Reader Organizing Tip
This drawer organizing idea, from a GON reader, is a cinch
I found a wonderful way to organize my drawers at home. Yes, I could go out and buy organizers,
but why spend the money if you already have everything you need to make one…and if it’s so
easy to do so?
First thing I did was measure my drawer. then I cut a piece of gift wrap to that size and laid it on
the bottom of the drawer. To secure it, I just added a few small pieces of double-sided tape.
I then cut two cardboard pieces for dividers…one will have to be cut for the length of your
drawer…and the other for the depth. Both have to be cut for drawer height. For instance, if your
drawer is 5 inches tall, the divider should be about 4 ½ inches. Cut notches in the center of each
cardboard piece and slot them together.
Then, neatly fold or roll the items in your new drawer compartments!
