RePurpose Ice Cube Tray as a Desk Organizer
Our computer desk drawer is an absolute nightmare! I had made our girls' baby food when they were all young, so I had quite a few ice cube trays that needed a new purpose. Why spend money on drawer organizers, when you can utilize what you already have around the house. We now have a very happy desk drawer!
