Things are getting spicy over here! Okay, not really but this old spice rack got an update. Not too bad in her ‘day’, but looking a tad wimpy by today’s standards. Who am I kidding, it’s just a spice rack. Standards = none.

Behold, le spice rack before…
Pretty nice random bottles don’t you think?  No, me neither. Funny thing is that we had all the bottles that matched but for some reason I started putting them aside to clean and freshen up the contents and the rack sort of morphed into this er… ah, ‘eclectic’ collection.
Exhit A (well, I guess really it’s exhibit B) … old, peeling dirty labels. I mean, not to judge but… eeewh.
A good cleaning of the rack and a few coats of good ol’ Oil Rubbed Bronze and we were on our way! 
The labels got some major lovin’ too as well as all the jars getting a thourough clean and top up.
This was a super fast makeover and I think it makes a BIG impression. It’s like a whole new spice rack! How did it look in the end? Well, just check out my rack. (yup, was totally waiting to say that).
Before:
After!
Admit it. I have a nice rack.
Here is a closer look at the finish. I love how ‘oil rubbed bronze’ has that shimmery undertone. Fancy Shmancy. 
I have a fancy shmancy rack.
Have you oil rubbed anything lately? Spiced anything up? Made a bad joke about how fancy your rack is? Please tell me I’m not the only one ;).
