Organize stylishly with Martha Stewart Home Office for Avery at Staples Canada

As some of you may know, we moved last week. As I type this we are still surrounded by many boxes and there are still many things I can't find (note to self - next move, write on every box EXACTLY what is in every box).

One of the joys of this move was setting up our desk with Martha Stewart Home Office for Avery products, which are exclusively found at Staples Canada.

Do you remember that awesome feeling of fresh notebooks and new pencil crayons from school? Or am I the only nerd who loved the smell of a brand new eraser? Setting up my new desk space with these fabulous products gave me the same sort of organized, fresh-start feeling.

Which is important, because in about six weeks I return to work (insert big frowning emoticon here). I was starting to get nervous about how I will handle working full-time with posting on this blog, in addition to all of my motherly (and other) responsibilities. Thankfully with the help of these products I am more organized and my time will be well spent when I get time to focus on my blog.

The various notepads and notebooks are well made - and are easily ripped out if you need to take just that sheet of paper somewhere. I have already started multiple "to do" lists.

The Stack + Fit Desk Accessories tided all my office supplies easily and stylishly.

And this line of products organized much more than just my desk - we use the Magnetic Note Pad and Dry Erase Decal on the fridge, to jot down things with both have to remember, from important dates to buying more hand soap.

We also use the Large Shagreen Double Pocket for bills, receipts and important letters.

The products were so easy to use, you literally open the package, put it where you want it and voila, you're done.

Going back to work is going to be hard on a multitude of levels, but at least my home will be organized thanks to the Martha Stewart Home Office for Avery line.

You can also check out the Martha Stewart Tips and Ideas at Staples website for helpful tips on how to use the products to their full advantage.

How do you keep your desk/home office organized?

Disclosure: I received Martha Stewart Home Office for Avery products from Staples Canada to review for the purpose of the post. As always, the opinions and language on my blog are all my own.

Staples Canada Teacher Appreciation Days 2012

The renowned Teacher Appreciation Days will be held at every Staples Canada location nationwide on August 9, 16, 23 and 30, 2012.

On Teacher Appreciation Days, educators will save 15% off in-store purchases, receive 10% back in easyRewards Savings for Education, and get a free gift bag. Teachers can also participate in an exclusive online contest featuring a 2012 Toyota Prius v as the grand prize and chances for $2,500 or $500 Staples shopping sprees. The contest is currently running until August 31, 2012. Teachers can find more information and enter online at www.staples.ca/teachers (www.bureauengros.com/enseignants). (I have a lot of teacher friends and family, so I hope if one of them wins they'll take me for a ride in their new car.)

As an added perk for teachers needing a new back-to-school wardrobe, teachers will also receive a $25 coupon towards their purchase of $75 or more at Sears Canada (some exclusions apply) when they shop in-store at any Staples location on August 16, 23 and 30.
