Your cubicle is more than just a space to work in; it’s a reflection of yourself and can greatly affect your mood and productivity. So why settle for a dull and uninspiring workspace when you can transform it into something that brings joy and creativity? Here are some ideas to decorate your cubicle at work:
1. Add a Personal Touch: Start by incorporating personal items that reflect your personality. Bring in framed photos of loved ones, pets, or memorable vacations. Display mementos from hobbies or achievements that make you proud. These little touches will not only brighten up your space but also serve as reminders of what makes you happy.
2. Use Colorful Accessories: Inject some color into your cubicle by using vibrant accessories. Choose colorful desk organizers, file folders, or sticky notes. Opt for a bright-colored mousepad or a fun desktop calendar to add pops of color to the area.
3. Utilize Wall Space: Make the most of the limited real estate in your cubicle by utilizing wall space creatively. Hang a bulletin board where you can pin important notes, inspirational quotes, or pictures that inspire you. Consider adding small floating shelves to display decorative items like miniature plants or small figurines.
4. Inspire with Quotes: Surround yourself with motivational quotes and phrases that uplift your spirit and keep you motivated throughout the day. You can print out these quotes on beautiful stationery or create artistic vinyl decals for the walls.
5. Bring Nature Indoors: Introduce elements of nature into your workspace by adding plants or flowers. Not only do they improve air quality, but they also provide a touch of tranquility and freshness amidst the office hustle.
6. Incorporate Lighting: Lighting plays an essential role in creating a pleasant ambiance within your workspace. If possible, opt for natural light by keeping blinds open during the day. Alternatively, invest in desk lamps or string lights to personalize and improve the lighting in your cubicle.
7. Stay Organized: A cluttered workspace can lead to stress and loss of productivity. Use desk organizers, file trays, and hooks to keep your belongings tidy and easily accessible. By maintaining an organized environment, you’ll have a clear mind to focus on your tasks.
8. Customized Whiteboard: If your cubicle has a whiteboard or a similar surface, make it your own by personalizing it with doodles or motivational messages. You can also use it as a space to set goals or write down inspiring quotes.
Remember that when decorating your cubicle, it’s essential to adhere to any workplace rules regarding what is allowed. Avoid excessive decorations that could be distracting or interfere with coworkers’ spaces.
By implementing these ideas, you’ll create a more comfortable and visually appealing workspace that will boost your productivity and overall well-being throughout the workday. Ultimately, investing time in personalizing your cubicle shows self-care and contributes to a more positive work environment for yourself and those around you.

Description : Approach life at home the Madame Chic way: a beautiful, illustrated toolbox of tips and ideas for organizing, entertaining, and savoring a stylish life. When she arrived at Madame Chic’s Parisian apartment as a foreign exchange student, Jennifer Scott was a casual California girl who thought sweatpants were appropriate street attire. Madame Chic took Jennifer under her wing and tutored her in the secrets of how the French elevate the little things in life to the art of living. Years later, Jennifer was back in California with a husband, two young daughters, a dog, and her first home. Every day she confronted mundane duties like folding laundry and unloading the dishwasher, and she began to think about Madame Chic’s home—how the breakfast table was set beautifully the night before, the music that always played in the background, the calm of Madame and Monsieur Chic’s ritual cocktail hour together. Jennifer wanted that life. She decided to see what would happen if she didn’t perform her chores impatiently or mindlessly, if, instead, she could live like Madame Chic. At Home with Madame Chic reveals the secrets to having a happy, fulfilling, and passionate life at home. Jennifer explains the morning send-off need not be chaotic, it’s possible to look stylish with minimal time and effort, a little forethought makes it possible to serve a home-cooked dinner every night, and details like music and scented candles can set the tone for the whole family’s evening. Organized by the pleasures that can be found throughout the day, this charming, helpful book is full of ideas, playlists, recipes, beauty routines, and advice that can turn an irritating day into an enjoyable experience....

Description : From the creator of the popular website Ask a Manager and New York’s work-advice columnist comes a witty, practical guide to 200 difficult professional conversations—featuring all-new advice! There’s a reason Alison Green has been called “the Dear Abby of the work world.” Ten years as a workplace-advice columnist have taught her that people avoid awkward conversations in the office because they simply don’t know what to say. Thankfully, Green does—and in this incredibly helpful book, she tackles the tough discussions you may need to have during your career. You’ll learn what to say when • coworkers push their work on you—then take credit for it • you accidentally trash-talk someone in an email then hit “reply all” • you’re being micromanaged—or not being managed at all • you catch a colleague in a lie • your boss seems unhappy with your work • your cubemate’s loud speakerphone is making you homicidal • you got drunk at the holiday party Praise for Ask a Manager “A must-read for anyone who works . . . [Alison Green’s] advice boils down to the idea that you should be professional (even when others are not) and that communicating in a straightforward manner with candor and kindness will get you far, no matter where you work.”—Booklist (starred review) “The author’s friendly, warm, no-nonsense writing is a pleasure to read, and her advice can be widely applied to relationships in all areas of readers’ lives. Ideal for anyone new to the job market or new to management, or anyone hoping to improve their work experience.”—Library Journal (starred review) “I am a huge fan of Alison Green’s Ask a Manager column. This book is even better. It teaches us how to deal with many of the most vexing big and little problems in our workplaces—and to do so with grace, confidence, and a sense of humor.”—Robert Sutton, Stanford professor and author of The No Asshole Rule and The Asshole Survival Guide “Ask a Manager is the ultimate playbook for navigating the traditional workforce in a diplomatic but firm way.”—Erin Lowry, author of Broke Millennial: Stop Scraping By and Get Your Financial Life Together...

Deb tells you her favorite summer cocktail; how to lose your fear of cooking for a crowd; and the essential items you need for your own kitchen.
