Organizing Nerds

I attended an awesome presentation last night with NAPO (National Association of Professional Organizers).  Vendors from companies that sell organizing products came to visit us and unveil some of their new products.  

My fave was the representative from Post-It... and it was pretty hysterical as he brought out each new tab, label, bright sticky pad, and pen because the whole group was oohing and aahhing in delight!  We were laughing together at being such organizing nerds.  

I mean, who freaks out about post-its?!  

Check these out:

This cool envelope also has a mini pocket for a business card.

This clear tab is great for marking a spot in a book- 

You can write a note on it and still see the words underneath.  Pretty nifty!

A pen, a highlighter, and sticky tabs?!  Shut the front door!!

My Organized Friends

Welcome to day two of my organized friends!

MEREDITH

The sweet and oh-so talented photographer I met at my best friend's wedding.  She captures the most precious moments between newlyweds, silly kiddos, and loving dogs.  

Click HERE to see her work.

Her studio, just behind her house

The first time I saw these photos of her new studio I almost fell over!  Not only are the photos gorgeous (of course!), but the whole space was so beautifully decorated and organized. 

Meredith's desk

Take a look at her desk... made out of an old door and a piece of glass, this funky desk is a perfect focal point for her studio and a great spot for her to get her work done.  Meredith also utilizes a letter tray to corral loose or small items on the desk.  Keeping her desk clean and tidy is not only important for running her business, but it also helps to give a great first impression to new clients. 

I can't wait until January when I get to visit Maine for the first time.  I hope that we can stop by Meredith's place so I can see her studio in person. 

To see more of Meredith, her studio, and her lovely home in Maine

My favorite 4-letter word

S A L E!

I am such a sucker for a sale, especially when it's for organizing products. 

And today, I got an email from See Jane Work announcing that their Semikolon products are marked down!

Accordion Files

Document Boxes

Magazine Boxes

Not only do they come in many fun colors, but they are great for paper storage, photo organizing, and brightening up your desk.  Check them out here and see if you can resist the SALE!

Organizing By Color

One of my lovely new readers just introduced me to Poppin.com 

and holy smokes, it's a fun website to explore! 

Funky Laptop Bags

One of the neat things about this site is that you can search for items by color.

Magenta anyone?

Or, you can look at "bundles" of coordinating products that are sold at a discounted price.

For your mod home office

I just love learning about new products and new websites... thanks, Liv!  

What are YOUR Faves?
