1. A disco ball planter reviewers swear brings them an immense amount of happiness because not only does it look cool hanging around, but it also adds sparkles to the room when light hits it.
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. :) Cannot recommend enough." —Phil
Get it from Amazon for $27.97.
2. A wireless, Bluetooth-enabled karaoke mic that'll turn basically anywhere into a party — just sync it with a nearby speaker, and you'll be able to belt your lil' heart out when you need it most.
Promising reviews: "Love, love, love this! Well made, quality microphone that has brought much joy to us and others. Easy to use." —Olena
"You don't understand, TikTok made me obsess over this microphone. As a 30+-year-old woman, I resisted purchasing it. I finally broke down and bought it because it was haunting me in my sleep. I'm so glad I did. When I am in a bad mood I start karaoke in my house and am instantly better. It has 'ruined' my teenage son's life because my performances can be heard through his Xbox microphone. This is a must-have product." —Zane A. Undercoffer
Get it from Amazon for $29.99 (available in 13 colors).
3. A pound of cereal marshmallows, because you're an adult with adult money, so it's only appropriate that you reward your inner child and purchase something you've always wanted — a bag full of delicious marshmallows. No need to pretend to eat the rest of the Lucky Charms when you only bought the box for the marshmallows.
Promising review: "These taste identical to the marshmallowy goodness of your favorite childhood cereals. Who knew dehydrated marshmallows could bring so much joy? The bag is huge! We've had it for a couple of months and there is still quite a bit of product left. They've been used in cereal, desserts, and by the handful. The whole family has really enjoyed them. I've noticed these are in and out of stock VERY QUICKLY, so if you're debating on purchasing them, DO IT!" —Stephanie
Get it from Amazon for $17.98.
4. A vintage-inspired vase perfect for anyone who wants to add some ~zest~ to their home decor. Plus, you can totally leave the vase out as decor even if you don't have fresh flowers.
5. A baby Nessie tea infuser that you may buy because it's cute (as one reviewer did), but then might find is actually super handy. The long-necked legend will lean against the side of the mug and help make you a delicious cup of tea.
Promising review: "This little Nessie tea infuser is SO CUTE! I never thought I needed a tea infuser until I got one, and now I can't make tea without it. It is so adorable, perfect for the mugs I have (about 8-12oz), and capable of infusing tea bags as well as ground tea leaves. It brings so much joy, smiles, and serotonin, and it's so worth it! :)" —Susan U.
Get it from Amazon for $14.41 (available in five colors).
6. An iridescent acrylic end table you ~clearly~ need to own because it puts every other end table you've ever seen to shame.
Promising review: "This table arrived on my doorstep packaged like an Ancient Greek artifact — in a wood crate surrounding the box and nestled in foam. It was flawless. After taking it out of its safe and secure home, my heart literally burst with joy. It was a true Care Bear Stare moment, colorful beams of light coming from my eyeballs and onto this beautiful little table. She's adorable, and I'm obsessed. The end." —LEIGH A.
Get it from Amazon for $98.36.
7. A set of moisturizing animal-themed sheet masks sure to make you burst out laughing as soon as you see your reflection because there's just something hilarious about seeing yourself as a rainbow unicorn. Plus, since there are six in the set, this is perfect for your next at-home spa night with friends. I can already see the pictures you're going to take of each other while you try and control your laughter.
Promising review: "I bought these to do a spa day with my niece. We had so much fun, and my face was soft for days afterward. I enjoyed them so much that I bought them again and gave them out for Christmas. Then I bought another set for myself and even shared with co-workers. I don't think it is just the facemask that makes my face look brighter, but also the joy and fun of the prints when you wear them with family and friends." —Nina M Munoz-Najera
Get a set of six from Amazon for $13.75 (available in six packs).
8. An acetate claw clip to ~spice up~ all the fall clothes you have waiting for you in your closet. Suddenly your outfit will feel so put together and on-trend when you add this to your hair.
Chunks is a woman-founded accessories brand started by Tiffany Ju in 2019 to create cute hair clips.
BuzzFeed Shopping editor Melanie Aman says: "I recently spent what some would consider to be a silly amount of money on hair clips but these bring me such joy that I can justify it. I have straight Asian hair but it's quite thick and these clips do a great job of holding it back without ripping out strands every time I remove them."
