TikTok user @honeys.mama shared a DIY herb hanging rack idea that has inspired many. She uses square wooden dowels nailed and tied together in a grid pattern, adds cup hooks, and suspends the rack from the ceiling for easy herb storage. The best part is that this storage solution can be customized to fit any space.
Other herb storage rack ideas
If your kitchen already has a rail for hanging pots and pans, you can simply attach a double-sided metal hook to hang a bundle of herbs. This not only saves space but also adds a charming touch to your kitchen decor. Additionally, you can install rows of dowels on the ceiling for herb storage or suspend a net for drying herbs.
Ways to style your herb drying rack
For a natural display, consider suspending thick dried sticks or reclaimed wood from the ceiling. You can secure the display to the ceiling or a wall for stability. Matching the twine you use to tie the herbs to the overall aesthetic of your space can enhance the rustic appeal of your herb drying rack. Experiment with different colors and materials to create a unique and visually appealing herb display.
