Wall space can be spice space

An empty area on your kitchen wall may be a good spot to organise your spices – especially when drawer and counter space is limited. If a wall cabinet seems too much – or you simply don’t want to drill – then wall shelf and suction-cup container are quick and easy ways to add more convenience to your kitchen.

An anthracite-colour MOSSJÖN wall cabinet with shelves/glass door has spice jars inside and is mounted on a white wall.
