Do your Homework in Style

The big idea: When you don't have the space to devote an entire room to a home office, turn a tiny closet into a workstation. This small nook holds all the essentials: desk lamp, bulletin board, files, laptop, and printer. Simply pull up a chair and you're in business.
Notice the details: A hemstitched cotton sheet, cut to fit, acts as a curtain to hide the basic metal file cabinets and stacks of stuff. Translucent containers take the guesswork out of which ones hold magazines, catalogs, and important papers.
