Promising review: “So, I just transitioned to work from home and wanted a cool keyboard for my new workspace. I tried two others, and they worked but I wasn’t 100% happy with the style, shape, nor color. A friend showed me her keyboard, and I fell in love with it. Hers was the pink/colorful option. I immediately went on Amazon and found the purple/lilac color and ordered. I received it today, and I’m so pleased. I love hearing the click-clack sound of keys being hit with my nails, and the weight of the keyboard is nice and heavy — it feels well made. I’m still getting used to the mouse (it’s a wider shape then I’m used to) but it works and matches my keyboard. Now if only I could find a purple monitor, LOL. I highly recommend this keyboard. Happy typing!” —Kimberly Renee

It has a nice feeling, is very flexible, and fits like a glove on my MacBook Air. It doesn’t come off even when I’m moving my laptop around a lot (which I do since I do a lot of work on the sofa or the bed, where I end up in weird positions to be comfortable). I can feel each key individually when I hit them, which is really nice. I also type a lot due to work and school, as well as simply writing in my free time, and this cover has held up the entire time. I haven’t seen any signs of wear or fading in the six months I’ve had it. This is a very durable keyboard — I eat with my laptop all the time, and I’ve actually spilled coffee on my keyboard once, and nothing happened — it actually kind of kept the liquid there until I could clean it off. I would definitely buy this again if I needed another color.” —Sadia Rahman

27. A USB-wired strawberry mouse because maybe this treat-shaped mouse will inspire you to sign off emails with ~sweet~ pleasantries instead of your usual cold “regards.”Amazon

Promising review: “I use this for my work laptop. I mostly bought it to be cute and kind of as a joke, and especially considering the price, I wasn’t expecting greatness. I’ve had it for a few months now, and I’ve been pretty impressed; it works surprisingly well and glows when you move it! If you have smaller hands, it’s actually kind of the perfect shape, lol. Definitely use it with a mousepad so the bottom doesn’t get banged up over time and for smooth mouse movement. Wish there were more designs like this one. I’d definitely buy more!” —Shannon Farkas

Promising review: “No one is buying this tape dispenser for any purpose other than to look cute on a desk. It definitely does that. It’s adorable. Just look at that happy, furry otter face. As a bonus, it also holds tape, which is useful in various situations. It’s also very sturdy and isn’t likely to go flying when you forcefully grab a piece of tape from it (if you’re an aggressive gift wrapper, by chance). This otter tape dispenser is one of the few novelty items that actually does what it’s supposed to do. Two paws up.” —Bargler

31. An arcane-inspired wireless phone charger because taking your phone from 0% to 100% super quickly is the best kind of magic there is.

This charger works with iPhone 11 and newer and Samsung Galaxy S8 and newer.

Promising review: “Product works great, looks cool, and gives my nightstand a bit of magical flair without being so ostentatious that it keeps me up at night, unlike some other magic circle chargers. As far as I know, the runes mean nothing; the only word I can make out along the outer circle is futharc, which is the name of the Norse rune alphabet and is comprised of the first six letters of said alphabet. Most likely, the rest of the letters are merely the rest of the alphabet in sequence, the literal rune equivalent of ‘ABCDEFG’, and so on. Overall, a good find. I am satisfied.” —Kevin

Get it from Amazon for $13.49.

33. A super realistic skillet cookie candle that smells the way it looks! Fill your WFH space with the yummy scents of chocolate and marshmallow. If traditional candles just aren’t your style, you might just fall in love with this one.
