It can be pretty hard to get motivated. Especially hard if your work space is unappealing, uncomfortable, cramped, cold or messy.
Today’s goal: update my work space.
Be ready to dedicate several hours into this task. Time to clean, purge, reorganize, decorate and settle in.
For me, it’s a requirement that my work space is visually appealing. I want to see my carefully chosen (and stylish!) office supplies displayed in lovely containers with modern looking touches. I want everything to look neat, organized, with complimentary pops of colors and a fresh vibe.
Glam it up!
Take a wild guess where I bought most all of my new office supplies? If you guessed the magical dollar bin at Target you were right! Most all of the jars, baskets, containers, and pencils were from Tar’get! I also discovered some gems at Marshalls and Staples. Of course, a few of my desk items were already in my collection. I just needed a few new updated items…
Here is my swag from Target:
A quick stop at Staples…
A few items from Marshalls…
(pencils and gold mason jars were from Target’s dollar section)
By putting all of these fun and fabulous items together, I created my ideal workspace. I may tweak a few things here and there, but overall I’m pretty much loving my updated work space!
OH MY GODDESS I LOVE YOU!! I definitely need to freshen up and glam up my work space, and you gave me such inspiration with this post!!!! You are FABULOUS, darling! <3 xoxoxoxox Keep rockin' it!
Yay!! And those dollar bins at Target are seriously amazing!! Good luck with your glam organizing!! 🙂
Oh hell yeah! Hahahaha! You can find a lot of amazing goodies there!
I now know where I’m headed this weekend! TARGET! I LOVE the dollar spot and all the goodies it seems to have. I was actually just saying to my husband and that I need to get my office more organized. This is PERFECT 🙂 I’ll have to show you mine once it’s all done! xo Liz http://www.4evermysweetpea.com
SO happy that you are going to revamp your work space too! The Target dollar bin is a seriously amazing place!! I totally want to see your pics when you’re done! 🙂
Love this Karen!! I am planning on updating my office space this month as well! I had to get a new desk and I’m waiting on it to arrive (my current desk is pretty flimsy and is kinda sagging in the middle, so rather tired of that!). I just went to Home Goods tonight to pick up a few little things, but now I see I need to swing by good ole Target!! I love how you have your notebooks in a basket…pretty, visible, and organized!! 🙂
Thanks!! Love Home Goods, but we don’t have one super close by. I definitely rely on Target, Marshalls and other random places to get all the goodies! 🙂
I love the dollar bins at Target! I have gotten some really cute file folders that I cut in half and use for my binders as dividers. My mom helped me overhaul our guest room/my office for my birthday in May last year. It always feels good to have a space that feels pretty and organized. Just lets you get more done! 🙂
I love this!!! You got such cute stuff at Target! I have to go.. like right now lol. I just recently cleaned up my workspace as well. It’s not even close to looking as cute as this, but its definitely an improvement on what it was before. I’ll definitely be pinning this and using it as inspiration for a future desk re-do! Awesome post!!!

Omg I have that very same journal! Love your space. I love Target and Marshalls as well. I just did some minor refreshing to my home work space. I want to freshen up my office at my day job and purge/declutter my guest room. Great ideas and love ur space!
How funny! Its a great journal! I have been LOVING my new space… hope your space gets a fab freshening up too! 🙂
I LOVE IT! I am totally in love with Marshall’s for stuff like the K tray. I seriously can spend an hour in like 2 aisles there. Your work space looks so amazing, I mayyyy just have to ditch my pinspiration for some Glamspiration!
I love the “glamspiration” idea!!! 🙂
I absolutely adore this idea! Marshals? I guess this is somewhere in USA? not UK?? Check out my space I just literally made it!
