We previously discussed how to create a home office that works for you — whether that be maximizing your home office space for two or creating a work-from-home space in your bedroom. Now, let’s dive into keeping your home office fresh with summer decorating.
Summer Decorations for Your Home Office
If you’re looking for ways to bring summer into your home office this year, keep reading for a few summer decorating ideas for your home workspace:
- Bring in the florals: One of the easiest ways to make your home office feel refreshed for summer is to bring in some of your favorite seasonal floral arrangements. These look great sitting on your desk, a shelf, or a side table in your home office.
- Showcase your desk calendar: Even though your summer calendar may be filled with lots of OOO, a bright, summery print on your desk calendar will add a little something extra to your home office this summer.
- Add some greenery: Another way to breathe life into your home office is by adding some office-friendly plants to your space. Decorate your desk, shelves, or even hang a few plants by the window. Some of our favorite plants this summer are the snake plant, philodendron, and zz plant.
- Find new planters: Now that you’ve added a few new plants to your collection, it’s time to swap out their nursery pots to ones with a bit more color for the summer. Consider crafting your own creation or finding one you like on Etsy.
- Opt for a vibrant-colored lamp: One easy way to add another pop of color to your home office this summer is by swapping out your table or floor lamps with one that has a little more color.
- Light a citrus candle: Adding a crisp scent to your office space when you start the work day makes you feel ultra refreshed to crank out your tasks for the day.
- Hang breezy sheer curtains: Nothing says summer more than an open window with curtains swaying in the wind. Consider swapping out your current curtains with ones a little lighter in weight, texture, and color, like the Sheer Crosshatch Curtain from West Elm.
- Add a mirror or two: An easy way to play up the light in your home office is by adding a few more mirrors. Since mirrors tend to extend the natural light within your room, adding a few to your home office can help you work those longer hours as needed.
