May this kitchen improvement speed you on your culinary way. Must be nice to be handy like that with tools. I can barely drive a nail straight.

They do slope a tiny bit, and this was made for a specific location, on a plaster wall that isn't perfectly vertical. The house is 88 years old. The bed frame in the guest room where were sleeping this winter is made from 2x4s. We've shut off our upstairs rooms because it costs a lot to heat them as cold as it's been. --B |

Good question. I also noticed that on the bottom shelf is a jar of cinnamon sugar. That's a waste of money vs making it yourself. G. |

If it is too sugary and not enough cinnamon add more cinnamon. If it is too pungent and not sweet enough, add more sugar. Seems to me a couple years ago there was actually a thread here about how to make it. |

Mom always bought cinnamon sugar. I never did. One day I got a rare sweets craving and I wanted cinnamon toast. I had a jar of ground cinnamon from Penzey's. I had sugar. I blended the two until it tasted right. Cinnamon toast was just as tasty as I rememebered. :) I sealed the mixture in a container and stashed it away. I've had cinnamon toast a couple of times since that post. It's not something I want often. It was much better than the stuff Mom used to buy at the store. Jill |

But kind of small, no room for additional spices. And it really needs a door, light deteriorates spices. I'd have made it twice that size, and twice that depth. Make another one and attach it in front with hinges, and make a door. |

The fabric I have is similar to this- http://i1269.photobucket.com/albums/...ng80/94462.jpg I know it'll be more complicated than the shower curtain I made a few years ago-- http://www.flickr.com/photos/1552229...7639292360523/ I'm decent enough with the sewing machine once I get the darn thing threaded. --B |

But if you have a decent pull out cutlery drawer to sacrifice the plastic angled inserts are the best way to go, efficient and lots of storage. |

They strike me as very pragmatic and frugal and this fits in beautifully. It looks like what it is and is not trashy. Well Done! |
