These processes also teach you how to create simple routines and cleaning schedules which allow you to naturally maintain your clean and organized home.

Then you can take this process and go throughout all the rooms in your home–including the bathrooms, kitchen, craft room, home office, basement, entryway, playroom, garage, attic, and all other rooms in your home–cleaning and organizing.
- Clean out and organize not just the rooms themselves, but organization spaces such as closets, shelves, drawers, and bookshelves.
- Learn how to properly use organization equipment, such as bins, drawer organizers, storage bins, food storage containers, lids, and baskets.
The Private Balanced Home Community
(BONUS – Priceless). Provides a community that you can go to whenever you need a place where you…
- Seek inspiration and ideas from others
- Receive support and motivation from others
- Share your successes and see the successes of others as we all work towards finding balance and clarity in our homes.
- Can ask questions and let me know what you may still need help with so that I can continue to cater the course to your needs
What Do People Have To Say About My Organization Course?
“This course was instrumental in helping me organize my space as well as my time. As a busy mom, I have a better grasp on what my days need to include so that I can enjoy my family rather than spend my time spinning my wheels cleaning up after everyone.”
“The Balanced Home Course helped me to be the “professional organizer” for my family! Simple steps to follow, check lists, printable labels, suggestions and worksheets will keep you on track to successfully maintain your own balanced home.”
“I am pretty sure I have solved more issues with the seven layers and clarity tool than I have in 6 months of therapy!! I think this course is going to help much more than my home. Thanks Amy!!!!”
When I realized I had been overcomplicating the idea of organization, that simplifying was a key component, then things really started to fall into place!”

Thank you for this printable…just what I needed for the cabin.
Thanks for sharing
You are so welcome Teresa!
Thank you…. my husband seems to think I should be able to know what our spices our without labels… um sorry, not I. lol So cute and so needed! :)
haha! Pretty labels are more than just pretty…they are helpful too haha! I would never be able to figure out what the spices were by looking at them either.
*are not our
Thank you so much for this idea, I had a blonde moment and read the spice jar’s wrong & thought you just bought the jars & then filled them. lol I found just jar’s that I really liked, your way is a lot cheaper. Thanks again for all your work and for sharing it with us. Happy Crafting!!!!
ha! You are so sweet! We go through quite a bit with a large family…so we have to buy in bulk! You are so welcome!
I am your fan on FB but keep getting the message Page Not Found. I can’t figure out what I am doing wrong!
You might have to refresh the link. It will give you an error sometimes and simply refreshing can fix it. I am not sure why.
I’m not on facebook. Can I still download the printables?
I am sorry. I am just running them through FB.
How cute is that…I love this idea…thank you so much for the printable…I think I will down load them and keep them until I can get a crate,…because I want one of these for my new kitchen…again…thank you so much….
You are so welcome! I am glad you like them. Yes. Get them now. Sorry for the inconvenience.
.
I ‘liked’ but never saw the free gift or previous downloads and am getting the same message as Betty. I went to your store see if I missed the limited time but didn’t see them there either. I would.like to download these if possible. Thanks
Sometimes you need to just refresh the page. If there is a lot of traffic it will time out for some reason. Let me know if you still need help.
The note on this site says they were only in the store now. I wish they had taken the free tag off. I do not use my credit card on internet sites. I’ve wasted a lot of time.
Thank you for the cute labels. Did you use a punch to cut them out? If so, what size?
Oh yes! I forgot to mention that. Thanks for asking. I did punch them all out with a 1.5 inch circle paper punch. You can find them in the scrapbook aisle of your craft store.
This would have been very nice to know before I ruined 4 sheets of 1 1/2 ” circle stickers. I love the labels and I think your price is fair, however, maybe you should let people know that
1. they will not receive them after they buy them until you physically send them to their email address (most places will direct you to a link where you can download them immediately upon payment).
2. And that they should be punched out after being printed on a full sheet sticker page. :(
again, I truly do love all your awesome ideas, and pintable’s, just a little disappointed in this transaction.
Lori
Dont purchase anything from amazon, then… They make you wait for deliveries. Days.
#1 rule re printing on prepunched stickers or printing on color tab t of c sheets: check size file will print out beforehand by printing on a plain sheet of of #20 paper. First. That one piece of 20 weight costs about 1/10 of one cent.
#1 rule about not having enough info: Ask. Before leaping.
#1 rule about crafts: if they go wrong, it’s usually operator error from bypassing reasonable pre-tests, not prepping as needed, not asking precise questions of those in the know.
All these cut way down on ‘ruining’ anything.
How cute! – Lily
Thank you Lily!
Thank you for this idea! I have an old coca-cola crate I love and was not currently using (and sad about). Plus I have always liked the Target spice bottles too! I had even searched on Pinterest ideas for using the crate. It always makes it out for table decor at parties (it once held individual desserts at a western themed baby shower). Keep the ideas flowing. We appreciate them.
Thank you so much Geri! I love sharing too…so it is a win/win. Glad to give you another use for your crate! Thanks so much for the sweet comment!
