New year, new home office supplies!  I love nothing more than a fresh clean desk and workspace. Since I work from home, it’s important for me to have a clean and uncluttered workspace, and stylish desktop accessories to make the work day more fun.

These are my top 10 home office desktop essentials for a productive and stylish work day:

  1. Water: Keeping hydrated throughout the day is a must. I always keep a water jug within reach.
  2. Coffee: I can’t start my day without my cup o jo. I love my yeti tumbler as it keeps my coffee piping hot for hours and it’s pink!
  3. A fresh notepad – Call me old school, but I still love using a notepad to write down my to-do list and tasks for the day. I get satisfaction by marking off each task with a big checkmark!  Since I’m a lefty, I like using the spiral top bound notepads. Cambridge makes nice classic ones.
  4. A cute pen for writing down all those goals and checking off items on your list. Mara Mi makes some really cute and stylish pens.
  5. A pencil cup holder
  6. A beautiful lamp that doubles as an art object on your desk
  7. A planner – I love the Day Designer by Whitney English.
  8. A mousepad in a fun color or design
  9. A business card holder and/or pouch for stashing quick supplies like pens, your phone, a charger, post-it notes, and other small personal items for when you’re on the go or out and about in meetings. I just got this  Pouch pictured below from Mara Mi and it comes with a matching card holder. I’ve used them both every day!
  10. Something living such as a small plant or fresh flowers to add the finishing touch and they make you happy!
