She Dumps Marbles Into A Clear Baking Pan. The Reason? GENIUS!

What makes a kitchen great is not so much about the space but how you organize it. So why not make your kitchen more functional and fabulous?

One of my favorite projects is the DIY Lazy Susan. Not only does it take less than a minute to make, it helps organize all my spices in one place. Since telling my family about this idea, they’ve all created their own Lazy Susans at home and swear by it.

One of my favorite DIY projects is the $3 Lazy Susan. Not only does it take less than a minute to make, it helps organize all my spices in one place.

To make this kitchen organizer, buy two 9" x 1.2" glass bakeware pie pans and a 300-count bag of marbles. I prefer using the glass pie plates because you can see the colorful marbles, but silver 8-inch round baking pans work just as well, too. (Helpful tip: I always go to eBay for all my DIY shopping needs.)

To start, I bought two 9'' x 1.2'' glass bakeware pie pans and a bag of marbles.

For this instance, I used two different colors of marbles, which truly make this a beautiful, one-of-a-kind piece.

Move the marbles around in the pan to create an even surface.

Place the second pan on top of the marbles and fill it with your favorite spices.

As you can see in the images below, the marbles let the pan spin smoothly.
