Fall is officially upon us, and you know what that means—it’s time to kiss the warm summer nights goodbye and start preparing for the colder seasons ahead. For the majority of us, fall symbolizes a fresh beginning–a time to gear up and get organized for the upcoming holiday season. Since fall is also representative of the new school year, we’ve compiled a list of five ways that you can better prepare your home office for the busy times ahead.

1. Invest in the essentials. When I think of the school season, my mind immediately reverts back to spending the day shopping for school supplies with my mom. It was a sacred time—an occasion that I had always treasured. Nowadays, I like to do all of my “back to work” shopping online, since I find it easier to search for trendy items, at the lowest price possible. Take a look at our back to school picks and get to shoppin’!

2. Let it float. Hang two or three floating shelves in your home office for more storage space. Shelves are the perfect spot for personal memoirs such as picture frames, books, and succulents. Want to earn bonus points? Attach a gift wrapping station (pictured below) to promote more creativity throughout your day! You never know when you might need it!
