Collecting the Sox: Office Supplies

You work in an office. All day long, you sit at your desk computing, or drawing, or reconfiguring data. Your desk and cubicle is where you spend most of your waking hours. You certainly need that space to reflect your love and adoration of the Red Sox. But, how do you do that? Can you cover your desk with action figures? Jars of salsa? Maybe not. So, how do you promote your favorite team, while keeping that professional appearance?

Office Supplies.

Sure, you could use Red Sox pens or pencils at your desk. That would be a nice start. But, there are so many other places you can go with it. What about a pencil holder? You can either get one specifically made for the purpose, or convert another Red Sox item like a mug or ice cream carton. How about a mouse pad? Those are starting to go the way of bookshelves. But, while they’re around, those can have a Red Sox flair to them too. Need a place on your desk to put a picture of your family? Might as well use a Red Sox picture frame.

The point is, there are any number of things you can get for your desk that will add to your Red Sox collection. Like any good collectable, they have variety both in look and price points. You can try and collect as many different mouse pads as you can. Or, you can see how close to a complete desk you can get. Can you find a mouse pad, stapler, pencil holder, clock, frame, and on and on. You can try and focus on a favorite player. Or, pick one of the championship seasons and work with those.

Whether it’s a home office, or an office office, there are plenty of Red Sox collectables out there that can spruce up a workspace.
