Assembly Instructions
The Jerry & Maggie Desktop Organizer is designed for easy assembly. Follow these steps carefully:
- Unpack Components: Carefully remove all parts from the packaging. Lay them out on a clean, soft surface to prevent scratches.
- Identify Parts: The organizer consists of two main sections. Identify the individual shelf panels and side supports. While pieces are not individually labeled, their shapes and pre-drilled holes will guide assembly.
- Assemble Section 1: Using the provided screws and screwdriver, attach the shelf panels to the side supports for the first section. Ensure the screw heads are flush with the surface by aligning them with the indentations.
- Assemble Section 2: Repeat the process for the second section of the organizer.
- Combine Sections: Once both sections are assembled, place them together in your desired configuration. The two sections are designed to interlock or sit adjacent to each other without additional screws to allow for adjustability.
- Final Check: Ensure all connections are secure and the organizer is stable before placing items on it.

Usage and Configuration
The Jerry & Maggie Desktop Organizer is highly versatile, allowing for multiple configurations to suit your needs. It consists of two independent shelf units that can be arranged in various ways.
Adjustable Configurations:
- Extended Layout: Place the two sections side-by-side to create a longer shelf, ideal for wider desks or multiple items. This configuration can extend up to 22.3 inches (56.6 cm).
- Retracted Layout: Overlap the two sections to create a more compact unit, suitable for smaller workspaces. This configuration can retract to a minimum length of 13 inches (33 cm).
- L-Shape/Corner Layout: Arrange the sections at a 90-degree angle to fit into a corner or create an L-shaped storage solution.
- Stacked/Tiered Layout: Position one section on top of the other for vertical storage, maximizing height.
- Separated Units: Use the two sections as individual organizers in different areas.

- Sunlight Exposure: Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight to prevent fading or discoloration of the wood finish.
- Weight Distribution: Distribute weight evenly across the shelves to maintain stability and prevent warping.
