My poor hubby walked out this morning and saw his prized planter destroyed, and I’ve never seen him so heartbroken over a plant 🤣

They left it alone all summer, but last night? Total devastation.
Fingers crossed they don’t make a salad bar out of the rest of our garden 🙃

Tourist in my own town? Yes please! 🙌 I took a Tourist in my own town? Yes please! 🙌 I took a little staycation last week and it was everything I needed- relaxing, fun, and filled with so much good food! 😋

One of the highlights? A full-blown date day in downtown Asheville 🏙️ We kicked things off with brunch at @theblackbirdrestaurant, wandered through cute shops like @mastgeneralstore + @anthropologie 🛍️, and wrapped it up with an incredible dinner at @ukiahrestaurant (10/10 recommend) 🍜

And of course… we couldn’t leave without chocolate from @asheville.chocolate 🍫 because dessert is a must, always.

Already missing my staycation life, but what a way to close it out! 🥹🫶

How to Style a Home Office

I have to say my favorite room in our whole house would be our office space. We just completed it and I am in love. There is nothing I like to do more than sit in here and write up a few blog posts while sipping on my coffee. The space just relaxes me and inspires me and I am just so happy with how everything turned out with it. I thought I would share how to style a home office space with you guys in case you are looking to create an office space of your own too! 

Vintage Farmhouse Home Office
Here is the main view of the home office space as you walk in.

This post contains affiliate links. Click here to read my disclosure policy.

Choosing Your Style

I think the most important thing for you to figure out before you start styling your home office space is, what kind of style do you want to go for? Do you want farmhouse, vintage, modern, boho, etc.? 

There are so many styles and there really isn’t any right or wrong answers. Find what speaks to you and go from there. As long as you love it, that is all that matters! 

Once you have nailed down your style, it will be easier to pick out furniture and decor for the office space.

Home Office Desk
Here is a view from my desk!

Choosing Your Office Desk

Obviously, the first thing you need to style an office space is a desk. I chose to get a vintage, chippy desk because that is my style and that is what I love.

But again, choose whatever is closest to your style. I got mine from Vintage Pickin, which is a large event full of vintage and antique goodies. If you’re looking for more of a modern style, then there are plenty of options out there as well.

Go to a big box store or look online. Many companies, such as Wayfair, have great options and will ship directly to you which is awesome! 

You just want to make sure your desk is big enough and that you have plenty of space for the work you need to do.

Since I love home decor as well, I got a pretty large desk because I wanted to have enough space on there to display all of my vintage pieces too.

Planner on Desk
Here is a view of my favorite planner from Erin Condren. I like how personalized and customizable they can be!

I like having my typewriter in the corner of my desk as well as vintage books. And I also have my laptop front and center for when I am working and I, of course, have candles burning as well.

Another thing I always have out on my desk is my favorite Erin Condren Planner. I use this all the time to keep me organized and plus, it is just super cute as well.

I like to keep it a mix of decor and functionality and having a large desk allows me to do so.

25 off plus free mug

Desk Placement

Another important thing to consider once you have chosen your desk, is where are you going to place it? If you have a whole room to use as an office, then that’s great! 

You have plenty of options as to where to place it. But, if you only have a small corner in a guest room, then you’re options are more limited and you want to be mindful of that when choosing a desk.

Luckily, we had a whole spare bedroom so I started with an empty canvas which made styling the office easier to me. I decided since I had so much room, I wanted to place the desk in the middle, instead of against a wall.

My reasoning for this was I wanted to be able to look out the windows and see the birds chirping, rather than stare at a wall when I was working. 

I find that I am much more productive when I have a nice view. I don’t feel so cooped up that way. Again, that was totally my own choice though. 

If you like having a desk against the wall because that is more traditional, then go for it! You can always add some fun detail to the wall space you are looking at too!

Filing Cabinets and Lockers

Since I was going for that vintage vibe, I also decided to add in some old lockers and filing cabinets. I am all about the chippy and rusty pieces, so I found these pieces at antique stores.

Vintage Lockers in Office
You may remember how I transformed that old antique mirror hanging up on the wall a few years back too! It definitely goes with the whole vintage vibe in here!

I love having the filing cabinet to file away our important bills and papers. It definitely has helped us organize our documents much better than we were doing in the past.

Vintage Filing Cabinet in Office
And, can we also talk about how well Faith, my fiddle leaf fig is doing!? She’s almost a year old now and I am so proud of myself for keeping her alive all this time! Fiddle Leafs can tend to be a little finicky if you didn’t know!

I also love having my little locker in the corner too because I am able to use it for so much storage. If you know me, then you know I have an addiction to Rae Dunn coffee mugs and I started running out of room in the kitchen for them.

