Hello Pretty Offices, May I Work in You?

With it being mid-April and all, I've been thinking that it might be time to give my office space a good spring cleaning (and/or complete overhaul).  I really do try to be organized, but I've noticed that it's much easier to make a pretty space in my studio, where being creatively inspired is, well, obvious.  My office space, a tiny loft area brimming with way too many piles of papers and cardboard boxes, is all but crying out for some makeover love.  For motivation, I've been collecting lots of lovely images, a few of which are posted above. 

Do any of you have office spaces you've recently redone?  If so, I'd love to see some photos or hear what you've done.

Have a beautiful Thursday, darlings.





P.S. I'm still on the look-out for an old card catalog, which I'm certain would make my office especially happy.

  6. I love all of these offices! Definitely better than my kitchen table, where I currently work. I think my favorite is the closet office :)

  7. These are all 100 times cuter than my office space! Mine needs an overhaul too! I love the bottom image. I agree that it's pretty and organized but still feels real :-).

    Did you see that you were featured on Design Sponge today???!! They featured your Before and After bookshelf entertainment center!!! :-)

  8. There's nothing quite as satisfying as sitting down to do some work at a nice, clean work desk! I know I can't organize myself for anything if I'm sitting in a mess.

  13. Thanks so much for your comments everyone! I'm glad I'm not the only one with the need for an office makeover!

    Jessica, yes, I saw our feature on Design*Sponge - so exciting! If I ever get around to re-doing my office space maybe I'll post a before/after for that as well. :)

  14. Oh, these are so inspirational! I love the closet office - that's ingenious how they utilize the doors for extra storage space.
    I think I'm due for a little re-organization, too.
