hey guys, get ready for a question you might not see every day.

i have had this setup for about 3 months now,
a pretty huge 220 cm wide by 90 cm depth custom made desk, with on it my pc, 2 screens, old fat tv and an xbox.
now here is my question:

i have A LOT of random stuff that i do not need every day but some i do need every day, all this stuff is all over over my desk now.
it's not really disturbing my pc time but it certainly doesn't look good.
now i want to ask you guys, what is a good way to put all this random stuff away but still make it easily reachable?
i have thought about some nice cabinets but my room is also not that big, i already have some cabinets with drawers where i have stuff in but they are all full.

so, do you have any idea's to make more space?
or should i just do a BIG clean out so i have more places my stuff can go?
other idea's are welcome too!

thanks in advance.

I would keep the two monitors, pc, tv, xbox, keyboard, mouse & mousepad on the desk.

I would move everything else to some cabinets or if you do not need a certain item, throw it out.

See if you can find ones small enough to fit under your table.
I would just do a full clean out, get it nice and tidy. Maybe get a small table or cabinet to store things you don't/will use in the future. Also, a picture would be nice.
 
I think everyone has this problem, hahah. Just look at each individual thing that is cluttering your desk and think of a good place it could go depending on how often you need to use it. Things you need to use very often could stay but things you only need a couple times every week could go in a cabinet or drawer.
 

Move that old TV somewhere else, it'll probably clear some room. After that, you can spread out your other things nice and neatly along the desk.
 


i have thought about that, but i like to watch tv in my room sometimes (or use it as background noise while gaming) and there is no space left to place it, i thought about getting another screen for my pc and switch HDMI cables whenever i want to watch tv, i have a recorder that converts a tv in to HDMI out so it's not impossible.
but don't really have that big of a budget either, the screen i want then costs 120 euro, it's the same as my main screen, but i don't have the money for that atm.
