WFMW – Create more surface space on a bedside table

For this week’s Works for Me Wednesday (hosted by Rocks in My Dryer), I have a pretty short, easy tip.  :)

You know how those little bedside tables look cluttered with just a hefty radio clock and a lamp?  Sometimes there’s no room left for even a cup of water or some books!  I solved that problem with a simple little plastic paper receptical used in offices.  Just flip over the little “inbox” tray and slide your alarm clock (or stack of books” under it.  The flat surface above can then be used as more flat space to rest cups, reading glasses, a small basket, books or a lamp on.

It works for me. :)   For more handy household tips, check out this week’s Works for Me Wednesday.

  8. Very cute and practical idea!

  9. I love this idea. I actually did something similar when I was recovering from a broken ankle and spent a lot of time in bed. I used a 2-tray vertical desk organizer made of rattan and wrought iron. It was so useful to keep all of the medicines and papers I needed close-by, buy neat.
