Desk Swag

If you’ve spent any significant time at a desk, like a vast portion of the working world, you know that nothing is more boring than a plain empty workspace. You have to personalize your computer desk space and flair it up. This is even truer for your gaming PC desk: why play games at a plain boring desk when you can spruce it up with all sorts of gaming related swag? There’s no better place to show off your gaming pride, and the decoration possibilities are nearly endless.

There are gaming related figurines, plushies, USB devices, LEGO sets, banners, posters, office supplies, clock, lights, and everything else in between. Funko makes insane numbers of Pop! Vinyl figurines that relate to video games, movies, comics, and TV shows. My personal favorite is small LEGO sets, especially the Star Wars Microfighter series, that are just small enough to fit on your desk with ease.

You can get gaming USB accessories and devices that are both practical and fun, like a Pac-Man Ghost USB Light or an LED Potion Desk Lamp. Or decorate your chair with a Horde Warcraft banner or put up some Mario Bros. canvas art on the wall. Honestly, just check out ThinkGeek.com: they have a ton of cool collectibles, accessories, and toys that are perfect for decking out a gamer’s desk and still staying on budget.
