    47 Desk Accessories That’ll Make Your Work Space Better Than Ever

    Your whole desk vibe will be "capitalism, but I still have a personality."

    1. A mini inflatable tube guy for your desk to help cheer you up or cheer you on — sometimes you and your coworkers just need to treat yourselves to a lil' dance break! 

    Promising review: "My sister-in-law and her brother have an ongoing joke about the wacky waving inflatable flailing arm tube man so this was a perfect find. She said it works and sits on her desk." —R Gooding

    Get it from Amazon for $8.58.

    2. An undetectable mouse jiggler to help folks working at home who need to stay "active" on Gchat, Teams, or Slack and sometimes want to dash out to use the bathroom or walk the dog without doing the whole "BRB, BACK IN A BIT!!" song and dance every time they dare to get up from their desk. Taking breaks = better focus in the long run!

    Promising review: "The mouse mover works exactly as advertised. It's quiet and keeps my computer from going to sleep while I'm reading documents." —Cini

    Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in nine styles). 

    3. A transparent monitor attachment for those of us with an old school, sticky note using habit — this will give you the ability to take the clutter off your desk and put reminders in your clear line of sight.

    Each of the attachment has a sticky film that's strong enough to adhere it to your monitor, but easy enough to remove that it won't damage it.

    Promising review: "Because it’s clear, it is not a distraction when I’m not using it. I no longer lose my little notes." —Mel

    Get it from Amazon for $6.98+ (available in two styles).

    4. An adorably encouraging daily planner you can fill out throughout the course of each day to keep yourself on track for all your calls, goals, and even your water intake. This is especially ideal for hybrid workers because you can tear off each sheet as you go instead of lugging the whole planner around with you!

    Reviewer with their daily planner page filled out

    Each planner comes with 50 tear-off sheets the size of a standard piece of paper.

    Bliss Collections is a family-owned, Wisconsin-based business established in 2012 that specializes in stationery, planners and pads, and drinkware.

    Promising review: "These daily planning sheets keep this mama on TRACK! I started out printing daily planning and schedule sheets from a free download on my computer. Then I realized why not just buy some already printed so I save my ink at home. I found these and love how the day, schedule, tasks, and health habits are organized. I've already reordered once and will continue to use these." —Shannon Hoglund

    Get it from Amazon for $9.99.

    5. Or for the ~big picture~ thinkers, a tear-off weekly notepad to remind you of what the top priorities for each day are, so you don't feel as overwhelmed while powering through them.

    Amazon

    Promising review: "I carry a weekly planner in my bag for scheduling appointments, meetings, classes, etc. Then on Sunday night or Monday morning, I transfer everything from the planner to a sheet from this pad. It stays sitting on the counter in my kitchen where I can easily jot down errands, groceries, etc either in the extra space or on the back. At first this seemed like an unnecessary duplication of effort, so I was looking for a better solution, but I've realized over the past couple of weeks that this really works for me." —Toledo

    Get it from Amazon for $10.50.

    6. A delightfully practical Stojo collapsible travel cup (with a straw!) office workers swear by — unlike stainless steel travel cups, you can reheat this in the office microwave, making this an ideal option for spontaneous coffee consumption between meetings and tasks.

    Check out a TikTok of the Stojo collapsible cup in action. 

    Stojo is a small business that specializes in dishwasher-, microwave-safe storage and travel products with the goal of eliminating single-use plastics. 

    Promising review: "I take my lunch to work and during midday I like to use the Keurig to brew a cup of coffee. The 12-ounce Stojo cup I purchased is very practical. It is thick and durable. The plastic collar enables you to hold the cup without squeezing it or burning your hands on the hot walls of the cup. There is enough volume in the cup to allow for the 12-ounce brew plus ample creamer. It's not a stainless vacuum cup, but it does hold its temperature better than your typical gas station or coffee shop cup. Plus you have the advantage of being able to reheat your drink in the microwave which you can't do with a stainless cup. ViciousCycle

    8. A desk-friendly HappyLight sunlamp that will be both a literal and metaphorical ~light of your life~ — this adjustable light can help improve your sleep, mood, and energy levels, particularly if you're working in a situation where you don't get a lot of direct sunlight.

    Amazon

    Promising review: "I work from home at night. I never see the light of day during the winter. This light has been a joy to have and gives great light at my desk to work with with the benefit of mimicking sun exposure. It’s very easy to use and to replace bulbs." —Amazon Customer

    Get it from Amazon for $59.99 (clip the coupon on the product page to save $10). 

