There are many upsides to working from home. Perhaps one of
the best ones is overlooked time and time again: comfort! Comfort serves as an excellent accessory to promote efficient work ethic
and should be admired when working from home. Remember that your home workspace
is just that! YOUR home workspace. That means all the comforts of home
can be a part of a sometimes stressful environment. It is important to include
items in your workspace that serve in both function and personality including
desks, tables, and chairs. Choose a chair that works with your character, and
make sure that it provides the comfort necessary for long hours at the
computer. One of our favorite themes to see utilized in a home office space is an
antique design. If you happen to notice an unconventional desk that you think
might work for you, try it out! Also remember to display items that can help
personally motivate you throughout the work day. A funny or motivation quote
framed on a nearby shelf often does the trick when stuck in a memory fog, or needing inspiration. The
perks of not being confined to a cubicle are endless!
Keeping a home office organized can sometimes seem like a
daunting task. One of the best inventions to help keep papers, office supplies,
and mid-day snacks separated and organized is a small catchall tray. These trays
can be moved throughout the office, stacked when items are finished, and useful
for filing and sorting. Our favorite part about small catchalls? They come in
all different shapes, sizes, colors, and material. Choose a catchall that helps
soothe the stress of a desk stacked with loose papers, staples, contracts, pens, and keys. Some of our favorite catchall trays include these Pottery Barn
picks:
Can’t find your pens, scissors, or letter openers when you
need them? This is yet another opportunity to exercise your creative vision!
Utilize a fun mug or pot to serve as the designated area for these small, yet
important items to be stored. A universal holder can be placed on your desk,
close at hand.
Get organized and see how it makes your work from home life smooth!
