Basket case!

Posted by Tina
In true Org Junkie-style, I decluttered a couple of my kitchen drawers today and replaced the items that are MEANT to be there in little (pink, of course!) baskets. Before:

Seriously, do we really need that many can/bottle coolers and sippy cups? I purged a few things and the end result is this:

So then, while I was on a roll, I did the next drawer up which is home to my kitchen gadgety-things. Before:

I need to buy a new set of measuring cups because I noticed that there are some missing (no point in asking the babes because it was probably the measuring cup thief, ya know?) and a new grater and I need to do something different with my cookie cutters (adding this to my to-do list).

After:

Two drawers to go but I need to buy some more baskets to finish those.

    :((( I thought you got a beautiful porcelain jug for your birthday for measuring - if you need actual separate ones I can get them from “my lady”

    I’m such a dummy!
    I’m only just organising all my new stuff into my kitchen today and realised that I don’t need separate measuring cups.
    Did I tell you how much I’m LOVING my pink stuff?! You’ll have to come and see!

    What a great idea! My daughter’s sippy collection is out of control. I stack them, lids on top, and they always fall over when I shut the drawer. I’m heading out soon to use your ideas. Thanks!

  7. Jen Said,

    Just a suggestion if you haven’t already solved your cookie cutter clutter maybe you could try one of those big metal rings (stationary/craft dept usually i think) that unhook and thread them all on. Your draws look sooo pretty i’m inspired to start working on mine. Slowly working my way through the house :-)
