It can be difficult to stay productive in a home office; after all, there’s no threat of a boss looking over your shoulder to make sure you’re on task. You need to stay organized and motivated to get things done on your own, and minimizing distractions is key. Organizational guru Liz Davenport recommends turning your home office into a “cockpit office” in order to stay focused. This means keeping only the tools and files you use on a regular basis within arms reach: everything else can be filed away.
Everything you use daily should be within immediate reach on your desk. Everything you use weekly should be within an arms reach. If you haven’t used something in a month or more, store it in another part of your office, where you have to retrieve it by getting up from your desk. This type of organization means you almost never have to interrupt your workflow to get day-to-day work done. Davenport claims that every time you leave your desk you will be gone an average of 20 minutes – and you may not even return with what you were looking for in the first place. Minimizing distractions and maximizing the usefulness of items you need most is just one of many great home office ideas that can help you work more effectively from a home based business. Of course, it’s still nice to have some silk plants in artificial water or wall hangings to liven up the space a little—and you don’t want to room looking like a prison cell if you have to have a meeting on the spur of the moment.
The season is changing and you want to show that change in your office or your living décor, so what do you do? Over a period of time you can purchase one or two silk flora arrangements that will fit another season or special time of the year that you enjoy; and at that time, you can store the other arrangement. It is not all that hard and it doesn’t take up that much room. Get a sturdy box so that you will be able to use it over an over again for each time you change your seasonal décor. Put the silk floral arrangements in a large trash bag and tie it shut so that it will keep the dust from collecting and you will have only a minimal amount of arranging when you pull it out.
If you are wanting to change the seasonal look in your dinning room or family room, you can move the existing artificial flower arrangement into another room if space allows instead of storing it away and at the same time it will give that other room a different look. The use of centerpiece silk floral arrangements can liven up any décor and they will last for many years with very low maintenance needed.
