I loved this little cubicle makeover that was included in an article about being happy at work, in the latest Body and Soul magazine. I recently (almost 2 years now) made the transition from flower girl with her own business to number crunching corporate girl. Luckily I found a company that believes in work/life balance (we even have a nap room!). Here’s a few lovelies I have at my desk to make each work day a bit prettier.
*fresh flowers
*metremade free downloadable wallpaper
*diana fayt calendar
*marimekko notepad in lime green
*sukie sticky notes
*a few of my polaroids
the green and white color scheme really does keep things cheerful and neat. lovely!
your space at work is so, so important!! it makes things so much easier when your surroundings are “you” and not corporate.
I love the green as well! I just bought myself some Russel & Hazel items for my desk as well as some organizing file boxes from CB2 and pencil cups from PB and it made such a huge difference to my small corporate working area.
i love this! i absolutely agree that a workspace has to be inspiring and feel like yourself. i put up lots of photos of my family and also postcards and photos i just really like. xo
*le sigh* unfortunately, i can’t really personalize my workspace. it’s a shared area (front desk – so there is a list of girls who cover it for me for an hour and a half every day), plus the guard who sits here at night squicks me out. i’m hesitant to bring my own cutesy supplies, because then everyone else will use them and/or they will go missing. hmph.
i DO personalize my pc desktop, though. it’s something, at least.
