I really like the baskets. Along with the matching white binders, they help give the space a cohesiveness and take the eye clutter down a notch. I also love the magazine rack on the wall. I saw a similar one at Marshall's yesterday, but had to sleep on it before deciding if it is worth the $12.99.
The reason I am torn is because I prefer hiding my clutter, my papers, and my projects in folders, baskets, etc... anything to keep them out of sight. Andrew is not that way at all. He is all about convenience and ease. If he is going to put anything back where it belongs at all, that spot has to be easily accessible and visible. Otherwise, the project will either be forgotten about, or he will never put the thing back where it belongs; he will leave it on the floor, on the desktop, somewhere effortless. And the office space is technically for Andrew and not for me. So I am thinking the magazine rack is the way to go... It is still better than having stuff piled on the floor, the desk, or the kitchen table.
The chair is also right up my alley; however, I am leaning toward a thrifted chair topped off with a pretty cushion.
The goal this weekend is to purchase 2x4s and brackets, have them cut to the proper measurements, and then paint them. I am leaning toward painting them white as opposed to staining them the harsh color of the desk. While I am at Lowes, I also plan on purchasing some LED lights to hang in the office space, since there is no overhead light in that [former] closet.
