Decorating Your Desk with Photo Products

What Kind of Decorator Are You?

Whether working in the office or from home, the way one designs their desk varies widely from one individual to the next. Some prefer to keep their desk clean and orderly while others leave stacks of files and other personal belongings lying all over the place. Here you’ll find out what kind of “desk person” you are and get some inspiration on how you can give your desk a whole new look with photo products.

Desk Type “Family (Wo)Man”

The family (wo)man likes to decorate their desk with photos of their loved ones: their partner, children, grandchildren, and family pets all help make their personal space a bit warmer.

A photo display with a really nice picture of the family will really spruce things up and be the perfect companion for your desk for years to come. The display is available in three different sizes. The glossy, scratch-resistant surface will prominently show off your photo.

The photo display goes perfectly hand in hand with a personalised mouse pad: take a photo of something like a picture your child or grandchild drew and print it out on a mouse pad. You’ll have many design templates at your fingertips while creating your mouse pad. You could also choose multiple photos and create your mouse pad with a collage of your best pictures.

Desk Type “Optimist”

The optimist likes to surround themselves with things like motivational posters: their desk is decorated with humorous postcards and Post-its with quotes. To keep the level of organisational chaos to a minimum and to have the day’s order of business at hand while enjoying their morning coffee, a photo flip with motivational words and a personalised photo mug make the perfect desk companions for the optimist.

The photo flip offers enough space for 25 full-page photos and gives your desk deco a bit of variety. Its sturdy stand ensures it sits secure on any desk surface and can be ordered online in just a few minutes. You can easily find popular motivational quotes online and then add them to your favourite photos using photo-editing software and you’re ready to go!

There are a multitude of designs and layouts at your disposal to design a photo mug for either a right- or left-handed person or alternatively with a panoramic photo. Many of our designs give you room to add both text and photos, which gives you the perfect place to add your most favourite motivational quote.

Desk Type “World Traveller”

The world traveller is always either on holiday or planning their next upcoming trip - it only makes sense, then, that they decorate their desk with souvenirs and photos from their travels so they feel like they’re on holiday even when at the office. This kind of person has a lot of photos and likes change.

Ideal and practical for this desk type is a desk calendar. You can choose any starting month and it comes with robust spiral binding as well as a stable stand. 12 holiday photos for 12 months and a cover page with three of your best snapshots will give you plenty of variety every month.

Top off your desk deco with your all-time favourite photo printed on a photo mouse pad and you’ll always have this cherished moment in sight.

Desk Type “Amateur Musician”

The amateur musician either plays in a band themselves or likes to frequent concerts. Their workspace is bedecked with band posters or other band memorabilia. The amateur musician can really personalise their desk by adding some self-shot photos:

A photo poster featuring one of your favourite concert photos or perhaps a picture of your favourite band complimented by a photo flip featuring 25 memory-filled photos from great concerts and performances will give your desk an awesome new look.

Tip: If you don’t have wall space to hang up a photo poster, you could alternatively utilise the poster as a desk pad in landscape format. Just lay a suitably sized glass panel on top and your own personalised work surface is already complete. You can also always change things up a bit by switching out posters or making a collage out of several smaller photos.

Desk Type “Hobby Gardener”

The hobby gardener uses their green thumb to decorate the office: green plants, and photos from their home, garden, and most beautiful flowers compliment their desk. Give your desk a touch of nature and create a colourful and stimulating workspace.

Start off your day right with your favourite warm beverage in a floral-designed photo mug. Compliment this with a photo flip designed with early bloomers, summer flowers, stunning autumn photos, and white winter landscapes to perfectly top off your desk deco.
