It’s been more than a year now since you moved to your new work place and officially took over your new office. At first, you were busy coping with a new home and learning a new job, but now that you’re settled in you start noticing again the same things that you noticed when you first took over your office.
The walls are a boring, drab colour and looking decidedly depressing, the sun streaming in through the heavy duty blinds is decidedly dingy and the furniture is just about as grotty and plain as it can get. You figure that an acceptable amount of time has passed for you to start an office decorating project.
Of course, before you begin it’s always a good idea to make certain that the powers that be won’t have a problem with your redecoration plans. And remember that it is just an office and so you should treat your decorating plans as such.
Painting the walls a bright red colour possibly might not work. However, you could brighten things up a bit by repainting the walls a bright and airy colour that won’t be an eyesore to anyone, least of all you. Then you could always take down those ancient blinds that have been hanging there since the early’80’s and replace them with something more pleasing and modern.
On the other hand, if the whole of the office is decorated in the same style with the same blinds hanging on every window, your a la mode changes might not go down too well with your colleagues. So, think twice before doing something drastic that changes the whole style and dynamic of the entire office.
There are, however, simpler methods you can use to carry out your office decorating project without too much hassle to you and which doesn’t necessarily need too much thought. You could brighten up any room by placing a couple of flowering plants here and there around your office.
However, if you’re like me and you don’t have green fingers or if you enforce suicide on any plants near you, then maybe you shouldn’t bother with plants. You could however bring in some bright pictures and hang them up on your walls. Or perhaps you have kids and they have painted some lovely pictures for you.
Kids’ paintings work well and will show your co-workers another side of your character. But, don’t get stressed out over anything though – you really don’t need a simple decorating job to add to the rest of your worries – an office decorating project should be fun and stress-free.
Remember, your office decorating project need not entail your turning the whole office, or yourself, on its head. It should be something that you can live with on a daily basis.
After all, you’re at your office most of the day, so it should be a place where you can feel just as relaxed as you are in your own home.
