Saving the Earth and Saving Money

I was a bit irked that my desk at home only has 1 drawer (which is quite shallow) and that there are no additional shelves provided... That meant that my desk is usually quite cluttered, since I can't put food stuffs into my cupboard...

So... I did a bit of improvisation and here's what my desk looks like:
Yes I used the box that my water boiler came in and made myself a shelf...

Here it is close-up... I didn't have any twine at home (not yet) so I used a rolled up plastic bag and threaded it through the edge for extra support...

Then I got random and decided to make something out of some extra card board left, and the cup holder I got from my drink during lunch... so... I made a handphone/stationery holder:
Also, my desktop dustbin is now stuck to the side of my fridge to free up space on the desk...

Yay for saving the earth and saving money... I just need to find a shop that sells twine and then I can do something for hanging/airing clothes...
