Tricks and Treats Blog Hop!

The Elementary Entourage is having a blog hop, and we're excited to be a part of it!

First up, a trick!

This trick comes from Laura, who is constantly trying to get or stay organized if even just for a few seconds. The problem? I saved stuff on my computer and couldn't ever figure out where it went. Downloads? Documents? Outer space?

The solution came when the world of desktop organizers came into view. Hallelujah! Now, I can save everything on my desktop! And then file it after I'm finished. It's my own little virtual corner. Let me show you how it works.

Here is the screen of my laptop. I've broken everything up into Current Projects, Most Used, and Other. The background is just a picture that I set, and then I dragged the icons into the appropriate boxes. Easy peasy!

Current Projects is on the left and contains everything I'm working on that will have a completion - at some time. This is the most moveable section. It includes my testing schedule, units to make, and notes.  After I'm finished, I can file these items into folders in Documents. The desktop makes it easy to find everything that's current quickly without searching.

Most Used is exactly what it sounds like. It has shortcuts, templates, and forms I will use all year. 

And then there's an Other, because Other is always an option. These are the computer-y things that I really don't know what they do. Since Technology put them on, I guess they are important. Well, I do know what Boardmaker does, I just don't use it on this computer much.

You can find many desktop organizers online and in TpT. All Y'all Need has two options for you - and they're free! Just go to Organization Wallpaper for Desktops in our store!

And now, Lisa has a treat for you!
