Happy Monday!..."Lookin' for Something Fun"

Where do our week-ends go?  It's Monday again already.  I hope you had a fun-filled week-end and hopefully nice weather to go with it. Our's was cold and rainy (today too), so I thought we'd get some inspiration to start our week off with..."Lookin' for Something Fun". I think we can all use a bit of that on Monday, right?

Back to work today...so, why not a new "fun" office chair!  These bright and cheerful chairs would help anyone to get back in the swing of things at their desk. It may be work, but you can be creative there too and let your personality shine (assuming your boss approves, right?).



If not the chair, then what about this stylish mini desk lamp?  It's small enough not to distract your co-workers (or boss) but still gives you a little fun at your desk. I just love them!


Wow...here we have a "fave" of mine...the Wanderlust Chandelier by one of the lighting vendors we use - Currey and Company.  This is just one of their many fabulous lighting creations....this to me..."Simply Irresistible" AND fun!



How about a "pop of fun" with some of these dazzling pillows from Pier 1. I fell in love with this butterfly pillow and all of the fun colors it displays...easy to use in a room with any of these colors!  And then there are the round ones...! They look like ruffled beach balls, don't ya think?  I thought these would "fun up" any room!

                  

  

Let's keep in mind the little personal touches we can add anywhere (home or office) to add a little colorful pleasure to our days. These can be picked up, for little of nothing, at most any of our stores these days...like these fun colorfuls from TJMaxx.


Now we'll throw in a couple of FUN and easy entertaining ideas that are sure to brighten your Monday!  Here is a great little idea I ran across that you can use any time, for any occasion (maybe even for your family at dinner on "Monday" nights!) with fun, colorful paper napkins and plasticware...check this out...


For details on how to do this, visit thesevenyearcottage.com. She has many other simple ideas as well.

And then there is some fun "mashmallow delight"...again from same sight mentioned above.  I'd love to make some of these right now (visit sight for recipe and how-to)!  They look fun and...how "fun" would these treats be to EAT on this... Monday?  Umm, we may just need to try these for FUN!


I sure do hope our "Lookin' for Something Fun" on Monday put a little more prep in your step today.  Let us know if any of these "funs" inspired you to take a step and do something FUN...today or any day of the week! I thought we'd just keep it a little light-hearted to start off our week.

Maybe one of these ideas will help make it a "Simply Irresistible" Mon-Day!
