Core Setup
Basics I use in addition to my work laptop in order to be able to work efficiently.
24-inch monitor that I use as my second screen at home. Not too big, not too small.
HP 24mh 23.8-Inch FHD IPS Monitor
This keeps my Mac laptop at a comfortable eye level to eliminate neck strain. Love the clear glass for a sleek, minimal look.
Hemudu Clear Glass Computer Monitor Riser
Just switched to this mouse a few months ago and find it comfortable. It has three Bluetooth settings, so I do not have to switch between two different mice when using my work and personal laptops at home.
Logitech POP Mouse (Wireless, Bluetooth)
I don't have a standing desk yet, but I still have a walking pad in my office. This allows me to get in some steps when taking a quick 15-minute break or if my stress level is high. Rolls easily for storage, if needed.
DeerRun Smart Under Desk Walking Pad
Comfort + Aesthetic
This mat looks nice and also protects from coffee spills (ask me how I know 🙃). Comes in lots of color options!
Aothia Leather Desk Pad Protector (Light Blue))
I get hot very easily! This fan is quiet, modern, and small enough to sit on my desk without taking over.
KONSIDEN 11.8 Inch Bladeless Desk Fan
This clips right onto my desk, so it doesn’t take up any desktop space, and it's a must-have since I don’t sit near a window. The flexible neck lets me position it exactly where I need it, and the brightness and temperature settings are adjustable.
LED Desk Lamp with Clamp, Black, Dimmable
Small, cute, and inspirational desk addition. I flip to a new card when I need a reset or postivie motivation.
Motto of the Day Card Set by Compendium
Someone gifted me the 2025 set, and it's so pretty! I love having a month at a glance on my desk.

Cleaning
For keeping your desk and screen clean!
I use this to keep my screens smudge-free. I have one in my desk drawer and one in my laptop bag.
CLICK CLEAN Screen Cleaner, Fingerprint Proof ...
A hidden gem! I hate to admit it, but I do snack at my desk often. I use this to pickup crumbs and dust.
ODISTAR Desktop Vacuum Cleaner (Mini, Black)
Cord + Cable Control
Super easy to install, and keeps all my cords and surge protector off the floor. Makes things looks so much cleaner!
Under Desk Cable Management Tray - Cinati
I use these along the back of my desk to keep the monitor cord in place. They are also on the baseboards around my husband's desk to keep his cords manageable.
