A scratch-off state map as a cool reminder to finally take that road trip out west to commune with nature, far FAR away from other people.
Amazon
I own a similar U.S. map and posted it on my Instagram and everyone asked me about it! It’s gorgeous, oh-so satisfying to scratch off once I’ve visited another state, and has started so many convos with friends who want to take trips to the same places I want to go.
Get it from Amazon for $16.99+ (available in two sizes and two colors).
14. A do-it-all toothbrush holder and dispenser might make it feel like you and your outside bones are living in the year 3023. This game-changer includes a toothpaste dispenser, four cups and holders, and a place to store your toothbrushes.
Promising review: “I love this item! I saw it originally on TikTok and thought it would be perfect for our bathroom! We have one bathroom upstairs and five people who use it. This cleared up so much counter space for us! There are ventilation holes where the cups go to help make sure they dry properly. The toothpaste dispenser has really been working to get every last drop out of the tube. Would definitely recommend for a family or kids bathroom. There is also a little storage compartment behind the toothpaste that is great for extra brushes, cotton swabs, or flossers.” —Sariyah J
Get it from Amazon for $17.99 (available in three colors).
15. A foaming garbage disposal cleaner you simply throw in your sink (the whole packet!), turn on the water, and watch fizz up as it does the tough work below on all the gunk that OTHER PEOPLE have let build up in your disposal. Amazon
Promising review: “Saw on TikTok (don’t judge) and automatically added to cart. So easy to use, takes probably a minute to fully bubble up and clean, and you’re left with a clean sink! I use with other drain cleaning products, but would 100% recommend for weekly maintenance.” —Jessica Hamilton
Get a four-pack from Amazon for $9.82.
16. A pack of stain-removing, nontoxic cleaning cups that’ll clean out your Keurig’s innards once your coffee starts tasting a bit funny.
Promising review: “Okay, so these cleaner pods are awesome! I didn’t know how gross our Keurig was until today. The big mason jar on the left is when I actually ran the cleaner through plus one rinse cycle. The middle one is another rinse cycle and the last one, on the right, is the last one I did. So yes, I would suggest running two or three rinse cycles instead of the recommended one. But it’s still an awesome product for the price! I have a Keurig 2.0 and I had no issues.” —Mads0421
Get a pack of six from Amazon for $9.95.
17. A carpet cleaner will transform all sorts of soft surfaces in your home BESIDES your carpet (though it’ll do amazing work there too). Turns out, you don’t need to buy a new couch after that huge spill you’re pretending like isn’t there.
Promising review: “Buy this NOW! My husband and I absolutely love this little thing. We have used it to clean our cars, mattresses, upholstered chairs, area rugs, and our couch. It works great and is so convenient for almost everything. Easy to clean, easy to move. I did use this on our carpet to compare to my larger carpet cleaner and it did NOT clean as well as my larger cleaner did. It is excellent for spot cleaning, though.” —Marianne R. Fezza
Get it from Amazon for $123.59+ (available in two styles and with various cleaning solutions).

Get a set of six (to organize 12 mugs) from Amazon for $24.99 (available in three colors).
19. An automatic bleach toilet cleaning system, because Rosey the Robot isn’t available for bathroom cleaning, but this gadget will send cleaner into your bowl with each flush. It’s a start!It’s super quick to install, and one cartridge can last up to three months!
Promising review: “It is hard to imagine no more bending over the throne. This actually keeps it clean for months! If you get the standard one, there is a bleach smell that penetrates beyond a doubt, yet it is do-able (when you know to expect it). BUT if you get the blue type it has a pleasant refreshing smell. If you have a big family or have a lot of people over, get the standard type. If there us just you and the “plus 1″ get the blue type. There is a little difference in price, but either one is very satisfactory, dependable, and long lasting.” —JoMama
Get it from Amazon for $10.65.
20. A dishwasher magnet so everyone in the house is on the same page about whether it’s OK to eat off a plate that’s in the dishwasher.Sally Elshorafa / BuzzFeed

