Posted by Lincoln Pointe Apartments on 10:47 AM
Are you looking for new creative ways to organize your work space? Check out this article from Buzzfeed. You can use everyday items to transform your workspace into a creative and productive sanctuary.
1. Store small items in a spice rack.

Just be sure to wash them thoroughly or your rubber bands will forever smell of cumin.
2. Never spill again with this portable drink holder.
thinkgeek.com
It clips onto the edge of your desk and will prevent the dreaded soy-latte-meets-MacBook-Pro disaster from occurring.
3. Keep papers and pens neat with an organizer made from an old frame.

4. Turn a frame into a dry-erase to-do list.
