Simple Office Storage

February 16, 2015 by Fotini Filed Under: design, diy, home office, office storage, simple storage solution, storage box 13 Comments

What I love about decorating my office, is I literally had a blank space that I got to decorate! But, in the same breath, that means I have to find items that provides adequate storage and has an affordable price tag! I’m still not done decorating and rearranging my office, so until then I’m just sharing little bits and pieces with you!

While at Jo Ann Fabrics, I picked up this cute light pink photo box for $3. I’m not sure if it’s just the times, or what, but I’m loving gold accents. I knew that just by simply painting the chrome label gold that would give this little box an entire new look! So, that’s just what I did! Using Decoart elegant finish in glorious gold, I carefully painted the chrome label, allowing it to completely dry between coats. I did a total of 3 coats. And it was done! Just like that, I have a chic little box for all my odds and end pieces that usually end up sitting on my desk!What I love about these photo boxes is they look adorable stacked on top of each other or simply by them selves. They’re great for photos (obvi), craft paints, writing utensils, stickers, thank you and note cards, chargers (computer, camera, iPhone, etc.) and so much more! So what do you think? A pretty, simple storage solution, right?

Hello beautiful! This has been a very productive week around our house! The kids have had a couple of snow days and temps have been terribly cold, like -4. If you’re following me on Facebook or Instagram, you know I am finally working on my home office! And of course, sharing sneak peeks as I go ♥ ♥ This week, with my home office in mind, I have been completely ga-ga over adding leopard accents! I have always been a big fan of leopard, so I’m so excited to finally incorporate it into my home!
Are you ready to get inspired? Let’s do it!

Fab Pins of the Week

Hello beautiful ♥ Happy Friday!! I’m so thrilled it’s the weekend! I’m looking forward to spending time with my hubby and family! Do you have anything fun planned? Have your little one’s started back to school yet? Mine go back Tuesday. Did you get the chance to check out the free printable I made for the first day of school? Don’t miss it 😉 
I’m still obsessing over my office design. I am just itching to get it started!!! I’m still not 100% back on my feet from spraining my ankle, so I’m taking it slow. I’m gathering as much inspiration as I can! I am goo-goo for gold! That is one of the must-haves in my design!

Fab Pins of the Week!

August 8, 2014 by Fotini Filed Under: decor, fab pins of the week, home, home office, home office design, Pinterest Leave a Comment

Hello gorgeous! It’s Friday, whoop whoop! Do you have any exciting plans for this weekend? I’m hoping to cross of at least a couple of current projects off my list! I tend to get myself into numerous projects at once, and then I get frustrated when I have to finish them all. Do you ever do this?
I’m in full swing of gathering inspiration for my home office, which I will begin to design late Summer/early Fall. I am still having a hard time as to finding exactly what I want! I tend to take my decorating slow, so once I start to get some major pieces in there, I think things will start to fall into place! Meanwhile, here’s what’s been inspiring me this week!

Fab Pins of the Week

January 10, 2014 by Fotini Filed Under: bright colors, brights, home design, home office, Pinterest Leave a Comment

T.G.I.F! With two snow days to start the week, I feel like my week has been cut short, but I’m embracing the weekend despite it!
Any exciting plans for the weekend? I left the house decorated for Winter in general after taking my Christmas stuff down, but now I’m over it and spending the day taking that all down! Oh, the joys of decorating ♥  ♥ 

 

Color is what has been inspiring me this week, so let’s get to it…

1. This gorgeous bright floral chair would be the perfect statement piece for my soon-to-be office! The variety of colors makes it easy to go with many colors! I’ve been torn on whether do decorate my office in pastels or brights. This chair has me thinking brights…. 🙂
2. I am really in love with accenting with gold! I love this beautiful matte gold table lamp! It’s the perfect touch to this desk, and I imagine the entire office! The charming, sleek design of this lamp is very flattering to any office and a must-have for mine!!
3. More gold accents! Picture frames and printables are a simple and super affordable way to add charm and class to your office space! Not to mention, you can change out the printables as often as you want! I love the pops of the bright pink post it notes in the back too! Such a simple concept, yet bold impact! 
4. Fresh flowers!! Always a must… You can dress up any room just by adding fresh flowers! I love this sea foam blue glass, it makes the color of this gorgeous peony stand out even more! Imagine how perfect it would look on a beautiful white table!
