We don't have many choices for open filing systems up here in Humboldt.<br /><br />I would caution against the Studio carts because they are open on the sides, which means papers are more likely to slip out the sides. But then, no system is necessarily perfect. One of my dearest clients has an open filing cart, but then doesn't use it because she's covered it with a cloth and piles papers on top of it! As I've said many times, the best system in the world won't work if we don't use it, and sometimes we need to practice awareness so that we can learn new behavior that supports our being organized.<br /><br />Claire Josefine<br />author of The Spiritual Art of Being Organized,<br />Earth-Friendly Organizing, and<br />Following Raven, Finding Ground: A Road Trip in Search of Home<br />Founder and moderator of the Simple and Sustainable Organizers Yahoo! group<br />www.clairejosefine.comClaire Josefinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01919368605456772712noreply@blogger.com
