Default An Idea!

I'm a little bit frit-obsessed. I have so many different colors, but couldn't figure out how to keep all of it close to my bench without taking up tons of space. One day it came to me...Spice Rack! I bought one at Bed Bath and Beyond that came with empty bottles for the spices. I just filled each one with the frit, then removed the label from the original packaging and put it on the top of each jar. Viola!

Great idea. How hard was it to remove the labels? Dare the jars big enough to hold a typical jar of frit?

Most of the labels came off just fine. They even stick on the jars pretty well after I repasted them. A few are peeling away. Each spice jar corresponds to the regular size jar of frit, can't remember the exact weight but not the sample size, the regular size.

Beautiful rack and it is all so nice and neat and compact...wouldn't work for me as I would need 50 of them.

That's what I was going to say Lorraine - 50 racks later I would be broke but all my frit would be nicely organised .
