The key to keeping little supplies like paper clips and post-its corralled and accessible is giving each type a very specific, limited-space home.  Instead of going out any buying a bunch of tiny containers, use what you’ve got and pretty it up!

I used the Stonyfield Oikos Greek yogurt 4oz container (I highly recommend the very tasty blueberry flavor), because 4 of the containers fit perfectly in my small plastic desktop drawers.  A few coats of blue spray paint, and voila!  You could even skip the paint if you’re putting the containers in a drawer where you’ll only see them from above.
