There’s no escaping it: we spend a hell of a lot of time working. Yet while many of us enjoy sprucing up our homes, our desks often remain unloved.
Adding a few personal accessories here and there can not only bring some joy to your workstation, but help to keep you organised.
To help get you started, here are seven items we’re loving on Etsy right now.
