We’re going to finish the week strong! Let’s organize one messy or disorganized drawer in our home. This could be your junk drawer or another space that collects clutter. It’s so satisfying and the visual impact will most definitely “spark joy.” This will probably not take you more than 15 minutes.
Pick any drawer in your home – try to make it a drawer you use regularly.
Step 1: Take Everything Out
And while everything is out, take a minute to wipe out the entire drawer.
Step 2: Divide Into Categories
Sort like with like. Once you’ve done this you can assess whether any items in the drawer can be discarded, donated, or stored elsewhere. As always, be ruthless. The less you store, the easier it is to get and stay organized.
Step 3: Measure and Divide
If you don’t have individual inserts or a drawer divider, you can measure the drawer and figure out how many and the size of dividers you need to contain your individual categories. Here are some dividers we like:
Utoplike 4 Pack Bamboo Kitchen Drawer Adjustable Organizers
Kootek Desk Drawer Organizer Trays with 3-Size Drawer Dividers – 12
Simhoo Bamboo Stackable Drawer Organizers
Step 4: Put Everything Back
And voila! You’re going to really enjoy this accomplishment. Snap and picture and share it with us!
And this weekend…just relax. No projects from Neatnik. Take some time to absorb our new environment and rest. We’ll start again next week!
