This post is about easy home office organization ideas on a budget.
I have been working at home since COVID, but I’ve always had a dedicated space for an office. For a while, it was a built-in desk on our upstairs landing in our old home before I converted one of our bedrooms to a home office. In our current home, I also took over one of the bedrooms.
When it comes to office supplies, I haven’t always been that organized. On my desk itself, I was organized but all of my extra office supplies (paper, extra pencils and pens, clips, etc.) were thrown in big plastic bin. I think I threw stuff in a bin during one of our moves and just never unpacked them!
I needed some easy home office organization that didn’t cost a fortune. Read below to learn about my easy office organization ideas that won’t break the bank!
Home Office Storage Solutions
Office Plastic Organizing Drawers
A plastic storage tower with drawers is absolutely perfect for organizing office supplies. I didn’t need anything fancy, and this fits the bill perfectly. Use the top drawers for pens, pencils, markers, and other small office supplies. The larger drawers are perfect for storing paper, folders, and more.
I also store greeting cards and gift bags in this organizer. I keep gifting items on hand, so I don’t have to run out every time a special occasion arises. Amazon and Target are the perfect place to buy greeting cards and gift bags. Stock up so you’re always prepared!
Drawer Organizers
Whether in a desk drawer or in a bin drawer, drawer organizers will keep all your office supplies in perfect order. Use drawer organizers to store like items together so they’re easier to find. This set comes with 13 pieces that you can arrange in different ways. I love these organizers so much, I own 3 sets! I use them to organize office supplies, skin care, and bathroom toiletries.

Office Organization Labels
Organization labels are not only adorable, but they make it super easy to know exactly where things are. These pre-printed water-resistant labels from Amazon give you tons of options to label your school or office supplies.
File Organizer
A file organizer is great for keeping folders, mail, and papers organized on your desk. I prefer upright file organizers with labeled folders to keep my important papers organized. I’m on a gold kick right now, so I found a cute one on Amazon (which is now sold out). Check out my curation below of similar file organizers!

File Folders
File folders with labels not only add a sleek design element to your office decor, but they are great for organizing important paperwork. Zazzle is my go-to for cute file folders. Choose from a variety of prints and colors. I’ve curated my favorite folders below!
1. Navy Striped Folders | 2. Navy Check Folders | 3. Modern Pattern Folders | 4. Nautical Striped Folders
Pen Holder
While I keep extra pens, pencils, and markers in a storage tower, I always keep a few in a pen holder on my desk. It’s great to have options within arm’s reach! Keep the ones you use most often in a pen holder on your desk for easy access.