    9. wireless keyboard and mouse set because if you're going to be spending eight hours a day in the same darn spot, curating the vibe isn't just a priority, but an *essential*.

    Psst — this takes AA batteries for the mouse and keyboard. 

    Promising review: "Absolutely amazing keyboard. Colors are eye-catching and make a drab office pop with color! I am currently the envy of the office. Ladies in the other departments are waiting on their own to come in now after seeing mine. Easy plug/play. It travels between home and office with me." —Nikki Bell

    Get it from Amazon for $40.99 (clip the coupon on the product page to save $3; available in 12 styles).

    10. A set of floppy disk coasters to remind you of the good old days, where there were only one or two ways you could accidentally miss a correspondence from a coworker instead of 15,000.

    Three coasters shaped like neon floppy disks in pink, orange, and blue with cute messages written on them

    Promising review: "These coasters are really cool in my book. They are fun to play with and the colors are fun as well. Definitely a cool gift for office folks and IT geeks." —Terry H

    11. A file folder/book/Cool Stuff holder that'll not only help you organize desk sitch, but will give you the opportunity to maybe prove to your coworkers you have a personality that isn't just "eats tuna salad for lunch." 

    rose gold slotted wire organizer holding pink file folders
    same organizer in gold holding books about plants

    Promising review: "I have a few papers that I need for reference while I’m working, but not enough to justify needing an entire file cabinet to store them. This is such a cute way to keep things handy without making my desk look super cluttered. It’s part desk decor, part organization system." —Paige

    Get it from Amazon for $15.99 (available in three colors).

    12. A user-friendly hexagonal productivity timer with six present countdown times you can initiate just by flipping it on its side. Not only does it have an oh-so-satisfying display screen you can use to count up or down, but it has a "mute" option so you won't disturb your coworkers when you're trying to do an email answering power hour (help). 

    Promising review: "Love love love this product. Simple design, works great. I time myself during writing sessions so I'm not sitting in long stretches. This little timer is perfectly shaped and has several pre-programmed time options. Highly recommend." —Mimi Foster 

    Get it from Amazon for $39.99 (clip the coupon on the product page to save $4; available in three colors). 

    13. A dimmable sad duck nightlight because sometimes you just have to look at this emotionally deflated creature on your desk and be like, "Welp. At least I'm doing better than that little dude."

    Amazon

    Promising review: "I ordered this lamp because of its appearance. I didn't NEED a depressed duck lamp ... but it has totally filled a void in my life I didn't know existed. Everyone who sees it pokes it. The lamp is actually very functional. It's got a really nice set of brightness options and the glow is yellowish, which is much nicer than white in a dim/dark room. One thing that isn't mentioned in the description is that its legs are utterly floppy. It's terrific." —Literated

    Get it from Amazon for $15.99 (available also in dog and pear styles... I don't know, you do do). 

    14. A set of elegant matching desk accessories to bring some order to your space, and establish yourself as the Unrepentant Instagram Aesthetic Coworker. (Someone's gotta do it!!)

    Get it from Amazon for $29.99 (available in pink and white).

    15. A set of Monkey Noodles designed as a quiet sensory toy that stretches, pulls, twirls, wraps, *and* squeezes, helping calm anxiety during long meetings, brainstorms, and video conferencing marathons that laugh in the face of Dolly Parton's "9 To 5."

    Promising review: "This is my absolute favorite fidget! I’m an adult with autism and ADHD. I carry one around with me everywhere I go. It definitely assists me in staying calm/still while I’m at work. I’ve recommended it to several friends!" —KaelynnVP

    Get a set of five from Amazon for $12.99.

    16. Plus the "Ono Roller," a compact fidget toy specifically designed for adults that helps to encourage focus and relieve stress and anxiety with its frictionless, noiseless rolling. It's a bit more expensive than competitors, but reviewers love the satisfaction of the rolling feeling and attest to how ridiculously durable it is against even the most frequent of fidgeting.

    Ono is a small business specializing in compact, work-friendly fidgets for focus and stress relief. 

    Promising review: "I have had ADHD since I was a small child, and this is the only thing I've ever found that helps me focus. It's quiet, durable, and keeps my mind occupied so I can focus (ADHD people will understand what I mean by that). A bit pricey, but worth every penny in my opinion!" —Amazon Customer

    Get it from Amazon for $34.99 (available in four colors and in a junior size for kids and people with smaller hands). 

