27 Ways To Turn Your Home Into A Paradise You'll Never Want To Leave

Why go out when you can stay home???

1. Rest a luxury bath caddy over your tub, light some candles, and let yourself soak for the next few hours. Or years. Whatever you need.

amazon.com

This caddy has non-slip silicone grips to ensure that it stays firmly in place while you relax.

Promising review: "This is a perfect gift for the bath lover, and a great way to make a bath look more thoughtful and designed even when not in use. Our tub is deep and has handles that this tray fits perfectly on. The ability to slide it apart makes it easy to customize to the width of your tub. When not in use, the trays and holders are a perfect place to store bath accessories (bubble bath, candles, etc.) that keep the tub area from looking like a hoarder's pile. It comes with removable soap/wine/stuff trays that can be reconfigured or removed entirely if your tub is not as wide." —C McA

Get it from Amazon for $39.37.

2. Lay a rainbow film over your windows to reflect light beautifully and get an extra layer of privacy from the outside world.

This film leaves no residue and can be removed within minutes. It's also heat-controlling, so it can warm your house in the winter and block out sun in the summer.

Promising review: "Really happy with this product. I have huge sliding door windows on the first floor, so I wanted to have some privacy but still have natural light. It was very easy to apply. I thought it would be like trying to apply a screen protector, which is frustrating, but since there's no adhesive and the material is pliable; the bubbles come out very easily. The pliability also makes it very forgiving if you don't cut it perfectly. I plan on buying more for my other set of windows! A few reviewers complained about not getting the rainbow/prism effect. It depends on the angle and intensity of the light. My windows face the setting sun pretty directly, so sunset is rainbow time! Season changing will probably alter the effect, as the angle of the sun changes a bit. From the outside I've noticed that small lights in a dark room (ex: my digital clock backlight) produce pretty rainbow circles on the film." —D. M. Guzman

Get it from Amazon for $13.99+ (available in five sizes).

3. Hang a pair of blackout curtains so you can finally get those eight hours of sleep you probably haven't seen in months.

amazon.com, Amazon

These curtains help to trap heat, muffle sound, and won't fade over time.

Promising review: "These curtains are high quality and soft to the touch, yet durable. They are sold in sets vs per panel and are comparable to the higher priced single panels. These are incredibly popular and for good reason. One side of our home gets sunlight from sunrise to sunset. During 105 degree days, the electric bill is awful. We have seen a difference already. Make sure to buy enough sets to allow the curtain to gather appropriately and darken the room when drawn. I don't have a patio door but use these on every window in our home." —Susan H.

Get a pair from Amazon for $14.35+ (available in 9 lengths and 19 styles).

4. Transform your home into a movie theater with a mini projector because why leave the comfort of your own couch to see a movie if you don't have to???

Amazon

Promising review: "This is a great projector, especially for the price. It's easy to set up and the adjustment buttons are fairly easy to manipulate. The projector also does not weigh much and the clarity is good. Color depth is vibrant and you will never feel the urge of going to theater ever again." —Amazon Customer

Get it from Amazon for $65.44+ (available in two colors). Or MacGyver the situation and DIY your own projector.

5. Avoid running out of snacks with this monthly subscription box that'll provide crunchy, chewy, salty, and sweet treats like granola bars, nut mixtures, artisan popcorn, and mini popped tarts.

Mouth

Boxes are shipped mid-month for a delivery between the 16th and 25th.

Get it from Mouth for $54+ a month (3-, 6-, or 12-month prepaid).

6. Invest in a seriously luxurious silk sheet set so you can feel like royalty while acting like a lazy potato.

Amazon

Set includes: 1 flat sheet, 1 fitted sheet, and 2 pillow shams.

Promising review: "The pillow cases feel like I am sleeping on golden clouds. I really feel like royalty on these sheets and pillow case." —Special

Get them from Amazon for $359+ (available in four sizes, 13 colors).

7. Cocoon yourself in a warm sherpa throw for ultimate comfort before you climb into bed.

Amazon

Get them from Amazon for $25.96+ each (available in five styles).

8. Expand your entertainment-viewing abilities via the Amazon Fire TV Stick by getting access to thousands of television channels and apps, plus over 500,000 movies. You can enjoy Netflix, Prime Video, Hulu, HBO, Showtime, NBC, and so much more.

Amazon

This little gadget also grants you access to live TV and sports from AMC, HGTV, ESPN, and Fox. Maybe you want to search for something on the internet? You can look up whatever you want on YouTube, Facebook, Reddit, and Firefox right from your TV. And setup really is a breeze. It took me maybe 10 minutes to plug the Fire Stick into my TV, connect it to a power source, connect it to my Wi-Fi network, and begin logging into my different accounts.

