Chances are, you use your home office for some important stuff. You might take care of all your financial documents, organize your life, work on your blog, spend hours on Facebook and play PC games there. We’re not judging, we just know you need to make sure it’s a place of peace. A place of inspiration and fun, not a boring, whitewashed office you dread going to.
We’ve got a few suggestions to upgrade your home office, so the next time you have to do your tax returns, you can do it with a smile!

1.
Add a touch of green

It’s all about creating a living space. Whether you’re the kind of girl who wants plants in every corner, or you just want to embrace Pantone’s shades of green and add a couple of natural colors, you’ll feel the benefits. Firstly, adding plants to your office will improve the air quality and improve your mood and concentration. Secondly, shades and tones of green are supposedly the most restful for the human eye, so will help you feel calm and balanced.

2.
Create your gallery wall

If your desk is against a wall, why not take the opportunity to make your vision board come to life. Frame photos and art prints that give you a certain feeling, make sure they go with your decor theme and make you feel inspired and ready to get sh*t done!

Organization doesn’t have to be boring

In order to create an inspiring space, you need to keep it tidy, which is often easier said than done. Forget standard folders and boxes, get yourself a copper metal basket or a magnet board, fill your room with things you’ll actually want to use to organize your life – and forget everything else.

Embrace Pinterest

We’re all guilty of getting our best decor ideas from Pinterest. While we 100% recommend getting inspired, don’t go overboard, remember to pick and choose specific elements from the photos that you like and incorporate them into your own office. Our favorite office trend? Faux fur seats. Comfortable and stylish!
