Upgrade Your Boring Workspace ~ Items You Need to Glamorize Your Cube Now

There is nothing more dreadful than having to inhabit a bleak, colorless box for 8 plus hours a day. Cubicles can be one of the least aesthetically pleasing work environments, especially when coupled with their equally grey, identical neighbors. This is supposed to be a year of individuality and self-work, so why can’t one’s workspace reflect just that? There is no written rule that (unless there actually) in which that dull little box has to actually remain depressing to gaze at. Personalizing your cube can give not only your workspace an overall makeover, but possibly even your work ethic as well.

If those rough fabric walls have become all too familiar, glam them up with witty prints and colorful pictures. Being surrounded by monotone empty walls all day can really bring down a businesswomen’s mood – so add in something colorful to look at every day.

What can be more refreshing than adding some life to your workplace, and by life that means REAL life. Spruce up the corners of your cube with little succulents and planters. They overly are easy to take care of and give a chic green spectrum to the lack-of- color scheme. For those who cannot take care of any form of living thing, worry not. Keep the natural earthy aspect alive with a small desk Zen garden. Not only are they pleasing to the eye, but they also can provide much needed stress relief for those tough Mondays. Coming in all shapes and sizes, find your own Zen or even DIY it for that extra personalized touch.

Desk accessories are a must when personalizing your cube.

Gold being more than in style at the moment makes for finding those few statement pieces almost seamless. A gilded stapler, polka dot pen holders, a decorative mouse pad and even special scissors can help add those small splashes of colors that is much needed in such a space.

Although, nothing is more personalized than bringing in your own photographs. Whether they be Polaroid’s, picture frames or even photo booth prints – seeing the face of a loved one every day can put a smile on almost anyone’s face. Also, printed out photographs can be arranged in artsy ways as well which can give an artistic character to the space.

Personalizing your cube can give each day in that tiring little space the life it needs. Make it your own by adding a unique flare – whether it be in the form of a paperweight or completely decked out walls.
