Monday Morning Mix

It's Monday morning, you're back to work and the weekend is over.  Most of us have a full week of work ahead, and if you are anything like me, you aren't always motivated to jump into the week head first.  I like to find simple ways to perk up my Mondays, whether it's a trip to Starbucks, lunch from Chick-fil-A (which happens a little too often), or popping into a favorite store.  Every Monday, I would like to share a mix of images, products, ideas, you get the drift, to motivate us to tackle the week or just put an inspiring design idea in your mind to start the week off right.  Welcome Monday Morning Mix!

Make your bathroom more like another room in the home.  This image shows numerous ways - lamps, a rug, a chair, garden stool or chandelier.

Since it is the first of the month, make a list of all things that need to be done at work or at home that you have put off, and set goals of when you would like to complete them.  (Pictured below is my Thomas Paul "to do" list that doubles as a mouse pad.  Genius!  This was a great stocking stuffer courtesy of Mom.)
