Is your desk piled under lots of paper and other office supplies? If it is, this knex desk organizer is just the thing for you! It has a few shelves to put your paper on, a "cup" to put your pens in, a box without a lid to put your sticky notes in, and a rod to slide your paper clips on. Once you make this, you will be able to see your desk again!
