Friday is Top 10 day. So if you’re working late (like I am) and spend most of the day in your office (which we all do), you need to improve your work environment so that it gives you all the comfort and relaxation you need in order to be efficient and creative. Here’s a fine selection of gizmos, gadgets and other things that can make our office a place we love to be in.
1. Decorative Sticky Tape – not your usual cute, cuddly, colorful decorative scotch tape, but certainly pretty and quite fancy I might add. It’ll add a personal touch to your envelopes, gifts and other wrap needing stuff.

2. Paper Pencils – a set of fancy,
environment friendly pencils to go with your desk and your eco-friendly attitude. Made from 100% recycled paper. Cool? Very!

3. Wave of Light Dolphin - there’s nothing like having a soothing, relaxing object on your desk so that you can turn your eyes to it whenever they feel sore or when you feel like your head is about to pop. This little lamp combines lights, sound and movement and they say it can kind of hypnotize you. It even moves like the ocean’s waves. Do you love it or do you love it?

4. Suck UK Door stop - I hate people who slam the door open or closed when they come
into or leave a room. The sound is annoying and it can scare you if you’re really focused on something. So I have a solution for you! These door stoppers will not only stop doors, but maybe also prevent anyone from entering, since they are pretty cool and exclamatory.

5. Ceramic Swear Bank - we all hate meetings and most of us come out swearing. So this got me thinking and I came up with an idea to get you rich: you can make you office a swear are and cash in for every curse word that your colleagues utter.

6. Grass Charging Station – this will add a very nice touch to your desk and it’ll help you
keep all your gadgets charged and ready to go at any time. Don’t worry, it works with any small device with a charging cable and it has a special compartment for hiding all the wiring.

7. Explosion Notepads – if you’re trying to make a statement and your coworkers just won’t get it, because punctuation is not particularly relevant to them, try these instead. If it still doesn’t work, try shouting. :))

8. Another possibly annoying thing about your colleagues (and maybe even about your
boss) is that they always ask to borrow a pen and they always forget to return it. It’s like an unwritten rule of the office. The worst part is that they usually take away your favorite pen. Although we don’t use them much these days, we can’t say we still don’t get a bit attached to our office stuff. In my case, it’s a thing I have inherited from grad school. Well, no worries, use a Bank Pen and you’re safe. They’ll never steal your favorite pen again.

9. Monkey Picked Tea – looking for a relaxing and energizing drink? How about a cup of tea made out of leaves picked directly by the gentle hands of… monkeys? Yes, you read correctly. Here’s a little something about the product: “Legend has it that Buddhist monks trained monkeys to harvest the leaves from the top of wild tea trees.” I wonder why I haven’t seen this on Discovery yet. How Zen is that? :)

Some: $14.99 on Amazon.
10. Whatever Wall Clock - not
in the mood for deadlines? Neither is this clock. It’ll melt away hours and make you forget all about your long to do list. Who needs chores on a Friday afternoon? Have a great weekend!
