    Office Decor

    April 19, 2013 by Ashley Mayes 8 Comments

    I showed my DIY Desk on Megan's blog on Wednesday and mentioned that I would be going over the decor today. I am definitely the type of person that needs decor to grow with me. Meaning, that I have to get used to things for a few weeks', move things around and get used to it again, etc. This is stage one on the office desk decor. It still feels a bit plain and simple, but I'm working on it.

    All the prints are free and I've listed the sources below.

    From Left to Right, Top to Bottom:

    "today is a good day" - Peter Loves Jane

    "lift up your head princess...if not the crown falls" - Peter Loves Jane

    "but first, COFFEE" - the mombot

    "We are all a little weird..." - Minted Strawberry

    "Simplify Everything..." - Mother Letters

    closeup of printable art 2Overall, I'm up to a grand total of $17 for decor.

    6 Clipboards - Dollar Tree $6

    Washi Tape - Michaels $3.22

    Little Trash Can - Target $7.99

    Vase, Bowl, Poof and Shoebox organizer - Already owned

    This little transformation sure beats having a computer on a folding table with junk everywhere. I'm happy.

      I love your office space! Such a clever way to hang prints-- I'm in love with it (and that large poof :))!

        Thanks Megan! The poof is a DIY and isn't perfect, but I love it. =)

      Love this... where did you get the actual desk from, if you don't mind me asking?

        Thanks! I actually made the desk. I showed a tutorial for it at Just for Me and You. If you end up trying it, please let me know! I would love to see the result. =)

        Overstock! If you go there and put in metal garden chair... I think it will pop right up. Thanks!
