How to Create a Home Office in a Small Living Space

Well as a matter of fact I do Sweetie. First, kudos to you on trying to organize your space more efficiently. Here are my suggestions:

Try checking out this Tucker Camo laptop table from

CB2, which they describe: “Clever laptopper tucks right in by sofa/chair to table/store laptop/iPad. Sleek angled profile retros prouve in slick hi-gloss camo green powdercoat. Smart iron sheet metal design piano-hinges open to store up to a 17″ laptop. Center cord management for neatniks.”

Next gather up your office supplies and your laptop and put them in this cool magazine rack with a handle from Plexi-Craft. You can now pull out your table by your sofa, set up your laptop and bring over all your office supplies in a snap.

How’s that for a portable, cool mini office?
