Office Space

colorful work desk

After almost two years in the same work area, I’m finally getting around to personalizing my desk space. Fantastically priced Instagram prints from aptly named Prinstagram, sleek acrylic desk accessories from Design Darling, and other miscellaneous cutouts and prints posted to a bulletin board have cheered this place up in no time. My style is traditionally more vintage and rustic than the modern you’ll see here, but it’s a nice change with clean lines that keeps me focussed at work.

Guest Post: Sister Pinspiration

My little sister and I have always dreamed about what our bachelorette pad would look like if we ever had the chance to move in together. Since I’ve been crazy busy with work + life (and meeting fabulous Boston Bloggers!) this week, she’s here to show you what our dream apartment would look like…
