25 Best Desk Accessories That'll Make All Your Colleagues Jealous

Justina Blakeney, the designer behind Jungalow, is a pro at injecting fun into any space, and this playful peace sign vase is a prime example. The ceramic design comes in over 10 vibrant colors to add a little personality to your desk. I'm also losing it over the current sale price—run, don't walk.

No desk accessory roundup is complete without a modern take on a mouse pad. Say goodbye to those ugly pads with no personality or special features—this one's a hit on Amazon for a reason: it's stylish (obviously!) and features a gel wristrest to help avoid carpal tunnel syndrome.

I've been obsessed with Expedition Subsahara since I saw the brand's founder, Sofi Seck, crush it on Shark Tank. Their products are handmade using techniques passed down through the generations, and this cutie storage basket is no exception. Made in Senegal and hand-woven using elephant grass and recycled plastic, it brings a burst of color, texture, and oh-so-necessary storage space to my desk.

This stylish nesting set comes with three trays in total—and trust me, they're versatile as hell. You can stack them neatly together or use them separately, it's totally up to you. Right now, I've got one tray organizing my perfumes, one containing my pens, and the teeny one holding my AirPods. They make me feel so much less cluttered, and I can't thank them enough for that.

I'm always amazed by how some of the smartest desk accessories are the cheapest. This rotating organizer is a fabulous example. Inside the chic ribbed container are five separate compartments to stash small essentials. The best part? It rotates, so you can easily access whatever you need without having to dig around. Bonus tip: It's just as handy for organizing beauty products, so you might want to snag a second one for your bathroom or vanity.

TikTok seemed to be working overtime to persuade me to buy aesthetically pleasing highlighters, and I'll admit I wasn't sold at first. But the truth is, these babies from Papier are freaking adorable, and you probably need them too. Sorry, not sorry. The two-toned packaging is a work of art, and the quality of the ink is just as impressive.

My desk was a chaotic mess throughout my first adult job. I didn't have anywhere to store my stuff, and it was obvious. Meanwhile, my boss had a seriously envy-inducing setup, complete with a couple of chic organizers just like the one you see here. It's ideal for keeping all your documents in place, and there's even a drawer for stashing all those little knick-knacks you don't want cluttering up your desk, like pens, Post-its, lip balms, and more. It also comes in five colors!

I'll be bold here and say if you take one product away from this article, let it be this luxe hand cream from Soft Services. It (clearly) doubles as a stylish decor piece, making it the perfect addition to your desk. The best part is that it's refillable, so the gorgeous packaging never has to go to waste.

Remember that with-it boss I mentioned a couple of slides back? Surprise, surprise: she also owned this acrylic tape dispenser that put mine to damn shame. Tbh I can't remember the last time I taped something, so it makes zero sense for me to own it. But! If that's a regular part of your work routine and you value aesthetics, you have every reason and more to purchase this.

Like hundreds of other Amazon buyers, I depend on this simple yet effective daily list to wrangle my overactive mind and ensure I don't get fired—while keeping it fun! It has plenty of space for word-vomiting everything you need to do, along with a special spot to list your top three daily priorities to help keep you in check. Plus, it comes in a variety of colors, so you can match all your other desk accessories.

If you prefer to have all your project deadlines for the week laid out in one place, this color-coded weekly desk pad might be more your style. Or, if you're all about maximizing visibility, why not use one for daily tasks and this one for weekly ones!?

These days, I'm all about minimizing chaos, right down to the smallest details...like where I leave my headphones. That's why I'm in love with this headphone stand, and I don't care who knows it! With its nearly perfect five-star rating and hundreds of glowing reviews on Amazon, I know I'm not alone in my passion.

I can't think of a single reason why you wouldn't want these adorable sticky notes. They just scream, "Let's stop taking ourselves so goddamn seriously and start having more fun!!" It is painfully difficult to choose between the strawberry and the lemon shape, but honestly? I not-so-secretly hope Rifle Paper Co. releases an entire garden of options to make the choice even more challenging in the future.

Chances are you've already caught wind of this adorable desktop vacuum cleaner on TikTok. And let me tell you, it absolutely lives up to the hype. I've never quite mastered the art of eating without leaving a trail of crumbs (especially over my keyboard, because work-life balance isn't my strong suit), but this little sucker swoops in and chomps them up like they were never there. It's so compact that I can easily stash it away in a drawer when I'm done, and I no longer have to run to grab cleaning supplies to wipe down my desk after a snack. It's genius.

Before I dive into a new project on my to-do list, I treat myself to a TikTok break or two, because, let's face it, I'm chronically online. This sleek cell phone stand literally and figuratively elevates my social media obsession. It falls into the same category as the aforementioned headphone stand—just a tad extra, but such a game-changer.

As someone who often writes about beauty, I've got too many lipsticks, lip balms, lip liners, and the like to count. Despite my best efforts, loose lippies always seem to pop up everywhere. And—surprise, surprise—they've made their way onto my desk. So, when one of my favorite influencers posted a photo of this trinket organizer on Instagram, I snapped one up in record time. First off, it's beyond cute. Second, it provides a much-needed spot for my lip products to chill before they mysteriously vanish into the abyss again.

I'm reluctant to admit that I've tested out nearly every essential oil diffuser on the market. My collection is definitely more extensive than any sane person's should be. But the upside is that I've gained some valuable insights to share with anyone who'll listen. (Hi!) So, here's the scoop on this mini diffuser from Neom that I'm obsessed with: it's ridiculously simple to use and doesn't even need water, unlike many others I've tried. Plus, the compact size and cordless design mean you can easily take it from your desk to your bedside for a soothing night's sleep.

At last, a solution for showcasing the hundreds of Polaroid photos you've collected over the years and shamelessly hoarded. It's no wonder this item is one of Urban Outfitters' top-selling desk accessories. It gives you the best of both worlds: a designated home for all your pens, pencils, and other writing tools, along with a way to give your office a personalized touch.
