[help] Hiding Icons

Is there any way to hide and unhide all your desktop icons. Currently i have a folder that i keep sending my desktop files too.. but this is getting annoying and not very efficient. so is there a program or windows command that will hide all your desktop icons and unhide it, simply?

any help would be greatly appreciated!!!!
