Want a Jammin’ Junk Drawer?  I’ve been reading a lot of blog postings about junk drawers lately.

I think this because it’s a quick and easy project for those who have resolved to become more organized in the new year.

One reason why your junk drawer is an easy project is that there are many different products available to customize your drawers and make them work for you.

I love these Clear Drawer Organizers.

Clear Drawer OrganizersThese drawer organizers can be used all over your house. We often use them in the bathroom and kitchen drawers. We like that you can configure each set to fit perfectly into your space.

Have you tried these two-tiered drawer organizers?

Another great idea is these Bamboo Expandable Drawer Organizers!

Bamboo Expandable Drawer OrganizersIf you want to customize a drawer so each member of your family has a space to drop their stuff, try these expandable drawer organizers.

They say it’s for utensils, but why not use it for a junk drawer?

It stretches to fit the space and offers large sections for keys, cell phones, sunglasses, and wallets.

It would be great to use in a drawer in your entry, so everyone can drop their items as they enter the house.

If you can’t find an organizer to accommodate your drawer space, try these Adjustable Drawer Dividers.

It allows you to truly customize your drawer for whatever you need.

Use scissors to easily cut out the size suitable for your specific drawer size.  You can make the sizes you need. Perfect!

Before you go to the store, plan the right option for your specific needs.

Measure your drawers and note the types of items you want to store inside. You really don’t want to be standing in the aisle of the store trying to figure out what will work and what won’t!

For the frugal organizer, can use small jewelry gift boxes or cut-down tissue boxes, or cereal boxes. The cardboard version won’t last as long, but they’re free!

Try this quick organizing project! It will give you the confidence you need to try it in other places throughout your home.

Have fun and enjoy your jammin’ junk drawer!
