    48 Gifts That Put The Fun In Functional

    The best gifts are gifts that make them smile when they actually use them.

    1. A "Gracula" garlic crusher because cutting and mincing garlic cloves by hand is THE WORST, but this little guy will make them smile and make prepping food easier.

    Promising review: "This is so ridiculous how cute and functional it is! I hated chopping or mincing garlic before getting this! It is fast and efficient and can get a lot done quickly. Did I mention how cute this is? Also, please know this IS dishwasher safe. I pop the hair off before putting the top in the dishwasher, and the bottom is one piece so no issues of water getting in and staying there, as other reviewers have expressed concerns about. BUT! If there is ONE THING that is a bit of a pain, it is getting ALL the bits out — but a small silicone spatula or scraper does the trick just fine for me! I use this garlic tool daily — it is honestly a game-changer for my cooking game! And it is fun and cute, which makes me want to use it more! Will be getting these for stocking stuffers for all my adult kids this year for the holidays — definitely one of those things they didn't know they need!!" —Llamazon Customer

    3. An adorable octopus-shaped blackhead remover that actually works to pull out whiteheads, blackheads, and any other ~ink~ clogging up their pores. The recipient may be disgusted by what the lil' cutie pulls out of their face, but they'll be so thankful it does.

    Promising review: "After just two days of use, this adorable little octopus has done wonders for me, and smells great too. Here's how I used it: I wore down the stick just a little to where the texture from the salt is visible, scrubbed around on my face so there was plenty of product, and then I used my fingers to gently massage all the gunk away. Rinse, pat dry, and enjoy the softness. Highly recommended for people with sensitive skin like me." —LuckLocust

    4. A magnetic cloud key holder so they have a super easy (and fun) place to stick their keys when they arrive home. No ~shade~ to your friend, but if you know that they struggle to remember where they put their keys all the time, this may just be the ~key~ to helping them stay on top of their set.

    Promising review: "This is one of the most useful purchases I've ever made on Amazon. I use it every single day to hang my keys. I've had it for at least half a year now it seems. It hasn't lost any magnetism, and it holds my car keys, remote start, USB, rewards/gift cards, house and work keys, etc. I'm in love. It's one of the best purchases I've made." —Makenah

    Talisman Designs is a small business creating products that make cooking easy and fun!

    Promising review: "I absolutely LOVE this thing. Every time my family loses it, I order another one. It gets 90% of the pits out the first time. We've had more expensive cherry pitters, and they haven't worked as well as this little guy." —Petebank

    Promising review: "I bought this dog doorstop for my 18-year-old granddaughter who just started college. She wanted a doorstop so she can keep her door open at times, and it’s a heavy door. This worked perfectly and she loves him. She calls him Lil' Ernie." —D. Jones

    7. A crab spoon rest so they don't get ~crabby~ when they have no place to set their spoon while cooking that won't make a mess in their kitchen. Plus, it will look like this lil' guy is cheering them on as they cook! 🦀

    Promising review: "I have absolutely no good reason for buying a small crab spoon holder. However, I find Sebastian to be delightful and happy. Even when he's not holding a spoon, he's functional — it looks like he's cheering me on when I cook! No, he doesn't always stay standing, and no, the spoon doesn't always fit seamlessly into his little claws, but I didn't expect him to be perfect. I love him, and I'm glad I live in a world where I can buy whimsical things for my kitchen. Happy day!" —Sarah

    9. An "Egguins" egg holder made to help boil, store, and serve eggs without much fuss on their part at all. If they make hard-boiled eggs a lot, all they have to do is place the eggs in the holder and lower them into boiling water. The whole process will be as smooth as the tap dancing in the movie Happy Feet

    reviewer image holding the egg holder made to look like pengins
    reviewer image of the holder in a pot of boiling water

    Promising review: "I love hard-boiled eggs, but it's always been a hassle to ever so gently lower them into a boiling pot of water with a spoon, then scoop them back into the now-wet carton to cool. This solves all those problems. You simply load the eggs in, lower into the boiling pot, pull back out, then store in your fridge. No more extra steps or gingerly lowering eggs into the pot. Plus, they're adorable." —Lara P

    Lunar Sol is a small business creating fun and unique home decor.

    Promising review:This planter brings me so much joy every day! It is well crafted and beautifully packaged. I appreciate the extra touches like the fact it comes with a few extra mirrored tiles and that there are different ways to display it (it comes with a stand and nicely braided hanging rope). Every day my whole living room becomes a party. :) I cannot recommend this enough.” —Phil

    top view of the daisy, showing how it has slits at the bottom that let the egg whites through

    Promising review: "This is a terrific little tool, and it works perfectly. I place it over a short drinking glass and crack an egg right into it. The white of the egg tends to hand down in one long 'stalactite,' but with a couple of shakes it plops neatly into the glass." —D. Rachlin

    Promising review: "I have a whole room filled with cat toys that my cat is not interested in. It's funny how the least expensive cat toy I have makes him go crazy. He plays with this until he's panting like a dog and I have never seen him jump so high. I'm certain this toy will help him lose his belly. He loves it! I highly recommend it!" —Kwoo

The laptop has two USB ports, one of which is always occupied by my USB mouse dongle and the other by my protected USB drive. If I wanted to plug in my phone to switch data or add another thumb drive to transfer a device, everything might have to be disconnected, but not anymore. It was really worth it." —Liberty

Since they come in a package of six, I can not only have one for my book for reading, but I can place these in the pertinent chapters that I am studying in my textbooks as well.

