beautiful

That’s it.  I must organize my office.  Fingers crossed I can get it done this week.  Maybe I’ll cross my toes too. This crisp palette, perfect pop of green (Eames chairs, gasp) and rhythm of neatly stacked books inspires my orderly side.

Raise your hand if you’re also procrastinating a must-do project.  I have a feeling that this is a good week to get a few things done.  Are you in?

    I’m in! Just thinking last night about that old saying “Why put off what you can do today, until tomorrow”. Now if I could just follow through.

    Definitely in. This office is like a breath of fresh air. And how I long to have an Eames Management chair one day!

    I LOVE looking at office spaces. Must be that freakishly organizational side in me but I am obsessed with crisp, clean, and organized spaces. Just wish I had room for something so beautiful!

    Have you returned to your home, or are you still in the rental? Just curious. Both places seem great!

    Such a perfect post for me today. I’m working on organizing my office too. Although, not as beautiful as the one above. Gorgoeous inspiration!

    Perfect post for me today…I spent 4 hours organizing my home office last night. Every single piece of paper was either filed or thrown out. It feels so much better this morning.

    Oh, I am pushing several things in front of me – procrastination at its best!
    I am not sure though that I’ll tackle it this week though….maybe next, hehe.
    The picture is gorgeous though, I should look at it for a long time, maybe
    I’ll get a push then…..

    Hi Janette,

    I get this question a lot – I know it’s confusing wondering where we live! We actually have three homes right now (if you include our rental). At this current time, we’re living in our rental : )

    oh my, I have a pile high of things to get done. I suppose I could actually get busy and get a few crossed off.

    I’m so in with you on getting projects done this week! I’m pretty sure that I am in the middle of about 10 different ones haha. Thanks for sharing that super beautiful and organized office! Certainly the motivation I needed.

    Hi Seleta,
    I am a new reader. Julie H. told me about you. What a wonderful blog you have! I am really enjoying it. I hope to have my own blog launched by the end of the month. Would you be open to answering any blogging questions from this newbie along the way?

    Love the office and the green!

    Oh my gosh…my office is such a mess right now and I think it would take a week of rain…torrential rain…no make that floods so I could not leave the house for me to settle down and at least organize it before I could even begin the decorating part :)

    My desk is so cluttered today that I just sat on the round table in the middle of my office to work. I really need to get organized!

    Love the green color pattern of that office! The white makes the space feel airy, and the green makes it feel warm. Hope you get to your project soon, it’s hard when you have so much going on, but you will feel better once you get it done ;)

    Love that office — I don’t have that much space, so I’m waiting on the new West Elm metallic desk for my bedroom. At least I’ll be able to spread out a little more and look out the window while I work.

    Lauren January 25, 2011

    Hi Seleta…love that office! Do you have any idea what the wall color is? I am starting to put some ideas together for our home office and would love to use a soothing color. Especially since my husband is not the most organized ;)

    Gee, we need a tornado to blow through ours so we can start over. We have great Dane Design white desks, etc., but they are now hidden under all the clutter. Thanks for the inspiration to get organized!

    Seleta … Each time I see a beautiful hip organized office like this, I swear to myself that this is it! I am going to organize my office and stay on top of it and … well, let’s just say here I am again, after seeing this picture, swearing to myself again.

    Seleta/Anyone else,

    Where is that fabulous lucite document holder from? I would love it for my wrapping paper which I store in my office. Love the blog!

    I have that green chair– a knockoff, of course– and I love it! It’s one of my favorite colors, so I jumped on it when I first saw it a year ago.

    I found this picture on pinterest and loved it! I am obsessed with lime green but my office is a mish mosh of colors with a black and white theme in there somewhere! I’m looking for inspiration to organize!!

I'd love to hear from you!
