What special/unique items do you keep on your desk? Why?
My desk is quite small (which I’m hoping to change soon) so there’s not a lot of space for décor. But hanging above my desk is a grouping of frames with some of my favorite things – notes and ideas, a wedding photo, goofy pics of my husband and I; and artwork that was gifted to me by one of my best friends.
Also, I always make sure that my computer desktop wallpaper matches my iPhone wallpaper which matches my laptop wallpaper. I’m “unique” (read: “a design freak”) like that.
What things on your desktop make you Work Happy?
A cup full of black pens and fine-tip markers. I’m obsessed with pens, and they just look so good all grouped together.
What is your favorite Poppin item on your desk and why?
I love my black ruler – the awesome oversized typography is a total win. I like when everyday objects are given a playful edge.
Fill in the blank: “I always have ______________ on my desk.”
I always have my Moleskine planner on my desk. Try as I might to adapt to a digital calendar, I just love the satisfaction of writing by hand.
