With that in mind, I've been adding a few items to the vintage office section on my website. I am on the lookout for nice storage items, and useful desk accessories. There is this lovely tin with an 'embroidered' design on the lid.
And I have found a couple of brilliant large, brass, double-sided paper clips, which could also be used as paperweights because of the weight of them.
All these things would brighten your desk up. I've read that if you are surrounded by things that you like in your home, it makes you feel good. That must work in a double-good way if the things are where you are creative. So keep an eye on my site and you might see something you'd like on your desk.
