Sooo many individuals love these, they usually’re costly! Nonetheless I merely do not love how they carry out! I am contained in the strategy of switching out all my pantry containers from OXO to a particular model. I did a full video that you simply probably can watch correct proper right here.
I like that opening these usually is a one handed operation, they usually look good. This is what I do not love:
- The lids fall off so merely! I am unable to inform you what number of occasions I’ve dumped a container due to the lid slipped off. Nobody needs to cope with a flooring lined in flour!!!
- They are not hermetic. The seals merely aren’t very protected. It may not examine in the least to a Tupperware seal. This is not an infinite deal for some factors like flour or sugar, nonetheless inside the event you are trying to maintain crackers present, it is a no-go!
2. Spice Jars
Spice jars which might be all the equal look completely attractive! We not too method again re-did my mother’s spice drawer, and it actually appears good. Nonetheless in observe, it is merely not as magical as we had hoped. This is what we aren’t loving:

- It takes up way more room laying down. You presumably can see them simpler, nonetheless it takes up a whole drawer now.
- Decanting has been an issue. They’re all in cute matching jars, nonetheless as quickly as we transferred the spices from their real containers, we had barely bit left over correct proper right here and there. What is going on to we do with this? Throw it out? Retailer it some place else? Then there are twice as many containers. That principally simply is not remaining!
Full that is nonetheless cute and arranged, nonetheless it merely labored rather a lot a lot much less splendidly than we anticipated.

Minimalism in thought may be good. It encourages folks to suppose prior to they purchase, to declutter and keep on with rather a lot a lot much less…nonetheless there’s furthermore a darkish facet. Normally it comes with arbitrary ideas, such as you’ll solely have as many plates as there are folks in your loved ones members. Or every child can solely have 5 outfits. It turns proper right into a contest to see how little we will have.
Nonetheless this would possibly merely get barely foolish. For instance, I am going to do the equal quantity of laundry it doesn’t matter what number of outfits my children have. Within the occasion that they’ve rather a lot a lot much less, it should in all probability merely point out I’ve to do it additional continuously. In all probability you want this motivation to do laundry day-to-day, nonetheless I personally like having the choice to not do laundry if we’re sick or on journey or simply loopy busy.

You are furthermore not supposed to hold one factor on them for twenty-four hours. Who truly waits?!? One time we hung an infinite canvas on our wall. It crashed down loads of months later…in order that’s me. I am the one who would not regulate to instructions!
