Hi! So I need your help if you have time to spare it! I'm a new graduated mental health counselor and I just got an office space. I have never decorated a space in my life and I'm overwhelmed! I have only vauge ideas and an almost nonexistent budget. The walls will be a light color and I'm thinking maybe dark furniture/bold accents with an industrial feel. But Idk how to translate that to an office setting. I'll be stalking ur blog for inspo but I felt u might be a great person to ask, thnx!

cool! the good thing about industrial style is that it’s pretty minimalist and you won’t have to have a ton of pieces to make it look nice! The inspo pix we are working with are below, and then I’ll get into my recommendations…

I’m assuming this is like a therapy room, so I think the main things needed to achieve this look are a good rug, a couch, an accent chair, and a few decor pieces. 

A good way to warm up the space and make it cozy + comfortable for clients is accent pillows! A velvet one like this or a textured one like this would be really nice. These are also easy to DIY - get some sherpa or fleece fabric for ~$12 a yard and sew pillow cases! 

I like this couch because it’s minimal and small for an office space, and I really like the look of dark brown leather for industrial spaces. The price is also decent! 

This would be a good accent chair, and the reviews say it’s comfortable despite the industrial look! 

This is a cool, industrial/minimal lamp to make the space feel cozier. The price is great too. 

I think Goodwill/Value Village would be a great spot to find decor pieces. I would stick to one or two colors and a lot of texture! Look for vintage black and brass planters, muted pottery pieces, and abstract prints!

For my social psychology class I have to break a social norm, have any suggestions?

Social norms can be both positive and negative at the same time. Try to pick something that you can do on your own-  something that isn’t likely to trigger social anxiety in those around you. For example, be respectful of others’ personal space.

11 Question Meme (Again!)

1. Always post the rules

2. Answer the questions of the person who tagged you

4. Tag as many people, or not, at random

5. Tell them you tagged them

6. Tag me in your responses

raincloudedleopard's questions:

1. What is your favorite genre to read and why?

I tend to like historical fiction. People in general are interesting creatures to me--and putting them into context alongside very real events makes for an intriguing story.

2. Do you have a favorite soda?

I guess Coca-Cola. But honestly, I'm such a big soda drinker that I'll drink just about any kind: Sprite, diet, Dr. Pepper, Ginger-ale, orange, Mountain Dew, grape, root beer, etc., etc. 

3. What would your dream bedroom look like?

Something like this, I should think. With more bookshelves.

4. What was the last movie you saw, and did you enjoy it?

The last movie I watched was on TV: The Pursuit of Happyness with Will Smith. I really enjoyed it, actually. Hard not to like a good underdog story.

5. Have you ever been to New York City?

Several times. (I'm not the biggest fan.)

6. What kinds of music do you enjoy listening to?

Mostly my radio is tuned to country. I like a variety of genres, though. I love soundtracks and broadway, but I also listen to a lot of oldies (particularly rock 'n' roll.) I tend not to be familiar with that's music super popular at the moment.

7. Tea, coffee, or both, or neither?

Coffee. Coffeecoffeecoffee. I usually only drink tea (with honey!) when I'm sick.

8. How do you cheer yourself up after having a bad day?

Food, a good book, or something equally distracting.

9. Do you prefer to have your hair shorter or longer?

I think I like my hair somewhere in the middle. I like to be able to put it up in a ponytail, so not overly short. My hair also tends to grow abnormally fast, so when I have it long, I tend to complain about exactly how long it is. 

Hence: middle.

10. What is one thing you enjoyed doing as a child?

I loved to dance. Tap was my favorite.

11. Should you be studying right now?

Probably. Macroeconomics is calling my name.