It turns off the second the lights go on which is nice that I don't have to worry about accidentally leaving it on.

    Promising review: "My whole family loves it! It’s so unique and fun to display. It's a very special piece to own from one of my favorite artists, Salvador Dali. I wish it was a sturdier material (it’s plastic), but either way, it will be safely displayed and the quality looks so good you can’t tell it’s plastic until you touch it. I would love if they made a larger size, but this size is great too!" —Luz C

    Promising review: "I originally picked these up to use in lieu of nasty, nasty dishrags that invoke my inner THIS IS NOT CLEAN demon. Since then, I have used them for everything from cleaning the kitchen to wiping up spills. After I use then, I just toss in the wash and they are ready to go again. They are the perfect size and do an excellent job on every task to which I have applied them. They come in a variety of fun prints, and I have yet to wear one out.

    Promising review: "This is an awesome product. I must admit — I thought it looked cool, but I had low expectations about its future as a cat toy. I mean cats never do what you want/expect, so I doubted they would be scratchin' many records. Boy, was I wrong! Ten minutes after putting it together, they were already DJ Jazzy Dax and hype boys Sputnik and Gatsby were droppin' some block rockin' beats. I can't say for sure that your cats will like it, but mine have been all about that bass since it was delivered a couple of days ago." —Jude Harris

    37. Some taco truck taco holders they're going to ~taco-bout~ for a long time (and probably gift to all their friends next Christmas) because it's the perfect way to support their taco creations and make it easier to eat (so all the toppings don't disperse when they set their taco down for 30 seconds).

    I own these and can truly say they are great. I used them whenever I have taco night, and they hold small shells easily so you can put all the ingredients in *and* set them down so you don't have to finish the taco in one go or risk it all falling apart.

    Promising review: "I got these as a gift for my hubby who loves taco night. They are so cute and work well to hold the tacos upright. So much easier and much less messy when we eat with these. They're easy to clean and so far they've held up well to a number of taco nights." —The Blissful Cate

    39. A rose-shaped ice mold so they can create their own fancy cocktail at home without having to pay those fancy bar prices. Reviewers also use this to freeze coffee and juice to add to their morning beverages without watering them down. Genius!

    Promising review: "I love this mold. I've only used it for ice and have had no issues. The built-in funnels make them so easy to fill. Once it's frozen solid, I have had no issues removing them. I have had no problems fitting them in my tumblers, and they spark joy. Worth it." —Tay

    Promising review: "I am obsessed with this funnel!!! I juice a lot of citrus and juices for cocktails, and this little guy is the perfect size for bottling. It’s beyond cute and of really great quality. I’m always hesitant to buy silicone items, as I don’t want them to be too thin. This is perfect! Sturdy and cute! Can’t get better than that! The perfect addition to any ‘cottage core’ kitchen!" —Abbey Klem

    Promising review: "I love having clean floors but sometimes I'm lazy and I live near the beach, so sand can be a hassle on the hardwood floors in my apartment. I love these so much and have worn them every day since I got them. They are super comfy and help clean!" ⁠—Laura J

    44. A cow mini vacuum to help clean up any scraps from their desk and give them ~mooo-re~ room to get work done.

    Promising review: “I bought this vacuum for my kids to suck up all of their pencil-erasings from the table. The kids enjoy using this little vacuum. It is very tiny, about 6 inches long, so it fits nicely on the table and doesn't take up space. The suction is great for such a tiny, battery-operated vacuum and it is fairly quiet. It also does a great job sucking up crumbs and other tiny debris. The head pops off for easy emptying. For the price, it is a great little sucker. It is great to have on a desktop and looks adorable. I may get another for each of them to keep on their desks in their bedrooms.” —JoJo

    45. A yuzu-scented hand soap made with a hydrating formula that won't dry out their hands when they wash them. Plus, it smells good and pumps out as an adorable foamy flower!

    Emma Lord / BuzzFeed

    BuzzFeed editor Emma Lord says: "I've *also* been using this soap, and not only is it super hydrating for my hands (LOL @ constantly handwashing now and forever!), the yuzu scent is just calming and lovely, and I'm obsessed with how light and frothy the foaming suds are from the soap. The best part is that the bottle is totally reusable; you buy the dispenser once, and then you can get refills of the foaming soap for $9.52 from then on out." Read more of her yuzu-scented hand soap review (it's #32).

    Promising review: "I saw someone on TikTok with this and did an impulse buy and I love it. You do have to give it a few pumps at the beginning of the first use to get the soap up. But it does make a cute little flower on your hand. Super cute and I love the fact that you can get refills so it's not a one use kind of deal." —Christina Hansen

    46. A set of cat and mouse hooks made to look just like a box...until they place something on them and a cute lil' critter pops up and essentially says, "Welcome home!" Putting these right by their door will make coming home after a long day a little better.

    They have a peel-and-stick application on the back, so they're best for light things. But if you want something a little stronger, you could always use Command strips

    Promising review: "I needed a spoon rest, but couldn't find one that looked like something that would fit my kitchen. Then I saw this one. It doesn't really fit my kitchen either, but how could I not buy this cool spoon rest? Whenever someone first sees it on my stove, they think it's real ravioli, haha. Oh yeah, it's also functional. It gives utensils a nice rest, and it hasn't burned nor melted." —Kesa
