You probably already know that Rubbermaid makes great products for the kitchen.  I especially love their Easy Find Lids and my new favorite is their junk drawer organizing system.   I decided to test it out in my husband’s desk drawer and installed it on May 10th…then I checked back to see what it looked like on July 8th.

Take a look at the progression of our mini-project.  The before and after photos really tell the story. If you’re brave enough, I’d love to know what your junk drawer looks like.  Leave a comment and post your pic. =)


Step 1 – Open the Rubbermaid package & make sure the system will fit in the drawer…or select the pieces to be used


Step 2 – Open junk drawer, take everything out, and sort/purge/categorize



Step 3 – Decide where to put everything


Step 4 – Check back in 2 months (or minimum of 21 days) to see if the system is working

    I love this. Sometimes a desk drawer revamp is all that’s needed to add some zing to the desk-life. You’ve inspired me to take a picture of my junk drawer (in the kitchen).

    I have a horrible desk, relatively unsuitable for my needs, with only one drawer. However, it keeps me from collecting anything unnecessary on/in my desk.

    It’s interesting that having a smaller space can either make it harder or easier to stay organized. Can’t wait to see your pic, Julie. =)