Get it from Chunks for $18 (available in four colors).
9. A heart-shaped waffle maker you'll ~love~ so much that you'll know what you're having for breakfast at least times a week. Sometimes it's the small things that make our days more enjoyable.
Promising review: "This was great for the price! For me, it makes the perfect-sized waffles. It brings me so much joy on Friday mornings after a long week working in healthcare." — Lauren Emily
Get it from Amazon for $12.99 (available in 19 other styles).
10. A rainbow prism suncatcher designed to refract sunlight around the room, causing lil' rainbows to appear. You may just feel like you're living in a magical realm, and how cool is that?
11. A cow-themed cheese holder for an ~udderly~ awesome way to store and keep your cheese slices fresh. Parents also confirm that it's a big hit with kids, too!
The container can hold up to 24 slices of cheese.
Promising review: "This cheese container brings me so much joy. I smile every time I open the fridge. It’s also great not having cheese slices sliding all over the place inside the fridge. I wish they made meat storage containers with cows, chickens, and pigs on them." —Valerie
Get it from Amazon for $10.99.
12. A pack of mini rainbow scratch art notes because you *could* use traditional sticky notes *or* you could realize that you don't have to be a kid to enjoy these beautiful rainbow ones. You can scratch away and leave yourself little reminders or even drawings that inspire. Your inner child will be SO happy.
Promising review: "These things have brought me so much joy and made me so happy to have at work. It brings a little color and cheer to a drab work environment, and I love it. The best part, no one can steal them, because they are clearly mine and no one else has them. I love them so much and will be buying them again." —Desiree Rose
Get a pack of 125 notes from Amazon for $5.97.
13. A ravioli spoon rest to prevent your counter from getting ~sauced~.
14. A disco ball diffuser about to turn your living room into a party every single day. Add 2–3 drops of essential oils, and you'll get a dose of relaxing scent with it. There's nothing stopping you from throwing on some tunes and having a midday dance break. 🕺
Promising review: "I absolutely LOVE my disco ball diffuser! It brings me joy. The diffuser works great and has timed options. You can use the disco ball without diffusing too. Lots of pretty color-changing options or you can have it cycle through all of the colors which is what I choose to do. There are two spinning modes too…slow and fast or you can set it to not spin at all. Get one. You WON’T be disappointed!! 🪩🫶🏼😍" —Heather
Get it from Amazon for $43.97.
15. A pair of light saber chopsticks made to actually glow *and* change colors. You can have them work together to pick up your sushi or have an epic battle worthy of being the high point of the next Star Wars movie. The choice is yours.
Promising review: "Ok. I have wanted these for YEARS AND YEARS and finally bought them. WHAT TOOK ME SO LONG?!?!?! I don't eat plain sushi anymore. I eat sushi like a jedi would. Easy to clean and will bring you nerd joy every time you use them." —Hoosieronthemove
Get a set of two from Amazon for $12.97+ (available in two styles).
16. A pair of retro-inspired smiley face slippers that'll be the perfect thing to wake up to and slide on your feet. Your toes will stay comfy warm, and you'll have a smile on your face as big as the ones on your feet. Talk about waking up on the right side of the bed!
Promising review: "If you're in need of a pick-me-up or simply love fun and cozy slippers, I highly recommend the smiley faces slippers. They will undoubtedly add a touch of joy to your daily routine. This purchase was definitely worth it, and I couldn't be more delighted with my choice! —Mark
Get it from Amazon for $13.99+ (available in women's sizes 5–12 and five colors).
17. A set of cat and mouse hooks made to look just like a box...until you place something on them and a cute lil' critter pops up and essentially says, "Welcome home!" Putting these right by your 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 LOVE these!! I can hang my bags, sweaters, keys, and just about anything on these. Using these gives me a lil boost of joy throughout the day." —meagan murphy
Get a four-piece set from Amazon for $15.99 (also available in a six-pack that includes a monkey and baby chick).
18. A Michael Scott dishwasher magnet so you'll never put dirty dishes into a clean dishwasher again. This is especially helpful if you live with roommates or just people who might not remember that you ran the dishwasher last night. But everyone will enjoy seeing Michael's "dirty" face telling them it's totally okay to put their cereal bowls inside.