    17. A lil' reversible octopus plush that is, literally and figuratively, a Mood — you can prop this on your desk just to let everyone know how you're vibin' (or even just to check in with yourself ❤️).

    Angry green octopus plushie turned inside out

    Also, these come in a TON of different colors and emotions (from angry to sad to, uh, murderous??), so you're guaranteed to find one to express yourself.

    Promising review: "I saw this on TikTok like everyone else but I quickly realized, when I got one, how helpful this is to my family. Now they don't have to guess when they shouldn't bother me, they'll just KNOW. It's saving lives and it's adorable. The perfect thing. :)" —MCalms

    Get it from Amazon for $15+ (available in 42 styles).

    18. A quirky, oh-so-cheerful desk mat because you're not a *regular* nine-to-fiver, you're a COOL nine-to-fiver. This is non-slip and ultra-smooth, making it an ideal surface for a mouse to glide on.

    Promising review: "I love this mat; it feels great, and the colors are so vibrant. I was surprised how flat it lays even though it is shipped rolled up. 10/10 recommend!" —Vgirl

    Get it from Amazon for $17.99 (available in 23 styles).

    19. Or a mousepad that subtly tells anyone approaching your desk, "Hey, if you're going to offload a bunch of tasks on a random person today, maybe...don't." 🫠

    Promising review: "Ordered this to use at work, and every single person who's seen it has commented on how funny it is. The quality is great, color is bold, and the printed lines/edges are clear (no blurring of the image). It's slightly larger than a standard mouse pad, which I kind of like. Definitely a great buy and worth the cost." —K Kuykendall

    Get it from Amazon for $12.99 (also available in six other styles).

    20. A cleverly designed mug warmer to put competing mug warmers to shame — this one *only* warms up when you trigger the sensor by setting your mug down on it, so you don't have to worry about the heat of the pad if you forget to unplug it and leave it unattended. This is every office worker and slow coffee guzzler's DREAM. 

    Promising review: "I drink coffee pretty much all day especially during the fall and winter. It was a hassle to go back and forth to the kitchen at work to warm my coffee. I saw this product and thought I’d try it and I absolutely LOVE it. It has a weight sensor so it turns on when you place your cup on the top plate and turns off when cup is lifted. I use it at work daily. I also think you could place a candle in a glass container on the warmer and it would work as well. My coffee is never too hot. It’s perfect. The only CON is that I wish it had a longer cord so I could move to a diff spot on my desk." —Kim bur lee

    Get it from Amazon for $23.99+ (clip the coupon on the product page to save 10%; available in four styles). 

    21. A tiny (and adorable!!) cactus humidifier that operates on a USB cable, so you can keep the air in your designated computer space cozy and hydrating while you conquer the 57 tabs open on your monitor one by one.

    Amazon

    Promising review: "I LOVE these little humidifiers! I bought my first one to use at my desk at work, because the air is so dry in the building, and it has been a godsend. Not only does it help keep my sinuses happier, but it looks great too. I bought a second one for my nightstand that I use while I sleep at night, and they both work perfectly." —Selene Schneider

    Get it from Amazon for $15.89 (available in two styles).

    22. A felt letter board you can use to leave little inspirational messages to yourself, like "Do your best! ❤️ " or "GET THE HECK OFF TWITTER ALREADY." (*sighs deeply at self*)

    Promising review: "I got this letter board to set up at my desk at work. It's a big hit. I love the look and design of the board itself and so far I have yet to not have enough letters/numbers/symbols/punctuation to complete the message I wanted to put on it." —ThePinkPenguin

    Get it from Amazon for $20.95+ (available in 27 colors and four sizes).

    23. A cascading wall organizer to make it *ridiculously* easy to have all your paperwork organized and at eye level when you need it, and also to take it with you when you're on the move or working hybrid in-office and at home. But let's be real the main draw of this is the absolute FLEX of whipping it out in front of your coworkers.

    Promising review: "Organization perfection. I hate file folders stacked on my desk. I pinned this on the wall behind my desk for quick access to several files/papers. It’s a game changer!! More space on my desk too." —Angela Gutierrez 

    Get it from Amazon for $8.82 (available in four colors). 

    24. A low-impact under-the-desk elliptical for anyone who gets distracted by aches and pains from sitting in one position all day — this can help keep your body loose so you can keep your brain occupied on the tasks at hand. 

