Your home office should be a welcoming, productive environment, but for many of us that simply isn’t the case. Let’s face it — our home offices get messy. Without coworkers looking over our shoulders, we let things slide. Sometimes, we don’t even bother with a desk at all and choose to work from the couch instead. If your desk situation isn’t working out, don’t go out and buy a new home office suite. Grab your tools, roll up your sleeves, and try one of these DIY desk ideas.
