It is a good idea to take the time to reorganize your kitchen every few months — otherwise, it's too easy for the mess to get out of hand. One of the biggest culprits of kitchen clutter is undeniably all of the drawers. It's just too easy to throw things into drawers without giving it much thought — after all, that's how junk drawers are created.

Whether you've let your junk drawer get out of hand or you've never taken the time to organize all of your cutlery, you are going to need some help with the task of decluttering any drawer messes. To help you out, we have put together some of the best Amazon finds to help you declutter kitchen drawers. The best part? Everything on this list is relatively cheap — the most expensive item is about 33 bucks — so you don't have to shell out a ton of money to make your kitchen more organized. With just one or two of these items, depending on your decluttering needs, you will be all set up to get your kitchen much more organized.

To start us off, here is a basic, yet necessary, option: an expandable silverware organizer from Aujen. A silverware organizer is basically a nonnegotiable for a tidy kitchen. This organizer is expandable, so you can fit it exactly to your drawer. The medium size consists of five small compartments (perfect for separating knives, spoons, and forks), along with two larger compartments on the two ends (which can be used for larger utensils, such as whisks or spatulas). The large size contains one more small compartment. It also comes in a range of colors to choose from. There's options like black and gray, but there are also brighter colors like pink and blue. 

The expandable silverware organizer is available on Amazon — buy the medium size for $12.99 or the large for $18.99.

If you are looking for a little bit more freedom in your organization, try this 25-piece set of clear plastic drawer organizers from Vtopmart. These are perfect if you want to pick and choose how many compartments to fit into a drawer and would work especially well for organizing a junk drawer. The set comes with four different sizes of organizers, so you can pick and choose what works best for your space. These containers are also stackable, so it's easy to store any that you don't currently need. This set also comes in multiple colors if you don't want the clear option, such as beige or black.

Here's another option for large utensils: this soft grip, non-slip three compartment organizer from madesmart.

Despite the smaller size, you will still be able to fit all of the essential cooking utensils that you use on a daily basis. Additionally, the non-slip element is also notable, as the organizer won't move around when you open the drawer.

This organizer fits more than just steak knives — you can use it to store other small and large knives as well. The organizer, which is made of bamboo, fits right into most drawers and will immediately get rid of any knife clutter you may have in your kitchen drawers. It comes in two color option options: brown or natural.
