Although my apartment's tiny office nook is only 5x6 feet, I'm dead set on squeezing out as much usable space from it as possible. Before my latest renovation, I had only a tiny desk and small filing cabinet in the compact room—and that was not sufficient. I needed more workspace, a place to store books, and room to showcase photos and other knickknacks.
That's why I installed ClosetMaid-brand, adjustable shelves from The Home Depot a couple weeks ago. They cost only $50 total, and they were a breeze to put up. Because I was able to alter the height between each of the three shelves, I made enough room to place my computer screen on the bottom shelf, which freed up elbow room on my desk below.
I'm still arranging the shelves to my liking, and I'm eyeing new photo frames to fill them. It's slow going, but it's a step in the right direction. What are your thoughts? Any tips?
Until next time
