Well, depending on how nice you want the bottles to be, you can buy from places like Penzey's or other stores which sell kitchen goods. They might be cheaper at restaurant-supply houses (or not available at all since those bottles are way too small for restaurant use). Or you could try organizing stores (like "Hold It" if they're still around) or odd places like Overstock.com or dollar stores.

Or perhaps you could find a "cheap" spice rack with the spice bottles and use those at a place such as Ross or Big Lots. I purchased one spice bottle recently at K-Mart that I put salt in. I like it because the mouth is big enough to put a measuring spoon in and the top stays closed until you press on it to open the shaker. But it was $2.00 or $3.00 each. I might buy a few more for those spices I use all the time.

I was so fortunate to find these on clearance (.50 each) already filled with a spice. I'm sure that if you are on the look out, something will come up. How about the various websites for bottles like the link below?

Here is a link that might be useful: Specialty Bottles

Thanks for the link mustangs--your drawer looks great. I like the bottles like yours without big labels that obscure the contents.

Hey you Mustangs! You bought those at the link you posted?? I couldn't find them.

Shaun-Hey you, whatcha doin' here??

No, I didn't get them from the website. I was saying just look around and something will pop-up somewhere. Actually I got them at supermarket in Italy. As I said, they were filled with spice (I never figured out what spice). So I wouldn't get stopped in customs or security with a "strange substance", I emptied the spice out of each bottle and carried 36 empty bottles on the plane--which they thought was equally as strange. They did take my rock from the Coliseum-what was I thinking??

BTW, I'm coming to see you in February.

You ARE???????? Yay!!!!

Would parchment paper (like for baking sheets) work better than waxed paper?

No ideas from me on your spice bottles... I don't even have matching salt & pepper shakers! LOL

Julie--that's funny. I don't think parchment paper would work any better than waxed paper because you probably go in and out of the drawer too much. I do use waxed paper to line plant ledges where things aren't moved often. It keeps the painted surface clean and I just change the paper periodically and throw out all the dust that collected.

OK, what about white freezer paper? Can you still buy that at the grocery? It's coated on one side and thicker than waxed paper or parchment paper.
