Great ideas for setting up a home office

Setting up a home office can seem like a daunting task, but it doesn’t have to be that way. With a few simple ideas we can make a great office in the space we have. First we need to locate what area will work best. This might be a room devoted to the office space, but it could also be a smaller section of another room. We will want a place out of the direct traffic path so we are not constantly interrupted. We should also seek out a space that is quiet to help us concentrate. Once we have located the likely location then we are ready to outfit our new home office.

We will want a comfortable chair and a table for our laptop or tablet. Here are some great suggestions that will not take up a lot of space.
