This fall hubby and I decided that instead of spoiling each other with stuff this Christmas we would renovate an extra room in our main floor into an office space. This space still looked like it was from the 1980’s when our house was built and the second last room left to paint in our dream home.

My do-it-yourself man doesn’t think twice about throwing on this tool belt and putting his skills to use when it comes to renovating – it actually takes him to his happy place. 

Staples Canada – Everything You Need & More

During the planning stage of our new office I knew exactly where the office supplies would come from, Staples for me is one of those stores I love to browse. Long before the hammer was taking down the maple trim I was reading Staples flyer, making frequent trips in store looking for any deals that would help me share some new love in my new home office. At Staples the deals are always incredible and I am also guaranteed to find exactly what I am looking for.

Since we have four children we tend to shop alone, unless we bring a lot of patience to the store with us. Before I headed over to our local Staples to grab a few office supplies for my new space my hubby checked out the deals at staples.ca first. The smile that came next was priceless.

Staples had Samsung LS24D360HL/ZC 23.6″ Simple LED Monitor‘s on sale with a savings of $100.

Since my hubby requires duel screens for work we were looking for the best deal possible for our new office. We called over first because the deal was too good to be true and to our excitement, the store agreed to hold two Samsung LED Monitors for me. My office supply list just got a whole lot bigger but at the same time I was thrilled to find discounted white screens for my new office.

Quickly, I headed over to Staples to start shopping for my office supplies. To be honest I was far to excited now to completely cross everything off my list. I wanted to get these Samsung monitors home and get them out of the box.

Since the color scheme I was looking for in my office space was white on yellow having two white screens front and center made mama a little happy, it was all falling together, perfectly.

Something I have learnt over the years of renovating between our two homes is the importance of budgeting for decor. There still are a few items on my wish list such as a white office chair and some hiding of the wires which will help finalize the look. Right now I am content adding on to my new office as the right pieces surface.

Besides the look of your office the most important pieces of an office is having your office supplies in plenty and at hand. Thanks to my local staples having everything I need, I now have my office ready to start working from. 

Now that my pen’s are in plenty and my Doodle Scents are at hand I am ready to continue my adventures as both the working at home mom and the stay at home mom from my new fresh, bright and inspiring space.

My New Yellow Office

Each time I walk into our new office I cannot help but smile.

That was easy!
