Promising review: “I LOVE this night-light. It’s in my bathroom and is a lovely addition. It turns off the second the lights go on, which is nice that I don’t have to worry about accidentally leaving it on. Super cute and the little itty-bitty lighting element does a good job lighting, just enough so I don’t have to turn the main lights on in the middle of the night.” —1Thand

Promising review: “If my house caught on fire, this is the first thing I’d grab. But seriously, this is one of my favorite things in my whole house. I feel like it tied my entire room together. I get so many compliments on it and it seriously so cozy and well made. My only complaint would be how hard this thing makes it to get out of bed in the mornings. It’s incredibly soft and isn’t the type of ‘fur’ that will mat and get gross-looking over time. I rely heavily on reviews when I buy things so I’m here to tell you — if you’re on the fence about buying this … do it!! Also, the pillowcases are amazing also. Super soft and the pompom fringe is adorable.” —SK

It helps me fall asleep and stay asleep. I add a few drops to my diffuser before I get in bed and I don’t wake up until morning. Before, I would only sleep three to four hours and then wake up. The scent lasts a few hours after the diffuser is done running. This oil can also be used in your bath or on your pillowcases, and of course the diffuser.

Also, the company is great to work with! Excellent customer service! When my sheets arrived, there was a small problem with the fitted sheet so I emailed them (the sheets came with a flier with their contact info) and they sent me another fitted sheet right away. They said they are a family owned business and really want the customer to have a great experience. I was impressed with that level of service especially in this day and age! Bottom line: great sheets, excellent customer service and great price! Do not hesitate to buy!” —Amazon Customer

The only thing I did those two nights is I slept on these pillowcases. I highly recommend these pillowcases if you were looking for better sleep.

Promising review: “Awesome addition to my workspace environment. I’ve tried several fountains so far. This one is awesome, the pump is quiet, as is the water, it simply provides a really nice environmental impact on my workspace. I run it up to eight hours in a day, use distilled water only, and clean it periodically, and it’s running just like new after several weeks. Not all of the fountains that I’ve tried work quite so well, I’m impressed and happy with this purchase. Six-month update: If I could give this thing 6 stars, I would. It runs so quiet, and I nearly let it go dry last weekend (three-day weekend and forgot to turn it off…) — once I filled it up again it was just as quiet as ever. I’m beyond impressed. Still cleaning it periodically and using only distilled water.” —Rod

Urban Outfitters, Emma Lord / BuzzFeed

BuzzFeed Shopping writer Emma Lord says: “I bought one of these as an apartment-warming gift for my own darn self and I love it to pieces. It’s compact so it doesn’t take up much space, but adds a lovely sophistication to the corner of the room. Plus it just makes me so happy to see my favorite vinyls all on display like decor, and not have to be scrambling around under the bed or on a random shelf where I used to keep them so they’d be “safe.” This came fully constructed, too, so there was no hassle pulling it straight out of the box. These are so popular that they’re constantly on backorder, so a heads up you might have to wait a few weeks depending on what color you choose — but it is *seriously* worth it!”

20. Or a set of three sun-inspired decorative mirrors so you can have sunshine even on cloudy days.

Promising review: “These mirrors are adorable, lightweight, and practical for certain purposes.

They DO NOT look cheap. I’m impressed :).” —Amazon Customer

Promising review: “Love the ease of these lights! I bought two sets for two different bedrooms for my daughters and they ABSOLUTELY love them! They are easy to hang up over the curtains. I love that I don’t have to worry about trying to string together several strands of Christmas lights that are way too long and super heavy over the curtain rod. The LED lights are very lightweight so they don’t put any extra weight on my curtain rods. Also, we love the different light modes that it can do. My girls love the warm glow that it gives to their bedrooms. The first thing my almost teenage daughter said was, ‘My room looks like a Pinterest room!’ So overall, it was a WIN-WIN! Definitely worth the money!” —stayathomemom

Promising review: “This product is very versatile in what you can do with it. Our daughters used it as a photo display as they attached it to the wall and add some small clips to it and clipped their favorite pictures to it. So it is like each picture has its own little light illuminating it. They can update it whenever they want when they get a photo they like better. It also works well as a light to transition them from daytime to bedtime while they settle down for the day. I am sure there are many other ways in which it can be used too.” —Burger42

Promising review: “The first time I saw this for dirty-not-dirty clothes (you know, the jeans you’re going to wear again but want to make sure you *eventually* wash) I was like ‘That. Is. Genius.’ Apparently everyone on Instagram and blogs and the internetverse thinks so too, but frankly it works well and is better than transferring clothes between bed and chair over and over again.

Promising review: “This basket has been wonderful so far. I had a few blankets taking up space in my closet and so I purchased this in hopes of making some space for other things. It’s definitely doing its job. It’s currently holding two queen-sized fleece blankets, a queen-sized weighted blanket, and two pillows. Super spacious! It did come folded up but if you follow the instructions that come with the basket, it will easily get some shape and hold onto it without it flopping over.” —CCLP
