Many of us find ourselves in cubicle environments, which sometimes are not very conducive to creative self-expression. Find pictures of family for friends to hang, bring items that inspire you or customizing your cubicle for holidays. With the winter months approaching, it's time to consider decorating your cube for the winter months.

    Window Clings or Gels

  1. One way to bring a new look to your cubicle is by using window clings. Clings are typically a translucent color, and adhere well to cubicle glass or metal. They are very simple to remove and can be reused the following year. You can find several varieties of clings or window gels to fit your preferences. By using neutral winter decorations like snowflakes, you should be able to keep your decorations up for a longer period of time, while not infringing on any co-workers' religious beliefs.
  2. Christmas Lights

  3. Your company may have an office policy on approved decorations, or items that can be used within your cubicle, for safety reasons. Before you venture into hanging your own cubicle Christmas lights, it is worth revisiting your office safety or decorating policy. Christmas lights spruce up your cubicle and can be tastefully strung across cube walls. Try to choose lights that are one color, that do not have a strobe effect and that do not play music. You don't want to distract your co-workers from their jobs.
  4. Artificial Snow

  5. You may want to bring artificial snow to your cube. The best type to use in your workspace will be quick to clean up without much mess. Several craft stores sell a snow that is similar to cotton. Bring in a few of your favorite winter collectibles that have minimal value and nest them in your snow for a wintry scene setting.
  6. Ornaments Aren't Just for Trees

  7. Christmas ornaments are another item to use to give your cubicle new life in the winter. Purchase "no-shatter" ornaments to ensure the safety of your work environment. Fill a plastic or glass container with your favorite colored ornaments. Display your creation on your desk or a display shelf.
  8. Candy Canes

  9. Candy canes are a tasty way to decorate your cubicle in the winter. Most varieties are very inexpensive and come in wide varieties of flavors. They are eye-catching, can be used as decorations and can be given to spread holiday cheer. Fill a clear container with small candy canes, and when your co-worker is having a bad day, treat them to a candy cane to lift their spirits.
