How to Decorate Your Work from Home Desk

This year, you likely shifted from office life to permanent home life with little-to-no preparation. Your days of commuting have been pushed to the past for the time being, and your new work desk is in a makeshift spot in your living room, kitchen, or maybe even your bedroom. This change in workspace may have been creative, to begin with, but without your usual comforts of the office, it may still be far from what felt like a home away from home.

To help decorate your work from home desk to make it feel more invigorating and livelier, adding artificial plants can do just the trick. While adding living plants could also work, the last thing you want during your workday is having more reminders around of what you need to do (i.e. water the plants, add more soil, add more fertilizer, etc.). Faux fauna from Rustic Reach will bring all the greenery to your space to lighten your life without any of the hassles.

Check out these 5 plants to decorate your desk.
