1. A budget-friendly wireless keyboard and mouse set I've spotted in the background of countless TikTok desk setups — it adds such a lovely pop of color so you can type away in style. These fun peripherals are bound to make you just a *little* happier every time you sit down to work.
The set includes a wireless keyboard and mouse with a USB receiver for a 2.4GHz connection. Pick up some AA batteries; both will need them!
You can check out how the clicking sounds in this TikTok.
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. Love the keys on this as well. Sleep mode seems to pop on kinda quick, but it's nothing bad. Just push a button or click the mouse and it's on again. I have had mine for about a month now and will not be going back to any other style!" —Nikki Bell
Get it from Amazon for $28.71+ (available in 11 styles).
2. Or a dreamy, splurge-worthy Logitech mechanical keyboard with an adorable (and v cushy) cloud wrist rest — perfect for achieving that TikTok-popular ~cozy~ desk aesthetic. It uses Logitech's Lightspeed wireless tech for low-latency gaming, with a 25-hour rechargeable battery life and vibey RGB lighting that can be customized.
It comes in a sleek, gorgeous white, but you can get colored top plates (like the pink one I'm currently using, shown above) direct from Logitech's store for $19.99!
Check out an unboxing + see it in action on TikTok! I'm seeing it in a ton of setups lately.
I've used both the wireless and wired versions of this mechanical keyboard, both for gaming and for everyday work, and absolutely love it. I had a full-sized keyboard before, so I really appreciate the more compact tenkeyless design of this keyboard (which fits on my desk better). The keys sound perfectly clicky and feel great to type on, and the cloud wrist rest keeps my wrists supported really comfortably. And even though I've been using wrist rest for 8+ hours a day for so long, it still looks totally new! My favorite thing is undeniably the aesthetic, though. It's the prettiest keyboard I've ever had, in a really sleek and modern way. I highly recommend it whether you play PC games or just work from home!
Also! If you love the look of that cloud wrist rest and don't need a new keyboard, it's *finally* available for individual purchase at Logitech!
Get it from Amazon for $149.99+ (available wired or wireless, with three types of switches, and with or without a mouse).
3. A six-outlet wall charger and surge protector, which doubles as a night-light with a dusk-to-dawn sensor — it automatically turns on when ambient light in the area isn't enough to see. It's designed to handle those annoyingly bulky chargers, PLUS it has two USB fast-charging ports, meaning you can finally put an end to your daily routine of plugging and unplugging things underneath your desk.
Check it out in this TikTok unboxing.
Promising review: "I work from home in a small apartment, and this really made my setup work the way I want it to. I need to use all six plugs, plus I like to keep my phone and MiFi charging while working too. This was the perfect thing for me to get everything plugged in and essentially retrofitted into a built-in apartment wall desk setup that was intended for the large desktop towers of the late '90s. I’m ordering a second one in hopes it transforms another part of my weird floor plan. Bonus: The USB ports seem to fast charge my iPhone XS Max. I can go from dead to fully charged in about 90 minutes." —Moose
Get it from Amazon for $17.97.
4. A set of adjustable desk shelves made of natural wood for storing your books, pens, photos, and other office items + cute decor without taking up valuable work space.
The shelves come in two separate parts that can be arranged close together or spread further apart, depending on what you need!
Promising review: "I was running out of space for my books and this was a perfect fix!! Easy to use and fit perfectly on top of my bookshelf. Saw this on TikTok and would definitely recommend!" —Barbara Zurowski
Get them from Amazon for $25.99+ (available in six colors).
5. A cable cord-concealing box to finally address that ugly monster that is the power strip (and alllll the attached cords) underneath your desk. It'll give them a clean-looking home that's also out of reach of any nibbling cats or curious toddlers, with three entry/exit points for cables to pass through.
Check it out in this TikTok.
Promising review: "I bought it because I saw a woman on TikTok showcase something similar like this on her page (on how to keep a home tidy) and I was like I HAD to buy! It’s wonderful! I have ALWAYS hated seeing all the clutter of cords stick out from cord extenders and having this makes my small place look cleaner and organized! I would recommend this for anyone!" —Chidi
Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in two sizes and three colors).
6. And a charging station that'll be a one-stop shop for organizing your devices so they're not scattered all across your desk or cluttering a drawer. It has six USB charging ports (with overcharge protection) and six illuminated LED dividers that show you at a glance whether a device is still charging or all juiced up.
