Desk Organizer Set
May 20, 2010 | Filed Under Household | 19 Comments
Nothing helps cheer up a tired disorganized desk as much as a pretty yet functional desk organizer. I was thrilled to add this 6 piece desk organizer set to my shop recently and couldn’t wait to introduce it to you. The only things that ever make it past my tough product criteria and into my shop are those things that meet my high picky standards. I like value, I like unique, I like pretty, I like functional and guess what? This product meets all those requirements, yay!
This sturdy paperboard set is bright, it’s fun, it’s floral AND it keeps you organized all at the same time! It completely speaks my love language 
I love this particular piece in the set….the letter holder. This is where I keep all my bills to be paid and any other actionable items. Love the colors!
The set also includes a collapsible storage box that fits CD’s perfectly or anything else that needs to be contained:
a magazine holder:
a pen holder:
It also includes a notepad holder and pencil:
AND a letter tray:
Six pieces, one set, a place for everything, all matching. Woohoo!!
As for the value. This set is available in my shop for $36.00 which I’m super excited about considering it retails for $55.00 on Amazon. Love that!

Does this set have orange on it? The inside looks orange and some of the flowers seem to be orange. At least on my monitor. Thanks.

Yes this does have orange on it and blues and pinks and greens. It’s really pretty!

You forgot to mention how it coordinates with your outfit. That is a big selling point right there. ;0)

Honestly it looks like junk. 1) The first piece is ok, but there sure isn’t anything special about it. 2) Those kind of boxes break easily. 3) Cut out any magazine articles you want to keep, store them in a binder, and throw out the magazines…far less clutter. 4) Pen holders tend to make people store a heap of pens that don’t work rather than just two or three quality pens that do work. Besides, this piece is not that sturdy looking and if I did get a pen holder, I’d buy a cheaper one that might actually have a chance of lasting in a house of four guys. 5) This piece is just more clutter to store. 6) This is ok but again I’d want something sturdier.
I want something to help be neat and tidy, not junk that takes up more space. I spent a lot of time reading your blog last night and you had so many great ideas. This one is a very expensive disappointment.

I totally disagree with you Aussiemama and think that this desk set is pretty cute and functional. I think the bright floral print is perfect for Spring and I know it would jazz up my boring office space. I also don’t think $36 is that expensive for a 6 piece set. I mean it’s $20 less than Amazon right?
Thanks for sharing this with us Laura! Can’t wait to see what you find for us next!

Not everything I showcase will be suitable for everyone. We all have different likes and dislikes and our individual criteria for how we pick the products we use and love will differ for sure.
I feature here the ones I myself use and enjoy and I absolutely love the fun design of this product. It definitely puts a smile on my face each day and I do find the material to be quite sturdy.

This set puts the FUN in functional! Very cute!!! As a scrapbooker, however, I would rather cover plain organizers to my taste. Great product though!

Laura, I sure do appreciate that different people like different stuff. I was just surprised, after everything I’ve read on here, that you would actually like this because for me it would make the clutter problem MUCH worse.
And sorry, but I ain’t paying $36 for CARDBOARD accessories. Those of you who think this is cheap must actually have money to spare to spend on stuff like this. I don’t even have the money I need for the basic organizational products I need. Then again, I wouldn’t pay $36 for this particular set if it was plastic or wooden either because it would clutter me up some more lol.
I will give it one thing…the print is pretty cool…
I don’t want it to seem like I’m all “down” on this blog though because I thought it was awesome. That’s why I added you to my blog roll. I guess even through reading it I haven’t gotten to know you well enough to know you’d like this.

Aw man! I want! Sadly, I’d have to wait!
I’ve been looking for something cute & charming to organize the crap outta my office, and this would be so perfect! BAH on money!

And Aussiemama…
Just because it won’t work for YOU doesn’t mean you need to put it down. She’s just sharing things that she finds fun! It’s her blog. You are entitled to your opinion, but when you come off as you have, it really does seem like you’re putting everything down, not just the item in the photo.
So it doesn’t work for you. Don’t buy it. Admire the pretty pictures and get over it. Go to Walmart and buy what works for YOU.
Be Blissful Always!

Any chance they will offer this in another color? (like a red/floral?) I have a real weakness for red items. I no longer buy anything for my kitchen or desk unless it is red or a red pattern. This set looks very useful.

Very functional, very cute, nice floral pattern, I like.

Gorgeous pattern! I am always looking for new organizing tools.

Oh…I really, really want this! Next on my “to order” list from your list of goodies Laura!!

That six piece set is really cute and is defiantly very functional. I have used items similar to some of those on my own desk and I could defiantly see a use for the whole set. Plus I love the pattern, I am always a fan of fun bright colors and patterns like that one.

This is very pretty. I love most of the desk organizing sets that I see, but I am looking for something that has a main color as red. I rarely see that in office stuff. At least where I’ve looked so far.

Looks nice. Stylish and functional!
