’s go to the last idea.
10. Useful planter
What better form, if not that of a spice rack, to accommodate a few freshly cut flowers? Turn your empty jar into an unusual jar and embellish a wall thinking of a rustic installation that recalls the earth and its colors. A pallet as a base will work perfectly: good job!
