Whats a good store for cute office supplies?

Jan 27, 2008 by La-ilaha-ilAllah | Posted in Other - US Local Businesses

I think office depot is too boring, and san rio is too much.
what is something in between where i can cute stationary stuff.
Like organizers, pencil pouches, pens whatever. you get the idea. any ideas are appreciated.

Paper Source or Blick Art in Pasadena. Actually, there's a good selection for art stores in Pasadena and they all try to differentiate themselves from more commercialized stores like Michaels. Personally, I wouldn't go to Michaels as I like supporting local independent business.

Anyways, taking a Saturday or Sunday afternoon to go supplies shopping would be a fun thing to do, especially in a beautiful city like Pasadena.

Craft project: I want to make an "organizer" for a little girl?

Dec 04, 2007 by E.B. | Posted in Hobbies & Crafts

Ok I am trying to find a pattern online (free preferably) so I can make a little organizer. You know, a fabric-covered book-like thing with a notepad & pencils & whatnot. Perhaps three-fold, something that shuts on itself & can be carried neatly, for an artistic little girl.

Problem is I have no idea what it's called, an "organizer" seems pretty vague.

What would this be called?

[and for "bonus points", can you help me find directions how to make one?]

Thanks so much!!

Here is what I found and hopefully you will be able to use one of them?

DIY Desk Organizer For A Cluttered Computer Desk.?

Feb 27, 2009 by DeppOsbourneFan | Posted in Do It Yourself (DIY)

My computer desk is kind of large, but it is also a collector of everything essential and nonessential to computing! Is there some way to make simple little desk organizers out of things like cardboard, etc? (I actually do mean something kinda corny like that! When I was younger I had this cool little pen, pencil, eraser, etc organizer made out of paper towel tubes cut in small portions and glued on a piece of cardboard)

So, I basically need something or some way of organizing my desk mess ASAP and preferably without buying anything.

I agree with using old mugs, what a great idea to store pens/pencils in. I use them to store our toothbrushes and my makeup brushes.

Anyways, I would use baskets to capture papers. I use baskets and trays to keep everything in. I just picked up the cutest small wood trays from Target today for a $1 each that I'm going to use to store paper clips in one and a stapler in the other. I'm all about containing things to keep them from getting scattered and mixed up.

Look around your house for unused baskets, small boxes, small wood containers like those you can insert into a drawer to organize things and utilize what you already have. I have some sturdy small cardboard boxes that measure 3"x4" that my daughters received socks in and I use these to store pens in my desk drawer. I also save sturdy boxes that note cards come in and store erasers and pencils in these in my desk drawer.

So whether it's out in the open, or in a drawer, I use containers like baskets, trays, and boxes to capture and contain things. It just works better than having everything flying around everywhere. And, by the way, I'm not a big fan of those desk drawer inserts with a section for pens, a section for paper clips, etc. I've just found these get so messed up and unorganized after a day of use. I prefer individual containers for everything.

Here's a link to my site on desk organization http://www.lifeorganizeit.com/desk-organization.html
Be sure to check out the other pages on home office organization at http://www.lifeorganizeit.com/home-office-organization.html you may pick up a tip or two that may help you get that desk organized without spending too much money. Good luck!

Paper organizer or PDA?

Aug 01, 2008 by Dowhatnow? | Posted in PDAs & Handhelds

Do you prefer using a pencil and paper organizer, or an electronic one? I bought a pocket pc thinking it would be the thing that changed my life, but it's just not the same as a traditional organizer. What's your opinion?

Its the same as a paper organizer... you just have to become familiar with your new gadget and you'll love it just as much ..

PROs - you can edit information without the need for wite-out or those ugly scratched out marks .... you can receive an audible alert reminding you of a meeting .. you can easily color code your items with the use of categories (once you colored something on paper it had to stay that color) ... you can search through your contacts list by first of last name and not flip through papers ... AND you dont lose information bc a page fell out without you knowing ...

And if you have a great one with mobile capabilities or the internet ... its 10x better than your paper organizer
