I moved into a new office at work recently and realized that even though I've had my own office for almost 2 years, I've truly never bothered to decorate it. To make it my own. To put my own personality into the room. Which is probably the reason my last office always felt a little "temporary" to me. There's a fine line, of course, between decorating for home and decorating for work. I want my office decor to be familiar, make me feel comfortable, but completely within the bounds of work appropriate (and yes, partially this is a limit I put on myself, and I'm fine with that). The funny thing is that I'm in the construction industry, so a picture of a toilet or bathroom would be included in the appropriate category.
Just so you know, when I started searching Office Decor for this post, I never (surprisingly) intended for it to be all about gold. Apparently my love of Gold is now seeping into decorating and it's HOT right now because everywhere I searched, Gold is prominently featured. This is a trend I am completely on board with.
funny, but no:

yolo is never appropriate at the office. Unless you work at a skydiving school. |

Yes, that's a gold dino planter. I don't know either. |

I don't often use pencils, but if I did, this would be an absolute must. |
Office decor I could only do at a home office:

Gold Chevron wall. So amazing.

I'd do gold and white Brocade on the wall instead of this pattern, but still nice and clean |

Love the gold screen as an accent |

I'd love to do black & white prints of my own photos in different gold frames |

LOVING this canvas wrap (gold feathers, could it be more appropriate for me?) |
I truly can't believe that no one ever pointed out I didn't have a Gold Stapler. Honestly, this seems like an obvious one. Already ordered and on it's way to me for just
$24 from Furbish