Looks great! I could have totally used those labels when I first made my coke crates into spice racks, haha! I had good intentions, I MEANT to make labels, eventually… but for (way too long) a while the sharpie was my only organization tool. The Jars I was using I had purchased in bulk online, and then one day in the store I realized that my jars matched the Morton & Basset jars from the store, and they were labeled! So now I’m committed to swapping out for those.
Yours, are way cuter. Here’s my post from a few years ago (http://ninered.blogspot.com/2010/04/spice-rack-update.html) which was in our last house, and pretty bad photography, haha..
Always keep an eye out for those crates! They are so handy.
haha! Sharpies are one of my favorite tools! Now you can print out some labels to replace the sharpie! Wish I would have seen yours two years ago! LOVE these crates. I need one more!
I LOVE these!
Thanks so much @Jessica!
TU for these! I spent 1/2 day looking for spice labels that were pre-printed (I HATE my messy writing) and gave up. I have jars bought and now I can move on it. I’m so sorry to hear dishonesty making more work for you, I appreciate you sharing very much!
Thank you Heather! It’s not really about the extra work…just wish people would be honest. Thank you so much for the sweet comment. I don’t love my handwriting either!
Can I just say how shocked I am that someone would take you free printable and sell it??? Can I suggest putting some identifying and/or copyright information on every download you offer and locking the pdf file so it is not editable? That might help.
I know right?! I do put my copyright on them. I will look into locking them. Thank you for your suggestions! xo
What an awesome idea!! Love it!!
Thanks Crystal!
How many ounces are the bottles? 4oz, 8oz or 16oz bottles?
The ounces are all different depending on the spice in them. So I measured the bottles and they are 4.5 inches in height and about 2 inches in width. Hope that helps!
Love this idea so much I just went on ebay and bought a dr pepper soda crate!
Oh fun! I am so glad you love it and found one!!
Did I miss something… the free labels printables are now listed on Facebook for $3.00. :(
I am starting to place my more involved printables in my shop after making them available for free after a few days due to people mis-using them and selling them in their own shops. They were free for 5 days before I moved them over.
I so LOVE this idea! I ordered the spice jars, printed the labels…then my husband stole my sparkle by asking if I was sure the paint on the crate was lead free. Any idea if the soda crates are food safe/lead-free? I was thinking I could seal the paint somehow to be on the safe side, but since it’s going to be in my kitchen around food, well ya know…
haha! That is a great question though…I didn’t think about that. I have a paint testing kit from 3M (you can get them at your local hardware store) and so I just tested mine and it was fine. But good idea to check! Thanks for sharing that…my sparkle is back ;)
If I pay and download the spice jar circles, can I edit them to change them if they are not what I need?
Thanks.
You can edit them in your own photoshop program. They are sent as a PDF.
Amy, you are absolutely my favorite person to follow. And the only one I follow regularly. I am so sorry to heat about people selling your ideas. I hope this new idea works because I would hate to see you stop. :(
What a sweet comment! Thank you Deborah! I really appreciate that! I love to share and create so I imagine I will be at it for sometime! Thanks for your support. It really means a lot to me! xo
Wow that was so very sweet of Deborah to say! And she is right, you are awesome at what you do and your talent and creativity show in everything you post! We all truly appreciate your work and the privilege you give to everyone for a limited time of enjoying your work for free! The comments/complaints on here that are anything less than mine, or Deborah’s, or anyone else’s sweet and respectful compliments, are just plain sad, and I feel embarrassed for them as I read them. To take the time to complain about how much time they wasted because there was still a “free tag” on them, or how they wasted 4 sheets of sticker paper before they knew what size they were….. I’m honestly just speechless! Who knew that along with raising your 5 children, you’d also be a free babysitter, teacher, guidance counselor, and anything else these people seem to require to maneuver throughout your site! Have they forgotten that the mere convenience factor of never having to leave their homes to purchase such adorable items like yours, should really outweigh any sort of “negative experience” they might have had that they feel compelled to inform you of? Because it seems to me that In the amount of their “Time- Wasted” that it took them to write their post on here, they could’ve probably gone out and bought them from somewhere in less time! Sad, just sad. Well, you keep kickin butt on here cause you were meant to do this! And its sad but true that you cant please everyone! However, it just goes to show that “The people that mind don’t matter, and the people that matter don’t mind!” <—- one of my favorite quotes, and sooooo perfectly fitting too! ;) xoXO
Thank you for your kind words!
I love this idea and have already found a coca cola crate to use! I’m happy to pay for the labels as I know they are a lot of work (thanks!!), but is there a way to know which labels are included? Also, is it formatted to fit on avery labels or do you have to cut them out? I went to the store, but I didn’t see any additional information.
Thanks again for doing this! I’m excited to set up my new spice rack:)
I just added a list of the labels that are included! I should have done that to begin with! Thanks for the nudge!!
darn found this too late.
