Organize Kitchen Drawers Without Spending a Dime

Money is tight for all of us these days and we need to make every dollar stretch further. Spending money on things to organize your home is not likely to be high on your priority list. So here is how you can organize kitchen drawers without spending any money.

Chances are you have sturdy pieces of cardboard lying around your house. These might be boxes left over from moving or from something you got in the mail. If you shop at discount warehouses where you can buy food in bulk, you may even be able to find sturdy boxes from food items you have bought. If you do not have any, try asking your local grocery store for some boxes.

These sturdy cardboard pieces can be cut to fit your drawers as dividers. The bonus with this method of organizing kitchen drawers is that you can cut the cardboard to the exact size you need. Gluing or taping small pieces of cardboard on the ends can help make the dividers more sturdy. Glue or tape pieces on the end to form a T shape on each end of the divider. Take into account these pieces as you measure and cut your divider pieces.

A coat of paint will help to make your dividers more attractive. You can even add some personal flair to your kitchen cabinet drawer organizers by adding flowers, polka dots or other small pictures to them.
