Make into a drawer (9)

I believe the answer is:

magnetise

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'make' is the definition.
(I know that magnetise is a more specific form of the action charm)

I can't explain the remainder of the clue.

(Another definition for magnetise that I've seen is " create a strong attraction".)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