    It also comes with a digital display that tracks time, speed, and distance, as well as eight different modes of resistance, so you can tailor it exactly to your needs.

    Promising review: "No assembly required! Took right out of the box and put it under my desk. Spend long hours on the computer and suffer from hip and leg pain. Use the exerciser on and off all day especially first thing in the morning to loosen up joints. Felt the different in just a couple of days. Just what I needed." —Amazon Customer

    Get it from Amazon for $107.99+ (available in four styles).

    25. Plus a discreet under-desk electric treadmill all the ~restless~ office workers will truly appreciate — this gizmo will go anywhere from .5 to six miles per hour so you can stay loose and focused on the job. The LED display even comes equipped with a Bluetooth you can sync music with. (Praise be to your Work Jams playlist on Spotify!!) Bonus: this comes as-is, with no assembly required, and easily slides under a bed or couch for storage.

    Promising review: "This thing is awesome. I'm a small, not technical person and managed to haul this thing up two flights of stairs (slowly), unbox, turn on and even connect my phone to the Bluetooth in it. No assembly. Simple instructions. Distance and time measurements seem to be accurate, but the 'calories' might be missing a decimal point. No squealing or groaning under my walking. Not too loud. Slides right under my bed. Didn't need to adjust the belt, though the tool to do so is included. Packaging says to oil every 30 hours. The remote is needed to make the treadmill function. It is extremely cheap — like dollar store cheap. Even still, I would 100% buy this again. Great treadmill!" —Crowells

    Get it from Amazon for $289.99+ (available in four colors).

    26. A crayon vase to brighten up your desk because minimalism is OUT and recapturing the lawless joy of going to clown town on a coloring book is IN!!!!

    Brighttia is a New York-based Etsy shop established in 2018 that specializes in industrial and modern interior lighting and decor.

    Promising review: "These brass cable organizers are beautiful and high quality. I’m using two of them to keep a plug-in sconce cord attached to the wall and to direct the cord to the electrical outlet. These little gold pieces add a touch of functionality and glamour to the sconces. Exactly what I was looking for." —Amy Margolis

    Get a set of two from Brighttia on Etsy for $11.98 (available in 12 colors).

    28. A mini tabletop fan so you can stay cool literally *and* figuratively while plugging away at your desk. This cutie has two speeds and tilts so you can get the air flow at the precise angle you need, and gives off just enough of a steady hum for a soothing vibe during crunch hours.

    Promising review: "Got this for my office, as our HVAC is temperamental. It has two speeds to choose from, and I find both not overly loud. It gives a decent breeze and helps fight off the heat and stuffiness on the days that the AC is not up to par. It's a good compact size, and I love the retro styling. It fits perfectly on my desk. I kept going back and forth as to whether or not to buy it. I'm so glad I did! It's been a lifesaver many times over." —bvegan

    Get it from Amazon for $39.99 (available in seven styles). 

    29. A six-outlet wall charger designed specifically for larger chargers that also comes equipped with two USB fast-charging ports *and* a night-light — meaning now you can finally end your annoying daily ritual of unplugging and re-plugging things in the tangle of wires under your desk.

    Charger with several large plugs in it

    Promising review: "Need something simple so I could plug in all the electronics at my desk. This is much nicer than just a standard power strip since it doesn't add any more cords to the chaos. Plugs are angled enough that they don't get in the way of you having several things plugged in. For reference I usually have my laptop charger, monitor, Google home mini, lamp, and phone charger plugged in at any given point in time. Night-light is a nice addition." —Samantha

    Get it from Amazon for $17.97 (clip the coupon on the product page to save 5%). 

    30. Or a flexible power strip complete with three outlets, two USB ports, and a five-foot extension cable designed so you can fit it into weird nooks and crannies around or under your desk, so you can have the perfect set up for your home *and* office spaces.

    Promising review: "I rarely write a review (this is the second in the past few years). One of the best purchases in a long time. Nice design and very practical. It solves all of my problems as it can go any direction. It's worth every penny. I turned around and bought two more. I am about to buy my fourth one. Love this!" —Pond P.

    Promising review: "Awesome addition to my workspace environment. I've tried several fountains so far. This one is awesome, the pump is quiet, as is the water, it simply provides a really nice environmental impact on my workspace. I run it up to eight hours in a day, use distilled water only and clean it periodically, and it's running just like new after several weeks. Not all of the fountains that I've tried work quite so well, I'm impressed and happy with this purchase." —Rod

    Get it from Amazon for $23.99.

