My office at work is so BLAH. It's messy and dark and unfinished. I want to make it cute and happy since I spend most of my awake hours here.
Show me your desk! Doesn't have to be cute or clean, I just want to see what you all are working with

Here's mine! See how dark it is in here? And that is my fireplace that I'm avoiding painting. One day..

I work out of a home office. Half the time it's my house, and half the time it's not. Today I'm at my boss's house.

@MrsTiz: You have a fireplace in your office?? Nice!!!
Mine is just a typical desk!

Here's the messy side of the room. It actually looks good right now. We have a lot of clients.

@MrsTiz: Can you get a floor lamp, maybe for either side of the desk? I think that would provide a lot of light without cluttering your desk.

@T.H.O.U.: ..I have never thought of that lol! That is actually a very good idea!

@Leialou: You don't even want to see the messy half of my office. It's out.of.control.

I want to find a better way to display some photos. Maybe over the top of my monitor.
As you can see, there is a huge window behind me which is nice for natural light, but causes really bad glare

@T.H.O.U.: That's what I want to do too, I want to get some pictures in here.. Maybe in a banner on your board above your monitor?
I kinda want to paint my cork board too

@MrsTiz: that stripey cork board is too cute!!
Here's another view of my prison cell!

@MrsTiz: You could also look at getting a cart or table to put next to your desk for some extra storage. Maybe set your phone on top of that? I love that what I "look at" is just my computer (95% of my work) but I have to my side (and out of sight) papers and my phone and stuff like that.

@cmomma17: Why don't you put your computer/monitor in front of that striped wall? I can't stand having my monitor under those cubical cabinets.

@T.H.O.U.: I never thought of that! This is just how it was set up when I got here.
Although, it's more of a privacy issue. I try to keep my screen turned so people entering my cubicle can't see what I'm working on. We deal with a lot of confidential issues (and nosy students without boundaries) and I'm in an open cubicle at the very front of the office (high traffic).
I will definitely think about it though!

@cmomma17: What about having it in the corner of the wall and the other cube wall? Kinda like where my black windows computer is in my picture?

@T.H.O.U.: you know, that might work!
I could really use a change of scenery here ... this might be my new summer project!

Mine's in our living room. I am aiming to create a much cuter workspace but we're (hopefully!) moving soon so I'm waiting. Please ignore the pile of papers waiting to be shred.
