If you want to put something somewhere safe, where do you put it? BB keeps everything she holds of value, like her blue Frozen Elsa gloves (not to be touched by anyone, under any circumstances) in her knicker drawer. Iβm not quite sure how or when this habit came about, but thereβs now more cheap plastic jewellery, sparkly glitter pens and drawings in there than there are knickers.
The thing is, Iβve realised I do it too. Anything I want to keep safe, out of the way of prying eyes and little hands, I tuck down the side of my underwear drawer. Thereβs all sorts in there thatβs got absolutely nothing to do with pants.
Here are some of the things I keep in my knicker drawer:
1. The original design for my wedding dress. I obviously wanted to keep this, but given itβs in a folder why in the knicker drawer?
2. A piece of paper with all my computer passwords. So Misery Guts can access everything, like the family photos, in case anything happens.
3. My first pair of ballet shoes. Because everyone knows shoes are kept with knickersβ¦
4. A positive pregnancy test stick. I have no idea if this is BBβs or Little Bβs, but either way itβs now at least two years old, possibly five. Yuck.
5. BB and Little Bβs hospital identity bands. These were always destined for their memory boxes but have somehow never made itβ¦
Are BB and I on our own on this one or are there lots of thingsΒ people keep inΒ underwear drawers that have nothing to do with pants? If itβs not too personal a question, Iβd love to know what you keep in yours!

Ahhh what lovely keepsakes! Your wedding dress looks FAB by the way! It’s nice to have those things handy so you see them every now & then in passing. #FartGlitter x
Thank you – I did love it! It is nice to see these things – even if it is when I’m grabbing a pair of knickers!
Err…..for the most part I only keep knickers in my knicker draw. The exception to that is several pairs of woolly glove, make of that what you will?!?!? #fartglitter
Gloves??!! How odd!!
Boring here – just knickers! Well, underwear in general… Knickers, bras, tights, socks, that sort of thing! x #MarvMondays
Sounds like BB and I are on our own on this topic!!
Ha ha ha. The only one I don’t also have in my knicker drawer is the wedding dress design!! X
At last! Someone else who stows away random things!
oh a lovely personal post – not sure i’d feel quite so comfortable sharing the contents of my knicker drawer!! beautiful dress by the way. And also, if you’d kept these items in other places you’d probably never look at them so often or have the memory so often – a perfect place for them I say! #Marvellousmonday xx
That’s very true – I hadn’t thought of that!
My mummy’s knicker drawer has now turned into a ‘shit and crap’ drawer, so much so that her knickers have now been relegated to the second drawer down!! She has old receipts, jewellery, pens, photos and old buttons etc.. Crazy eh? #fartglitter
I have buttons too! And sequins!x
I don’t really have a knicker drawer…it’s more of a box so there is just boring undies in it. I do have my positive pregnancy test too in my bedside drawer π xx #marvmondays
Bedside drawers are another perfect hideaway!
Sorry to tell you that I only keep underwear in my knicker drawer….. I think you might be on your own keeping all those bits in yours.
#MarvMondays
I think I have some allies judging by the comments!!
Priceless! Best post idea I’ve read for ages. Sadly, I cant pinch it as all that’s in mine is pants!
You could always add some extra items for embellishment!
I keep my passport in my knicker drawer – it seemed like a good place for my most important possession! #TheBabyFormula
That’s the perfect, safe place! Where else would it go?!x
This made me smile as I too have all sorts in my knicker draw…the tooth fairy keeps the teeth she takes in there as well in a special tin! #TwinklyTuesday
This really made me smile … my knicker drawer is pretty boring but the drawer above it is JAMMED full of crap. Notebooks, a million pens, old pairs of glasses, receipts for things, lip balms … and, the most random of all, a model of my teeth (!) that I got from the dentist when I had a crown put in. Had to put it somewhere I guess …! #twinklytuesday
I have old pairs of glasses and receipts too!
My goodness I keep so much in my knicker drawer, I thought I as being really clever but obviously it’s the first place anyone would look. I’ll have to move it all…to my sock drawer #TwinklyTuesday
My sock drawer is rammed full of other stuff too..!
This sounds like my bedside drawer – the positive pregnancy test, a few bits from our wedding and from friend’s weddings. I love the look of your wedding dress – how amazing! I actually have put H’s hospital bracelet in her baby book, I also have a lock of her hair in her book too, but no photos – ooooops!
Thanks for sharing, hope you can next week too #TheBabyFormula
I’ve always meant to put the hospital bracelets in books but haven’t got round to it yet!
I don’t think I could keep anything in my knicker drawer, I’d never find it, haha. Love your wedding dress design though and may have to use my drawer as a bit of a hiding place (maybe for the biscuits I don’t want anyone else having).. Thanks for linking up to #MarvMondays! Kaye xo
I think food is the one thing I’ve never kept in there – good idea though!!
Where do you keep your knickers?! lol! I think that’s fab that you kept your pregnancy test, I wish I’d kept mine but I kept pranking my hubby that I was pregnant with it until one day he threw it away. Now I’d have to actually be pregnant to play that one!
I have lots of knickers in there too – and broken glasses, and my passport…it’s quite a big drawer!
