2. Create A Spice Drawer

If you are short on cabinet space consider using a drawer to store your spices. There are various drawer inserts to keep your spices organized. If you are trying to save money, you can even make your own!

3. Use the Pantry Door

If there are no free cabinets or drawers in your kitchen, use the inside of the pantry door.

Again, you can save money by making these shelves on your own, or find something similar in the stores.
