With the new year comes new opportunities to reflect on the previous year and make positive changes. For us, we find the best way to maximize these efforts by setting up your spaces for success. What better way than to accomplish this than workspace organization frames. This blog will highlight the perfect tools for you to add to your spaces in the new year. A clutter-free workspace leads to better productivity and using frames to create that organizational system is both functional and allows you to add a little bit of style to the space you spend most of your time in! Read on to explore creative ways to set yourself up for success.
Why Workspace Organization Frames Are a Game-Changer
Gone are the days where your workspace is restricted to a cold grey bare environment. With a little bit of creativity and a few supplies, your dream aesthetic workspace is possible. The biggest reason we recommend going the DIY route when it comes to organizational systems is that you’re able to customize them to fit your needs. Adding frames means you no longer must sacrifice productivity for style. Workspace Organization frames are simply a way to take advantage of the vertical space in your office, whether you work from home or commute to a cubicle. These ideas can also create an environment for those holding the important job of managing a home full time.
DIY Bulletin Boards: The Frame Hack You Need
Did you know that you can purchase rolls of cork board in a variety of sizes and thicknesses? Gone are the days where you need to purchase a boring one size fits all cork board to hold your reminders and memos. By creating your own bulletin boards using the rolls of cork board, or even fun scrap fabrics and a piece of foamcore and framing it with one of our American made picture frames, you’re able to add style to your walls and create a one of a kind piece.
If you are going the cork board route, we recommend trying to find a board that is at least ¼ inch thick or purchase enough cork to double up so that the push pins have enough space to be added. Panoramic style frames, such as our standard size of 10×20 or 12×36, are perfect for spaces where you don’t have a ton of vertical space but have the available horizontal spaces such as in open cubicle floors with short walls. Splitting up a 12×26 size frame and utilizing both cork and dry erase combining the two using a fun festive ribbon or tape will allow you to be ultra productive. Utilizing our U-Frame Kits makes this process even cheaper due to the ability to purchase the rails you need to fit your space without having extra glazing and backing to recycle.
Frame Your Productivity with Task Trackers and Calendars
If you’re looking to add even more workspace organization frames, consider finding or creating a custom calendar that matches the style you’re wanting for your space and framing it using one of our smaller sizes. Standard sizes such as 11×14 or 12×12 for your calendar, our wood or metal picture frames will come standard with glass that you’re able to then use as a makeshift dry erase board. If you’re digging that maximalist vibe this will allow you to get an ornate frame without breaking the bank! Sites such as Canva.com will even let you add text for reoccurring items or personalize it with images and quotes. Using a tabletop size frame to create a daily check list that you fill in each morning will help expand your personalized space downwards while keeping consistent with the productivity aspect.
Boost Your Workspace Vibes with Framed Inspiration
Now that we have the frames that will help you stay on track with your meetings, tasks and projects, it’s time to expand your space productivity to include a few inspirational quotes. Adding a few quotes that speak the most to you and make you smile to your wall along with your custom framed cork board or calendar dry erase frame will prevent yourself from being weighed down by work and will allow you little moments of peace and grounding as you go about your day. Just like with the calendars, you’re easily able to create these on Canva and use our Design a Frame tool to have them printed and framed so you can spend your time having fun with your DIY frames.
Creating a Frame Wall for Workspace Organization
Now that you have all necessary workspace organization frames and components, we’re here to help you create the best frame wall for you! As with any system, the only way it can be successful is if it works for you and makes your day easier. When choosing the area you want to display your frames, you want to make sure that any frame in which you will be writing on throughout the day or week is close enough to seat that it doesn’t require you to turn or stand to mark on it. For monthly calendars that you simply will be using as reference points, consider putting those in a place where you don’t even have to move to reference them.
Once you have the core frames in place, the additional elements such as the framed inspirational quotes or other keepsakes can then be placed around them completing the vision and setting you up for ultimate success as we move through the year.
Workspace organization doesn’t have to be boring! With frames, you can create a personalized and visually appealing system that keeps you on track and boosts productivity.
