Since 2012 I’ve been sharing photos of my bulletin board here on the blog at the beginning of each year. Along with making a whole heap of goals, taking everything off my bulletin board and starting over is one of my little rituals to help start the year off right. A fresh start is always fun!
This post also includes a few random pictures from around my office because surprise, surprise I rearranged again. I know that I’ve never been great at sharing full room views since I tend to concentrate on details more than anything so it’s kind of hard to picture what’s so different about this room since the last time I shared photos of it. But trust me, it’s different and it’s wonderful!
A couple days into 2018 I got the itch to start scooting furniture and ended up switching which wall my desk was on. Out of the four other places I’ve had my desk in this tiny room in the last year, this is the one that makes the most sense. It stops the sunshine from attacking my face every single day around noon (I hated having to close the blinds to be able to see my computer!) It gives me the largest wall to display plants, my shelf of favorite things, and large prints. Perhaps best of all, with my desk placed against the shortest wall in the room, I feel like I have a cozy little nook to work in. I’ll probably end up moving my desk another handful of times before moving out of this apartment but for now, this set up feels spectaular!
I’m a firm believer that it’s super important to cultivate a space that makes you happy and this certainly does just that. Anyway, I think a 2018 bulletin board refresh paired with rearranged furniture definitely calls for photos!

Love seeing other people’s pin boards/ office space! I’m currently on a cork board but when I saw you dress up a dog crate as a bulletin board it did get me thinking… I don’t think me dog would appreciate it, though. Her crate is her personal cave 😛
Although I hate it when people link me things on my blog (because ‘is it spam/a virus?’ screams in my head like a paranoid gal) I keep seeing this lamp. I’m desperate to buy it but I also feel like it would be right up your street (if you’ve not already seen it!) : https://goo.gl/fcJBKw
That’s been on my wishlist for a while! So dang cute.
I’m so envious of your Visible Man! I actually have one but it fell over recently and broke and I’m still sick about it. Those things are almost impossible to put back together but now I think I’m an expert in his organs haha.
Those stupid things are so easy to break. I bought mine at an estate sale and he was already taped up in a few areas but I thought he looked good enough to bring home. He’s fallen here a few times. Luckily no futher breakage though. He’s just so top heavy!
I just got this https://www.homedepot.com/p/LightShow-LED-Projection-Standard-Light-Bulb-Kaleidoscope-RGB-Set-39948/206768202 for $3.25 over the weekend at Home Dept and it made me think of you! I added it to a ceiling facing floor lamp and now my ceiling looks like i live in a aquarium ( i have a solid blue one).
Ooooh! I’ll have to look into picking up one of those!
I’ve barely gotten art on my walls, & you’re already rearranging! Impressive.
LOL!

[…] She shared this bulletin board in this year’s office update and I’m just smitten. I think a crib spring would be a roughed up equivalent, right? […]
