What's Christmas without the omnipresent holiday spirit at the office? This year, talk your boss into a tree decorating day for your co-workers to enjoy. In fact, get crafty with this year's decor with the below instructions!:

THE PLAN: Grab some paper plates and construction paper from the storage room and craft this hour-long Christmas tree wall decoration. Adorable, yes? Feel free to turn it into a two-hour-long project, if you know what I mean.

THE ACCENT: Got post-its? Decorate your cubicle with the quick and easy post-it project pictured to the right. Again, feel free to make this not quite as quick as it should be. Every office needs a perfectionist, right?

THE BONUS: What? Did you say bonus? Not that kind, folks -- the only bonus you'll find is some good old-fashioned cheer. And perhaps a few hours away from the desk.

And while you're getting festive, keep in mind a bit of healthy dress code advice: What NOT to Wear at the Holiday Party. Merry Christmas, worker bees!
