Promising review: "It’s so cute! I got it in flamingo pink, which my little one loves. It’s a shiny glossy finish, beautifully and elegantly made! It’s compact, small and portable. Very pleasant and satisfying shape aesthetically! Large power-on, volume, and pairing up buttons on the right underside and adorable blue indicator light on the left. It’s easy to pair with a phone and a laptop by bluetooth. The sound is incredible for such a small device! Plus the built-in mic is great for using at home or in the car. It’s very convenient to charge by using a micro usb. I’m pleased with my purchase and would recommend to my friends." —Amazon customer

Promising review: "So silly and fun! This was one of those silly purchases where I saw it and just...HAD to have it. This little lamp brings a smile to our faces every day, we love it. We like to dress it up for holidays, which is quite fun. All in all, if you love whimsical design, this lamp is for you." —S

Promising review: "I freaking LOVE this paw cushion! This paw cushion absolutely saves my butt. It's not super thick or as filled as you might hope. But I read reviews and was prepared for that. A little extra padding would be great but even without it this cushion is soft and comfy! It's still worth every dime. It's perfect if you have one of those hanging indoor/outdoor rope chairs, too! This cushion is soft and cute and comfortable. Buy yourself this thing. You deserve it." —mandarabbit

Get it from Amazon for $23.99+ (available in two sizes and eight colors).

Reviewers recommend using a hot glue gun if you want the butterflies to have some extra adhesive power.

Promising review: "Amazing! Just the thing I wanted! Really easy to put it on the wall. The size variations and different designs are really nice. Good product to decorate your place. Highly recommend!" —Arundhuti Dey

Get a set of 48 from Amazon for $5.84+ (available in 15 colors and in packs of 72).

Promising review: "These are quite impressive to say the least. I love the shine to them most of all. I got the 40-piece set and am honestly considering getting more. They are just that neat! They have a good sturdiness and have not lost to their luster in the dishwasher. I have already recommended these to some rainbow-loving friends of mine. They too were not disappointed." —Hernandez Family

Get a 20-piece set from Amazon for $21.98+ (available in three sets).

Promising reviews: "I'm an incoming freshman this fall and I bought this to add some personality to my dorm. It has beyond exceeded my expectations! I placed it directly on top of my dorm bed as shown in the display photos and am so pleased with how it looks. It fits perfectly with the grey/white color scheme I was going for and have received numerous compliments from both my friends and RAs when they've visited. I cannot stress enough how much of an 'aesthetic feel' it adds to my dorm." —jhsgf

If you're not allowed to use essential oils, it's still a great way to add some moisture to an otherwise dry room, *and* it provides a lovely light show! It's also BPA-free.

Promising review: "This thing is gorgeous. I love how it changes colors or you can set it to your favorite color. The vapor that rises from it smells amazing and looks so cool, like smoke rising from it. It looks like a thousand little stars with a firework effect. Photos do this no justice at all. There is no noise to it and it's super simple to use. You just take off the top and add water then add a few drops of scent into it. For it being the size of an average vase the scent fills a very large room. It looks way more expensive that what it's sold for, and it's so relaxing and calming. It's absolutely hypnotic watching the colors fade into each other. It will bring life to any room." —Poisonivey

Get it from Amazon for $26.37+ (available in 22 styles, including two sizes and an option with a remote).

Plus, it keeps your fruit separate so if one begins to rot, it won't spread to the other fruit.

Note: If you're planning on using the spiral basket for small fruit, like lemons or limes, use the 12-inch size. If you want to use it for larger fruit like apples or oranges, get the 18-inch size basket.

Promising review: "Love, love, love!! This is the coolest fruit holder. It's very well made and sturdy. Not cheap or flimsy at all. Everyone who comes over compliments it." —Laura

Get it from Amazon for $28.79+ (available in two sizes).

Promising reviews: “Love this chair! It's the cutest and is really comfortable too. Dusty pink color is exactly like in picture and fabric is super soft. Easy assembly — took probably 10 minutes.” —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "Oh my god I am obsessed with this. This is literally my favorite purchase I've made on Amazon. When I got it I was so excited.

There is an excellent amount of shelves for your money. We've put the shelves up opposite a wall with two windows that gets the most sun. Their room now looks like it's in the middle of the Northern Lights aurora borealis. It's surreal! Thank you for making me the "coolest mom ever." I'm sure next year when they turn 13 I'll just be embarrassing so I'll hold onto this as long as I can. ROTFL." —Customer

Get it from Amazon for $15.61.

They also have a waffle blanket and a pepperoni pizza blanket 😭

Promising review: "What a great blanket. I bought it as a gift for my adult nephew, and he loved it. It’s big (I ordered the 71" one), it’s very soft and lightweight, and it actually looks like a real tortilla, even has 'burn marks' (I ordered style G). For gifting, I rolled it up like a burrito and wrapped it in aluminum foil — like a real burrito. Even the dog got excited, licking his lips, thinking it was a burrito." —Natalie A.

Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in six styles and five sizes).

Promising review: "I wanted a touch light for the bedroom that was fun and colorful and also no fuss. This is all of those things! All you have to do it touch and it lights up easily. It also charges quickly. This is a sleek design and very easy to use product that I definitely recommend if you don't want to fuss with buttons, or pulls on traditional bedside lamps. It matches any decor and it super easy to use. I love how many brightness levels of white it has and then the strobing color options too. Get this, you will love it! :)" —Niki

Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in two sizes).

