Why every home needs a ‘man drawer’

A man draw is something every homeowner should have, and it’s essentially a drawer in the house that’s home to all of the bits and bobs that you don’t always use but tend to want urgently at random moments in time.

The items we’re talking about are things like:

  • Batteries
  • Spare keys
  • Tools
  • Manuals
  • Keyrings
  • Pens
  • Address books,
  • Business cards
  • Foreign money

These aren’t your everyday items by any means, but they’re very useful in their own way. The fact of the matter is they’re always going to come in handy at some point, so they need a permanent place, and that permanent place is the ‘man drawer.’ Some people have dedicated drawers for these items in their kitchen, beneath their coffee table or in a filing cabinet, and the location is entirely up to you. Just make sure you have one, otherwise you’ll have clutter all over the place!
