Working in a cubicle doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice style and creativity. Transforming your workspace into a personalized haven can boost your productivity and overall well-being. Whether you’re looking to bring in some personality or simply want to make your cubicle feel more inviting, here are some tips on how to decorate your cubicle at work:
1. Declutter and organize: Before you start decorating, tidy up your workspace. Remove any unnecessary items and organize your essentials in a way that maximizes space efficiency. Having a clean canvas will allow you to plan out your decorations better.
2. Add color: Injecting some vibrant colors into your cubicle can instantly brighten up the atmosphere. Consider using colorful desk accessories, such as pen holders or file organizers, or hang up visually appealing wall art or inspirational quotes.
3. Bring in plants: Indoor plants not only add a touch of greenery but also improve air quality and create a calming environment. Opt for low-maintenance plants like succulents or small potted flowers that don’t require much sunlight or watering.
4. Personalize with photos: Displaying personal photos is a fantastic way to remind yourself of loved ones and create an uplifting ambiance at work. You can use frames, bulletin boards, or even attach them directly on the walls with removable adhesive hooks.
5. Use decorative stationery: Invest in stylish stationery items like patterned notebooks, unique pens, and colorful sticky notes that can both enhance functionality and aesthetics on your desk.
6. Install lighting options: If the lighting in your cubicle is dim, bring additional sources of light such as desk lamps or string lights to brighten up the space. Warm white LED lights can create an ambient glow without being too distracting.
7. Hang curtains or fabric dividers: To add privacy and personalize your space further, consider hanging curtains around your cubicle or using fabric dividers to create a cozy nook. Choose colors and patterns that resonate with your taste and align with the overall theme of your decorations.
8. Incorporate a whiteboard or corkboard: A whiteboard is an excellent tool for jotting down reminders, setting goals, or brainstorming ideas. Similarly, a corkboard allows you to pin up notes, inspirational quotes, or even artwork that inspires you.
9. Utilize storage solutions: Maximize your cubicle’s storage potential by incorporating shelves, organizers, or hanging pockets. These solutions not only help keep your workspace clutter-free but also give you more room for showcasing decorative items.
10. Stay professional: While injecting personality into your cubicle is important, remember to keep it professional and respectful of the workplace environment. Avoid controversial or offensive items that could cause discomfort among colleagues.
Remember that cubicle decoration should reflect who you are while maintaining professionalism within the workspace. Creating an environment that sparks joy and motivates you can greatly enhance your productivity and overall satisfaction at work. So go ahead and let your creative side shine through in decorating your cubicle!

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...
