list of essential organizing products for your home office

Because my business in almost completely online, I have not needed that much space for my home office.  Basically, until recently, my home office has consisted of my favorite overstuffed chair, a matching ottoman to hold my laptop and my notebinder, and a small basket to hold my hole punch and pens.  As ListPlanIt has grown, I have begun to need a space with a little more room, and space where I could get away from the hubbub of the house and concentrate on what needs to be done.  I now have a new office area in my home.  I am utilizing vertical space, which I love.   Here are some things from the Container Store that I have either begun to use in my office, or have added to my Items Needed page.

  • elfa office system – I had come across elfa on the web and it truly made an impression on me.  I loved that it had a larger board for the lower shelf that a person could use as a desk.  I couldn’t find that with any other system.  elfa’s reviews were outstanding.  I knew when the time was right, this would be the system I went with – and I’m glad I did.  It was so easy to install.  They thought of everything.
  • Stockholm Office Storage Boxes – These stylish boxes are perfect for stacking, storing, sorting, and saving everything from our own office needs to our children’s artwork to family documents.
  • Bisley 5-Drawer Cabinets – These have some of my favorite features: drawers for easy access, convenient size, pretty color choices, and tabs for clear communication of the contents of each drawer.
  • Posy Desktop Photo & Memo Holder – I love this little multi-tasker. It is both a desk decoration (because even though we are working, we still want it to be pretty), and a place to put random bits that you might want in plain view for a little while.
  • Page Ups – I love these little things! They work perfectly for holding up a sheet of paper from which you need to work. Particularly if you need both hands to type or write.
  • Bulletin & Magnetic Board – Because sometimes you want to use a magnet to prevent damage and sometimes you want to use a pushpin to take up less space, this magnetic bulletin board allows you to do both!
  • Stacking Desktop System – Again, with utilizing the vertical space, I love that you can taylor these components to stack on top of each other. They are clear and will fit with any color scheme.

  1. Your office sounds very orderly. Mine is covered with piles of paper that seem to move around the desk but never disappear. Yesterday, I bought 2 wooden tray to finally start organizing my office.

    I sure wish my home office looked as nice as this. I tend to use the horizontal filing system across my desk and counter. LOL Thanks for the inspiration!
