How do you organise office supplies without an office?

greenjellysnakes · 02-22-2009, 09:02 PM

We don't have an office, just a desk at the end of the kitchen, and we are looking to get rid of it - it takes up way too much space (and I want to put a play kitchen there for the kids!). However, we obviously still have "office supplies" that we need to store somewhere, but still have easily accessible - printer, paper, pens, pencils, stapler, envelopes, stamps etc, etc. So, is there anyone else out there who has an "office area" without a desk? Any creative solutions? I'm all ears

My office supplies are on two shelves in a cabinet in the kitchen. That way I can close the doors and its out of sight. Want a picture of my "office"? I could take one tomorrow

Printer though is by the cpu in the living room

Office has paper, pens, pencils, phone books, stamps....