This doc comes with six cords for Apple devices, but is still compatible with other charger types. If you have Android devices, pick up a set of short USB-C cords. You can charge phones, tablets, smart watches, and even a Nintendo Switch in this thing.

Promising review: "This product is amazing!!! It is a definite must for every home. I have mine in my home office and it is available for guests to use when they come visit, also great for nights when my kids go to bed so do their electronics all together. Great product at a great cost." —Jessie Miller
Get it from Amazon for $20.
7. An Apple Pencil stand to hold your stylus at your desk when you're not using it (instead of you placing it down absentmindedly and then having to search for it for five minutes when it inevitably disappears). A weighted aluminum insert keeps it securely upright!
Check it out in this desk tour on TikTok! This stand can hold an Apple Pencil 1 or 2, without or without a grip/cover on it.
Promising review: "I can’t believe how much I use this. It’s so handy. I had to buy a new Apple Pencil because my old one kept rolling / falling off the desk and it stopped working. I pick it up and put it down SO many times a day, I was worried about the new one breaking from being clinked down on the desk so often. But now I have a nice safe, soft place for it to rest. It is genuinely one of my favorite things on my desk. Plus it matches my iPad cover and I love that." —Miranda
Get it from Amazon for $14.95 (available in six colors).
8. A colorful desk mat that's waterproof so your desk will be protected when you accidentally knock over your drink or spill some cereal while working (oops). It doubles as a mousepad *and* helps tie your entire aesthetic together if you have a color scheme!
You'll spot this one in the same TikTok as above!
Promising review: "The color is exactly as described and shown, a sweet little pink. It's got great desk coverage and I love it so much. I hate using a mouse pad and this works so perfect for my wireless mouse. The texture isn't weird so my arms resting on it isn't uncomfortable, and it wipes clean very easily. A great buy!" —Faline Keller
Get it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in 19 colors and four sizes).
9. An ultra-thin webcam blocker you can stick on your laptop's camera for quick, seamless privacy. You can slide it open when you have video calls, then immediately slide it shut when the camera's not in use so you can have peace of mind that no one's accessing your camera without your knowledge.
Check out this "office must-have" in this TikTok.
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! I read reviews how they’re not super sticky and are thin, but they are everything I wanted. 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
Get a three-pack from Amazon for $5.99+ (available in six color combos).
10. A USB-powered BenQ Screenbar Halo that provides cozy, dimmable lighting for your desk area, plus monitor backlighting that can help increase eye comfort when you're staring at your screen for hours. Its smart wireless controller lets you switch modes and adjust brightness and warmth with the touch of a button — no messy wires, bulky lamps, or screen glare.
Front and back lighting can be turned on separately *or* together, and the angle can be adjusted 35 degrees. It's also compatible with curved monitors! You can even set your preferred brightness and color temp as "My Favorite" on the controller for easy access.
Peep how neat this looks in a super cute desk setup on TikTok and see it in action!
Promising review: "This is an expensive lamp, hence why I put off buying it for a long time. But now that I've been using it, I'm sorry I didn't buy it sooner. No shadows from the overhead light or screen glare from desk lamps. It feels well made and the light control puck is heavy and well designed. There are cheaper clones out there, but given the number of complaints about the lesser units, I decided to go with the top of the line and I'm glad I did. One caveat: Plug it into a charging brick instead of the computer USB port and you'll avoid any chance of flicker." —J. Cruz
Get it from Amazon for $179.
Psst — For a cheaper alternative, BenQ's base screenbar goes for $109 — it has controls on the bar itself instead of the wireless controller.
11. A precious little mushroom lamp, which won't take up mush room on your desk or nightstand. It'll help you channel those cottagecore vibes while giving off the loveliest glow at night, with 16 colors and four brightness levels easily controlled with a remote.
Peep it in this adorable desk setup on TikTok.
Promising review: "Cute, cute, cute! This is one of the cutest night lights ever! Not only does it change colors; it can be controlled remotely and changed in a variety of colors and effects, from flashing to slowly fading from one color into another, or if desired, one constant color to match any decor. The brightness can also be adjusted. And the wood base gives it more than the look of a toy; it is perfectly classy." —roika
Get it from Amazon for $27.99.
12. And! A darling stool (a toadstool, if you will) that simply BELONGS in any cozy work space. It'd make the best footrest so you can stretch your legs out for comfort!
Check out an unboxing on TikTok!
