Working From Home Ideas

My dear chum Interiors stylist and journalist Emma Morton Turner, mum of teens, has a fabulous website and blog on insidestylists.com, that whether you’re searching for interior inspiration, home decor advice, or indeed you’re in the industry (become a member) and want to know where to find great advice, props, location etc… it’s all there to help! Such a clever idea.

In a new post on Inside Stylists about Working from Home ‘THE FUN WAY’ (we’ve both done it for many years) she’s included some fab tips:

  1. Get Clear. Get Focused: with a planner (yeah I use my phone and computer…must buy planner. Thanks Em)

  2. Sit Down: well I love the look of my husband’s vintage leather chair, but need my practical dull one for my posture!)

  3. Set The Intention: and light a candle to help you focus! She’s SO right…especially as she sweetly cited our lively lemongrass, bergamot and frankincense GOJO candle as a fave.

  4. Make It Green: essential to clean living and cleaner air for your body and soul.

  5. Great lighting: spotlights, angle-poised … look after those eyes, guys.

  6. Dog Beds: OMG … she’d so right! Our dog basically has a bed in almost every room in the house, except the kitchen - where he literally drags one into a doorway space so he can be with us! Office dog begs … they’re way more comfy than us while we work - and that’s okay!
