...and another thing...

Today I'm tackling the dreaded utensil drawer or as I call it - the second drawer down - the drawer under the cutlery drawer.
~
Look at this conglomeration!  A lit of it is used daily but there is some crap in there too!
~
Oh, my Lord! How can it be this grotty?
~
How did a Smartie get in there??
~
I scrubbedit with Miracle Spray then used a bit of Jif to lift some stains.  I was going to use this clear plastic tub but it takes up too much room...
~
Do you have favourite utensils? This is a small spatula thst I use almost daily. I keep looking for another but I haven't found one yet!
~
My crinkle cutter for carrots, cucumber and making crinkle cut oven baked chips.
~
Do you own a jar key? Never have trouble opening tight jars again!
~
Inserted under the lid rim, it releases the vacuum and the jar then opens easily. Game changer!
~
Here's the drawer now. It still looks a bit untidy but everything is visible and there are no nasties in therethat can hurt me when I dive in.  There are a few other things that are in the dishwasher still to go in.
Another #onething done and I did it in about 40 minutes.
~
With a few minutes to spare, I zipped over my kitchen sink with MS and some Gumption. 
~
My bathroom cabinets are next up although they are in pretty good nick!
Have a nice day!
Cheers - Joolz xx

  2. Hee hee - I am sure everybody in the 1st world has a second draw exactly like that. I am also sure it will be exactly like that again in a couple of months - certainly is what happens at ours. Anyhow, a satisfying transformation.

  3. Joolz, it looks like mine. Sigh! Another clean up coming up I think.

  4. My second drawer down is similar and most of it is stuff I only use occasionally. When we stay in holiday units I always like how they only have the essentials and the drawers are neat as a pin. I clean my junk drawer out in Feb and September and that keeps it under control... sort of.
