How To Have Your Office in Small Spaces
June 16th, 2008
As promised this week we are going to be talking about offices and how to organize them.
First of all decide on a place for our office, if you have the luxury of having a room for an office, great. But if you don’t you can still have a nontraditional office. Some things to consider when selecting your place:
•Convenience
•Accessibility
•Appearance
•Personal preference—does it make you feel good to be working in this area?
•Practicality
For small spaces an office armoire that can hold a computer, paper, accessories (pens, pencils etc), and a printer work very well. This is ideal for a living room, family room or even in the bedroom. There are beautiful ones on the market that come in all colors and wood grain.
You need a flat surface to be able to work on. There are many types and sizes of desks. Look for one that fits your space. A table can be designated for a desk. Small desks built in a kitchen area can work well with organization.
Pick your spot and we will chat about how to organize it this week. Do you have a unique place you call your office?

My scrap-room and office have to co-exist.. and some days they don’t play nice together at all. I must admit, I spend more time/money on my scrap-room than my office and maybe I should stop the sibling rivalry and buy my office some nice new toys so it will stop with the jealousy?