Promising review: "I got this as a foot/leg rest underneath my desk and it's amazing as I constantly fidget in my seat, it's helpful to extend my legs and keep them elevated. Not to mention it's super cute, I love mushrooms! very happy with it and it delivered in perfect condition." —Nicole
Get it from Target for $100 (available in two colors).
13. A color-changing moon lamp that'll bring the dreamiest vibe to your setup. Using its companion app, you can customize the color of your lighting or choose from 21 preset options, and it also has color modes that are sound-reactive so your moon can vibe to "lofi beats to study/relax to" right along with you (if you know you know).
Check out an unboxing + how it works in this TikTok!
Promising review: "I bought this lamp after seeing it on TikTok. It looked really cool and thought it would be a nice edition to my bedroom! I actually expected to have some buyer's remorse but I couldn't have been more wrong! This lamp is so adorable and perfect for bedrooms of any age and would definitely go well with a kawaii gamer setup too. It has a multitude of color options; the gradient pastel rainbow is my favorite! It's controllable from your smartphone or touch, and it has a neat little feature where it changes color based on the sound it picks up! It's super affordable, especially compared to other smart lights like Phillips Hue." —Alice
Get it from Amazon for $35.95+ (available in four styles).
14. A compact under-desk electric treadmill made for the multi-tasking mavens who want to incorporate more movement into their sedentary WFH schedule. It has an LED display that shows basic metrics like time, speed, and distance; a quiet motor (so you can focus on the work in front of you); and Bluetooth capability so you could even play music or a podcast through it.
See it in action in this TikTok! Its speed range is 0.5–6mph and its weight capacity is 220 pounds.
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. I hope the company has a remote replacement for if/when the remote bites it. Even still, I would 100% buy this again. Great treadmill!" —Crowells
Get it from Amazon for $279.99+ (available in four colors).
15. A lighted makeup mirror if your desk doubles as a vanity — the pre-installed LED bulbs have adjustable brightness with cool and warm light settings so you can apply your makeup at your desk without hauling everything into the bathroom. It's also perfect for quick touch-ups in between Zoom meetings or virtual classes.
See why it's recommended as a "college dorm essential" on TikTok.
Promising review: "10 out of 10 recommend this mirror for your dorm. That’s what I use it for. I love the adjustments of the lighting; it has cool, warm, and regular lighting, and the brightness adjustment works for when you're studying, and you don’t want to bother your roommate." —Esmeralda Martinez
Get it from Amazon for $39.99+ (available in nine colors).
16. And a 13-piece set of drawer organizers with nonslip silicone pads so you can get all your makeup and/or office supplies in order — and get that little ~thrill~ that comes from witnessing your own organization genius every time you open your desk drawer.
Check 'em out in this desk organization TikTok.
Promising review: "This is a great set of organizers! I got these for my vanity/desk drawers because I was tired of all my products not fitting in one place and having to keep my makeup in different locations. I found myself not using products or losing them because they didn't all fit in my drawers. I like having all my products visible, and these organizers allow me to see everything I own and organize everything into categories. The containers come in different shapes/sizes so they fit a variety of products, and this also allows you to customize the containers to fit into your drawers. The material is sturdy and they're well made (not flimsy); my containers didn't arrive cracked or scratched. They also have rubber stoppers on the bottom and this helps them stay in place. This is a great space saver! I love how they make my drawers look, the clear containers look sleek and make everything look so neat." —Denise Garcia
Get them from Amazon for $23.99 (also available in a larger pack size).
17. A dreamy retro-inspired planner pad cute enough to keep out on your desk 24/7 and perfect for school, work, or your everyday busy life. Each planner has a slightly different format so you can find one that works best for your needs, letting you organize your to-dos, priorities, and more!
But seriously, these are the most adorable planners I've ever seen and are transporting me right back to the '90s.
Unicorn Eclipse is a small business owned by two sisters who make extremely cute stationery, planners, stickers, decor, and more! Get a closer look at some of their planner notepads on TikTok.
HuffPost Shopping writer Haley Zovickian says, "It would be an understatement to say that I'm obsessed with this shop. I am head over heels entranced with this shop. Their lo-fi, nostalgic style brightens up my workspace so much and really helps encourage me to stay organized – because I love looking at and using their stationery! I also just appreciate the sense of whimsy and fun that their products add to what can otherwise be stressful work days or daunting tasks; the graphics on their planner pads help me stay more positive, and more on top of my work in general. TL;DR: These are a ray of sunshine that any desk worker or organizing buff would be incomplete without."
