This $36 DIY Kmart spice rack will make you feel like you've got your life under control.

 

Felicity Meredith is 26 and she has 25,000 Instagram followers. Unlike many influencers her age, Fliss didn’t go on MAFS or The Bachelor. She is, however, very organised.

And gosh she’s clever about it.

When Fliss was unable to find a wooden spice rack that suited the sleek aesthetic of her pantry, she took matters into her own hands.

The Perth-based influencer purchased six “Large & Wide Bamboo Drawer Tidy” boxes from Kmart, turned them upside down, and tiered them into the sleekest spice rack that ever was.

Pantry. Goals.

Fliss stacked the boxes by putting three on the bottom, two on top of the bottom, and one at the back of the top level.

Speaking to Mamamia, Fliss said she has always been obsessed with organisation.

“My motivation for having an organised home comes from always loving organising and decorating. My partner and I are both pretty busy and are home bodies, we find that by having systems in place to keep our home organised saves us time and allows us to spend more of our down time enjoying our home and with our rescue kitten, Frankii,” she told Mamamia.

With regard to the time it takes to achieve peak organisation, Fliss says it saves time in the long run.

“Although it does take time to initially organise a space, it only takes us a few minutes to unpack our weekly groceries into containers or put away in the designated area. We find this is a huge time saver when we are looking for something and meal planning. We can easily see what items we are running low on and don’t overbuy because we can see everything we have,” she told Mamamia.

But the kitchen and pantry aren’t the only parts of Fliss’s home that’s amazingly organised.

Here is how she organises the rest of her space.

Kitchen.

Laundry.

Living Room.

I bid $48 for the same spice rack minus the Cummin - I'm willing to pay the difference

I tried making my own curry once, I now need a spot in my spice rack for asafoetida.
Even the guys in the the specialty Asian food shop didn't know what it was. I found it on a high shelf hidden behind a metal railing.
It goes out of date in 2024, so i'm sure it will sit in my cupboard until then.

"I found it on a high shelf hidden behind a metal railing. "

Look, I'm not judging your food choices here, but that is exactly where you would expect to find a RatSack.

...that.....that would explain a few things actually.
Curry did not turn out well, thought it was my cooking skills.

I’m glad I clicked through to her Instagram page. I was looking at these photos, thinking ‘where’s the rest of the food?’ No tins of anything, no jars of vegemite, no bottles of tomato sauce or any of the other bits and pieces my pantry seem to accumulate. Turns out, she has all that stuff too, just hidden away in big white plastic containers. Looks nice, a little too minimalist and ‘perfect’ for my tastes, but I do wish my fridge looked that organised!
