DPG;

If I were you I would look into a good ceramic heater. Ceramic heaters are extremely safe, energy efficient and very inexpensive. They are made to do exactly what you want, heat a small room or office. Unlike radiant heaters which just heat objects in front of them, ceramic heaters heat the air in the room.

Here's a pretty good article describing the different choices of space heaters. http://www.cbsnews.com/2100-500253_162-672592.html

Good Luck and stay warm!!