Get them from Unicorn Eclipse on Etsy for $12 each, including the cottagecore and kawaii styles pictured above.
18. A 3D digital clock perfect for adding some ambient light to your home office or bedroom. It *might* even help you cut down on the number of times you pick up your phone to check the time — which inevitably ends with you going down another Tiktok rabbit hole (looking @ myself here).
Get a close-up look at it on TikTok.
Promising review: "This clock is so cute and sleek. It adds the perfect amount of flare to a desk, and doesn’t take up much space. Took a while to set up (since there were no instructions) but after messing with it for a while I got it to work the way I wanted it to." —Vanessa V.
Get it from Amazon for $17.99+ (available in seven styles).
19. Or a rotating digital clock packing a lot of functionality without taking up much space. It sports a sleek mirrored screen, a soothing wake-up alarm (and snooze button), two USB outlets for charging devices, *and* three brightness levels including an automatic night mode.
It's featured in this TikTok!
BTW, you can choose the 12- or 24-hour system for the clock display.
Promising review: "This was such a good find. I don’t use it as an alarm, but I did test it out and it works great. I got it for my desk at work. I plug my charger and desk fan into it using the USB ports. And I love that it’s a mirror. I get so many compliments about it and people are constantly asking where I got it." —Michelle Cienfuegos
Get it from Amazon for $24.59 (available in six colors).
20. A Govee neon rope light to incorporate super customizable lighting that doubles as unique wall decor. Its bendable design lets you twist it into all sorts of neat shapes, and by using an app, you can program it to all sorts of color combos and lighting effects! The cozy glow this gives at night is unmatched.
Several reviewers compare these to Hue LightStrips and say these are even better, especially for a fraction of the price! Get a closer look at these on TikTok — the reviewer shows how easy they are to put on the wall.
I'd been eyeing this rope light for ages and finally picked it up recently. It's everything I'd hoped it would be and more. First of all, it's SOOO easy to put on the wall — it comes with these little adhesive plastic brackets that you just slide onto the rope and then press against the wall, and continue adding them as needed to support the shape you're making. I stuck with a basic wave shape for mine as I have it mounted underneath a gallery shelf and wanted to keep it simple, but it wouldn't have been difficult to create a more elaborate design! The Govee app makes it so easy to program the lighting however I like, and it's upgraded my nighttime cozy vibes in a MAJOR way. I highly highly recommend if you're looking to improve your ambient lighting beyond just buying more lamps!
Get it from Amazon for $55.99+ (available in two lengths).
21. Plus, a sunset lamp that'll drench your office in rosy warm light, a lifesaver when you're working late (or it's winter) and it's dark outside. Not only is it a mood-booster, but it'll add to the ~ambience~ of your space so you don't dread being in one spot for 8+ hours.
The distance determines how wide and intense the light is — position it farther away for a softer diffused light, or closer up to focus the colorful beam on a specific spot. See a similar sunset lamp in action on TikTok!
I use both Govee LED strips and a sunset lamp similar to this one (the exact one I have is no longer available) in my WFH setup, which you can see on the right above. I have black walls so the effect is more subtle, but even so my sunset lamp helps light the area and instantly makes me feel more cozy, especially when I turn my LED light strips on at the same time. I highly recommend investing in office lighting like this that's not just your overhead lights! It really makes sitting there eight hours a day feel less painful.
Promising review: "Easy to use and set up. Originally we bought this lamp for the cold and dark winter months to give a nice sun glow in the office room — we loved the warm light so much we moved it into our living room and use it almost every day!" —Alex Harris
Get it from Amazon for $8.43+ (available in three styles).
22. Custom keycaps to incorporate literal art into your keyboard and give it the cutest pop of color that'll make you a little happier when you're on that WFH grind.
Check them out on TikTok. This Vietnam-based small biz went viral for its Pokemon keycaps, but they have a ton of other designs too!
Promising review: "Holy smokes, amazing work! The level of detail in this keycap is incredible, and knowing that it's fully custom makes it even better. I had to place a second order for more keycaps as soon as this one arrived!" —Kyle Dilger
Get custom keycaps from Hirosart on Etsy for $22.91+ (available in multiple quantities and for multiple buttons; character customization available).
23. A mini desktop vacuum if you're tired of crumbs, pencil shavings, paper scraps, and pet hair taking over your desk, because how are you supposed to focus when the entire area feels dirty? This sleek little gadget lets you pick up debris much easier than trying to sweep it off the desk into your hand (inevitably dropping some below) so you can take lunchtime meals at your desk guilt-free.
