Welcome to the 30-Day Organize-athon!
In today’s 5 minutes we’re going to organize your um, delicates.
OK go!
Day 16: Organize Your Underwear
Step 1: Empty your underwear drawer.
Step 2: Collect only those items that:
- You wear; and
- Are in good condition; and
- Make you feel good.
Step 3: Arrange these items in your underwear drawer, keeping:
- Similar items together – eg sports bras in one pile
- Most frequently used items in the most accessible locations – eg special-occasion lingerie can go toward the back of the drawer.
Step 4: Throw into the trash all discarded underwear – decrepit, discolored and demoralizing alike.
And you’re done!
Got an Extra 5 Minutes?
Let’s take stock of your underwear requirements. (Boys, you get a pass on this one. 
)
Check your closet and determine whether you need any additional underwear in order to make the most of your clothes, eg:
- Strapless bra
- Racer back bra
- T-shirt bra
- Nude bra
- Shapewear
- Thong or boy-leg brief (to avoid visible panty line).
Now isn’t that refreshing?

All done!
did this one.
Ahhh .. this is actually one area that is organised in my life!! I already keep all matching sets in zip lock bags & have one ziplock for my ‘granny undies’ .. this way I can sift thru my underwear drawer without stress lol 🙂
Already DONE 😀
Done!
I’ve been meaning to do this for a while so thanks for the push. Done!
Completed! Passed some “gently used” t-shirts and things on to a woman’s shelter.
done missed posted yesterday though
Done!
Did at the same time as closet clean-out. But went through again to double check.
My socks are in a waste paper basket in the bottom of my cupboard, my shoes are in a plastic tub to keep out spiders or mice. My underwear is sorted today. Underpants are seperataly placed in a cane wicker basket. And what to do with my hats. Any suggestions?
I did this yesterday but forgot to post about it. I really need to get shopping for underwear!!
Done. My girls did this in their rooms too!!!
This is done. I had so many unflattering, stretched out pairs of underwear. I got rid of all the pairs that I dig down through to find the ‘good ones’. Also, I had a ga-zillion pairs of socks crammed in there, too. Gone!
Good news is that I found a gift certificate to a department store when I was cleaning paperwork out of the office and can buy a couple of ‘good’ pair to replace the throwaways. Serendipity, indeed!!
Done – now I need to go shopping, not much of my underwear survived the sorting.
Working on taxes with the Mr all day (nothing like a deadline!), so didn’t get this done til today….Wow! My drawer went from so-full-it-wouldn’t-close to almost empty! Why did I keep all those bras that I knew were uncomfortable so I’d never wear them? I do the same with shoes. Strange…the things we save.
done
This was easy. Did this yesterday and even get my hubby to do his drawer…
Easy! Done!
Simple! Done
