I love to shop on Etsy.com for handmade creations, there are always spectacular finds to discover. It continually amazes me how clever the products and creators are that sell on this site! I wanted to showcase some great organizational items to make your home office sparkle with personality and function. Here are some of the many cool things that can be found:

First out of the gate is the “Office in a Can” (pictured above) from seller Twooni on Etsy. This cute addition to your desktop comes with:
1 super cute pencil cup, 2 BIG paper clips, 3 magnets, 4 clothespin whiteboard magnets. For only $12.00 you can take this baby home>

These rainbow colored magnets caught my eye, with the days of the week on each one you can really keep organization looking cute. Use them on your fridge, filing cabinet, or magnetic board.

Available from Pink Penguin Star on Etsy and you’ll get 7 day of the week magnets for $8.00!

How’s this for a shabby chic idea?
Etsy seller Vintage Inspiration has created this magnetic/dry erase board enclosed in a beautiful vintage frame. Hang this one proudly in your office or kitchen for easy viewing and use. I can just picture the fun you’ll have using this in your shabby chic decor.
Own it for $170 on Etsy >

And I couldn’t resist sharing this artistic and wonderful desktop organizer. Designer CarrieKim has created this “Keep it Together” for your desktop to put papers, folders, magazines, books, ect. inside and store small items on the outside using magnets and magnetic tins. Each “Keep it Together” piece is original and handmade using acrylic. She offers several color options for your modern decor. Check them out here >>
