🔴The 6-piece set of Stori Clear Plastic Vanity and Desk Organizers come in several sizes and stack on top of each other, making them ideal for organizing silverware, knives and kitchen utensils in drawers. Since they are clear you can see through them and they stack beautifully. -- Jill Viglione Embrace Your Space Organizing
🟡Pots and pans lids loose in a drawer are so irritating! You hear a crash of cymbals every time you try to make spaghetti. End the noise with a lid organizer. Just be sure to measure the height of your tallest lid to make sure it will fit in the organizer in your cabinet. -- MaryJo Monroe reSPACEd
🟢In-drawer spice rack organizing tray – Have all your spices visible and easy to reach in a kitchen drawer. Available in plastic, bamboo, or metal. Many trays are adjustable in size to make full use of the drawer space. -- Beth Giles NW Organizing Solutions, LLC
🔵One of my favorite things for the kitchen are the bamboo drawer organizers from The Container Store. I love the full insert for silverware, and also the single spring loaded piece that works great with larger pieces. --Lauri Wolpert
🔴A $1.99 plastic bag organizer from Ikea holds all your plastic bags quite nicely! No more plastic bags taking up valuable real estate in a drawer! ... See MoreSee Less

When you want the BEST tips for organizing a playroom, NAPO-Oregon organizers know all the answers!
🔴See the space through your child's eyes. Physically their eye level and reach zone is lower. Make sure you keep frequently used items where they can be easily seen, retrieved, and put back by your child. -- Beth Giles NW Organizing Solutions, LLC
🟡Involve your kids in the organizing process and decisions. They will have a hard time keeping things organized if they don't know where things belong or why they belong there. -- Beth Giles
🟢Establish clean up routines. Designating 1 or 2 simple specific tasks that your child should do each morning or night will help keep the space tidy. -- Beth Giles
🔵Here is a tip I used to use with my kiddos. From the time they were toddlers, we played slam dunk. My daughter used to love to test gravity and toss items out of her playpen. Afterward, we would play slam dunk to see how fast we could toss everything back in. As the kids grew older, they would slam dunk toys back into the toy chest or other playroom bins. -- Sherri Curley The Practical Sort Eco-Organizing Solutions
🔴Give kids the option 20 minutes before their playdate ends to choose to clean up with their friends or to do so alone after their friend left. You will find that kids almost always opt for friend assistance. -- Sherri Curley ... See MoreSee Less
