Office Tour part 2

Missed part 1? Earlier this week I showed you my office, but I wanted to show you some of the details that make my space really functional.

I have a row of white magazine files that I use to keep books that would probably look messy if just left on the shelf.  Things like sheet music and spiral-bound course notes are much nicer tucked away into clean white files.

I keep all my textbooks in one place for easy reference.  (Sidenote – I have at least 3 text books dealing solely with digestive health.  Goes to show you how important it is, doesn’t it?)

I try to keep my desk free of too much clutter, and only keep out what I really need.  These boxes contain pens/pencils/sharpies, and everything else is tucked away in the drawers under my desk.  I keep that Queen backstage pass on my desk to remind of 2 things:

1. how awesome my dad is for giving me the opportunity to work backstage with the event staff at this concert

and

2. to remind me to keep reaching for my goals. 

So there you have it!  My office. 

Pack your bags honey..

Because I’ve got a new love, and that love’s name is… Anthropologie.  They opened up a location near my work almost a year ago, and yesterday I went to check it out.

I would like one of everything please!!  It is so nice to walk through the store, picking everything up, looking at all the beautiful bowls, jewellery, clothes, plates, it goes on and on and on.  I walked the store for about an hour, and came home with this beauty:

What’s in this bag? I’m glad you asked!

So pretty!  I don’t have any specific plans for them yet, but they’re just so gorgeous, I couldn’t pass them up!  They were marked down to $30.00 each from $70.00, and they look like mercury glass!

Expect to see these babies around the house!

What was your favourite design bargain?  Any particular places you like to go for deals?
