After I cleaned and organized my craft room last week, I decided it was time to tackle my messy and disorganized drawers. Not only have I been organizing all of my drawers, but I designed and made special DIY drawer dividers that fit perfectly together into my IKEA Alex drawers! These drawer organizers are AMAZING!

HOW TO ORGANIZE YOUR DRAWERS
Step A: Purge - Take everything out of your drawer and spread it out on a flat surface nearby. Discard or recycle any trash, anything outdated, anything broken, anything you haven't used in six months (and truly don't expect to use soon), and anything you no longer want.
Step B: Assess - Looking at what's left, decide what's going back into this drawer and what needs to go elsewhere. Remove the items that should go elsewhere so you have only the new drawer contents remaining.
Step C: Contain - Take a piece of paper and cut it to the same size as the bottom of your drawer, then place it into your empty drawer. Place the drawer items on the paper in the order and arrangement you prefer—be sure to put items you use frequently near the front. Draw straight lines around the items. Remove the items and the paper. Match the sizes of squares on the paper to my DIY drawer dividers, then make as many dividers as you need. Place your DIY drawer dividers into your drawer and put all of your items into the appropriate compartment, based on the paper you drew.
Step D: Tag - Label each compartment. Either write the name of the item on the tag, or use a label maker or your Cricut. Alternatively, you can even cut vinyl with craft icons to put in the bottom of each compartment if you need labels for pre-readers.
This is my P.A.C.T. organization system — I like to think of it as making a pact with myself to stay tidy and organized.
