Home Office Ideas"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>Latest official government guidelines say those who can should be working from home, for the foreseeable while the outbreak of coronavirus settles down.<\/p>\n<p>We have turned our thoughts to making our home office space work more efficiently, because we might there for a while.<\/p>\n<p>Creating a dedicated office space in your home is often tricky unless you have a spare room in which to get organised and away from the children. But regardless of whether your space is large or small, organisation is key and that\u2019s where the best home office storage ideas come in handy. So take a look at Millennium SI&#8217;s top tips to get you started.<\/p>\n<h4>Repurpose where possible<\/h4>\n<p>We\u2019re probably not exactly in a state of mind to pop to Ryman or WHSmith to find desk organisers right now, but we still have storage needs? How about fining an alternative use for all the extra tin cans we\u2019ve amassed as a result of the recent news.<\/p>\n<p>Simply wash out your tin cans after use and use them as cost-effect savvy storage solution. Ensure there no sharp edges of course. Ideal if you have never needed to work form home and suddenly find yourself with a makeshift office.<\/p>\n<h4>Repurpose a chest of drawers for a printer<\/h4>\n<p>Just because you have to have this bulky office gadget handy to get the job done, doesn\u2019t mean it as to impose on your decor. By removing the bottom drawer from a chest of drawers you have the perfect stylish space to house a printer. For an extra decorative touch you can change the legs on the chest, to offer a less \u2018officey\u2019 look.<\/p>\n<h4>Use garden-centre buys inside<\/h4>\n<p>A trellis makes a brilliant noticeboard, even though its intended purpose was to support plants. Plant pots can be used to contain plants that will stimulate creativity. Or they can be handy containers for pens, art materials \u2013 even your phone.<\/p>\n<h4>Go pro with matching furniture<\/h4>\n<p>Coordinating pieces like this desk and bookcase say \u2018executive\u2019, as well as offering plentiful storage. The trick here is not to put your desk against the wall. Instead, place it in the middle of the room and voila \u2013 you\u2019ve made space for a bookcase. For a pop of colour (and fun) choose a large-scale rug with a quirky print.<\/p>\n<p>For more information and what you can do with your office space, contact us today!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Latest official government guidelines say those who can should be working from home, for the foreseeable while the outbreak of coronavirus settles down.
