Yes! More organization is underway!

These two drawers have been a thorn in my side for years.

I've tried to organize them, but in no time at all they would look like this again!

This is not working for me!

The best thing that works for me is what I did in my office drawer.  It was one of my first posts.  

It went nuts on Pinterest and it still gets the most hits on the ole blog!

Messy Desk Dilemma

I LOVE this organizer!  It still looks this good.  Everything has it's own spot!

So, I figured, that was the best way to go, because it stays organized!

These drawers are jam packed!

This is the same drawer, I've just gotten to the next level of crap.

The other drawer isn't much better.

There is a utensil tray in there, but as you can see it's buried! See, I was trying.

So, the drawers got dumped, a lot of it went in the trash, and some went to the office.

Then I had to decide what I actually wanted to keep in them.

Not much, but those items in the drawer are the things that I'm using the most, and I'm tired of them being on TOP of the desk!

Can you see all those boxes in the background?  That's what I'm going to use to organize these drawers.  I've been saving them for quite awhile.

  

I already did a completely thorough tutorial on how to cut and cover the boxes in my Messy Desk post. You can hop over there and see for yourself!. 

Here's the process I go through. Once I figure out what I want in each drawer, I try to organize it in the boxes and see how it fits in the drawer.

This just makes me feel calmer...

Now the fun part!!

Time for Mod Podge... Love that stuff!! 

Check out this paper!! Gorgeous, right? It's gift wrap that I found on sale.  Awesome!! And I've had this roll foreevvveerrr! I was saving it for a project just like this!

Ahhh!!! I am sooo LOVING this!!!

Jealous, aren't you....  :)

I know it doesn't really matter what they look like, the drawers are kept closed, but these so pretty!!

Now, it's time to fill them up.

Don't they look great?

I know they will stay looking this good!

Yes, it's a little time consuming, but SOOO worth it! Plus it's practically free!!

Here are a few other organizing projects I've done using the same method!

Let's get organized!!