Get a closer look at it in this TikTok.
Promising reviews: "I'm obsessed with this little vacuum. I saw it on TikTok and immediately bought it for my living room coffee table, where I'm always spilling ashes and other things. Super easy to use and empty!" —Nicole Charland
"I live in an older apartment that drops a lot of dust, and I like to eat at my desk so this was a no-brainer. I was pleasantly surprised, however, at the quality and power of this product! It is a must-have for an office, desk, or even a counter." —Julian Askov
Get it from Amazon for $11.98+ (available in three colors and battery-powered or rechargeable).
24. A desktop whiteboard that fits in that lil' space between your monitor and keyboard for writing quick notes, ideas, or even motivational messages for yourself. A little pull-out drawer holds your dry-erase markers and other small accessories!
This whiteboard also comes with a single black dry-erase marker, accessory channel (to hold the marker), and a storage drawer. It's featured in this TikTok.
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
Get it from Amazon for $29.70+ (available in five styles). If you want to color-code your notes, you can grab a 15-pack of colorful dry-erase markers from Amazon for $7.99.
25. An electric mug warmer in case you, like me, get distracted while working and sip your morning coffee so slowly, it ends up going cold before you finish it. With this electric warmer, you can happily enjoy your hot, caffeinated drink for hours.
Reviewers suggest turning the heat down from high to medium once the drink gets down to about the halfway point so it stays a comfortable temperature!
Check it out on TikTok (where one reviewer even has the genius idea to use it as a candle warmer at their desk too)!
After seeing this coffee warmer all over BuzzFeed Shopping and even gifting my dad one for Christmas, I finally decided to buy one for myself. Based on all the reviews, I was pretty confident I'd soon be kicking myself for not getting it sooner, and that proved to be true: This thing not only looks good, but works great for keeping my coffee warm all day long (because yes, I'm one of those people that'll sip on coffee until 5 p.m., all right!!). I was kind of worried it'd be too small for some of my larger mugs, but the center plate is bigger than expected and accommodated every mug in my (very eclectic) collection perfectly. I can confirm that flat-bottomed mugs are the best option for using with this warmer as they do stay hotter, but it still keeps my concave-bottom mugs warm enough for my taste. Also, I looove how sleek the white version looks on my white desk, and the auto-shutoff function is a nice safety feature as an absent-minded person.
Get it from Amazon for $23.29+ (available in eight styles).
26. A modern-looking armless desk chair beloved for how comfortable it is, especially if you like to sit cross-legged, thanks to its lack of restricting armrests and a wider seat that accommodates your legs and knees. It allows you to recline up to 120 degrees and adjust the height, and the PU leather is waterproof and easy to clean, so you won't have to fret about about staining the white material with your messy lunch.
Check out an unboxing and review on TikTok.
Promising review: "This chair is unique because it has a large, wide seat that allows you to sit in different positions including cross-legged. It is also supremely comfortable with the quality of cushions. I'm 5'8 and I find it spacious with an appropriate amount of height adjustability for feet on the ground. So far great for all day office use!" —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $215.99+ (available with or without wheels).
27. A raining cloud essential oil diffuser made for anyone who loves the sound of rain. This diffuser is basically 2-in-1 relaxation, since you can add essential oils for aromatherapy *and* it makes a trickling sound like little raindrops — perfect for adding calming vibes to your office.
It features seven different colors for customizable mood lighting, three levels of brightness, and five water flow speeds. You can hear how the trickling water sounds in this reviewer video!
See it in action on TikTok!
Promising reviews: "TikTok made me buy it. This may be my favorite purchase yet. The rain sound is so relaxing and you can add in any oil to have any sound. It’s easy to use and has various light settings so you can dim it or turn it off if you prefer. I love it!" —Michele F
"I love this thing. I have anxiety and insomnia, and I need background noise to function/sleep. This little desktop fountain is SO SOOTHING, both aesthetically and the sound of the little raindrops. If I’m in the room with it, it’s probably on. If you love the sound of rain this is for you. Because I’m paranoid and I want this to last, I run it with plain distilled water and I have not used essential oils with it even though they say it’s fine. It’s very dry here right now, and I still only have to top up the water every few days even with it running daily. It’s a solid 12/10 from me." —Violet
Get it from Amazon for $56.80.
