Home office makeover ideas
One thing that was important to me was to add a little more coziness to my office work space. As mentioned yesterday, the other half of my space is a kitchen. So this can be a bit cold with wood laminate floors, and being surrounded by stainless steel.
Everyone online has been going crazy with the term “hygge“ this past few months, and even years. Basically it means comfort, and coziness.
How do you achieve comfort, and coziness in your home or home office?
- Adding warmth
- Things that make you feel safe
- Color
- Something that has meaning to you
- Functional
- Clean
- Organized
- Nature Inspired
Basically you are telling your mind that your space is comfortable, and it’s a soothing space. Before I hated working in my home office. I felt like I was stuck in a cold corner.
Ideas to freshen up your home office
Here’s a few ways we added more coziness to our space. I hope it gives you a few ideas for creating a more inviting office.
- Although I occasionally need blackout curtains for photography or to keep out the cold. I added window sheers for the natural sun to shine through the windows, adding warmth.
- Another thing I did was add a colorful area rug. My confetti teal shag rug *(other colors available) is on the side of my space that is only for the office or crafting.
- I love nature, and it’s my sanctuary for when my mind is stressed, or when I need to rejuvenate. I created a nature inspired wreath to my office wall. The tutorial will be coming soon but, you can see a few nature inspired wreaths on my grapevine wreath ideas page.
- I added a white faux fur throw to the back of the office chair. For two reasons to keep the cats from scratching the chair, and to add style. PS it feels nice too.
- I added a smile pillow. No matter how hard you work, you need to find time to smile. It’s a good reminder.
