Welcome to day #13 of 15 ways to get organized for less than $15! Today I’m sharing how I keep my daughter’s drawers organized with my favorite thing from IKEA, the SKUBB drawer organizers.
I don’t think it’s possible to express how much I love the SKUBB drawer organizers. I seriously have them in almost every drawer in our house, except in the kitchen. I love that you get an entire pack of 6 for $7.99 (which means you can buy 2 on our $15 budget!) and that they fit together like a puzzle in a drawer.
I discovered these drawer organizers when we were setting up my daughter’s room before she was born. We bought her dresser at IKEA and I thought these would be the perfect thing for organizing the items within the drawer. I was right, and I still use them to this day, to organize her clothes and toys.
I believe that if we want to teach our kids how to be organized that we have to set them up for success. Using these drawer organizers I am able to organize my daughter’s PJs, underwear, bloomers, socks, tights and swim suits, all in a way that’s easy for her to get them out and put them back herself.
In the winter her swim suits are in the back of the drawer but in the summer I move them forward, and her socks to the back. I’ve seen lots of unorganized kids drawers but believe it or not this is so easy to set up and for kids to maintain. I do the same thing with her toy drawer.
This drawer gets messy from time to time but it’s usually just when we add new toys, like after Christmas or a birthday. She actually likes having her toys organized with the SKUBB boxes because it’s easy for her to find what she’s looking for!
All her Barbies, stuffed animals and dolls are in bins in her closet but this drawer does a great job at keeping all the small toys organized.
If you want to see how I used the SKUBB boxes to organize my top dresser drawer, you can see that post HERE. It also shows how I used to organize Malea’s clothes with them, before she got so tall!
If you want to buy some SKUBB boxes to organize your drawers (which obviously I highly recommend) you can click HERE or head on down to your local IKEA, if you’re lucky enough to have one near you!

This is awesome! My daughter desperately needs this.. her clothes are just a big pile in her drawers! Thanks for the tip!
Ok..my son can NOT keep the drawers neat, such a great idea! Might just have to plan a day trip to IKEA!
These are really neat! I can’t wait to get all organized in our new place and I’ll have to keep these in mind!!
I just use old shoe boxes
So I’m thinking different size shoe boxes would work great too! I have tons! Been trying to figure out a better way to keep up with doll and Barbie accessories too. Thanks for the tips!
That’s a great idea!
Love the Skubb organizers!! ? IKEA!!
