The first item on my 2013 list of genealogy-related New Year's resolutions was to get the binders off of the floor space around my computer desk. And it's done! It is amazing how much better the space looks now.
I purchased these "magazine stands" from this website. Delivery took less than a week and they were easy to put together - I did both in under an hour. I love that they are just the perfect height so that I can place an open binder on top when I am doing research - previously, I had usually just kept it in my lap while mulled through search engines or updated trees on Ancestry.com. Standard-size binders fit JUST RIGHT, and the shelves, though thin, DO hold their weight well because they are slightly angled upward. I'm such a dork, but I don't know if I've ever been this excited over a piece of furniture.
