Back To School Kids’ Desks & GadgetsPosted by admin on September 18th, 2010

I dont know about you, but having two schooling kids are stressful. It’s not the additional assignments or teaching hours I need to clock in as I have independent and bright kids. It’s the clutter and the whole mess of supplies, books and student materials ALL OVER THE HOUSE! Somebody needs to buy me wrinkle lotion before the schoolyear is over.

It’s good thing I was able to have these great modern student workstations as inspiration for their study nooks.

From Left to Right: The Container Store Elfa Shelving system; A mesh storage cart on wheels with shallow draws took the place of the deep draws of the old desk.; Locker Organizer with Hanging Shelves; Knock Down, Flat Out Storage Boxes (Small $7.95 each, Large $9.95 each)

If only I can keep a mess like this as lovely. All the mess in the house seems so, well, MESSY!  My workstation is filled with cables and random stuff like printed boxes, ballpens, ponytails, makeup-bags, spare coins and post-its everywhere. I really need a bulletin board I think. I have a tendency to write everything down, it’s my way of mentally taking note of it in my mind (visualization) but the stuff is now everywhere!

DesksPosted by admin on March 19th, 2010

Since I work from home, I can’t help but be drawn to great desks featured in home decorating blogs. I am quite satisfied with my desk for now – nothing gives me more focus than an organized space just for work, but seeing these beauties makes me long to have a new work space, or a new house.

Being at home in front of the computer all days has some advantages, I am not getting expensive meals nor being inconvenienced by commuting everyday. But it sure is bad for the weight since you tend to snack all day. I might need help from www.naturalfatburner.net!

Sometimes I want a desk that has a lot of “organized clutter” like this one:

But quickly remember I live in a very dusty place.

My inner minimalist likes this one:

But I doubt I can keep this clean. I love it among all the rest I have my eyes on though.

Corkboards are a need for my busy life I think:

I all found them here.
