People who tried this

โ€œLast night I was watching TV, and I felt this urge to declutter my junk drawer. It was wonderful. I put everything in one huge pile after removing everything from the drawer. I cleaned the drawer with Mr. clean gain scented spray and a microfiber towel. I then sorted ALL the items into categories. trash/tools/push pins/scotch tape/batteries/etc. I got rid of anything that was broken, old, and/or junk. I gathered anything that might have a home in a different room, like for example a hair tie (go in my bathroom drawer) or some other hygiene item. I then decided if I have multiples of items, I paired it down to 1-2 of them and donated the rest to my elder Mom or the homeless shelter.โ€

โ€œIt only took 9 years after our kitchen renovation and Iโ€™ve finally gotten around to cleaning up the kitchen junk drawer. I actually love purging and organizing, but being the mental-load carrier of the household, I could never find the time or motivation to prioritize it. I took time off from work to deep clean the kitchen. Iโ€™m not quite done but oh man do I feel so much better.โ€
