Do you have a "junk drawer"? And if so....

where is it?
We do, actually, we had 2Chat Icon One in the server I have in my kitchen, and one in a drawer of the cabinets. I hate having a junk drawer, to me, it's wasted space, but what do you do with all that stuff that you don't want to throw away, btu don't really need all the time?Chat Icon

I actually have two junk cabinets Chat Icon

They are oddly shaped because they are on the ends, and they really don't serve a purpose for anything. So I just throw random things in them.

Hmmm ... at least three in the kitchen area that is supposed to be a "desk".

One drawer is batteries, sewing kits, nuts, bolts, tape measure, etc

One drawer is take out menus/coupons, pens, scrap paper, etc.

Other drawer is DH's papers/bills/receipts, vet receipts & dogs meds.


I think there's also JUNK crammed into one shelf of the cabinet above the drawers and one shelf in the cabinet below the drawers ...


Sounds like a spring cleaning project to add to the list!! Chat Icon

One draw in my kitchen. I cleaned it out recently, so it's not too bad right now.

But I can't even think about our office. Chat Icon It's one big junk room right now. After we finish working on our Family Room that is our next project to organize, throw out and make files and shelves in that room. Chat Icon

Re: Do you have a "junk drawer"? And if so....

We have two, they're the top drawers in the island in our kitchen.
They have pens, pencils, envelopes, batteries, calculators,coupons,stamps, etc.
I did buy drawer organizers for them though, to keep them semi-neat and once every few months I go through them, throw things out and reorganize.

Re: Do you have a "junk drawer"? And if so....

I have one small junk drawer in the kitchen that hold scissors, pens/pencils/markers, tape business cards, calculator, some small tools, picture hangers/nails, etc. All of the other stuff that I don't use that often but I don't want to throw away I keep in a small plastic bin in my linen closet (I actually have several in my closet). It keeps me organized.

I have one in our bakers rack, it has pens, take menus, candles & lighters, glue, tape and a few other things. DH just cleaned recently.
I also "gave" DH a drawer in our island for a few basic tools & stuff even though he has a huge workshop in the basement

We have a junk room, a junk crawlspace and a junk garage.

I need one of those tv organizing people to come in and yell at me on national tv.

Re: Do you have a "junk drawer"? And if so....

We have two in the kitchen - one junk drawer - but it's very organized b/c DH goes in there a lot...

Then I have a secret one that he rarely goes in so it's truly a junk drawer - very un-organized and messy.

Oh - I have a third - my nightstand drawer (and the top of my nightstand). I'm a messy disgrace, what can I say?
