7) Silicone Cable Ties

If at first glance you thought these were candy, Joanna did too. They aren't. They are silicone ties to keep your cords from tangling but it might as well be candy. What's sweeter than a set that includes every color in the rainbow (doubles as a labeling system!) and stars at the end to secure the cord wrap.

Another way to hide those ugly cords. How chic is this? It also doubles as a surface for devices you are currently using.

11) 30 Minute Hourglass

Sometimes it helps to manage your time the old school way. Just turn the hourglass over, do a task, and conquer the next once the sand reaches the bottom. (Plus, blue is supposed to be a calming color, so there's that!)
