4 Office Accessories From Amazon + An Office Tour
I’m a firm believer in having an office that's as aesthetically pleasing as it is efficient, so today I’m sharing my favorite office and desk accessories with you. They’re all centered around efficiency and beauty. While many of the things listed are investment pieces that I’ve slowly accrued, they have really helped to perfect my set-up!

So let’s dive in! These are my four favorite desk accessories that have perfected my tiny office set-up!
Being a slow coffee drinker, I’ve really fallen in love with my Ember mug which keeps my coffee warm until I’m finished with it. This was actually a gift that I probably wouldn’t have ever purchased for myself, but my goodness do I love it so. I switch back and forth between this and my ceramic mugs (because sometimes a girl just needs to switch it up), but this mug, more often than not, makes it way to my desk every morning.
Last year I made a big switch in my set-up, transitioning from a 13 inch laptop, which I worked off of for years to a Mac mini with a display. My laptop was having some issues, and the Mac mini was an affordable shift towards a more powerful machine. While I thought I would miss the flexibility of not being able to work in different places around the house or in coffee shops, I’ve found I really love working at a desk. It helps me maintain a sense of work-life balance.
While the Mac mini is great - all of the ports are in the back of it, so this Satechi hub is super convenient for me. It’s much easier to hook up my hard drives and plug in SD cards, and it also has a compartment understand to install a hard drive, so I can work with a little bit more space on my computer. It’s a tiny hardware adjustment that has made my workflow so much better, and dang it if she isn’t just so pretty.
#3 - My Minimal Monitor Stand
I got this little monitor stand off Amazon, and I love how it fits the vibe of my office, being super minimal and pretty. It was probably my best office investment (at a whopping $40) last year. Not only does it allow my monitor to set at a more comfortable height, but creates a nice little space underneath my monitor where I can tuck hard drives and odds and ends if needed.
Putting my monitor and computer on this stand also ensures that if I spill coffee (a somewhat regular occurrence), it doesn’t get on the precious electronics. :D
#4 - My Sony Noise Cancelling Headphones
My Sony noise-cancelling headphones are always at the ready, which is super helpful in a house with a noisy family, and also for when I just need to really focus. Since my husband and I share an office, and we both like listening to music, these headphones are super helpful to cancel out noise, get into a flow, and get stuff done!
So there you have it! Those are my favorite office accessories which help me keep things running efficiently, happily, and… well.. prettily! If you’d like a full tour of my tiny office space, I’m sharing it over on YouTube!
Meanwhile, I’d love to know which accessories in your office are game-changers and help you with productivity and aesthetics!
