So many of these are amazing! I'd love to reorganize my office space and make it feel homier with some of these. Particularly, I LOVE the file cabinet desk. Unfortunately, I can't do that in my current space as my desk is built into my wall. :/ But, these are great ideas for once I get more space! Maybe I can try my hand at some of the smaller desktop organizations.
