I'm wondering if they are small enough to be spice jars. We are going to grind our own spices.

They are a little larger than the 8oz (1 cup) ball jelly jars. I do use them for spices as I usually buy in bulk.

This size might be a little big for that, although I guess it depends how much you are grinding. I used them to give away homemade hot cocoa for Christmas and the amount of cocoa I got into each one is probably a little more than 2 cups ( I didn't measure, just a guess) of powered ingredients. I'm pretty sure they were sold in 4oz and 6oz sizes those might be better for spices. They are really pretty jars, nice quality, and the cover screws on tightly. I was pleased with them.

These are 8 oz jars. While they are cute, they do hold a good amount. Certainly wider than normal spice containers.

If you're going to make a lot, sure. They will hold about twice the usual amount of a spice found in a small bottle of, say, McCormick. Hope this helps. Great idea!

It depends on the size of the spice jar. these -"Qty 20 - 1 Oz Plastic Spice Jars with Sifter and Cap"- on amazon will fit 40, but if you use a 2-4 oz McCormicks or other spice, it will take up two spaces. Hope that helps.It has been a Godsend, as I have way more spices than most and little room.It isn't fancy looking but it does the job.

Yes, I have them on pint-size and half-gallon size jars, as well. Be careful, though, because I learned a lesson that there are different sizes of mouths on the jars--some I think are considered wide-mouthed jars. Just make sure you measure the width of the opening to make sure the lids will fit. I have mine sitting on a table but I think you could definitely hang them from a branch.

Yes, they are. They are very very nice jars. I will be ordering more. Hope this helps.

I'm not sure ? Mason jars seem a lit'l larger. These are fine for jam/caramel sauce /spiced nuts and as the other review said "spiced bourbon" :)The lids are one piece easy and pretty.

Hi, I think it could grind spices, but it would also depend on the amount of spices you want to grind. Even though the container is not that big, you might need good portion of spices for it to work. Hopefully this will help.

They might be. We mainly use them for Kosher salt, which has larger crystals, and spices that don't pour out quickly.

I would say no to that. Jars are small, which might be good for a one use jar, but otherwise, no.

I don't know, but it is doubtful. I am not familiar with the spice rack, but the jars are much wider in diameter than regular spice jars.

i think it would be fine. i have some in there. it doesn't get dusty for me. i doubt they would lose flavor either. they are just spices.

imo the tops ie. lids do not fit tightly enough to keep them fresh but they would be fine to use if you are growing your own and use the spices quickly or to give as small gifts

I know they are the correct size for the unmarked jars my wife has. Those are generic wire bale canister jars. It was a tight fit but they work fine. Use a micrometer to find the diameter and these were about a quarter inch smaller than the jars, but work find and seal properly.

The jars are have approximately 3" tall by 1 1/2" diameter of space inside jar. Can't give you an ounce estimate since spices are each different.

No grinding spices unless they were small and hard (like pepper). Nothing 1 or 2 inches would make it inside the grinding opening. The beans have to make several turns before they drop into the grinding area. Great for coffee beans and it would work for peppercorns but I don't see how it could work for something like cinnamon or nutmeg.

We have the two tier version of this and each tier can hold 7 regular sized spice jars or 8 small size spice jars. Hope that helps.

I personally have not used it for spices. But you can vary the grind size to our choice so I don't see why not

Hi. They are too large for your dimensions and work best in a cupboard or pantry. Brown sugar and powdered sugar measure just under 6" and the spice (smallest one) is just under 4". They are great otherwise.
