Drawer Oraganizers

This is a fun project I saw in Martha Stewart's Magazine and found it online so that I could link to it here.  Very simple to make drawer organizers...and who doesn't love an organized drawer! Click on the link to see all the other ideas for organizing drawers.




Fold-Up Divider
You'll need a flexible tape measure, foam board, a self-healing mat, a ruler, a craft knife, book cloth, a pencil, a straightedge, acid-free glue, a putty knife, and a bone folder.

1. Measure width, depth, and height of the drawer. Cut 5 pieces of foam board: 2 that are the size of the depth by the height, and 3 that are one-third of the width by the height.

2. Trim 1/2 inch from a short side of each piece. Lay pieces end to end in alternating lengths on book cloth, with 1/4 inch between each piece; mark edges with pencil. Cut cloth so it's 1 inch larger than foam board on all sides. Trim corners at a 45-degree angle.

3. Apply adhesive to book cloth with putty knife. Place foam board back on book cloth, according to markings. Wrap cloth over foam board. Cut a piece of cloth to cover the bare sides of the foam board; glue down.

4. Fold divider into shape with bone folder.
