A few suggestions when using modular drawer organizers like the metal mesh ones pictured above:
- Pull everything out of the drawer sorting into prep and serving pieces, editing out anything you don’t use or need.
- Look at what’s left to see what size organizers you’ll need; extra long or wide.
- Using your drawer’s measurements, draw it out on paper to see how many organizers will fit.
- To make it look its best and not cluttered, create a symmetrical pattern.
- For the organizers in the back of the drawer, angle them from back to front for easy access.
- Group things by use to limit searching for things.
- If you have an inch or so left in the back of the drawer, wedge cardboard from a toilet paper or paper towel roll to make it nice and snug.

Great ideas. Kitchen organization and clarity are so important in Feng Shui because it’s one of the most powerful rooms in the home for our health –> and our wealth. I love the way you’ve explained it so easily, Laura.
Great tips, Laura. Particularly about symmetry. I’m a very visual person and having things look ‘in order’ goes a long way.