:)
Hi Amy! Your organized spices are so beautiful! You have inspired me! I plan to revamp my spice storage now, and would like to use the same bottles that you did. I have been looking for the french square bottles with aluminum lids, but only am finding black or white lids. Could you please tell me where you purchased these? Thank you so much!
Target!! ;)
These are exactly what I’ve been looking for! After I purchase and get your email, do I just purchase white sticker paper and the black area is what prints?
I don’t have a printer so don’t know how this works.
Or can I just buy these already printed out somewhere?
Thank you
wow I was too late. Moving and wanted these to update my kitchen
Amy,
I love your spice rack repurposed from a Dr Pepper crate! It looks perfect in your kitchen. Thanks for the inspiration.

Hi there! I love these labels. I purchased them in January. I am trying to add my own labels to the blank ones. I would like to match the fonts. Can you tell me which ones you used. I am not the bests with Photoshop and can’t see what fonts are used. I just want them all to be matching. I know, silly. :-)
Someone please help!! Where did you find the square jars? I’ve looked everywhere online and can’t seem to find any that matches the pictures. PLEASE HELP!!
I had been slowly buying my new spices in these cute spice jars from Target. They are in the spice aisle and the Archer Farms brand. The jars fit perfectly.
Darn it!! I just saw this so I missed the opportunity to get them for free ?
Darn. They are inexpensive to buy though. Thanks.
Love it!
Thank you for taking the time to create these and share them!
You are welcome!
Thanks for creating and sharing these!
You are welcome! Enjoy!
Did you paint your crate?! If so what color?! The crates I see is a very light wooden color – love the dark wooden look yours give!
No, but you definitely could.
Amy all your labels are beautiful and match my industrial pantry perfectly. I have all the downloads so far and bought the herb jar labels from your shop. I need a few extra jar labels and happy to pay for them as I live in Australia. I will send you some pictures once my walk in butlers pantry is finished. Just spent 4 days tiling with bevelled subway tiles and grouting forever and ever.
The glass jar labels I need are breadcrumbs, cocoa pops,
semolina, slivered almonds, spaghetti and Salada. Thank you and bad form to those who on sell Amy’s work you should be ashamed.
Thank you so much. Glad you are able to find the labels useful!
I’m getting sick of this bait and switch crap on Pinterest. “Hey, come get these FREE printables” Oh, too late, you gotta pay for them! Bunch of BS!
Sorry, others take advantage and ruin it for everyone else.
Well at least there is an option “Nunya Beeswax”,
which is to just stop looking for free stuff…..either that, or just get there on time! A lot of us didn’t make it in time, but we also didn’t blame anyone else for our mistake either….just sayin….
P.S. You do realize that this is a public site and everyone can read what you say on here, right? Just makin sure….
Love! Do you print on sticker paper? Is that onto a Martha Stewart label sheet? How do you print white letters onto black? Or is it just paper that you laminate onto the jars? Please advise…
You can print on Avery labels or just cut out and glue with an Elmers Glue Stick. You make a black background circle then add the white lettering on top. Hope this helps. Thanks.
I love these labels….but after 1 week my Avery brand stickers are peeling up…Eek! Has anyone had this issue?
Do you think I can paint a clear coat of nail polish of them to keep them down?
Thanks!
You could also try Modge Podge. Sorry, that is so frustrating!
Can someone give me an idea where to buy the empty jars? I have the crate and the labels…now I just need good jars.
Rocelia- Maybe you could just get some off of amazon. I just peeled off the label on some that I bought from Target.
Your printable labels are cute! Any ideas of where I could get a similar sized jar holder? Not sure if there are actual wooden racks that will perfectly fit that size jars.
Linette- You may be able to find one at a craft store. I will have to look around when I am out and about.
Just found your site. Love these printables and your cutting board! Did you embellish the cutting board as well? Tutorial on the cutting board?
Miss T- Yes, I did embellish the cutting board. Here is the link: https://www.theidearoom.net/diy-typography-cutting-board/
Thank you so much! I’ve been wanting to organize my spices forever.
Becca- So happy you found these helpful!
What would I do without labels?! I have them on everything, especially spices! There are too many that look alike!
Kristyn- Me too. I love labels!
These spice labels are such a great idea to keep the kitchen organized and add a touch of beauty to spice jars. I love how you repurposed the antique Dr. Pepper crate into a spice rack – it’s a creative and stylish solution. The printable spice labels look fantastic and seem to be durable too. Have you found that the labels adhere well to the jars? Also, it’s smart to buy spices in bulk and refill the smaller jars when needed. Thank you for sharing the list of printable spice labels included in the set.
Do you have any tips on the best way to print and attach the labels? I’m excited to give this a try in my own kitchen!
I just printed the labels out with my home computer and attached them with a glue stick. You can even laminate the labels.
Looks like maybe the spice jar link is out of date. Can you tell me what size spice jars fit in the crate? I have several. Love this!
Tammy- Here is a link to a jar that would be similar: https://www.amazon.com/Aozita-Glass-Spice-Jars-Labels/dp/B082HV2PJM?ref_=ast_sto_dp&th=1&psc=1
