Colorful Home Offices for the Dreary Tax Day!

Hopefully by now you have filed your taxes but if not, you have a few more hours. What better way to bring in the dreary tax day than with colorful home offices! Would having one of these offices inspire you to be more organized, get more work done? Which one is your favorite?

For more of my favorite home workspaces and for photo sources check out my Workspaces Pinterest Page.

Lilly Pulitzer

Today, a preppy fashion icon pasted away but left us with a world in which pink and green and fum whimsical colorful prints will continue to live on. She started her company at age 21 and designed colorful fun prints that would hide the stains from her juice stand! Now her clothing has been a staple for Easter, Bridal & Baby Showers, Carolina Cup, Sorority Rush, etc!

April Showers

Check out some of my favorite shower images I have collected over the years! One thing is for certain, I think I have a hankering for Calcutta Marble or mixed blue tiles! I didn't even plan on this, but as I looked through my images I saw a theme! What is your favorite type of shower?
