1. Lampshade For Home Office
If you are a night owl or often slip into the trap of working late, having a lampshade helps give you an extra boost of comfort light.
2. Notebook
It’s good to take screen breaks from your laptop sometimes, and having a physical notebook to write in can be great for this. Colourshot have a range of African-designed notebooks and with my affiliate code REMIREPORTS10 you can get 10% off sitewide. You can choose a variety of different notebook designs to add to the visual decoration of your home office.
3. Paper Weight For Home Office Organisation
You may have some paperwork when working in your home office. A nicely designed paperweight can help keep these papers in order and prevent them from flying off your desk. It’s a useful addition to home office decor.
4. Pencil Case For Home Office Organisation
If you’re anything like me, you’re always looking for a pen. Going back to basics and using a pencil case helps keep your stationery in order. It’s never nice finding yourself amid a dreaded pen search.
5. Baskets For Home Office Organisation
A basket can be useful to contain items that may look untidy if they were on display at your office desk. It helps declutter your working space. This basket with wheels is often tucked under my office desk and stores my printing paper.
6. To-Do List Board For Home Office Organisation
Having a to-do list has helped me to stay organized. You can hang up a whiteboard as a reminder when you’re working. It gives you a satisfying feeling when you wipe off a task.
This To-Do List Board also comes with some cool designed magnetics, to help make it more creative and colourful than a more traditional to-do list.
7. Paper Shredder
Paper shredders help with organisation by destroying documents with important information on them, too.
8. Plants For the Home Office
Working from home more means we need more oxygen, and plants give this to us. They also make great visual decor for your office.
Plants are also like a personal project. As you watch over them, tend to them and water them, you see them grow and flourish. It’s also something else to focus on other than work.
9. Inspirational Frames
To decorate your home office, why not hang up your vision board or some photo frames?
This can help make the office look more visually appealing and inspiring while you work.
This frame pictured is a collection of some of my published articles, that I was gifted by my grandmother. Having something inspiring like this hung up in your office space can give you that extra motivation to work.
It also helps with the visual aspect of organising your office.
I hope these home office organisation tips have given you some ideas for your office whilst working from home. If you are a writer looking for office essentials, visit this post.
