Add-to-Cart: 10 Affordable and Multi-purpose WFH Essentials You Can Get Online

From setting up a dedicated corner in your living room to buying a new, top-of-the-line desk chair, you've probably been thinking about optimizing your work-from-home space. 

But what if we told you that we have additional essentials for your WFH life? You probably didn't think about it, but the items listed below may be your new favorite WFH item. 

Here are ten essential items—all available online—to help keep your work-from-home life organized.

A pair of extra-comfy loungewear

Loungewear is essential whether you're working from home, traveling, or need to relax in your own space. Not only does it help you feel comfy in your workspace, but it also makes any situation more enjoyable when you've got a nice pair of pants or a pullover on.

When shopping for loungewear, look for soft and breathable items—the last thing you want is clothing that isn't comfortable during your time off! Consider the material of these items as well, since the Philippines can get hot at times. 

A soothing tea gift set

Tea is a wonderful way to relax and unwind; it's also great for the skin, making it perfect for both men and women. The best part? They can be used in so many different ways! Some of our favorite uses include:

• Afternoon pick-me-up—When your friend can't get out of bed because they're working too late again (or just feeling down), send them some calming chamomile tea with honey and lemon to give them some energy and help them wake up gently.

• After-work treat—If your coworker has had a stressful day dealing with rude customers or coworkers, why not send home an herbal blend that will calm their nerves? This will ensure they have time to relax after work without rushing off somewhere else immediately after getting home.

A cozy throw pillow

A well-made throw pillow is one of the easiest ways to make your desk feel like home. It can be used for extra support when taking a nap or reclining on the sofa, and it's also great for covering up any unsightly furniture stains that might pop up over time.

• The perfect pillow should be comfortable, supportive, and durable. It should fit your bed perfectly so that it doesn't slip around too much while you're sleeping or sitting on it.

• A good pillow will also be easy to clean; no one wants to deal with an expensive replacement every few months because there's some stain! 

A self-inking stamp

We understand that some of you may have no need for this, especially those who work from home most of the time. However, a self-inking stamp may have uses outside of work! You can use it to sign on local government documents, parcel deliveries, or even contact-tracing forms!

It lets you write all your necessary details in less than 10 seconds! There is no need to carry a pen because you can easily clip it on your identification card or vaccine card. 

A calming essential oil diffuser

We're talking about essential oils here, which are a great way to add a calming scent to your office. You can find ones that smell like lavender and rosemary at most local shops or online.

If you want to enhance your mood and productivity with essential oils:

• Lavender is known for its calming effect; it's also great for helping you sleep better and reducing stress during the day.

• Rosemary helps keep away unwanted bugs from your workspace—and it smells pretty good too!

For those interested in things mindfulness-related:

• Peppermint oil acts as an anti-anxiety agent that makes everyday tasks more manageable by helping you focus on the task at hand instead of worrying about what else needs doing before tomorrow morning arrives (we know how stressful these deadlines can be).

A chic reusable water bottle

It's a great investment. You'll save money, the environment, and your health by getting reusable water bottles instead of buying single-use plastic ones. If you're looking for something to make it easier on yourself and your wallet, this is it!

A decorative desk calendar for 2021

A desk calendar is one of those multi-purpose tools that can help you stay on track and organized. Even if we're halfway through this year, a weekly calendar can help you stay on top of your tasks. 

• It's important to set goals and keep yourself motivated; a calendar can help with both. Having something written down in black and white makes it much easier to see your progress (or lack thereof).
• A desk calendar also helps with the organization by providing a single place for all your tasks, appointments, and meetings. Spreadsheets work well for this purpose, too, but there's something about having an old-fashioned paper calendar that just feels more official—and more fun!

A portable battery charger

Portable battery chargers are a must-have for any WFH situation. They're small, portable, and can charge your phone or laptop during an emergency when you don't have access to an outlet.

Before buying one, make sure it is compatible with your devices. For example, an iPhone 4s or older model will not work with most portable chargers because they use USB C ports instead of Apple's traditional 30-pin connector. Also, check online and customer service reviews before purchasing a new item so that you can be confident that it works well with the devices you plan on charging with it!

It's also important to choose a portable battery charger that has enough power output per hour so that it won't take forever (or longer than necessary) to recharge your device(s) fully. 

And finally: don't forget about the size and weight factor! If something weighs too much or takes up too much space in your bag, then there'll be no point in having bought it at all...so try finding something lightweight but powerful enough not just today but years down the road as well!

A houseplant to brighten up your space

A houseplant can be a great addition to your workspace, especially if you work from home. Houseplants can help improve indoor air quality, reduce stress and anxiety, purify the air inside our homes, relieve depression and even increase productivity.

The key is to pick plants that are suited for your space and lifestyle. You don't want to choose a plant that's too big or too small for where you live; after all, these are living things! If you have limited space in your home office, then choose something compact like an Aloe Vera plant with its bright orange flowers or a Money Tree that will bring good luck into your life. 

A pair of high-quality headphones to block out distractions

• Headphones are an essential part of any workplace, but it's important to have high-quality headphones that can block out ambient noise.
• The right pair of headphones will depend on your needs: if you need to hear a phone call, wired earbuds might be the best choice; if you don't need any type of mic, wireless Bluetooth headphones should do the trick.
• Don't settle for subpar headphones! Check the reviews online to see which one suits your preference best.
• Dust and dirt build-up over time on your device and in its connector jacks. You should clean these regularly with an alcohol wipe or damp cloth to avoid damaging your devices due to corrosion and static buildup; however, don't get too aggressive about cleaning them—you may accidentally damage delicate electrical components inside (and ruin all those wires).

You can curate your WFH essentials without breaking the bank.

Here are affordable and multi-purpose WFH essentials that you can buy in bulk, use at home and work, and even decorate your office with:

• Pens for taking notes during meetings or writing articles (and drawing!)
• Gift cards to local breweries/coffee shops/restaurants, so you don't have to go hungry while working from home!
• Small minimalist notebooks to give out to your coworkers on their birthdays. It's thoughtful, and it boosts productivity.
