Writing Utensils
I love Legami erasable ink pens, and this was the first one I bought. I use it for paper edits!
Legami Dino Erasable Gel Pen - Green Ink
I love Legami erasable ink pens, and this red ink one is particularly effective for paper edits. Also, ladybugs rock! They're the sentinels of my garden.
Legami Erasable Gel Pen - Ladybug - Red Ink
Though I bought this Legami erasable ink pen from Barnes and Noble, it's not available online right now, so this is a good alternative that comes with ink refills, if you really like black ink.
Legami - Erasable Gel Pen, Ball on the End to Remove Ink without Consuming the Paper - Black Thermal Sensitive Ink, Tip Diameter 0.7 mm - Cats Theme
This is the first Writech pen I ever bought. It writes so smoothly and the pastel shade goes well with the rest of my cute desk set up.
Writech Gel Pen Peach, Black ink 0.5mm Needle Tip
This is a great highlighter and pen set for note while reading. I'm partial to green so this one is my go to!
Writech Vibrant Forest Mixed Pen Kit S/7 - Assorted Ink
I love the Sakura Jelly Roll pens! They write so smoothly and the glitter effect is insanely satisfying. I sometimes use these for paper edits but they're also great for artwork (I've used these in coloring books too.)
Sakura Gelly Roll Silver Shadow Pack
I have the purple and red jellyroll glitter gel pens from this pack, and they write so smoothly. If you're a fan of color coded notes or want to add a little sparkle to your paper edits, I would highly recommend this pack! I bought my Jellyroll pens ...
SAKURA Gelly Roll Metallic Gel Pens, 10-Pack
This pen writes so smoothly and pairs well with grid-lined notebooks. With such a fine tip, it is best used for fine detail in artworks or when taking intentionally miniature notes. I first found these pens when strolling through a craft fair and one...
RETON 12Pcs Ballpoint Pen Set, 0.35 mm Black Gel Ink Pen Extra-Fine Ballpoint Pen Writing Pens for Office Stationery Supply
Paper Items
This is a beautiful journal or note-taking book for when you're on the go.
Kara-ori Ultra Lined Hardcover Journal, 144pg, 120GSM by Paperblanks (Japanese Kimono)
This is another great note-taking option. The graph-paper interior is particularly nice if you plan to use this for tables or other neatly structured notes. The small grid confines my writing, allowing me to squeeze more notes onto one page.
Hobonichi Techo Accessories Hobonichi Plain Notebook (A5) - Yamazakura
I use mini binder clips to hold my many writing drafts together. Since I have my printed drafts piled high in my office, I like to use pretty ones to add a bit of fun to my work space.
Mini Binder Clips, 15mm
These are the binder clips that I am currently using. They hold anywhere from twenty to forty pages quite comfortably. I love the pop of color in my office!
120 Pack Mini Binder Clips, Colorful Binder Clips Bulk 0.59 inch
I love using sticky notes with fun designs (and I love ‘My Neighbor Totoro!’). They are highly versatile; I use them in my planner, as bookmarks, and when I'm making paper edits to the various drafts of my book.
My Neighbor Totoro Sticky Note Set (Forest)
I love using sticky notes with fun designs (and corgis are the cutest!). They are highly versatile; I use them in my planner, as bookmarks, and when I'm making paper edits to the various drafts of my book.
Mindwave Sticky Notes - Corgi
This is a great set of mini notebooks for nature lovers on the go. I like the textured cover and gold foil accents in addition to the colorful critters. I have a similarly designed poster hanging on the wall of my office.
Rifle Paper Co. Curio Notebooks set of 3
These cards are such nice quality! The paper is thick, and the golden embossed image is slightly raised. This is a nice and understated luxe option for little (and versatile) notes. I have this one and a golden apple set that isn't available anymore.
Gummy Bear La Petite Presse 10 Embossed Cards
This is the planner that I've been using for the last three years. It's both cost effective and stylish without any unnecessary add ons. While I do use the calendar on my computer, I like keeping track of day-to-goals and milestones in this planner. ...
WORLD TRAVELER Academic Planner
Electronics
This helps structure the time at my desk. I am simultaneously easily distracted and hyper-focused depending on the task at hand. There are some other free online options too but this is my favorite anywhere help with time management.
Digital Timer, AMIR Gravity Sensor Flip Timer Rechargable Volume Adjustable Rotation Countdown Timer for Kicthen School Office Kids Study Cooking Fitness Yoga
I love this keypad cover; I've on my third one. It's cost effective and durable enough to last over a year despite all the wear and tear I subject it to.
Cute Silicone Keyboard Cover for 2020-23 MacBook Pro 13"
I've had this AirPod case for about a year now, and it's still going strong. As someone whose favorite color is green and someone who's got a thing for frogs and cute monsters, this was a must to protect my AirPods. I attached a stretchy cord to the ...
OAJ Funny Protective Case for AirPods 5/4 Green
Novelty items that bring me joy
These are the cutest little desk buddies. Whether you like succulents or just want to bring some green into your office, these are a great option.
Succulent Friends Blind Box
I love Crazy Aaron's thinking putty and have 2 tins in my office. They're great for idle hands and generally figety desk workers. I often play with the putty when watching or reading something.
Crazy Aaron's Rainbow Reveal Thinking Putty
I love this thinking putting. It's so smooth and the color is delightful. It's a great option for others that tend to fidget behind a desk lol!
Crazy Aaron's Super Illusions Super Scarab Thinking Putty
This is one of the first full-sized thinking putty tins I bought. I love the ones that change color. I gave it away to a friend, but it's still a fantastic option.
Crazy Aaron's Intergalactic Thinking Putty
I have 2 of these in my office - one with a pink chair and one with a yellow chair. They bring me such joy. One guards my desk, and the other guards my bookshelf. They're not at all practical, but that's not the point.
Frog in Chair Figurine (Yellow Coffee)
I have a bad habit of collecting picture frames that I think “have potential.” This is a unique frame that could pair well with other frames of similar or complementary material - like wood or fabric - and the color palette is perfect for both fall a...
