jumbly
Mixed up chaotically
Jumbly describes something mixed up, disordered, or thrown together in a confused way: The drawer was full of jumbly odds and ends.
The word has an informal, slightly playful quality, suggesting messiness without serious consequence.
It derives from jumble the way wobbly derives from wobble.
