Junk Drawer Clean-Out! Giveaway!

I was recently given the opportunity to review the new Rubbermaid “No Slip Interlocking Drawer Organizers.”  I love organizing  products, so I was eager to try these out.

Most of us have “junk drawers,” a place to throw all those important or maybe not so important things that don’t have another home. I have two of them in my laundry that have long been in need of a clean-out.

 

 

 

 

First I emptied them out and wiped out the drawers. Then  I put in the drawer organizers. Since my drawers are narrow, I put one in the second drawer with some small boxes—I need another Rubbermaid set! I like these boxes because they interlock so they won’t slide apart in the drawer.

Then I started sorting. I really thought I knew what was in these drawers, but I found some surprises. There were some items that I could not begin to identify! And do I really need 20+ old refrigerator magnets?  If they aren’t nice enough to have on the fridge now, then why am I storing them? How about an outlet cover with one prong broken off? My youngest child is 9!  After pitching all the trash, I sorted what was left back into the drawers. Doesn’t this look better????
