How To Keep Your Workspace Working For You

After a long winter, spring is finally here! The snow is melting, the birds are chirping and the days are getting longer. Bring that fresh spring feeling to your workspace with 3 quick and easy spring cleaning tips.

1. Clean your keyboard… like right now.

When was the last time you cleaned your keyboard? If you can't remember, we have some cringe-worthy news: keyboards are dirtier than a toilet seat. (seriously, Google it) But don’t fret! We've got the quick fix—grab a wet wipe and give your keyboard a good wipe down. It's quick and easy and will leave your keyboard looking spick and span!

2. Tidy up your work drawers.

We all tend to have a drawer, (or two, or five) that accumulates post-its and various office supplies that never have a proper home. If sorting through that drawer is proving difficult, it’s probably time to purge. First, empty the drawer and donate or toss the things that are no longer needed. Next, place some organizers into the space to help keep similar things together. Now that everything has a proper spot, it’ll make finding your favourite pen much easier.

3. Hide everything else, with style.

Sometimes there are supplies that need to be easy to reach but take up space on your desk. Minimize clutter and freshen up your desk by stashing rogue office supplies in a printed storage bin. It not only tidies your workspace, but also gives it some personality (extra points if you find a matching mousepad!)
