Tease of a Thursday

Oh, how I wish my office looked like this (so pleasing to the OCD), instead of the crazy mess it is. But I'm working on it...

or even this from Ballard Design (this pleases my design senses):

dreaming and scheming...

The Mess Issue

This is our playroom/my office - the room we spend most of our time in. It is also the messiest room in our house and I CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE!!!

What do you do with all your mess? Trying to come up with storage solutions that work for a two year old and four year old, plus a 30+ year old (OK nearly 40 but don't go there!!) is tough! My desk drives me crazy. It is huge, which I love because I can spread my stuff around. But then that is also what drives me crazy about it - it is huge and I can accumulate all my stuff on there, then eventually there is just a tiny little alley way to my keyboard, with huge mountains of paperwork on either side. I also despise filing! Ugghh. Can never find anything, etc, etc...

So conclusion is I must do something with this room - NOW!

Ice (and a little snow) day here today. The kids are bundled up on the couch watching Noddy. Husband shut up in his office working. So what a perfect chance...I guess I had better go :)