Promising review: "The Amazon Fire Stick is an amazing device. Television services are moving away from cable and satellite and are moving toward internet-based streaming formats. In fact, it provides you with every kind of app you can think of and does it at an affordable price. It plugs into the HDMI jack on your television and also comes with a power adapter that plugs into the wall. In order to work, you need to connect the device to your Wi-Fi. Movies and shows displayed by the device are typically in HD quality with good picture and sound quality. It is easy to set up and use and I was up and running in minutes." —Amazon Customer

Get it from Amazon for $39.99+ (also available with an Echo Dot).

9. Listen to a wide variety of podcasts and music with Amazon's Echo with Alexa. You can even ask Alexa to tell you a joke or sing you a song.

Amazon

Echo connects to Alexa to play music, make calls, set music alarms and timers, ask questions, and control smart home devices. Alexa can also check your calendar, weather, traffic, and sports scores, while also managing to-do and shopping lists.

Promising review: "The new Echo generation is shorter and less expensive, but gives the same great performance. This is our second Echo; one lives in my office and the new one lives in our family room. The main job it has in our home is playing music, which it does flawlessly. With two of them, we can either play music simultaneously but independently, or we can play the same music in two rooms. The list of home automation devices is growing for us, and Echo is right there for them. (Looking to get a sprinkler controller next spring.) Echo is starting to make home AI a reality, which is ok by me. I'm looking forward to how smart it can get." —Timothy L. OBriant

Get it from Amazon for $99.99.

10. Treat yourself to a skin-nourishing shower with a charcoal body scrub towel to remove dead skin and impurities for a renewed and revitalized glow.

Free People

Get it from Free People for $20.

11. And to make that shower a real party, include a waterproof speaker so you can bump your favorite tunes while washing away the stress of a long day.

amazon.com

Promising review: "Absolutely amazing little speaker. I use this to listen to podcasts or music daily in the shower or around the house. It always gets wet (obviously) and has never had any problems. It takes a few hours to charge fully but then I can use it for at least a week or more before charging again (using for ~30 minutes per day). It's not going to give you high fidelity sound, but for basic listening, it's perfect! If it has any downside, I'd say not having an auto-off feature is it. I forget sometimes and leave it on when I leave for work." —CJ

12. Protect all your most important snacks and drinks in a mini fridge that you can keep right next to your bed for minimal movement. Lazy potato, remember?

Amazon

Promising review: "This is one amazing little fridge/warmer! I loved the sleek look and design, and the colors are perfect, bright, and bold. I also love the fact it has AC/DC so you can use it inside your house, and then take it to the car or vice versa. The inside has a removable rack, and the door locks so that it won't go flying open as you are driving, which is a great forethought! I also love the fact that it has handles so it is easy to carry. This is an amazing but small and compact appliance that is perfect for the car, office, or just about anywhere!" —Kelly Barbour

Get it from Amazon for $79.99+ (available in four colors).

13. Place a mini fireplace in whatever room you spend the most time in to spread warmth and increase the cozy factor.

Amazon

My mom bought a mini fireplace for our kitchen since there's a lot of glass, and it amazes me how warm it keeps the room while we're eating meals! This fireplace has an adjustable flame brightness and a safety turnoff feature so you don't have to worry about it overheating.

Get it from Amazon for $79.99+ (available in four colors and two sizes).

14. Turn on a noise machine to block out any unwanted sounds...like your friends and family pleading you to leave your lovely abode. Hmmm, no.

Amazon

This noise machine includes six soothing sounds: white noise, thunder, ocean, rain, summer night, and brook. It'll play continuous noise or run for increments of 15, 30, or 60 minutes.

Get it from Amazon for $18.97+ (available in three colors).

15. Light a books-smelling candle just before launching into your next read. Books on books on candles that smell like books.

Amazon

Get it from Amazon for $29.63+ (available in 12 scents).

16. Give your feet a little TLC with a foot massager that'll heat up to melt away your stress.

amazon.com

It has six massage heads, three levels for height, and an easy access power button.

Promising review: "Not only is this seller amazing for customer service and for having an 18-month protection policy, but this is a great product! The heating function is nice, and the feeling of the machine itself is really good for releasing tension in my feet. I have really enjoyed this product, and am glad it has such great seller backing." —Sistoria

Get it from Amazon for $52.99.

17. Kiss restless nights goodbye with a weighted blanket. It'll feel like a constant hug and who doesn't want that??

amazon.com

Promising review: "I researched for a while because, let’s face it, these blankets are not cheap! This was my top choice. It not only comes with a removable washable cover, it is also 100% cotton inside the cover. I have been sleeping the best ever! The additional weight adds a sense of comfort and security that traditional comforters just can’t match! Highly recommend this blanket!!" —BritGirlUSA

Get it from Amazon for $69.70+ (available in five styles and nine weights).

