If I can do it virtually I would be happy to help.
I actually love doing stuff like that.

OK, it's not as attractive as the magazine racks, but if funds are limited, I took cardboard boxes and set them up on one end on a shelf. They make decent dividers for a shelf and keep all the books from falling over when you take one out, but they are NOT very attractive..
Someone had a great idea of covering cereal boxes cut in the shape of magazine boxes with either fabric or wrapping paper. I had the thought to maybe decoupage them would make them stronger and you could do some cute things with a cereal box. Oatmeal containers store things well too. My kids love to decorate those.
I like to hunt in my basement for old junk to use in new ways that makes it not junk...hahaha! Anyway I loved the cereal box idea to make magazine files. I think I might have heard it here even.
Another thing you could do is get one of those large plastic boxes with a smaller box inside to separate your programs and stick your HOD in that. Then at the end of the day it all goes in the box and the box goes in a closet or a cabinet. You can also consolidate your kitchen and use a cabinet shelf as well. I have given up some of my kitchen space for some other things and it was painful at first but now I do not even notice it. If you have a pantry that would work too.
Just trying to think of some cheap organization. I used things I already had in my house and just moved the stuff inside someplace else. What is more important that school stuff anyway.
