So recently I've been struggling with staying organized and coming up with ideas to write for my blog. I figured this is a typical case of writer's block but in order to help give myself inspiration I need to have a nice, peaceful, WRITING area in my room. So here is the before and after shot of my desk....
Basically, I got rid of the Pink catch all box I had and I made this a WRITING only area.
But before I did all this I had to stock up on supplies...

- You only need one TO FILE/OUT box
- Everything should be easy to find and in a logical place
What parts of desk organization do you struggle with? Too many papers? Difficulty categorizing everything?
