I love pretty things. I especially love pretty things in my office. I’m just so inspired and motivated when I am able to look around and see beautiful things all around my office. Recently, I had the opportunity to move offices and I must say, I am totally into chic office decor right now. My old office was a very drab, very corporate setting. There was no color, no personality, and it was just so stuffy. I was so excited when I saw my new office for the first time. It too was very boring but I have more license to spruce it up a bit in my new building. I’ve been on a pretty office decor & supply shopping mission!

I’ve put together this list of pretty office decor to help inspire you to spruce up your own space. If you are going to be in your office for eight hours a day, you might as well enjoy the space!

Desktop organizer

I love this desktop organizer!  First of all, it is so pretty and spruces up my drab desk. Not only is it adorable, but It is also very functional.  It comes with a detachable phone stand/business card holder, includes a monthly and yearly calendar, has a pen holder, and a pocket for notes or receipts. I love sticking important info and inspirational quotes under the mat so they are always handy.

pretty coffee mug

I don’t know where I would be without my coffee.  I have two toddlers so the world without coffee is a very sad, sad,  tiring world. What is better than coffee?Coffee in a pretty mug. I just feel so Sex & the City-ish sitting there in my office with my chic cup of coffee tapping away at the keyboard. Nothing can stop me!   Bring it on day!

Inspirational art

I love quotes and inspirational sayings. Sometimes you just need a little pick me up to keep you going through a tough day. These desk cards are a cute complement to any office and will keep you inspired and motivated all week long. There are twelve different cards so you can rotate them depending on your mood/day.  I LOVE the gold stamping paired with the pretty colors. So fancy!   These are a perfect complement to your office decor.

wireless speaker

Silence creeps me out. I have to be listening to something all the time. This cute little Bluetooth speaker is amazing to listen to music, podcasts, or even conference calls. The rose gold color is perfect with my office decor. I also love that it is on the smaller side so it is perfect for a cubicle or smaller office as well.

cute office supplies

I am probably the biggest nerd I know. Some of my favorite memories growing up involved back to school shopping. I just loved going to the store to buy my new school supplies. Finding the perfect binder, smelling the fresh paper, getting everything nice and organized in your new backpack. The stuff that dreams are made of. Needless to say, that love for office supplies has not gone away. I’m an absolute sucker for a pretty stapler, just like this one. This set is super adorable and perfect to fit your office decor.  Pretty, yet functional!

Planner/organizer

I love this planner. Not only is it pretty, but it does an awesome job of helping you identify your goals, identify ways to achieve them, and hold you accountable.   Most people don’t write down what they want to achieve let alone how they plan on achieving it. Study after study shows that those that write down their goals are more likely to achieve them.   This planner includes a Life Set-Up Guide, commitment contract, yearly/quarterly goal plans, monthly and weekly planning pages, and relaxing coloring mandalas.   My favorite part is that 5% of this company’s profit goes to helping children in Tanzania.

 

Hopefully, this gets your office decorating juices flowing. Now get out there and start making your office beautiful!

    I love your selection ! I am so bad though, I have bought so many things for my office but they ended up in a closet/drawer and I work most of the time from my living room (garden view+fresh air vs street view+toasty …) I should work on making a nice space though in order to spend more time there and hopefully be more creative !

We didn’t get a lot of virtual learning done tod We didn’t get a lot of virtual learning done today, but we did learn a lot. 💕
Let’s talk employee engagement... What a lot Let’s talk employee engagement... What a lot of leaders and business owners don’t realize is employee engagement is the #1 factor in business success. You can have the best product, in the best market, but if you don’t have engaged and committed employees, you can only go so far. Just think of the most successful companies-  sure, they may have an awesome product or value-prop.  But what likely sets them apart is a group of dedicated employees that are committed to the work and bringing that vision to life. For example- let’s look at Disney.  Disney world is a theme park.  There are plenty of theme parks. But who is behind the scene creating that Disney magic?  Engaged employees actively seeking out opportunities to delight and wow their guests. When you are thinking about how to grow your business- first assess your own and your team’s engagement.  Do you have a vision and mission that is easy to understand and follow?  Do you make it easy for employees to bring this vision to life? Do you listen and empathize with them? Starting with those questions will ensure that you have the most powerful tool in good working order, which will multiply your success. What is a time that you have been engaged at work? Do you feel that it improved your performance and ultimately the success of your company?
Just think about it- every single failure you have Just think about it- every single failure you have experienced made you wiser.  Failure makes you more resilient, stronger, more resourceful.  What has been the biggest lesson you have learned from failure?
Learning this more each year! Learning this more each year!
I always try to remind myself of this in the darke I always try to remind myself of this in the darkest of times.
Sometimes you just have to dig your heels in and g Sometimes you just have to dig your heels in and get dirty.  However, when you struggle the reward is that much sweeter. ..Tell us a time that you really struggled for something.  What was the reward?
