Craighill Desk Accessories


Mat has a new desk. It looks pretty ace and has given me a certain amount of desk envy, what with my fairly bog standard Ikea cheapest desk offering. So, it's time to think about tarting up the old workspace and - in particular - find some things to tidy the place up and give it a more professional feel.

With that in mind, these desk accessories from Craighill caught my eye this week. Perhaps a little pricey for something that's just going to hold my keys and spare change, but boy would they help make that mess look good.

With a shiny new desk in transit (designed by Dan Marc) I'm already starting to make a list of what I want to sit on it. The essentials: laptop, notepad, diary, lamp. The 'those'll look decent": vase, framed print, book. And the extra: Mini Homer Simpson, rubber band ball, Bearbricks, calculator, beer bottles...

But what about all the little bits and bobs? The stuff that just rolls around, but when you actually need it you can't bleeding find it anywhere. A wire desk tidy seem a little old hat, and as my desk has been so thoughtfully designed it only makes sense to treat it well, and give it some good neighbours.

Most Modest do some really lovely looking desk accessories, including; an ash storage vessels, a simple desk organiser, multi-purpose device bar (with built-in charging cable), cork coasters, and cable tidies. All USA-made, and ready to make your desk fresh for the new year.

Available at Huckberry.

Found these really nice looking scissors over at Choosing Keeping's online store, they're a a small arts and crafts supply company with a physical shop in East London. I've only just became aware of their store a within the last couple of weeks when Yasumi of Workship Blues posted about how nice their shop was, she wasn't fibbing. Choosing Keeping sets itself apart from being just a regular art shop by taking a special interest in the history and functionality of each product they stock, as well as educating us about several individual manufacturers.

Choosing Keeping stock tons of stuff that I'd love to own (especially the staplers), from stationery and gifts to books and records. I've tried to keep this post to just one subject, because if not you'd be scrolling down the blog for about an hour. Choosing Keeping, 128 Columbia Road, London, E2 7RG
