Pics on my profile in a minute once I've done this post.
I have recently organised the living room with proper storage and am amazed at the difference it has made. I actually get time to clean the room instead of just managing to get it tidy.
So, while I'm on a roll, I need to do my bit under the stairs which we refer to tongue in cheek as the "office".
You will see from the pics that it's not very big, but you will also see that it's just a bloody mess. It's the first horizontal surface available on entering the house, so it becomes a dumping ground for keys/hats/gloves/bags/mail/you name it.
I have an in tray and a filing cabinet, so am pretty organised with the adminny stuff, I just hate having to tidy that bit before I can sit down and deal with the admin. And don't worry readers, we have a laptop, I don't have to sit in that mess to MN DH wants to keep the old computer, so afraid it has to stay...
Those wicker baskets are also just a complete jumble. I know that there are spare batteries in there for example, but can I lay my hands on them when I need them??
I am thinking some sort of mini drawers for the stapler/post-its/drawing pins/spare batteries/tape measure/cluttery stuff but need a few more ideas.
Anyone?
