The office essentials we can't live without! What are yours?

Well, for starters, we are too small just yet to have a water cooler. So we like to crack open a can of Polar flavored seltzer instead. We couldn't function at all without good, strong coffee, so thank you Nespresso and the fabulous milk frother. We like to consider ourselves organized, and rely on Martha Stewart's office collection for Avery, found at Staples. Martha has created Sea Glass color-coordinated notebooks that we bring to every client meeting to take notes. The magazine file holder is from the Container Store (we have several files in our office), and help keep the green client folders and business folders in view and in order. The folders cost twenty cents each at Staples, and we label them on the front so we know which folder we are grabbing. Extra Gum is for chewing to zap coffee breath before we meet with clients. The jar of sea glass, is our growing inspiration. This collection was started this summer and is loaded with happy, relaxing memories. Everybody loves finding sea glass on the beach. So, now you know what makes our office tick. What quirky things make your office special?