So when I got this locker, I started storing some extras in there! I know, I know, it’s not really “office related” but it definitely helps my kitchen storage situation!

Reading Nook in Office

I also decided to include a reading nook area in my office too since I had plenty of room. I got a super comfy old leather chair and positioned it caddy cornered.

To make it cozy, I also draped a comfy blanket and pillow on it so it is ready to go whenever I get in the mood to sit down and read for bit.

Office Reading Nook
How cozy is this reading nook?!

The open shelves above the chair too provide some extra space to style my antique pieces and I love changing them up season to season.

I also added in a little more of a modern floor lamp behind the chair and I love how it all came together. I think it is just the perfect little reading nook for an office space!

Reading Nook Shelves
Close up view of the open shelves here!

Feature Wall

The last thing I want to talk about in how to style a home office space, is the possibility of adding in a feature wall. Since I did not place my desk against the wall, I had a huge wall space to fill up. I decided on doing a feature wall here to help fill up the space.

Again, sticking with the vintage vibe, I found a pair of old antique shutters. Then, I found an old tobacco basket and added a neutral wreath to the middle of it.

I also like to change this wreath out for every season too! And my finishing touch for my feature wall is my metal “Mornings on Macedonia” customized sign made by Vintage Metal Co.

If you have a large wall space in your office too, then consider doing a feature wall too. Or maybe a gallery wall. Do some fun wallpaper or some shiplap. Really anything goes! 

Feature Wall in Office
Here’s a view of my feature wall from behind my desk!

Other Home Office Accessories

You all probably know by now if you’ve been around long enough, that I’m a tad Cricut obsessed! So of course I had to make space for my favorite Cricut products in my office too.

I have the Cricut Explore Air 2 and the Cricut Easy Press 2 machine. So I found a small little side table that was perfect to place them on over in the corner of my office.

And whenever, I have an urge to craft, I can easily access them that way!

Cricut Machine on Desk
Close up of how I store my Cricut machines and accessories!

I also always have to have a candle burning in the office when I am working. And again, if you know me, then you know I love Antique Candle Co. They are always my go to candles for any space in my home, including my home office!

Antique Candle Co in Office
Here is one of my favorite Antique Candle Co Candles burning on my desk!

Another thing I like to decorate is my inbox/outbox shelf with some old vintage postcard and letters. You could totally use it for actual mail too, but I like to keep it more decor related.

Especially since it goes so well with the whole vintage farmhouse office vibe I’ve got going on here. And another thing I like to collect are old vintage spindles.

I just throw them in a Magnolia bucket next to my old lockers in my office too. The more vintage pieces in here, the better in my opinion!

Inbox/Outbox Shelf in Office
Here’s my Inbox/Outbox shelves right as you walk in.
Vintage Spindles in Bucket
And here are my collection of vintage spindles.

Well, I hope you found this post post helpful on how to style an office space. Do you all have a large office space too, or a smaller one?

What are some of the ways you have styled your office and what kind of style do you prefer? Let me know below and thanks so much for taking the time to read!

    Your home office is looking smashing! I love how your colors are all working together to create a harmonious space, but you have key colors popping out. Your organized filing cabinet and inbox/outbox spaces are fabulous, but the typewriter is the star of your room in my eyes.

    I really enjoyed the article. I would love to see this “formula” applied to the other styles you’ve mentioned, with examples and some sugestions of desk, decor, etc.

When your sweet potato vine was thriving… until When your sweet potato vine was thriving… until the deer called in for a midnight buffet 😭🦌
My poor hubby walked out this morning and saw his prized planter destroyed, and I’ve never seen him so heartbroken over a plant 🤣

They left it alone all summer, but last night? Total devastation.
Fingers crossed they don’t make a salad bar out of the rest of our garden 🙃

Tourist in my own town? Yes please! 🙌 I took a Tourist in my own town? Yes please! 🙌 I took a little staycation last week and it was everything I needed- relaxing, fun, and filled with so much good food! 😋

One of the highlights? A full-blown date day in downtown Asheville 🏙️ We kicked things off with brunch at @theblackbirdrestaurant, wandered through cute shops like @mastgeneralstore + @anthropologie 🛍️, and wrapped it up with an incredible dinner at @ukiahrestaurant (10/10 recommend) 🍜

And of course… we couldn’t leave without chocolate from @asheville.chocolate 🍫 because dessert is a must, always.

Already missing my staycation life, but what a way to close it out! 🥹🫶

This is me every time we travel: no idea where we’re going, where we parked, or how we’re getting there 😂 I just grab my bag, follow my husband like a lost puppy, and hope for the best! Solo travel? Couldn’t be me, my anxiety would never allow it 😅 I’m proudly a passenger princess and he’s the human GPS. Balance, right? 😉✈️
