This is part of the Los Angeles Times Gift Guide 2021. Please see the complete guide here.

When Los Angeles was locked down due to the COVID-19 pandemic, many of us had to quickly adapt to working from home. Some employees have been squandering ergonomic swivel chairs and all common home office supplies early on-but many of us continue to use kitchen tables and sofas as our work spaces.

Are there remote workers in your life who can benefit from some gadgets and accessories to make their professional life easier? These gift ideas are sure to please everyone who wants to start with a new way of home office in 2022.

Of course, regular notes can do the job. But why not tease yourself gently with these "currently overthinking" post-it notes? Priced at $5, they are an affordable but stylish sock filler.

These noise-canceling Miami headphones are aimed at people who use them to play their favorite music-but that doesn't mean they can't be used to drown out the competitive sound of roommate calls during your workday. There are four colors to choose from, the rechargeable battery can provide up to 50 hours of play time, and you will be able to work uninterrupted in a stylish way. If you go out for a walk, don't forget to turn on the "Ambient Sound Mode", which is designed to filter important noises so you will not be ignored.

Tired of being interrupted during important Zoom calls? This handmade "Do Not Disturb" tag-perfect for home offices-will let your roommate know when you can't discuss lunch plans or the latest episode of "Ted Lasso."

The label is made of 4mm beech or walnut plywood for durability.

The summer of 2022 may feel far away, but who doesn't want to prepare for the next heat wave in Los Angeles? These "whispering and quiet" air coolers are lightweight and have handles, so users can easily take them from room to room while walking around the house.

With an extended water tank, users can keep cool for up to 9 hours. Another bonus item? The cooler can be powered by a laptop, a power outlet or a mobile power supply.

Atmosphere, spend a whole day on your sock feet dangerously close to wearing pajamas, and need to think about the whole slip and fall. Cute socks with rubber soles tell the world that this is a lifestyle choice, not just laziness.

Air purifiers: They are no longer just for fire seasons. On the one hand, if you live anywhere west of the Rocky Mountains, "fire season" now means from Memorial Day to Thanksgiving. However, working from home also means spending a day in the room where you are cooking, and cooking fumes can quickly increase your AQI like wildfire. Do your lungs a favor by inserting one of these efficient and beautiful little devices.

Look at the glowing laptop screen all day, watching the glowing TV screen all night, take frequent breaks to check the glowing mobile phone screen: Does it sound like everyone you know? Some studies have shown that lenses that filter out high-frequency blue light can reduce eye fatigue and improve sleep quality. Although the evidence for these claims is mixed, there is no doubt that these frames will make anyone wearing them look like Elliott Gur. De wears it very cool. 70's film.

You really can never be too nice to your feet, right? Of course, those Bombas with grip are a must, but if you pair them with these comfortable wool and sheepskin house slippers, your feet will be extraordinarily happy. They provide cushioning and at the same time add some style to your work-from-home wardrobe.

Taking a nap is the ultimate benefit of working from home, but it is easily harmed by neighbors blowing leaves or roommates’ noisy Zoom. From the gurgling creek to the rumbling clothes dryer, stop the intrusion of sound waves with a soothing sound. If you are one of those people who work in bed-without judgment-Restore can also make a perfect night light and soft alarm clock.