19. A dimmable sad duck nightlight that may make you ~quack~ up when you see it, but reviewers confirm it's actually pretty bright and functional. And sometimes you need those kind of products in your life.
20. Or a portable ambient lamp if you're ~toast~ at night without a light by your side. Reviewers love this lil' thing and say the smile warms their hearts. Awwwwww. 🥺
Promising review: "I wish I could begin to describe my love for this toast light. My son gave it to me for Christmas. The absolute JOY his little face brings me. He sits right here with me every day while I work. His soft little glow and cute smile warms my heart. Also, who doesn't love toast?? I love him so much and my life is now complete." —Amanda Gikas
Get it from Amazon for $14.38+ (available in three colors).
21. A rose-shaped ice mold so you can create your 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
Get it from Amazon for $5.94.
22. A retro-inspired Bluetooth speaker that may seem small but it packs a punch when it comes to sound. And it looks like a mini record player. How cute!
Reviewers do mention that the battery life isn't great for all-day use, but better for shorter periods such as picnics and outdoor outings.
Promising reviews: "This speaker really does add more fun and joy into my life. I previously owned an Anker brand speaker that stopped working. The Muzen button isn’t as loud as the Anker speaker but still holds a clear sound. I absolutely love the design and color!" —Onika Donnay Incorporated
"Got this speaker as a gift for my super trendy and fashionable sister, quite honestly wasn't expecting it to be more than a cute fashion accessory. To say I was shocked at the quality of sound is an understatement. It's louder than my regular speaker — and it's less than a fifth of the size. Not to mention, it's soooo pretty and everyone always comments about how tiny it is. Surprisingly heavy and durable metal, not cheap plastic, which was a relief. My sister is obsessed with it and it's already her new favorite (and frequently Instagrammed) accessory. She has found a way to wear it with her outfits and brings it with her everywhere...10/10 would recommend as a gift for any fashionista/music lover or even if you just want to treat yourself." —Nina
Get it from Amazon for $69.99+ (available in five colors).
23. A yuzu-scented hand soap made with a hydrating formula that won't dry out your hands when you wash them. Plus, it smells good and pumps out as a foamy flower every time you use it.
Promising review: "It’s stupid how happy this thing makes me. It’s a pleasant smell, doesn’t smack you in the face with smell, but it does smack you in the palm with flowery joy. It’s so cute. I’m pretty sure my family is also washing their hands more often because of it. I almost wish they wouldn’t cause of how much I love it, lol. Just buy it." —Autumn
Get it from Amazon for $18.
24. A cacti bottle brush set you won't mind having out on your counter when you're not spending approximately 78% of your day washing and rewashing all your baby's bottles. And you can totally still get this even if you don't have kids! One reviewer says the brushes are great for straws and travel cups!
25. Or a daisy-shaped dish brush you'll ~pick~ out to help you wash your dishes all the time. And though it's not some woodland animals helping, you may just feel like Snow White brushing away with this.
Promising review: "Love having this on my kitchen sink. It’s happy and cute and makes me happy. One leaf did twist off after a few weeks of use but it’s still cute and I could’ve been more careful holding it. Not a super stiff brush but works well for most hand washing and quick rinses. Brush rinses well and food doesn’t get caught in it. I was happy to find it has a hidden scraper edge on top of the brush. Will def buy again when this one gets gross since it brings so much tiny joy into my kitchen." —Hannah Jo Wilson
Get it from Amazon for $13.99 (available in two colors).
26. A pack of glittery highlighters because marking up your textbook doesn't have to be boring, especially if it's 18th century literature. These will add just a bit of ✨sparkle✨.
Promising review: "These bring such joy! These glitter highlighters are the most amazing things ever. We use them at home and at work to add a level of joy to our medical plans. They’re functional and fashionable, and easy to read through." —Ragdoll Harley
Get a pack of five from Amazon for $7.
27. A magnetic cat AirPod holder just purrrfect for setting on your desk to make sure you always know where your headphones are when you get up to go to the bathroom. Plus, it will keep you company as you sit through yet another meeting that should have been an email.
Promising review: "One of the most useless things I’ve ever bought, and I have ZERO REGRETS. This serves no purpose other than to bring joy and happiness to all." —Kayla Marie
