Adding Life To My Office

...yes you read it right!

Since I started with my new job I'm not sure if I've told you this but gosh...my new office ROCKS! I love it. It would pass for space harmony so easily...okay, fine let me quote my friend, it'd pass feng shui so naturally. It's just superb!

The only thing is...I am the only breathing object there...thus explains the title of this post.

By now most of you know how I love to garden...and that greenery is always a passion of mine so it is just expected of me to put plants in my office...right?! ;) Well, I've been meaning to do so and I just need to take that very first step - buy a planter! Okay, planters as I'm sure I'd putting several and I love to rotate colors and designs so definitely I'd be shopping for several planters.

I need indoor planters and more so decorative planters. Just to add life to my office...make it decent enough and as lovely as the lady inside...I mean as lovely as I am. LOL

I hope to get scratch this off my list over the weekend and I am so excited to show you my office! When I am done.

Details

...are what the eye fastens on and remembers!

IT Guy is out of town the whole week. He took an 8AM flight this morning and will be back Saturday morning. I am frowning a bit at this trip for several reasons. This morning he told me he will be asking something from me that will preoccupy for the rest of week. He is asking me to help him with his office make over.

Yes, you read it right -- OFFICE MAKEOVER!

Well...it is not an easy task. But I have to admit, my heart jumped in anticipation...LOL

IT Guy's office is quite big for an office...considering he is the only one staying there. He can have a group meeting/ conference inside if he wants too! Yet he has a conference room too. My mind is racing as what I'll put on his office...how I'd re-arrange the exiting fixtures and what other fixtures I need to add!

I wish I have a photo to show you on his existing office. But well, just say it is a mess. For my taste and category...it is a mess. It needs a makeover indeed.

So the first thing I did this morning is go over the net to get ideas on what fixtures I can bring into his office...something classy...presentable yet practical. I get to this retail store fixtures and they just have an amazing collection of fixtures to choose from. Not only they're very good for stores which are newly opened or newly renovated...but their items can also be used in any business offices...up to home use. How cool is that?!

I saw this very chic nesting table.

This will be good on the far right side of his office...where the long couch is...it's ecru so the colors will just blend.

Within his personal area (not sure yet if it will be at his side or back) he can also make use of some racks for literature displays.

I also saw a pretty wood flower cart! I have to admit the first time I saw it, I got selfish as I thought of my porch and my garden first. But I am thinking this will be a good fixture in his office too...as I always believe a flower always gives any room more life! This I have to convince and I hope he trust my creative prowess.

I guess his office also needs some repainting...and I am so hoping we can do that this weekend. I am a sucker for home...office...store makeover!

And to my friend who just booked a space at the mall...this is something for you to read and ponder on! Ha ha ha! There are just so many useful items you can grab from them...trust me!

By the way, I'm still not done with my home improvement project as I am still having a hard time deciding on what palette to use.

Have you done any makeover lately?