A set of soap dispensers you can decant your shower products into for a spa vibe. (No one has to know that’s 99 cent-store shampoo!)
amazon.com
Promising review: “I purchased these to use as shampoo, conditioner, and body wash dispensers. I wanted our shower to look like a spa! They are great quality and many people I know have copied our idea, so they are a hit! Very high quality, the plunger part is always the most important part. These are metal and not plastic, something which seems to be hard to find when looking for dispensers.” —Rebecca Morea
Get set of two from Amazon for $16.99.
24. Some faux marble tile you can put to work in your bathroom (as this reviewer did) or in your kitchen as an easy-peasy backsplash. Just make sure you avoid the actual sink, as these are flexible and humidity resistant but not waterproof.
Promising review: “Really made my bathroom stand out and it was super easy to apply. Adhesive seems very strong. I recommend making sure everything is lined up before pressing down firmly. Once it’s down it’s hard to peel back off.” —Andy
Get it from Amazon for $26.99.
25. A jar of the The Pink Stuff — a cleaning paste made to handle all kinds of gross, stuck-on situations like that bathroom floor grout you came to terms with being dirty gray forever. Promising review: “Amazing. This grout has been disgusting for years and I haven’t had any luck with any other cleaners to get it clean again. I’m amazed at how easy Pink Stuff worked. I just used a scrub brush and very little elbow grease.” —Lauren
Get it from Amazon for $5.97.
26. A *washable* faux white tiger hide rug to really snazz up your home without having to be too precious around it.
Ruggable
I own this rug and ADORE it. Like other Ruggable rugs, it comes with a rug pad that keeps it in place and you leave behind when it’s time to wash the rug. I haven’t needed to wash my rug just yet, but I think it looks like the real deal. AKA, it looks VERY expensive. And if feels even softer underfoot than an actual hide rug. (Or at least a real cow hide rug. I’ve never tread across an authentic tiger hide rug before…but that’s something I’ll be fine with if I never get around to it in life.)
Get it from Ruggable for $349 (available in five sizes).
27.
Or a boho area rug that would be easy to vacuum in high-traffic areas but still be SO stunning. Can you believe?!
Amazon
Promising review: “This rug is a great addition to my bedroom. It’s soft, easy to clean, and brings color to my room! The quality feels really nice for its price point. Only downside is the edges kind of curl up. I’m hoping they’ll go away over time!” —LDros
Get it from Amazon for $29.34+ (clip the coupon on the product page to save 15%; available in several sizes).
28.
A graciously sized storage ottoman for storing blankets or stuff you just want outta sight.
Amazon
Promising review: “We first bought a large L-shaped sectional for our new house and then did a lot of ‘research’ on size, material, and function before committing to this ottoman. It’s perfect. The fabric and color look good with our sectional, and the size and function are great. We use the lift-up section when we want to eat in front of the TV, which is pretty much daily. We use the storage for throws and for all our remote controls. Both storage areas are large, so they hold a lot and keep our den uncluttered. We love this ottoman — it’s so much more functional than a coffee table.” —AMcW
Get it from Amazon for $339.99+ (available in five sizes and 20 colors).
29.

Garage magnets for achieving a desirable carriage-door style with your existing doors. (*Actual* carriage-style doors are very pricey.)
Amazon
And you can take them off the door easy-peasy when you move!
Promising review: “I’ve been wanting to upgrade our garage door for a long time and now I have no idea why I waited! The magnets are super strong. Purchased two sets but only used one set of ‘handles,’ I wasn’t a fan of how close I had to place each set next to each other with the narrow spacing on the door itself. Paired with the magnetic ‘windows,’ it looks like a brand-new door!” —MrsPirate

