Let me gussy up your office. Please.

I'm not cheating on us. I swear. But remember that interview I recently gave over at Herman Miller? Well, in who'd-a-thunk-it news, it actually ended up leading me to a great new side-gig as a contributing writer for Herman Miller's Lifework blog. (Collective group hug!) (I mean, if you're comfortable with that.) (!)

Lifework focuses on how work life and your everyday life merge, and I've been charged with creating roundups of items for the office that look chic and act professional. And on Wednesdays, bust out that iTunes gift certificate you got (and still haven't used) from your Secret Santa or your totally hip aunt--I'm going to be doing a new series on music, which will include interviews with cool people on how music inspires the cool work they create (very cool playlists included). I'm hoping that series will launch next Wednesday, February 24, so stay tuned.

My first post went live yesterday with a roundup of an office, er, staple: staplers. Five fabulous ones, to be exact. Check it out here.

Please do stop by often. I'll be here; I'll be there. And be sure to let me know what you think (and if you're ever on the hunt for a particular office item...I may dedicate a little roundup to you!).

how about some cool office water bottles?

Ah congratulations on the exciting news! I'll definitely add it to my reading list. I'm slightly obsessed with office supplies, and I'm always on the hunt for good drawer organizers, because they're so versatile (and because I have so much disorganized stuff)- I'll keep a lookout for an article on them.

Water bottles...drawer organizers...check! (-:

The series on music sounds so cool! Some days music really helps me get creative, get energized, boost my mood - tap into what I need to work better. (And sometimes I get up and dance too...) Can't wait to read and listen.

Love it! Especially since I literally just bought a stapler yesterday. Sigh. Oh how I would have loved that pink one instead. Here's hoping you'll do a post soon on gorgeous business cards cause I sure could use your good eye!! :)
