Every kitchen could use a little more organization, and these drawer projects deliver a lot! Easily accessible pots and pans, a charging drawer and much more. The projects are also easy to build using butt joints, glue, and nails or screws.
I built all but the knife rack from Baltic birch plywood. It has attractive raw edges that don’t need edge banding. Or you could use standard plywood or solid wood and apply wipe-on poly for a clean, high-end look!
Custom Silverware Tray
Store-bought silverware trays never fit the drawer perfectly. They shift and slide around and leave awkward space around the tray. Custom-fit partitions maximize the kitchen storage space and eliminate the annoying sliding.
Start with the main dividers
I sectioned this big drawer using a T-shaped divider made from ½-in. plywood. I screwed it into place through one side and the back. If I ever want to change the configuration, it’s be easy to do. Because these drawers are melamine, I sanded and finished all the parts before adding them to the drawer.
Add the partitions
Divide the large sections using ¼-in. partitions, just as in the drawer in a drawer. Here, however, since the parts are prefinished, I attached the spacers with countersunk ½-in. wood screws instead of glue.
