Original Purpose: Bringing home the bijoux.
Aha! Use: Organizing a shallow drawer. Those little boxes are so sturdy and tidy that you hate to throw them out, so don't. Clip them together instead to create a neat divided storage area for pens and pencils, lipsticks, plastic flatware — whatever it is that clutters your drawer. You can even use jewelry boxes for (surprise) jewelry, to keep the bits you wear most often within easy reach.
Reward: A junk drawer that feels — and looks — less junky.
