Organize deep drawers for maximum efficiency.
- Fill deep bedroom drawers with large, bulky items such as sweaters or blankets.
- Use a drawer divider to corral smaller items. Most home stores have basic drawer inserts. Look for a drawer divider with spaces for your specific needs, whether you want to organize socks, jewelry or office supplies.
- Place plastic-lidded bins in the drawer for removable storage. Sort items according to function, season, size, color or other useful groupings, and label the bins. Store items of one type in the same drawer.
- Use a deep kitchen drawer to store rolls of paper towels, large platters, long boxes of aluminum foil or waxed paper, and other oversized items.
- Place stackable trays in a deep office drawer to organize paper products.
