15 Minute Junk Drawer Makeover!

Junk drawers and I have a love/hate relationship. When my husband and I moved in together it was a great debate as to whether or not we were even going to have one. In my opinion, I do not want to specify a place in our home for junk. Yet, time has revealed the ugly truth that everyone needs a space for all those odds and ends. The key is keeping it in a manageble state.



Lucky for us, there are great organizing products out there and I found this amazing drawer organizer at Bed, Bath, and Beyond for $9.99.



If you are on a budget, be creative by using household items as organizers. I have found that the cardboard Velveeta container is a great drawer organizer!

Get excited because you are 15 minutes away from having a beautifully organized drawer!

Step 1: Remove everything from drawer. 3 minutes.
Step 2: Throw away any trash. 2 minutes.
Step 3: Return misplaced items to their proper homes. 5 minutes.
Step 4: Group remaining items together in like groups. For example, all pens should be grouped together. 1 Minute.
Step 5: Neatly place items in drawer organizer assigning a group of items to each section. Example: the batteries should have their own section of the organizer, as should the pens, chip clips, and lighters. 4 minutes.

Enjoy!
