Match the drawer height to what you're storing. Use Singles for flat or shallow items (brads, ribbons, ink pads), Doubles for medium-bulk items (washi tape, tape rolls, sewing notions), and Triples for tall jars and bulky tools (paint jars, glues, machines). Most crafters end up with a mix — Triples on the bottom, Doubles in the middle, Singles on top.

Every BCO cabinet column has a fixed number of slots (vertical inches of usable space). A Single drawer takes up 1 slot, a Double takes up 2, and a Triple takes up 3. So a column with 12 slots could hold 12 Singles, 6 Doubles, 4 Triples, or any combination that adds up to 12.

No — drawers are 12" wide on the outside and taper slightly on the inside, so 12×12 paper is a tight fit at best. For paper storage, use our Paper Shelves (slanted, designed for 12×12 access) or Paper Holders instead.

Yes. Drawers slide in and out of any open slot in any BCO cabinet. Your craft room can grow over time — start with a few drawers and add more as your supplies expand. Mix sizes within the same column to fit exactly what you store.

Our current drawers are solid white — released in May 2023. Older BCO drawers were a different finish, so if you're matching to an existing set purchased before May 2023, expect a slightly different look. Many customers paint older drawers to match the new ones (or paint everything to a custom color).

Yes! Our drawers take paint well with a little prep — the right primer matters because polypropylene is non-porous. We've put together 5 tips for painting BCO drawers on the blog with everything you need to know to get a clean, lasting finish.

Just wipe down with a damp cloth and mild soap. The high-impact polypropylene resists most craft messes — paint, glue, ink — but always wipe spills as soon as you can to prevent staining.
