At Royal Palm Closet Design & Fine Cabinetry, we talk with a lot of customers who are desperate for better organization in their kitchens. Unfortunately, kitchen drawers seem to be some of the messiest and least organized areas. If your kitchen drawers are driving you crazy, consider implementing some of these creative ideas. Once everything is well-organized, you’ll save so much time in the kitchen. Instead of spending 10 minutes digging through all your drawers to find your favorite paring knife or egg separator, you’ll benefit by knowing everything is in a specified location.
Empty and Purge
Most people have many more items in their kitchen drawers than they will ever actually use. Do you really need 30 soup spoons? Are you holding onto two potato peelers when no one in your family likes potatoes? Are your drawers filled with odds and ends that you don’t even know how to use?
If so, it’s time to empty your drawers and get rid of everything you don’t use. If the task seems overwhelming to you, tackle just one drawer at a time. Empty everything out of the drawer and examine each item. Sort your items into three piles: things to keep, things to toss and things to donate. Throw away anything that is broken or useless, and set aside good items that you don’t use to give to others. Keep your useful items, and take a minute to clean the drawer before you put the items back in it.
Try Out Different Designs
Royal Palm Closet Design & Fine Cabinetry can create custom drawers that meet your specific needs, but some customers find it difficult to determine the best drawer setup. Our friendly designers are here to help, and you can also play around with different designs just by grabbing a few pieces of cardboard and some scissors.
Measure your drawers, and cut the cardboard into strips to make DIY dividers. You can attach the strips together with a glue gun to make them more sturdy. Best of all, you can experiment with a variety of designs and setups to get a good idea of what works best in your kitchen.
Use Custom Inserts
Once you have some ideas about the drawer layouts that work well for your family, Royal Palm will step in and turn your dreams into reality! Whether you need custom cabinetry and drawers for your whole kitchen or just a few new drawers, our designers can create solutions that will make working in your kitchen easier.
When your drawers are well-organized, you’ll eliminate a lot of wasted time in the kitchen. It’s even easier to unload the dishwasher when everything has its place. You’ll love having a kitchen that is stylish as well as functional.
