Cubicle Makeover | How To Create A Happier And More Productive Workspace | The Home Primp
Is cubicle decor a thing? It certainly is. And it’s your ticket to a happier, more productive work day. This week, in our Youtube video series The Home Primp, Home Editor Alexandra Gater sets out to transform a small, dark and unorganized office cubicle into a bright, happy and healthy workspace. The key is bringing things from home to make it feel comfortable and adding in lots of colour and pattern through accessories like plants, art and light (like, lots of light people!) Alexandra also adds in a diffuser, which is a great way to keep you relaxed throughout the workday. Watch as she transforms this cubicle in the middle of a corporate office into a cozy oasis.

A boob bath mat- uh NOT work appropriate!! Too many little plants, dishes – it was more cluttered after! A carafe if water- gross – office air can get in there
Yes to the makeover……no to the boob mat!!!
Hi Katie Underwood….how is Francis Underwood ?
Great job really cute
This is amazing !!! Trying to get an internship and it has a cubicle ! Thank you for the ideas
💖
I wish we were allowed to use essential oil diffusers at my new job.
What the eff… "and of course a boob bath mat"… Of course what?? Where’s the explanation on that one??
How does that water carafe take up any less space than her filter? And it’s open – good for dust and spilling. 🙄🙃
Using all of these ideas for my cubicle. Minus the bath mat
Alexandra I love your coat. It suits you!
That mat would get you fired so fast…
Amazing
Is this like a joke, like? I’m not sure what to call this, like…is this like valley girl talk?…or like, what is this with the weird high voice pitches that they like, thrown in…and the little head tilts? like, oh ma god like.
I have done very similar with Woodprix designs.
At least it’s white. My cubicle is the most depressing grey.
OH i want those floating shelf things
So many of these items would never be allowed in the office I work in nor would I want a boob mat in my cubicle or anywhere. This is lacking so much common sense. And this is not less than $50.
Great ideas! I’ll definitely use some
a BOOB bathmat? for the OFFICE? What are ya’ll smoking?
Really? A boob mat? Grow up.
Love all these ideas! For the people complaining about the style…it’s easily customizable. Use your imagination please. Wrapping paper/wall paper and mats come in various designs. Just choose what would fit in your office and be acceptable. Battery operated lights, even fake plants, trays and baskets for holding items, the display box for pens and pencils all very cute ideas that can be easily customized and incorporated. Imagination…🌈
Right when I saw Alexandra my first thought was "**** YES!"
Of course the bath mat and profanity-laiden decor are beyond inappropriate, but am I the only one also bothered that the parrot paper was hung sideways? This "primp" was pretty much a failure for me.
Okay, we get it. The boob mat was extreme for an office. EVERYBODY PLEASE MOVE ON.
The rest of the items were decent for a cubicle setting!
Double take, boob bath mat, why? It’s tacky AF girl and not office appropriate. 🤦♀️
Perfect timing! Looking for ideas for my plants. Beautiful project. Quick question…whats the color of the accent wall? 1:27
All I can think about (besides the random boob mat) is how much dust and gross stuff is getting in her water now. Besides, where did the water filter pitcher even go?
I would love to have a scent diffuser in my office, but I have to think of others. This is such a ridiculous makeover, and then there’s the boob mat.
Love this (except for the boob mat which is a bit weird). Also not sure if I would want to make my workspace look like a living room – you are supposed to work after all, not relax! However I wish we had cubicles at work, absolutely hate the open plan offices we have in the UK.
The boobs at work – my HR nightmare lol! This is my first time watching all of these (been following AG – for so long), can’t believe I’ve never seen them!
This book though 4:45
I love your replacement idea for the whiteboard. I thought about buying a whiteboard but the bigger ones tend to be quite expensive. Now I know what I’ll be doing instead.
Literally it’s just a boob mat y’all calm down
I love the pretty plate that her creams are placed on. Where can I get it?
Loved it! Gave me lots of inspo 🙂
Wow that is so cool 😕😒
Btw l am a gg girly girl
The f*ck love book threw me off
That book and the boob mat instant trip to HR for like 99.9% of cubicle jobs
Look @AlexandraGater three years ago ! 💪
I am alexandra’s fan but must say she made the cubical workspace into bathroom 😂
A diffuser in a shared space?

I would never be able to have any of that at my job! Is just now allowed
the wallpapers are kinda incohesive and distracting… and the boob mat
Can’t imagine myself bringing in wallpaper boob bath Matt and lights and no one say anything lol
I agree with the comments below . You can do better!
Replacing the water filter with the carafe? Why tho??
what about cubicles with fabric walls?
Please where did you get the floating shelf from??
Wallpaper no 👎 maybe wallpaper designs could have been more in keeping with work environment
