But personally, I couldn’t agree more with what you have done with your work area. Accessorizing your workplace with things you like could actually motivate you to work harder. Thanks for sharing this with us, Morgan.

I love my desk, but wish I'd bought the credenza that matched it at the time, because now it's not available. I'm still using a rummage sale reject for the credenza until I can find one I really like. At one time I was considering using one of the spare rooms, but now I'm glad I didn't because we turned it into a bedroom on the first floor, instead of going upstairs to sleep.

My office has a sofa, my stained glass projects, and tons of books. I love it. Shilo (my dog) loves it. So why haven't I produced more books? Maybe I'm too comfortable.Carole Pricehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12878208750636105503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7041804343600978883.post-25879294210533136942015-01-21T10:51:18.486-06:002015-01-21T10:51:18.486-06:00I totally get the breeding boxes and clutter.

And they will scatter the moment you move that door. Without fail, two will escape your cleaning and set up a new home under a piece of furniture.<br /><br />I love picture walls filled with all sorts of things. You'll find yourself buying little things to fit between the bigger things. Maybe picture walls breed, too? E.

I can just see an amateur sleuth who thinks outside the box finding the solution to a crime hidden among the pictures.

Who says there has to be a theme? I've got a few pictures that i've not hung because I don't think they "fit".
