{ 5 Tips for more Productivity & Creativity in your Office.

Hey everyone!!! Happy Wednesday..okay let's get right to it, so these last few months I fee like I haven't spent much time in my office, which is weird because I love my office...It's my creative outlet, our bunny runs free in there & it's MINE! I'm still doing the same amount of work, but it feels like I just haven't been in there much..Today I have been in here ALL day cleaning, organizing & well, writing up this blog post! So a few nights ago while out on a Target run with my sister I picked up some office supplies from the new Hearth & Hand collection...Yeah, don't go to Target after a few glasses of wine...eek! Anyways when I got home I decided after my splurge I would put these items to good use..or maybe I was just trying to convince myself I needed the items hahaha. Anyways today { Tuesday } I spent all day down here with the new items & decided I needed to put them to use in form of a post after I was finished updating, organizing & making my office freshened up!! Keep reading below for these SIMPLE tips..



1. Keep it BRIGHT.

For me this one is a bit tricky..My office is on our lower level { basement } & the light is shotty at best. For a brighter office I use 100 watt bulbs & keep both windows open for maximum light.

2. Add GREENERY.

This is a no brainer for my flower/ greenery loving heart haha! I decided since I was craving spring to bring in some vibrant hydrangeas splashed all over! My office isn't big, but it's cozy, bright & feels fresh with flowers! *See my guide to farmhouse & cottage greenery HERE



3. DECORATE your office. 

I know this goes against most post on productivity, but for more creative souls like myself I need decor. It helps keep things refreshed, fun & inspiring! Decorate your office with your small personal uncluttered touches & keep the color pallet light!



4. UPDATE equipment.

I'm almost embarrassed to type this as my equipment is super outdated!!! I think it stems from being lazy to transfer everything. I am in the works for a new computer SOON! The less equipment the best. Keep things simple & your desk only with things you use frequently!



5. Use ORGANIZING supplies.

This one is new to me. I usually don't buy into all the "organizational" tools etc..I tend to be pretty organized & a Type A." but this year as stated above I did buy a few thing to keep me even more on top of things. Again, keep it simple- things like planners, folders, journals, totes all help the clutter & creative juices flowing. Writing things down is a must in organization..or at least for me it is! 



What do you think about these super simple tips? Do you incorporate any of these tips into your office? I hope these tips will help you in some way this year!!