Promising review: "Just received these cute little boxes and am in love with them. Very thick and sturdy plastic but easy enough to open. These will work perfectly for filling solid perfumes and giving out as stocking stuffer gifts as I don't have to worry about it being a snug fit/lid falling off. I imagine these would also be great for pretend food for kids' playsets or for a kid's trinket box. Overall I love them, love their feel, love the colors and am very happy." —Mary

Get a set of six from Amazon for $6.99.

Check out our Rabbitgoo window film deep dive for more deets!

Promising review: "Our restroom has a window that faces the front yard and street. I wanted privacy without blocking the natural light so I thought I would try out this window film. I am so glad I did! It's beautiful! When I first took it out of the package, I thought it had no rainbow effect. The next day, I walk in and there's a beautiful rainbow of light reflecting on the wall. I love it! I'm ordering more. 100% recommend." —PaintBoss

Get it from Amazon for $8.99+ (available in 11 sizes).

It comes with eight different light modes, including a *twinkle* mode, with a controller attached to the lights so you can easily switch between them.

Promising review: "I bought these beautiful string lights a little over a month ago for my college bedroom and I love them!! All the brands of lights I’ve tried before now have been too dull, break easily, or are hard to install. As soon as I put these babies up they fell right into place (really, like a curtain), are the perfect brightness (but can be dimmed), and fill the entire wall. These lights also have eight different modes. I typically keep them on Steady On or Twinkle during the day. I’ve gotten so many compliments on these lights. I mean, they look fire. My roommates loved them so much that we went ahead and bought them for our living room space. Anyone else looking to brighten up your space while also making it cute, I highly recommend these lights. As a broke college student, these lights literally saved me money. Don’t sleep on these lights (no but actually)!!" —Katie Ernst

Get them from Amazon for $22.99 (available in seven colors and in a 600 LED version).

Promising review: "I find myself finding ways to enjoy my surroundings at home. This project was a lot easier than I expected and brings a bit of fun inside. I did buy a yardstick and angle ruler (I think that's what it's called) to help with the measurements. We also had a measuring tape for the stairs. We live in a split level home so our steps are split. The pack was one short so we used contact paper for the final step. This was just what I expected and we enjoy the indoor artwork." —Samantha Garcia

Get it from Amazon for $17.99+ (available in two styles).

Promising review: "WOW. Literally the cutest candle ever!!!!! I'm obsessed. Looks exactly like the pictures and even came with a little bag of extra 'Fruit Loops.' Sooooo adorable I definitely recommend buying and it would make a great gift! Oh yeah. It also smells amazing. My only issue is that it's so pretty that I never want to use it!!!" —daisy

It comes with a wooden stylus to "scratch" (draw) with, too.

Promising reviews: "I bought this for myself because I enjoyed this type of 'doodling' when I was younger — and then I decided to use them to make stress relief gift bags for my coworkers. These are VERY relaxing to do and I love that if you make a mistake, you can correct it and continue designing. I will definitely get more when they run out! UPDATE! After making 21 stress relief bags for my coworkers, all I have heard back from them is THANK YOU. These are so fun! For the price of less than $16, I brought joy and stress relief and appreciation to 21 coworkers!" —Kef000dm

"Absolutely love this! I keep it on my desk at work and it helps me de-stress and also keeps me from fidgeting during meetings. Highly recommend, especially as a gift." —SL

Promising review: "I love the vivid colors and how forgiving peel-'n'-stock wallpaper is. Adds personality to an otherwise boring space." —LLDL

Get it from Urban Outfitters for $59+ (available in three sizes).

Promising review: "OMG! I love this guy! These things large and small will ALWAYS make me laugh. My husband bought the desk version for me and I can always count on it to make me laugh. My co-workers love it too. People just stop by to turn him on for a quick pick-me-up. I would recommend getting the AC plug since batteries can run down fast. I think we should create a community of fellow air-dancer-havers and post clips of our little guys dancing to our favorite songs. Anyone in?" —Mark

Get it from Amazon for $9.58.

The candle is handmade and made of paraffin wax.

Promising reviews: "Quality, quality, quality!!! Looks even better in real life than in the photos. Bought the large, medium and small sized candles for my son’s new place and was thrilled to see them look so good . They look so good that my son doesn’t want to even light them!!:). They were packaged beautifully. Very very happy customer and will definitely buy again...this time for myself :))" —evadeg1

"I’m not big on reviewing items, but I’m extremely happy with this buy. I purchased this item as a Christmas gift for my best friend, and I must say it’s one of the best purchases I’ve made on Etsy. The candle was packaged in the cutest gift wrap ever and my friend and I were in absolute love with the quality. The owner was fantastic in response time and customer service. I’m in such love with the item that I have to purchase one for myself. HIGHLY recommend!" –Larissa Serrot

Mojaber is a family-owned, San Diego-based small biz that specializes in quality evil eye decor.

Get it in a large size from Mojaber on Etsy for $48.44. It's available as a pink evil eye candle, too!

It comes with a pretty ceramic hand base to securely hold it.

Promising review: "I originally bought the 7-inch moon for my husband as a gift of 'I love you to the moon and back' for our anniversary. I loved his moon so much that I kept stealing it, so I bought myself one, too. These moons charge up fast with a cord (with a cool 'blue moon' color when charging) and then once charged, they are completely free from cords or any connection dependence. They light up with a very detailed real moon surface design in white or yellow, and it will totally mesmerize you. You can literally 'hold the whole moon in your hand' and use it as a cordless and battery-free lamp, a nightlight, a lantern or quasi-candle in the dark. These moons are the best gift for friends, family, co-workers, kids, pets and spouses. My #1 purchase pick for 2020!" —Amazon Customer

Get it from Amazon for $16.99+ (available in four sizes and three styles).
