How to Set Up a Standing Desk Home Office?
You may be confused at the beginning. However, take a deep breath, read our article and write down some of our ideas.
1. Choose a nice location
If your standing desk is located somewhere in the dark corner of the house, it will not make you happy. Try to choose a bright spot with sunlight. The best location is next to the window. So you can make a small break in between and enjoy the view outside.
2. Add some accessories for your desk
Make your standing desk look cute. Add some flowers or some pictures of friends and family. You will have some cute memories and warm moments in small breaks.
3. Get some accessories for yourself
Since a standing desk allows you to work sitting and standing, use an opportunity to adjust the height of your standing desk together with the position of your laptop and keyboard. Since you might be standing for some time, make it as comfortable as possible. Get an CPU holder, a balance mat or a standing chair to enjoy your time at a standing desk.
4. How to set up a standing desk home office cool option:Β set up a mini bar or a buffet
Having fancy snacks and drinks from time to time is awesome. A standing desk gives you a cool opportunity to have a small mini bar or a mini buffet with your favourite snacks and drinks. You can grab a delicious donut, some fresh lemonade or some fruits anytime.
5. Hide things you do not want to look at
Some things may be irritating, for example, some bright colours or something that brings memories back to you. Some things like TV may also be annoying so you will have a temptation to switch it on.

If I may add, one thing that I personally find very good for a home work setup is some sort of plants, for instance, I personally love having a cactus near my screen, it is nice to look at and it also ‘eats’ some of the radiation of the screen!
