Desk Essentials

Your workspace reflects your passion, comfort and creativity. Whether you use your desk for storage, decoration, or work, it is important for it to be more than just a metal desk in a corner. You most likely spend hours sitting at your desk so make sure that you are happy with your workspace. Below, we shared how some of ours look so you can be inspired to reimagine your desk at home.

1. Have a zen corner! A plant, plus a candle and a diffuser will allow you to feel calm and ready to work at your desk. This is a great way to accessorize a desk corner.

2. Organization is key. It is most important to know what is happening in all aspects of life and having structure and your desk can help you with that. We bought these clay pieces from HomeGoods. We always have pens and our weekly planner ready to go!

3. Have planners and to-do lists! The best way to stay organized is writing things down. Soon your head will feel clear and you can sit down at your desk and know exactly what to do next.

4. Candles make us feel very calm while we work on intense projects. It also helps boost your desk aesthetic.. We bought these candles from Anthropologie, HomeGoods and Target.

5. Stay organized with this set of gold paper clips and pins. You can buy these at Target and HomeGoods - it is helpful to have them handy.

6. Stock up the desk of your drawer with the necessity items for classes. In my drawer, I have a ruler, scissors, stapler, and calculator.

7. Have folder boxes on your desk. These are from Staples and come in many colors. It is a great way to organize your books and papers instead of having a pile and clutter. These file holders come in many colors to match your room's aesthetic.
