I love the website Everygirl. Do you follow it? If not, you should. I like their pieces about women entrepreneurs and employees, fashion bits, work bits – the works.
This article, Essentials for a Home Office, is really great. It outlines areas that each one needs, and these areas make perfect sense. I mean, I have almost everything they’ve suggested, so I must be doing something right!
Here’s their list and visual (so pretty! – click to see it larger)
And here’s what my current ‘office’ looks like.
Nailed it, right?
Sure, when it’s set up it’s the dining room table. But look! I have a pencil cup, even if it’s a Little Mermaid one. And I definitely have a note book. And natural light. Look at my storage! That box and pile of stuff tucked in the corner, that’s not a problem, right?
*sigh*
This is one reason I need those living room book shelves soon.
Also, these Kate Spade office bits. Someday.

What’s your home office look like? Please show me inspirational pics or commiserate with me that I’m not alone in this mess!
Bit of Momsense, I love the Pinterest ideas you have for your dream home office. I can comisserate with you, as mine is not up-to-snuff as of yet. I just have a desk and my wonky laptop! The best feature of my home office is the wipeboard attached to my desk that I used to help keep me organized for assignments.
Good luck on your home office! Please share your results!
I love white boards – I really need to organize my papers better though! Thanks for reading and commenting!
I turned my home office into a craft room…and I pull out my laptop when I need it. Complete with inspiration boards, kids artwork on the walls and lots of desk space. Definitely need to upgrade the lighting, but it works for now!
oh that’s smart! Don’t get me started on my craft stuff, that’s another mess for another day 😉
Honestly, I think it’s way better than the time you tried to organize your linen closet! 😉
It’s functional, in the very least.
Maybe Kate Spade will read this and send what you wish for and then Everygirl (not wanting to be outdone) will swing by with everything you *really* need to make your office Bitsy perfect!
I wish! 😉 And yes, anything may be better than the linen closet 😉
Great post! I would love it if you joined and contribute your awesome posts at my link party at City of Creative Dreams on Fridays 😀 Hope to see you there at City of Creative Dreams Link Party
thanks!
