sitting at a desk and let’s be honest, it can get pretty dull. Of course a clutter free environment is important so that you can focus better, but it doesn’t hurt to customise your space. Here are some great ideas to brighten up your working space…

Colourful Files@Nina Campbell

Go out and buy some new, bright and colourful box files that really reflect your personality. This is a fab way to jazz up your desk and add colour to your work environment. You could even make your own: Simply take your old files and paper over them. Perhaps you could stick photos of your friends and family over them for an extra personal touch?

Mouse Mat Often overlooked, the humble mouse mat

can give your work environment the breathe of fresh air it has been asking for. Many businesses offer to personalise your mouse mats with images: you could opt for a family photo or maybe even your favourite painting?

Stapler @Tommy Fox

Desktop Games

@Aliex Press

A game of desktop basketball would spice up your break time: Keep a variety of games in your desk drawer for those moments when you need a little fun in your life to break up the day. Why not start Friday tournaments with your colleagues?

Plants

@Office Playground

Forget potted plants, what you really need is your very own desktop Zen garden. Staring at this haven of peace all day, every day will aid your spirituality and bring you inner peace. Not only that, it makes a great motivational tool for your next holiday. So get your head down and work towards that cheeky bonus!

Framed Photographs

@ZifZif

Fun photos of your family, friends or beloved pet really do personalise your desk. Think outside the box though, nobody wants to see a snotty nosed toddler cramming ice cream into his mouth every time they walk past your desk. Arrange around your zen garden for a cool and quirky look.

Inspirational Quotes

For some daily inspiration why not stick a few quotes around your desk that really motivate you? Whenever the workload gets too much or you feel a little overwhelmed they will act as a reminder of how awesome you are and the potential within. Amen.
