Kzoo Posted October 20, 2021 Share #2 Posted October 20, 2021 One? We have one in the kitchen with tools WoKzoo likes to have around. It has lots of other odds and ends... screws, nails, charging cords to long gone devices, a couple flashlights...... In addition to a couple different sized hammers, screwdrivers, pliers, knives....... We have one on the other side of the kitchen with small screws, nails, brads, sticky things, picture hangers, wire...... other stuff she uses on her building projects. Then there is the battery drawer. The one that contains no less that 532 batteries but never the size you are looking for, or it will have one of the size you are looking for if you need 2 of them. Is a battery drawer considered a junk drawer? Some of the batteries are dead - they escaped from the bag where we keep dead batteries before recycling. A dead battery looks like a live battery. hen there is the drawer with all of the sharpies. There are at least 532 of them but again, never the color you are looking for even if that color is simply black. Is that a junk drawer if 13.82% of then are dried out? 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It drives my wife nuts that when we get sushi, they always toss in two sets of chopsticks (rubberband wrapped with a napkin and a soy pack). We have our own chopsticks already (and napkins and soy sauce), so I have to remember to tell them to take them back. I don't always, and we end up with a LOT of these over the years. At least the napkin and soy can be readily used, but the chopsticks just get tossed in the junk bin. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoseySusan Posted October 20, 2021 Share #19 Posted October 20, 2021 The mosey junk drawer. It’s in the kitchen, and bigger than the previous one, so I can fit two tape measurers now. I don’t know what any of those keys are for. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Beanz Posted October 20, 2021 Share #22 Posted October 20, 2021 I can't really say junk drawers, maybe stuff drawers. Nothing like that in my dressers, all clothes. My drawers are the little plastic types where I store my stuff. Little box of lights and cables on the right. Drawers of Go Pro stuff and mounts to the left. And another box of drawers to the left of my computer for photography stuff. Like flash drive sticks, cables etc. Now GINA, she has junk drawers with who knows what in them!

Airehead Posted October 20, 2021 Share #29 Posted October 20, 2021 Each person should post a picture of their junk drawer. (NOT their junk pouch!) I am driving home right now to take a picture of our last drawer in the kitchen, right above the cupboard where we keep dog foods, dog medicines, dog vitamins, and stainless steel dog bowls. We do not keep treats in that cupboard because Paulie opens it and takes out treats when we are asleep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I contend that those are drawers. From Webster: The word drawers has been used since the 16th century to refer to garments such as stockings, underpants, and pants. It comes from the verb draw used in the sense of pull, probably because you pull them up your legs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
