HOW TO STYLE YOUR HOME OFFICE

Updating my office has been on my list to do during quarantine. And, I finally decided to just do it. I loved how it was set up, but I wasn’t doing any of my computer work in my actual office.

My Desk~

So, first on my list was to update the seating. I knew that I needed something bigger and more comfortable than the typical office chair. This chick likes to be comfortable. I searched a few websites, and I finally settled on this mid-century modern loveseat from Amazon. It wasn’t expensive but wasn’t really cheap either. But, the reviews were great.

I already had this desk. Mike built the top wood part of it. And, I ordered metal legs from Amazon. It’s 4 years old, and it is still in perfect shape. I’ll link a similar one that you can just put together yourself. More office details are linked here and here.

Wall shelves~

The next big project was building the shelves that I had envisioned to go above the loveseat. Again, Mike {my handy-man} measured the shelf length based on the length of the loveseat, and he bought the wood at Home Depot. He cut the wood shelves himself, and I bought the black L shape brackets on Amazon. I am linking identical wood shelves on Etsy if you don’t have a handy man. Doing it yourself saves a bit of money.

All of the plant pots were purchased from Amazon. I wanted them to be black, white or terra cotta. My favorites are here, here, and here. They have so many to choose from and the best prices. I found a few inside plants on Amazon and picked up a few more at Home Depot.

Hat wall~

I get messaged weekly about this wall.The top question is, “How do you hang your hats??”. Well, I just use clear tacks. If you don’t want to add a bunch of holes in your wall, a few of my friends use the Command hooks. Both work great. This is such an easy way to keep your hats organized and safe from getting bent. And, it’s a cheap way to decorate an empty wall.

Other accessories~

My Moroccan rug is a two years old and from Amazon. It’s still in stock.

The throw pillows are from Walmart.

My lamp is a few years old from Target, but I found a similar lamp on Amazon.

I did add a few pieces of art with these wood frames that add a little bit of character. I love everything on this website.

I added a few jewelry organizers to the decor on my desk and cabinet. That has helped me big time.

My desk calendar is simple yet perfect for me. I always snag a couple of these from Target.

I just got a cute fan from Amazon to place near my desk. It is amazing.

As far as other pieces in my office, I do have two clothing racks that I store all of my seasonal shoes and outfits.

My armoire is an antique, and I store all of my PR products and extra handbags in it.

Lastly~ My curtains were another new addition to the office. I knew that I wanted to take down the blinds and add some velvet black out curtains. And, gosh, this added the perfect, finishing touch to the room. The reviews were great, and I now know why.

For those that noticed my dress and blue light glasses, I’ll link those here (size down in the dress) and here.

Well, I hope that you enjoyed the office update, and I hope that it may inspire you to do the same to a room. I only had to buy a few things, and it transformed the entire feel/vibe of my office.
