I know (pertaining to myself), that my productivity level highly depends on the environment I surround myself in.
Which means, I work best in a clean and well-organized space, and I am sure I am not alone.
Whether you are working from home or participating in virtual school, you are probably going to be spending quite some time at your desk, and don’t you want a clean space to work?
I know I do, which is why I have compiled the ultimate list of organizational products for your desk that will help you to optimize your workspace and stay as productive as possible.
Disclaimer: I am aware that the first couple of products I list do not necessarily help you to better organize your space.
That being said, I also wanted to include some essentials I use to keep my environment as comfortable as possible, which promotes a more productive mindset. 🙂
Desk Lamp
My mom, being the overprotective parent that she is, is constantly reminding me how important it is to have a good source of light when reading, writing, or even working in general.
And I cannot disagree with her on that one.
That said, I also don’t enjoy a blaring light late at night when I am trying to study or finish homework, which is why I love this not-so-ordinary desk lamp!
From its LED lighting and seven color temperatures to its clean and simple look, this desk lamp has it all.
Whether you stay up late studying for tests and exams (like me) or just prefer an extra source of light in your study space, this lamp will more than do the trick!
Desk Mat
Unfortunately, I cannot say that spilling on my desk is uncommon. But luckily, with a desk mat that doesn’t seem to be a problem anymore.
Desk mats are the perfect desk-protector. If you spill or scratch them, it’s no problem. They are easily cleanable and replaceable.
But, I have found more than one use for this mat.
Recently, I have been wanting to jazz-up my study space, so I made a small college under my clear desk mat.
It was incredibly easy.
All I did was pick inspirational prints and cute photos of my friends and family, played around with the layout, then placed the mat on top of it all. Which keeps the decor in place.
Desk Chair
I know, desk chairs are basic, but finding the right one may be harder than you think. And I know from experience.
After searching for countless hours to find a desk chair that was (somewhat) affordable, comfortable, and simple but stylish, I finally came across the perfect match that met all of my needs, and I love it.
I would definitely recommend this piece, especially if you spend extended periods of time at your desk like I do.
Rolling Storage Cart
I was surprised by how much this cart can store and how helpful it truly is.
Whether you choose to put it beside your desk or keep it tucked away in your closet, I can’t even explain to you how useful this storage cart is.
I am constantly using it to store my school and art supplies (very spacious) and whenever I need it, I just roll it to the space I am working in.
Drawer Organizers
I feel like people underestimate the power of drawer organizers. They are one of the best and simplest ways to elevate your organization game.
With my surplus of school supplies and the basic desk necessities, drawer organizers come in clutch all the time.
There is not a single drawer in my room where you will not find these drawer organizers.
They are also incredibly affordable, which I am sure no one minds, including myself. 😉
Small Drawers
I was pleasantly surprised by how useful these small drawers turned out to be.
I keep them on top of my desk and store whatever small items I feel need to be easily accessible.
From chapsticks and mints to phone cases and device chargers, these drawers are never not being occupied.
Hanging Boards
This is probably my favorite part of my desk area.
Because I am a very visual person, having hanging boards above my desk with fun family photos, inspirational quotes, and monthly calendars help me to not only stay organized but feel happy and excited about my space.
Ultimately, you can use these boards to display anything!
Whatever makes you happy and/or organizes your space.
Noise Canceling Headphones
This last essential of mine is more of a study-enhancing product.
I have a feeling I am not the only one who gets distracted by the largest and/or smallest noises.
Therefore, noise-canceling headphones are a life-saver.
They allow for a more pleasant work environment while still admitting your favorite toons (which is completely optional).
Well, that concludes today’s post!
I hope you found at least some of these study and desk essentials helpful in your journey to find an organized and productivity-promoting environment.
