How to organise kitchen drawers
To further help you in your quest for well-organized kitchen drawers, here are some additional tips:
- Declutter first: before you head off to your local storage container store, it’s important to declutter your drawers and get rid of items you don’t use anymore.
- Categorise items: Organizse your items into categories to make them easier to find and sort. For instance, allocate one drawer for baking utensils, another for cutlery, and a separate one for cooking utensils.
- Use drawer dividers: Dividers help keep items separated and tidy, and they come in various shapes and sizes to accommodate different utensils and tools.
