52 Weeks of Organizing - Week 12

Dressers

Nightstand


This week I addressed the mess on our dressers and nightstands...Hmm...deja vu you say? Why yes, I did tackle this in a previous week. Here's the thing about clutter...it has a way of accumulating again if you don't stay on top of it. Please tell me I'm not the only one who has this problem. This is where piles tend to accumulate in our house, and it drives me crazy! When cleaning off our dressers I found three kleenex boxes. THREE! Why are they there? How did they get there? I do not know! I feel so much better now that the clutter is cleared off the surface. Thing is...we still have a problem. It's called junk drawers. Yep, a lot of that stuff ended up in the junk drawers. I hate junk drawers. They are driving me crazy. I could probably handle having 1 or 2 somewhat unorganized junk drawers, but 9 or 10?? Yipes! (and yes, yipes is a word.) I've got a lot of work to do. The good thing is that I'm almost done painting our 9 drawer dresser downstairs which will soon replace the 2 dressers currently in our bedroom. When the exchange happens, I'm determined to conquer junk drawers once and for all! For now, getting rid of surface clutter will have to do. Anyone else have a junk drawer problem like me? I think there is a reason why they call them junk drawers...probably because they contain mostly...junk.