    32. A set of clear drawer organizers, because as much fun as it is to go on a little treasure hunt every time you need a highlighter (is that a CVS receipt from ... eight months ago??) it's starting to feel a liiiiittle unprofesh. 

    Promising review: "These organizers are perfect. I use them at my makeup station, work desk, bathroom drawers, and pantry. They are so sturdy and easy to clean. I will continue to purchase these as I organize my house!" —Kylie Manns

    Promising review: "I love it! I got it so fast after ordering and it’s perfect. I love the sleek design for my small home office space. I can’t function at work without a dry erase board but couldn’t find any that would look nice in my office space which is in the corner of my master bedroom! Having functional office space but not LOOK like office in the bedroom is challenging but this acrylic board is PERFECT. The black pen that comes with it is very nice fine tip and erases without a trace." —Dawn Powell

    Get it from 1801 & Co. on Etsy for $13.46+ (originally $23.95+; available in multiple thicknesses and sizes).

    34. Or a desktop whiteboard to not only serve as little reminders for day-to-day tasks, but to give your coworkers an adorable way of leaving "GREETINGS, FELLOW OFFICE DRONE!!" notes when you're out at lunch.

    Each set includes a dry erase marker. Check out a TikTok of the whiteboard attachment in action. 

    Promising review: "I bought this for work, and within days, multiple coworkers stopped over to check it out. At least one of them has already purchased one, and several others said they are going to. What one person uses it for is to jot down notes to herself through the day. What I use it for is to mark down the two most important things I want to get done each day. If you also get a pack of colored markers, you can easily color-code (prioritize) items for this board. I love it and wish I bought one years ago." —Mark A. Baron

    36. An adjustable foam footrest to help alleviate hip, leg, and lower back pain at a *fraction* of the price of a fancy ergonomic chair or other expensive solution. This even flips over to become a "rocking" footrest — a boon for all fidgety, restless office workers everywhere.

    Promising reviews: "Not only is this holder adorable, it actually stays in place! I've had other dispensers that would move around or fall over when I would grab a sticky note from it, which defeats the purpose. Nice to have it work right! Doesn't take up a ton of space either." —Libra Lady 78

    Get it from Amazon for $16.29.

    38. An adorable "pop of color" webcam blocker for anyone whose legal middle name is "juuuuust in case." Now you can slide this over your camera to make sure you don't accidentally provide a sideshow of eating a lunch wrap the size of your face after Zoom meetings.

    Promising review: "I’m one of those who never leaves a review, but this deserves one. I bought this for my new MacBook M1 after reading horror stories how other products cracked/broke MacBooks because of the stickiness on them and not being able to be removed, and I have to say I am so happy I went with this one! They’re not to a point where I feel like I can wipe them off, but they are sticky enough where I feel comfortable keeping it on until I want to change colors without a ton of force. They’re also thin enough to comfortably close my computer. And no, they’re not see-through." —Tiffany

    Promising review: "Cute little alarm clock with multiple alarm music you can choose from. Alarms are easy to set and has a Monday-Friday or Monday-Sunday option. Had it for a few months and only had to charge via USB once so the battery is quite good!" —justin

    Promising review: "I've been looking at these for months and finally decided to buy one. Super happy with my purchase. I didn’t want to replace my entire work desk so I opted for this. The entire unit slides up and down easily. Plenty of room around the monitor for speakers, pens, notes, even a fan. easily assembly. Not too heavy. I’ve really enjoyed being able to stand at my desk. I’ve been struggling with lower back pain and standing more seems to be helping. I find myself wanting to stand more often than I thought." —halaly

    Promising review: "Really nice mat, helps with leg and back fatigue. I stand up 50 percent of the time at my desk and I can feel the difference in the two weeks I've had this product. It seems to have the right balance of comfort and support. It is a little pricey compared to other brands, but it is very solidly made and it appears it will last a long time. Worth the extra money, in my opinion." —Jeff

    Promising review: "I usually store my glasses in their case. I don't know why that's such a hassle, but I like to be able to just reach for them. But they are also unsafe when they are just sitting on my desk. This little koala solves my problem! He holds my glasses securely and does it in the cutest way possible. Now I can sit at my desk, grab my glasses, and get to work with a smile on my face. And at the end of the day, I just leave them with my koala for safe keeping. Seriously, just get one. I haven't lost my glasses once since I got this." —Bianca