28. A pretty pastel expanding file folder for keeping all those papers scattered across your desk nice and organized without being an eyesore like those plain beige folders. It can hold between 150 and 200 sheets of paper!
See it on TikTok (and be prepared to want one in every color)!
Promising review: "This is such a great folder, whether you are preparing for a job interview, storing files at home, organizing your work or home office, or using it for classes. I love the color choices and the size. I can easily slip it into my tote bag and it keeps me organized and looks professional." —Pammie
Get it from Amazon for $8.58 (available in nine colors).
29. A cute Bluetooth speaker that'll remind you of the computer your family owned in the '90s. It features real, RGB-backlit buttons and a screen you can program to display the time, pixel art, and all sorts of animations. Sure, it can also play music and podcasts — all the usual Bluetooth speaker capabilities — but it's also just so dang cute, and a lot of people just use it as desk decor.
Check out an unboxing on TikTok! I've also seen this in the background of literally *dozens* of videos, like this one — which is why I ended up picking one up myself. If you're curious, you can read more on why I love mine here.
Promising review: "I actually impulsively purchased this because I saw it on Tiktok. I have had it for a little over a month now, and it is actually the best item I have purchased in a while. I admit, there is a slight learning curve when setting it up because there is not a clear-cut instructions guide for all of the features, but once you figure it out, it’s so worth it. It is really multifunctional and you can customize it to your liking. I really love the mini games featured on here, like Tetris and Snake, because they all bring back childhood memories for me. My favorite part is the fact that it works as a speaker and when I play music, I can have little videos sync to the music. Who knew a tiny little speaker could bring me so much joy. It is a bit pricy though, but it is just so cute. If you’re looking for a sign to buy this, here’s your sign." —Khuyen Nguyen
Get it from Amazon for $84.91 (available in five colors).
30. Aaand speaking of the '90s: A stunning Pokémon terrarium so you can relive your childhood days of catching 'em all. It'd look awesome in a retro-inspired gaming desk setup since it lights up too!
Lxjery is a small biz that's one of the top stores selling Pokémon terrariums on Etsy, but there are a lot of other stores out there selling them nowadays, if you're looking for a specific Pokémon.
Psst — You can spot a very similar Pokémon terrarium (and the same Bluetooth speaker as above!) in this TikTok. I see them in setups all the time!
Promising review: "One of the best gifts you can think of for Pokémon lovers! Had the best reaction and it's so pretty to have! Real eye-catcher for your desk!" —Leezle
Get the Eevee terrarium from Lxjery on Etsy for $65.88+ (available with or without light), and check out their store for more options.
31. A slim laptop stand to ~elevate~ your setup by bringing your laptop up to eye level, freeing up space on your desk beneath for storing textbooks, papers, a keyboard, or other items. It also helps keep your laptop cool with an open-back design for proper airflow (so it doesn't start sounding like a jet engine when you're running multiple apps at once), and silicone pads on the bottom protect your desk while preventing sliding.
This stand fits any laptop from 10 to 15.6 inches and can be easily disassembled into three parts for easy transportation.
Check it out on TikTok.
Promising review: "This has helped my neck pain and workflow. I'm used to working in an office with monitors and this made a big difference in my work from home experience by putting my screen at a comfortable eye level. The material is good quality, feels sturdy, and was simple to assemble. It comes in three pieces and is intuitive to put together without looking at directions. There are pads on the top to keep your laptop from sliding. I'm using it with a 15-inch laptop and it's a good fit. I did get a wireless keyboard to use with it, which I would recommend. If you were to try to type on your laptop keyboard with this, it would be uncomfortable. I bought it for the ergonomics, but as a bonus, I am liking how it helps me keep my desk organized with the extra space beneath. Great product!" —M

Spot it in this TikTok! Of course, you can use it as a phone stand too.
Promising review: "I got this for my iPad. It is compact enough to sit on my desk without wasting space but large enough to hold the iPad securely. I love the tilt feature and the fact that it holds the iPad vertically and horizontally. I have a case with a lid and bumpers around the edge, but it fits perfectly." —Glory Stafford

Promising review: "I just moved into a house with a boring view of the side of the neighbor's garage from my home office, and I spend WAY too much time in my office. This stuff makes a rainbow migrate throughout the day from the floor to the wall and makes my long work day a lot more tolerable! It also blocks my boring view of the neighbor's garage and their view in my window. It looks cool at night too." —Ariel Dutton
