Office Organizing: Use What You Have

If you're anything like me, you want to organize & keep things looking cute & uncluttered... but don't have the funds to go to the container store or any of those fancy schmancy places. 

Welllll I've got some great pictures for you of inspiring organizational ideas that use the stuff lying around your house! A little upcycling if you will... my sister likes to make fun of me for that word, but you know what.. sometimes it just fits. 

Try using an old suitcase to organize and display your crafty items!
