Day 4: 40 days, 40 bags

The junk drawers...2 of them!

Again, not much here was given away. A pair of brand new shoe laces. Some keychains we got at an athletic event, some penguin shaped erasers. You know, important stuff.

Drawer 1 before:

 Drawer 1 after:

I keep these great little trays to corral stuff and keep like stuff together. Each tray holds the following items (tray 1 tissues and handkerchiefs, tray 2 Command Hooks, tray 3 child proof items, tray 4 extra pieces for various things, tray 5 a TI-84 calculator that needs a new home, tray 6 Altoids and some items we use annually at Thanksgiving).

Drawer 2 before:


Drawer 2 after:

In this drawer I do the same thing with the trays. You can get them at the Dollar Tree or the Target dollar spot. I love them. 

(tray 1 stamps and sticky notes, tray 2 erasers and rubber bands, tray 3 nail clippers and hand stuff, tray 4 tape and stapler, tray 5 lighters and matches, tray 6 deck of cards and mini dominoes.) 

Why do we have so much tape? Because our kids like to use it. For various things. And before you know it, it's gone. So I try to keep a lot so I have some when I need it.

Why do we have so many lighters and matches? This I do not know. We don't smoke. Hm....If you need a lighter, I have one for you. A present. For you. From me.
