Inspiration Friday Rolling Pins

So... continuing our Inspiration Friday along the lines of baking...

Lets talk rolling pins.

Without a doubt, I do most of my baking in the fall. Any wonder I regularly gain weight at this time of year? I know you get that... its a natural nesting instinct, right? Cool weather, more time indoors, a high need for coziness...

I dont have a rolling pin collection or anything, but I do have a few different pins... a french rolling pin, a standard pin (where did that one go?), a couple of smaller rolling pins, and a... hmmm... I dont know what to call it. A tortilla pin? Basically its a 1" dowel rod that I mostly use to beat bags of ice when Im having a get together. Its seen better days, for sure.

For a while, this smattering of pins has been stashed in a drawer under my baking center, but frankly, it isnt working that well for me. When I designed the house and kitchen 10 years ago, my intent was to have a "baking center" with everything easy to access and several regular baking items hanging, at the ready.

Yeah... that didnt happen. Life. Priorities.

Onward and forward...

Im reworking that space now and looking for the best way to "display" my pins on the side of the cabinet that surrounds the baking space. Whatever did we do before Pinterest?

So, how can one display these humble wooden cylinders of flakey pie crust fame? Let me count the ways...

You know... rolling pins are really other objects in disguise...

Just curious... how do you store your rolling pins?
