Clutter Confessions {the dreaded dresser drawer}

Next up on my list to de-clutter is the dresser drawer. I have very few drawers to my name, so thankfully I had only a few drawers to organize.  :)
I won’t show you all of them, but these two are my drawers that seem to always be in disarray. 
My sock drawer.  And my nightstand drawer. 
Are you scared?
Somehow my nightstand drawer seems to gather all those odd miscellaneous things that I can’t seem to think of a better place for.
Ah, and my sock drawer? The stuff just multiplies. Here’s my pile of socks etc…

I got rid of a lot of things that I rarely or never used which pared things down quite a bit. 
I also wanted to separate my ankle socks from the rest since I seemed to always be digging for the ankle socks. I took a scrap of cardboard, folded it in half {into a “L” shape} and created a divider for the drawer.

Wala… ankle socks on the right… ripe for the grabbing.  :) I know that the cardboard isn’t the most glamorous or attractive thing, but it is functional.  I could always spray paint it black later for some pizzazz.
Up next was my nightstand drawer.  It was one of those ‘in the moment’ things, and I didn’t stop to take one of those awful before pictures. But trust me. It was not. good.

Ahhhh!
I just ♥ these drawers being organized.  Makes me feel soooo good. :)

    I use shoe boxes to organize everything in drawers – socks, underwear, etc. Not pretty but it works and they are free! :)
