Have you got a neat freak on your holiday list? We can promise they probably don’t need another planner. If you’re wondering what they do need, that’s an answer best left to the pros. As someone who’s lost upwards of a thousand lip balm tubes and never knows where her phone is, I’m probably not the most reliable source for an organized gift guide. So, I left this year’s shopping up to interior designers and home-organizing experts so you can put your best gift forward.

“An organized space is my love language!” says Suze Dowling, co-founder and chief business officer of Pattern Brands. “This holiday season, I’m looking forward to giving and receiving simple, well-made products that make daily life more enjoyable.” Below, Dowling and other neatniks share the best gifts for organized people (or, you know, people who need help getting there, like me).

The best gifts for organized people, according to experts

For the office

Poketo Large Accordion Pro Filer
Poketo, Large Accordion Pro Filer — $48.00

A paper-filing organizer might not induce excitement. However, Dowling recommends this colorful accordion organizer that could make organizing papers something to look forward to—and, dare we say it, fun.

“The Poketo Accordion Pro Filer is a great tool to keep my bills, keepsake letters, and paperwork neatly organized, thanks to its brightly colored pockets and a sturdy elastic closure to keep everything bundled together,” says Dowling. “I love to give this to my work colleagues or friends who have an important life event ahead, like expectant parents or couples planning a wedding.”

Katherine DiGiovanni, co-founder of the organization consulting brand Neatnik, says never to underestimate the power of the tray.“It keeps items on a surface contained and provides a limit to the amount of things one can pile there,” DiGiovanni says. Take, for example, this two-piece acrylic tray set from BFF to make desk and countertop storage a breeze while adding a touch of timelessness to the space. “These elegant and simple trays can be used in an entryway, vanity or dresser, coffee table, bar, or really anywhere you need a little help staying organized.”

Each locker comes in a rainbow of pretty hues, so you can match your aesthetic or add a pop of color to add pizzazz to your workspace.

This cosmetics case from Calpak went viral on TikTok for great reason—it’s a lifesaver for anyone on the go.

And they smell divine, with scents like zesty lemon, refreshing lavender eucalyptus, and flowery iris.

Dyson Pet Grooming Kit
Dyson, Pet Grooming Kit — $70.00

Well+Good’s former editorial commerce director, Gina Vaynshteyn, wouldn’t call her house “neat” or “organized,” but the one thing she needs to have a handle on (otherwise, her brain explodes) is all the dog fur. With two 90-pound furry dogs, her home gets a layer of black dog hair if she doesn’t vacuum every other day (her go-to is the Dyson Outsize Plus, the only vacuum she’s found can handle that much shedding) or give her pups frequent spa days. To brush and vacuum simultaneously, she uses Dyson’s Pet Grooming Kit (an attachment kit for your Dyson vacuum of choice), which gently brushes and detangles dog hair while sucking it into the bin. This way, they shed less throughout the week, and she’s not left picking up wads of fur everywhere after brush time. “It’s been a total game-changer,” Vaynshteyn says.
