Imagine you're in the perfect work-from-home office. You've got the ergonomic, or possibly, gaming chair. You splurged on the luxury mousepad and bought a footrest. You can kick back, type, and grab a snack from your under-desk mini-fridge. That's the life. If this is your dream but currently your home office is only a boring mini-prison, stay tuned.

But the ultimate goal of desk accessories is to help organize the space so that you can work diligently. Here are 24 desk accessories that are either practical, comfortable, or fun.
