If you don’t have window cleaner, or if you are worried about damaging the finish, wipe the inside of the drawer down with a damp cloth.
Spring-loaded dividers work great, because they can fit into any sized drawer. [4] X Research source
Measure the narrowest edge of your drawer, then buy boxes that match that measurement. If you can’t find fabric-covered boxes, you can use paper-covered or plastic boxes instead. Make your own fabric-covered boxes if you can’t find ones that you like.
You can also use an empty perfume bottle, but wrap it in a handkerchief first. [6] X Research source Avoid scented drawer liners, as they often contain oils that can stain bras.
Do not fold the bras. Keep them straight. You can close the back straps, however. Don’t stack the bras on top of each other. You want to see all of the bras. Molded bras have foam or padded cushioning inside the cup. They are typically wired and have a bowl shape.
You can fold non-molded bras in half, such as lace or sports bras.
Hanging shoe cubbies are typically made from fabric. Each cubby is wide enough to hold a pair of stacked shoes.
If you have medium pink, burgundy, and light pink bras, arrange them from dark-to-light: burgundy, medium pink, and light pink. If you have teal, pink, blue, yellow, and purple, arrange them in rainbow order: pink, yellow, teal, blue, and purple.
If you have 1 white, 1 black, and 1 nude bra, put all of them into the same compartment. Keep the other colors in a different compartment. If you have only 2 non-molded bras and 1 fancy bra, keep them in 1 compartment. Keep your molded bras in a second compartment.
If you are using a shoe cubby or a multi-bra hanger, put the bras you wear the most towards the top, and the bras you wear the least towards the bottom.
Plain wooden hangers will work the best, but you can try fabric-covered ones too. Plan on getting between 4 and 6 hangers–1 for each bra. Keep in mind that this only works with strapped bras, not strapless.
Don’t paint fabric-covered hangers. Shake the can of spray paint well before you use it. Hold the can 8 to 10 inches (20 to 25 cm) from the wood. Spray the hangers with a clear acrylic sealer for a more durable finish.
The eye hook needs to be big enough for the hook part of the hanger to fit through. If your hanger is made from a solid piece of wood, you’ll have to drill a hole into the underside of the hanger first. Make sure that the eye hook is oriented perpendicular to the hanger. You should not see the front O part of it, but the side.
If the bras slip off of the hangers, take them off, then draw a squiggle of hot glue along the top of each hanger. Let the glue set, then put the bras back.
