My wife says every family has this drawer. I do not believe every family has this drawer. Do you have this drawer? Do you know a good solution to this drawer?

We have a silverware drawer, organized, maxed out. A sharps drawer, organized, maxed out. Ziplocs, organized, maxed out. Bbq tools and oven mitts, organized, maxed out. But all this shit has no particular category so fuck me right. I gotta have an awkward necessary crap drawer. Maybe I should post all my drawers and crowdsource me some sense into my kitchen.

    Consider a spring loaded drawer divider. Keeping everything from sloshing around can make a surprising amount of space.

    Drawer with dividers

    My drawer in the image used to be a nightmare. Everything used to move around and it would jam when opening sometimes. Adding dividers got it organized enough to leave a third of it free, which is now the rightmost section that’s filled with tea.

    It’s been over a year and I still feel a small sense of joy when I open it sometimes. There’s still messes of junk in the back left and right, but they stay put.
