Thrifted Office Makeover
Hi friends, Kelsey and Becky here! Our team has been expanding recently, and with that comes the need for a more efficient and inspiring office space. We gathered honest feedback and suggestions from our team to create an environment that's not only more user-friendly but also has an awesome vibe to work in. We've given our workspace a complete makeover so check it out down below!
Must-Haves for Our Revamped Office:
Extra storage space
Bigger table/desk for more people
Longer, more colorful and opaque curtains
Clutter-free zone!
the inspo:
First, we got the space ready by taking down the old curtains, patching up the walls, clearing out old office supplies, and giving everything a good cleaning and organizing. With a clean slate to work with, it was time to paint! We picked a lovely muted beige/pink color, perfect for matching our new curtains. This color choice brightens the room and makes the ceilings look super tall, naturally drawing your eye upward and making the space feel even more open. For the curtains, we sewed fabric extensions onto the bottoms so they would comfortably reach the floor, enhancing the dreamy, lofty height we envisioned.
Next, we needed more storage for all our supplies and gear. We came up with the brilliant idea to transform one of our walls into a built-in storage locker wall. We thrifted a bunch of cool lockers in different sizes and colors, removed the legs from some, and played a bit of Tetris to fit them perfectly into our wall plan. The end result was amazing and super eye-catching!
We really hit the jackpot in the thrifting department! We scored an amazing second-hand pill-shaped table, perfect for fitting more team members comfortably. We also found a cozy leather bench for under the window, two mid-century modern desk chairs, and, as mentioned before, a variety of colorful lockers.
With these second-hand treasures in hand, it was time for the final touches. We put everything back into our newly revamped space, styled it up, and the results were fantastic.
