Our current kitchen doesn’t have an abundance of kitchen drawers. And the ones we do have are pretty small. Not only did our plastic bags and wraps not fit quite right, but I had other items that were far more appropriate for drawer storage (e.g., gadgets, utensils, etc). It has enough spots for all the various size bags and wraps we normally keep on hand, and it does so in just a few units (instead of a collection of many individual boxes). The brilliance containers are my absolute favorite for food and storage. I just love how crystal clear they are and they come in different sizes which would be great for organizing your drawers. Not to be dramatic, but there’s nothing more annoying than a messy, disorganized drawer. We decided to build a DIY Ziploc bag organizer to make one of our drawers a little less disheveled.

To assemble, we’ll use wood glue and 1” nails. You’ll place each piece on top of the bottom and nail through the bottom and into the new piece. There are plenty of ways to organize Ziploc bags you can use to declutter your drawers and keep these helpful storage pouches handy. Whether you want a DIY method or need ready-made Ziploc bag organization ideas, let’s dive deeper and get you the solution that’s perfect for you! We made our entire Ziploc organizer out of a 2’x4’ sheet of maple plywood. Cut your plywood down to sizes you need according to the cut list above.Insert your jigsaw into one of the holes that you drilled and connect the dots. Repeat this until all four compartments are cut out. STEP 3: ASSEMBLE USING GLUE AND NAILS Before I start drilling, I want to mark exactly where to drill. I used a 3/8” drill bit, so I went ahead and marked 3/16” in from the corners of my compartments. And of course, you can use pegboard shelves to hold your wrap and bags. Hang wraps under a kitchen shelf We used our circular saw and Kreg rip cut guide to cut everything down, but you could also use a table saw. STEP 2: CUT HOLES FOR ZIPLOC BAGS Once everything is marked, now it’s time to drill. Line the tip of your ⅜” drill bit up with one of the marks that you made, and drill on through.

Now that it’s all marked, it’s time to cut them out… almost. I wanted rounded corners on my compartments and I’m going to use my drill to accomplish this.Grab your top piece and start sketching out where you want to cut. Each of the compartments will be approximately 2.5” wide.
