What does yours look like?
I need inspiration....
I also need ideas of where I can find inexpensive desk accessories like a small charging station, corkboard, places to store mail, keys, papers etc.
I'm in love with the Bedford desk accessories and the daily system from Pottery Barn but it's just so expensive I'm trying to get other ideas so it doesn't cost me a fortune!
Also any ideas to personalize the space? I did a gallery wall of wedding photos on one wall with the idea that I can change it out to family pictures when we start a family...but other than that I can't really think of anything....I've been trying to think of something relating to NY maybe, but I'm stuck...
Thanks guys!

Re: Home Offices/Dens
We don't have a home office, our desk is in our loft so, it's sort of one big family room for now.
I like the idea of giving your office a NY theme. My friends just bought a pic similiar to this one
Pic
But, theres is of London (since that is where he is from) and it's really nice.
As far as the Daily Organization System from PB...GL trying to fing something similiar. I tried and found nothing. I wound up ordering one piece and matching it with a dry erase board and cork board from like Walmart. All the frames are black so it doesnt look so bad.
Ikea also has some rattan organizers.

Re: Home Offices/Dens
Okay...so I know its not the same as he pottery Barn line but I was just on Etsy and there are people on there that make handmade office organizers...they are really cute and inexpensive for the most part. not sure what your design style is.
ETA: This is actually cool...she prints vinyl decal that you just place in the back of a picture frame the that becomes a dry erase board...I think I might actually get this one myself...
For some reason attaching a link is not coded correctly...so the seller is
sayitwithstyle and here is the link to the picture

Re: Home Offices/Dens
how about NY tin signs or NY post cards.
Tin Signs
Post Cards
Art.com - New York Pics
Some really great pics on here. And not bad prices. You could buy cheap frames to put them in.
Check out Target, Walmart, Kmart, Ikea for office organizers. I'm sure you will find something you can make your own and not spend too much.  Can't wait to see what you come up with, you have great taste Nik!