18. Turn your bedroom into a twinkling heaven you can enjoy while you binge on Netflix and popcorn. STILL A LAZY POTATO!

Amazon, amazon.com

These lights are waterproof and stay cool due to the insulated copper wire. Huzzah for keeping them on for hours on end and not having to worry about them overheating. They can be easily bent to shape around whatever, and are plug-in (not battery operated).

Get a 33-foot strand from Amazon for $12.99.

19. Become a fish parent so you'll always have a pal to come home to and care for.

amazon.com

This tank is a half-moon shape with an LED light and feeding hole.

Get it from Amazon for $9.89 (fish not included).

20. And if a fish really intimidates you (hey, no judgement), consider a couple of succulents as a better fit. They'll turn your space into a green sanctuary.

amazon.com

These succulents come planted in their pots (with soil), so you don't need to transplant them. Upon purchase, you'll also receive a helpful care instruction guide. Just a note, each succulent grows differently and types sent to you may differ than what's in the image above. They don't need to be watered a ton, so read up on each one before going wild with the water. I keep mine on my windowsill, and they do very well.

Get them from Amazon for $15.99 and DIY your own planter with the help of Nifty.

21. Include a hanging hammock chair and suddenly you'll be taking naps mid-air. You're welcome.

amazon.com

Promising review: "I was looking for a hammock chair where I could lie back fully, as opposed to having my legs spill out over the edge. This hammock meets that need! It's flexible in that you can use it as a chair, or pull the material out further and take a siesta. I've been enjoying using it for reading and using my laptop." —John King

Get it from Amazon for $69.97 (available in three colors).

22. Lather your hands in a shea butter so high quality, you're going to immediately fall in love with the smell and texture. And always want it stocked in your bathroom.

Amazon

Promising review: "This is without a doubt the best hand lotion on the market. I've been using it for years, and during the long winters, this hand cream is a lifesaver. It's non-greasy. Even during the heat and humidity of the summer, the hand cream is absorbed in as little as 30 seconds. Within minutes of applying, I begin to notice a major difference in my hands. They're smoother and softer, and they even smell nice. While that might not seem like a lot of hand cream, it actually lasts for a long time – usually about six months of once-a-day use. I typically squeeze out a pea-sized amount of hand cream per use." –JKI

Get it from Amazon for $29.

23. Use a diffuser to double as dreamy decor. I mean, why not? It's delicate and smells wonderful.

Anthropologie

Get it from Anthropologie for $58.

24. Clear clutter with the help of a storage bed with multiple drawers for extra sweaters, throws, or sheets. Less clutter = a clearer mind.

Wayfair

These drawers are best for extra sheets and pillowcases, or out-of-season clothes you need to store. Tuck away valuables so they're out-of-sight, or use the space for blankets and shoes.

Promising review: "Integrating the functionality of drawers with the stability and comfort of a platform bed would seem like an obvious choice for the space conscious. This bed has both a stylish and well constructed appearance, and detailed construction so it will last. It is heavy, but pretty easy to put together, so it feels substantial, not cheap, and it smartly designed. Functional, stylish, convenient." —Charles

Get it from Wayfair for $346.99+ (available in two sizes and three colors).

25. Add pops of color around your home via wall art to brighten the space and make you smile.

Urban Outfitters

Get it from Urban Outfitters for $24 (14"H x 11"W).

26. Bake delicious baked goods with a silicone pan so you never have to experience heartbreak when you crumble a cupcake trying to get it out of the pan.

amazon.com

These tins are FDA-approved and guaranteed BPA-free, microwave-, freezer-, and dishwasher-safe, and heat-resistant to 450°F.

Promising review: "A must-have for any baker! Hands down, this is one of the best silicone additions to my kitchen cabinet and bakeware arsenal I have. Extremely easy to clean and they make a burn-free, stick-free recipe bakery perfect. The silicone prevents burning or hot spots with even temperature distribution, making each muffin as good as the last! Your treat will seamlessly pop out of the silicone mold once cool! Thus, preventing the dreaded fork and spoon removal method that results in crumbs and cracks. To clean, just wash and rinse with warm water and light soap and that's it! No scrubbing or scraping needed. Now everyone can be a five star baker with this five star muffin pan!" —Angel Lee Jones

Get it from Amazon for $9.99.

27. And finally, a home sauna you can use to relax and decompress on the reg to keep yourself feeling like the true superstar you are.

amazon.com, Amazon

Promising review: "I love this sauna! I'm 5'1" and 115 lbs., so I found the chair to be plenty big. I find that it gets quite hot. I usually start it at 150 to warm it up, and then after 15 minutes or so, I turn it down to 140 because it really does get hot. It feels awesome, and makes me sweat." –melinurse

Get it from Amazon for $169.42.
