Well, as soon as I wrote THIS post about my Desk Refresh for 2020, I knew I needed to actually open up my desk drawers and cabinets and straighten them up. I was feeling a little guilty that it looked all nice and tidy on the outside but was a disaster on the inside! It was time for a little desk organization.
Thankfully, I already had the organization system in place from a few years ago. I just needed to throw some things away and put things back where they actually belong. It’s funny how you {or…. I) can have all the bins and baskets, yet things just don’t find their way INTO those organizational devices.
When I did my initial organizing of this desk, I went to Wal-Mart and bought containers of different sizes (I don’t have links for those, it was probably 3 years ago). I went through all of my supplies and made categories. Then I just sorted my things among the bins that I purchased. Most days I wish I would have measured and bought the exact bins that I needed, but it’s functional and will do!
Now everything is back where it needs to be. I don’t have hot glue sticks in my drawers anymore or papers stuffed in the cabinets. My staples are back where they belong. Let’s see how long this lasts 😉
I also went through my drawers and threw a ton of stuff away. I had stuffed so much junk in the drawers that I could barely open them! Now I actually have a little space to grow (read: buy all the things)
