In this desk setup video, I’m breaking down 5 beautiful desk accessories that are actually worth the money—because they bring both form and function to your setup. I was specifically looking for new and novel pieces that I don’t really see people talk about in typical desk setup videos, and I’ll give each item a form + function rating so you can decide if it belongs in your space. I start with the Lymax lightbar, which I love for its metal/aluminum build and the wireless touchscreen puck that lets me adjust warm/cool lighting, brightness, and even auto-adjust to the room. Then I go into a black-and-wood trash can that keeps my setup clean and clutter-free, plus my current everyday earbuds—the Status Between 3ANC—which I use for the gym, calls, meetings, and music. To round it out, I show a wood tea shelf for extra aesthetic storage (cheap material, but it gets the job done), and a valet tray that’s basically the “drop zone” for my phone, wallet, and small items—amazing function, but with a couple annoying production issues. If you’re optimizing for a productive, enjoyable desk setup, these are strong picks with real tradeoffs.
