The artwork displayed in small black frames is museum
postcards I’ve collected in my travels. The pictures I had printed at home. All
scrapbook papers for the flag garland, the cork boards, the pencil cup, and the
coaster were from my stash (along with modge podge, bias tape and thread). The
office supplied standard things like the tabletop vertical file and folders, the
computer, the phone, the printer, notepads, pens, Kleenex, etc.
Overall, I’m SUPER happy with this renovation. I felt like
the space before didn’t even look like an FTE worked here, let alone someone
with personality. Now the space genuinely reflects who I am and what makes me
happy. It even sparked my officemate's interest in cleaning up and reorganizing
her own space! I’d say that's a job well done for the both of us.
