Use Small Containers and Drawers
Get some small containers or have a drawer dedicated to store all those loose things on your desk such as paper clips, pencils and small notepads. This will help your desk surface stay clean and uncluttered.

Hide Cords
All those computer, monitor, phone and printer cables can get out of hand quickly. Wrangle all those cords and hide them. You can feed cords through a hole in the back of your desk, use binder clips to keep them in place and out of sight or even hide them in some PVC pipe covered with colorful tape.
