Phone at the ready? It's time to make one of those restock, refill, and "organize my pantry drawer with me" ASMR TikTok videos you can't stop watching. With the right organization buys, you can hop on this trend too. The first place to start is your kitchen with a game-changing spice rack that'll clean up your stockpile of seasonings.

Not only are they satisfying to look at, but they're also super eco-friendly. Taking your spice jars to a local refill center or investing in bulk bags of your most-used seasonings quickly cuts down on plastic packaging. Rather than rustling around for the paprika, spice racks will make mealtime a little bit more exciting (and better organized).

Whether you have a goal to whip up more home-cooked meals or you've moved out and have your own kitchen (finally!), now's the time to organize your pantry to perfection. And for the full aesthetic "it girl" apartment, there are plenty of kitchen storage ideas to copy, too.

The spice racks worth getting excited about

1. Bamboo Expandable Spice Rack - Brightroom™

Simple, stylish, and eco-friendly, you can't go wrong with this spice rack. A versatile pick, I love how you can store it on your countertops, stash it away in a drawer, or add it to the rest of your pantry organizers. FYI: It doesn't come with the jars, but for only $20, completing the display won't be too spendy.

2. Threshold Gold Spice Rack

Material: Wire

Can't get enough of gold accessories? Me neither. They add a touch of glamour to any space, even on your kitchen countertops. This freestanding spice rack is perfect for placing anywhere in your apartment, and with two open shelves, you're not restricted to what it can hold.

4. Cerpourt Acrylic Floating Wall Ledge Shelf

If you love the modern look (like me), then you'll find these super sleek acrylic ledge shelves to be *chef's kiss*. They'll look ultra stylish on your kitchen wall, but if you like them enough, they'll work for organizing any other room in the house too (not just for spices).

Is it better to store spices in glass or metal?

Just like glass meal prep containers are becoming a total trend, storing your spices in glass has benefits that go beyond how aesthetic it looks. Thanks to the nature of the material, glass creates a better seal, locking in all those fantastic flavors so they last much longer. That's not to say metal containers like stainless steel are bad for spices, but you will need to keep them in a cool, dry place, away from sunlight.