A mini fridge that’ll be the perfect spot for your skincare! Or stash of soda. I guess that’s between you and this lil’ fridge. (I personally rec one for each.)
Amazon
Promising review: “I got this for my wife for Christmas, and she is absolutely ecstatic! It was sort of the centerpiece of a whole gift set, and it definitely was the star of the show. She already has all of her serums and her new jade roller in the cooler, and it’s working great so far! We are really stoked on the car adapter as well, cause now we have a cooler for road trips which is pretty awesome! Thank you for a great gift!” —Nick Capertina
Get it from Amazon for $79.99+ (available in two sizes and seven colors).
38.
A canopy bed befitting your royal lifestyle (with plenty of space underneath for storing all your civilian things).
Amazon
Promising review: “Amazing aesthetic. Price can’t be beat, especially for a low profile, minimalist look. Not as tall as I’d imagined but I’m pretty short. Description said no box spring necessary but we used it anyway and it worked perfectly, made it a bit so it looks more lush. Overall great purchase and extremely beautiful.” —Sardub
Get it from The Novogratz on Amazon for $95.19+ (available in sizes full—king and four colors).
39.
A set of room-darkening velvet curtains for a super dramatic look on the cheap. Mount the rod ABOVE the window frame and measure the curtains correctly so you can get a glam floor-skimming look that draws the eye upward.
amazon.com
Promising review: “Purchased these for my studio, which is in an old mill. I wanted them for their insulating properties more than to block out the light because my studio loses a lot of heat at night due to its enormous windows. The curtains/drapes work great for both — I am especially pleased with how well they help keep the space from losing heat! Before having the curtains the space would lose about 8 degrees in temperature overnight (which in the winter is a significant amount, especially in the northeast). Now, with the curtains, the space no longer loses heat overnight! It is now so nice to go into my studio in the morning and find it still toasty warm!” —Noname
Get them from Amazon for $33.99+ (available in five sizes and 22 colors).

Some under-cabinet lights to make your kitchen look so much more expensive and help set a mood that’ll actually make you wanna cook.
amazon.com
Promising review: “I had my doubts but I thought, what the heck, for the price I’d give them a try. I am in real estate and known as a lighting snob. The first thing I look at in a kitchen if there is under cabinet lighting. These are so nice (it helps if you have a lip at the bottom of your cabinets) They are a true white, very bright, and I was lucky they were just the length I needed. I just ordered a set and had them shipped to my mom’s as her halogen transformer which is buried in a wall, fried and I drives me nuts that the workspace on the counter is dark. I can’t wait until I make the 250-mile drive to install them. I may buy more just to use at our listings!” —pauly

A ~reversible~ indoor/outdoor rug you can hold onto as your design tastes change.
Amazon, amazon.com
Promising review: “Had one for four years. Passed it on to a friend since I wanted a different color. This rug is vinyl and lightweight and perfect for a balcony that gets plenty of sun. Easy to move and easy to clean. Dries very fast after a rain. Doesn’t fade. Table, chairs, or planters will keep it in place. Highly recommend.” —Barbara H.
Get it from Amazon for $24.09+ (available in two sizes and seven colors). Note: not all colors available in all sizes.

Oversized Turkish cotton towels that are super absorbent, quick-drying, and large enough to qualify as a bath sheet.
Amazon
Time to toss out all those makeup-stained bath towels you’ve been using since college. (Guilty as charged!) Seriously, if you haven’t gotten on the bath sheet bandwagon, you’re cheating yourself. And these would ALSO work out great as gym or beach towels.
Promising review: “These are great!! It’s a little weird to get used to using a towel that is so thin, but I’m loving the quick dry time and no smell of wet towels in the bathroom!! We took them to the hot springs this last weekend, and they were large enough to wrap around and walk comfortably to and from our cabin like sarongs!! *Added perk* would definitely suggest purchasing these!” —Genice
Get a set of four from Amazon for $54+ (available in eight color combos).

An industrial-style table lamp in case you’re after that Edison bulb style but don’t want your kids bumping up against a bare bulb.

Has a Thomas Edison old age feel about it.” —Josh
Get it from Amazon for $25.98.

A grout pen you can use to work some *cheap magic* so you don’t have to stare at the stained grout and imagine what it used to look like. Grout takes up a teeny bit of space but, as you can see from the pics, makes a huge impact!
amazon.com
Promising review: “We moved into our new home, and the shower had a really yellow grout. Cleaning didn’t do anything, and I saw this grout pen online. What a saver! Otherwise, I would have just hired someone to replace my shower. I used this grout pen, and my husband was so impressed 😀 The tip loses its shape fast, but just pull out the TIP AND FLIPPED IT OVER, and you’ll have a new tip.” —jennifer
