Balancing necessary storage with a beautiful living area can sometimes feel challenging!
I'm sharing how I arranged my office items within the Ikea Billy Bookcases.
When we first moved into our townhouse, my workspace had to be situated in the living room. Through thoughtful planning, I managed to conceal the office supplies right here:
Can you spot them?
If not, that's ideal!
My desk is positioned beneath the window near the front entrance, only a short distance from the Billy Bookcase.
For a visual guide to my office organization in the bookcase, view this video:
The cabinet at the end houses my most frequently used office gear and supplies.
I appreciate that it's slender enough to minimize floor footprint yet spacious enough for a printer!
A 2-level tray organizes mail and documents needing filing, while a covered Ikea box stores my hard drives, USBs, and cables.
The remaining Billy Bookcases are also very useful; one displays our photos and albums, another holds books, and the final one contains dvds and a small filing box for household documents.
