Youse were all good sports with "show me your drawers" yesterday. It goes to show the cutlery drawer can be organised but that other one with the kitchen gadgets is a lot harder due to the different shaped shit in there.

I vote posting artwork or photography on your wall next. Slightly more interesting innit?

[–] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 3 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Sure. Would you like me to start the movement?

[–] Catfish@aussie.zone 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Can't do most my mine on that. Both faces & NSFW

[–] useless_modern_god@aussie.zone 3 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Oh now I’m intrigued and insist you post something. Even if you have to blur some faces.

[–] Catfish@aussie.zone 1 points 7 months ago

Hope you don't mind pointy things...

I don't have a sock drawer :( they just live on the floor.

I don't really ever put my clothes away. I dress simple and don't have anything fancy, so it just gets washed, put in a basket, then left on top of my dresser or sometimes in the corner of my bedroom. Then I just grab and go

[–] Seagoon_@aussie.zone 4 points 7 months ago (1 children)

I do put everything away but I just end up wearing the same things nearly everyday anyway. Just grab what ever's on top. πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™€οΈ

You're less of a chaotic mess than me 😁

I vote for the dreaded "pot cupboard" next. Some fancy people have pot racks. Us savages just make do with every small pot and pan stacked on top of every larger pot and pan

[–] Eagle@aussie.zone 3 points 7 months ago

Stack your small pots in the bigger pots. Small pot lid upside down, big lid on top.

[–] Salvo@aussie.zone 1 points 7 months ago

Our Pot Drawers are like the worse game of Tetris anyone has ever played. At least our Pots and Frypans are all round(ish) and can stack. Our baking dishes and casseroles are all different shaped oblongs and round rectangles. Our β€œTupperware” cupboard is impossible to keep organised due to the hodge-podge collection of different designs of Tupperware, Sistema, Decōr and random brands of plastic containers that have collected over the years.

That sounds like fun.

That's why I like this Joseph Joseph garlic crusher I bought. It's a kitchen gadget, but it's just a curved but of stainless steel. It doesn't take up much space and it can't break compared to other kitchen stuff you can buy

I vote for the pantry if it's not too personal.

[–] PeelerSheila@aussie.zone 2 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (1 children)

I missed all the show me your drawers, show me your art stuff yesterday. Damn it, I had some good interesting art too.

Edit: oh, you're still deciding. Just ignore me, I'm catching up on this thread sorted from "oldest" just ignore me lol.

[–] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

No worries. Show when you're ready.

For some reason Jerboa (which is usually running fine for me) is not letting me post pictures, I'm getting a display timeout msg, so I've got to use my browser.
