Weekend Project: Clean Out a Junk Drawer

Like any organizing project, you’re going to want to make sure you’ve got a goal, a willingness to re-home or get rid of things that shouldn’t be in the junk drawer and some cleaning supplies to make that spot fresh. It’s not a big job, but carve out a little bit of time to clean out and reorganize a junk drawer (or if you’re being ambitious, a junk drawer or two) and enjoy finding items you need quicker and easier!
