What it is:
A handy attachment that turns an ordinary coffee mug into a desktop organizer.
Why we love it:
It seems that no matter what kind of fancy desk organizers people come up with, nothing quite beats the coffee mug. We all do it; we have some old coffee mug sitting around, and sooner or later it just becomes a convenient place to store some pencils, then scissors, then erasers, paperclips, the odd screwdriver or two and before you know it your cup, well, runneth over with office supplies. Look around your office and we think you'll find at least a few desks graced by coffee cups filled to bursting. Since we know that you'll never get the pencils and pens out of the coffee cup, we figured it was time for the mountain to come to Mohammed. So, in that spirit we went out and found a way to bring a little organization to their ad hoc mug-based desktop storage. The Mug Boss wraps around and ties on to any 10-ounce mug, providing plenty of handy storage holes for all different kinds of objects while still leaving plenty of room in the mug itself. They may have to say goodbye to ever drinking coffee out of that mug again, but at least they'll be able to find some paperclips when they want them.
