    Sorry, But You *Need* These 38 Items If You Want To Make Your Home A Cozy Haven

    Weighted blankets, cozy lounge sets, and 36 other items that'll make you want to stay home indefinitely.

    Promising reviews: "This is the softest thing I have ever put on! It is perfect for lazy nights in, eating ice cream in bed or even sitting on your porch on a cool morning drinking coffee! I am in college and you bet your butt I’m wearing this to class in the winter! I’m obsessed and will be gifting these to all my friends this Christmas! Amazing for the price too, totally worth it!" —Caroline Dudley

    "Are you a large person who’s always cold? LOOK NO FURTHER, my fellow giants. I am 6' and this blessed cloth of heavenly fluff nearly hits my knees!! Just thinking about The Comfy will make you feel warm and cozy. I’m throwing myself a housewarming party because I now live inside of this thing. BUY IT!" —Joshua Slaughter

    Promising review: 'I loved them as soon as they were out of the package! The glass is a pretty amber color that looks nice even when they are off. The flame effect is pretty convincing and they give off a bright warm glow.
    The remote turns them on and off easily... They do not come with batteries. Each one takes three  AAA batteries, so I now have no more in the house!" —Sara B.

    Get them from Amazon for $25.99+ (available in four styles).

    3. A plush double-sided shaggy duvet set you'll absolutely love snuggling up in at night. Reviewers say it's thick enough to use as a blanket on its own, but the best part about a duvet is that you can easily switch it out to fit your ever-changing taste!

    One side is faux-fur and the other side is plush velvet; the twin set comes with one pillow sham, and other size sets include two.

    Promising review: "Best things I've ever purchased. I’m obsessed with this blanket. It’s seriously one of the best decisions I’ve ever impulsively made. Pair it with the lux satin sheets. Add a little puppy and live like the sultan you deserve to be."Kathryn Cottam

    4. Some silicone soup cubes so you can cook as much as you want, without any of your delicious belly-warming dinner going to waste. It comes with a lid and is made of silicone that makes it super easy to get out when you're ready for it.

    Promising review: "These are the perfect size for homemade soup. One section is one serving, so we got two two-serving pieces. The lids fit perfectly and I’m able to freeze soups and then put the big cubes into freezer bags for storage. They’re soft silicone so it’s really easy to get the frozen soup out of the container. This was a bargain for how well-made they are and how well they work. Saves the family time and money." —Shelly Valladolid

    Get it from Amazon for $19.95 (available in four colors).

    5. A mini projector to switch things up for movie nights in. With the right adapter, it can connect to your phone, too! Your house will be the new designated movie night spot from now on.

    a reviewer holds up the small yellow and white projector

    Promising review: "It's small and light! Easily carried in a backpack for those hike-in overnighters...The projector has a little speaker on the back that can get really loud, in a good way. Obviously not a Bose stereo system, but does the job well without needing an external speaker (although there is a headphone jack for just such a use-case, but no bluetooth connection). Use the included remote control to adjust the volume...The remote control is very responsive (you'll need two AAA batteries for the remote)... I got my Roku Stick, Chromecast, and Apple TV all to work through the HDMI port [USB-C-to-HDMIwithout issue. Again, just plugged them in and switched the source to HDMI. Looks and sounds fantastic. And from either the Chromecast or the Apple TV I was able to wirelessly cast my iPhone and iPad screens to the projector. Super convenient!...All in all, you can't beat the value and features on this little projector...I highly recommend!" —Jesh

    Get it from Amazon for $69.99 (clip the coupon on the product page to save 20%).

    Get it from Urban Outfitters for $99 (available in two colors).

    7. A hand-poured soy wax candle in the deliciously cozy scent of brown sugar cinnamon. Reviewers say the smell is bold and enticing in person, so be prepared to never want to leave the house!

    Amanda Davis / BuzzFeed, www.amazon.com

    🎶 It's me, hi. I'm the impulsive buyer, it's me. 🎶 After seeing this gooorgeous candle warmer online time and time again (and trying to ignore the urge  to buy what I absolutely didn't need)...I finally did it, and WOW am I glad I did. This lamp looks even better in person, it's warms all of my candles evenly, and after moving it to my desk, I figured out it can be used as the cutest mug warmer, too! It comes with two compatible 50-watt warming bulbs that melt candles from top to bottom. The dimming feature is also really convenient for both the brightness of the light and for how fast or slow you want your candle to melt! This would definitely be a 12/10 gift. 

    Get it from Amazon for $34.99+ (available in 14 styles). 

    9. A pair of fluffy slippers that'll make you think you're walking on clouds. These slippers have nearly 29,000 5-star reviews with people raving about how cute and comfortable they are.

    Promising review: "This thing is great! The output is great. Very loud and clear with no distortion. I put the first record on it this morning and the audio quality and overall functionality is awesome. It also makes a great bluetooth speaker as well. The briefcase design makes it great for moving it room to room or traveling places with it. I highly recommend this turntable to both the beginner who's looking to get into vinyl and even the hardcore collector who is just looking for something more portable with some good sound!" —D. Morris

    Get it from Amazon for $49.98+ (available in 35 colors).

    Promising reviews: "This is very comfy and great to lounge around the house in!" —Chrissy Perkins

    "This is the most comfortable thing I've ever worn!!! I love it! I never thought I'd spend this much money on pajamas...I'm too cheap when it comes to clothing...But there were so many glowing reviews I had to try...To my surprise, they fit and feel wonderful! The colors are vibrant, very soft, somewhat stretchy but not too much, wash and dry with no shrinkage, and next to no wrinkles after sitting in the laundry basket. Well worth the extra price! Who'da thunk it? :)" —Amazon Customer

    Get the set from Amazon for $28.99 (available in women's sizes S–XL and in 16 colors).

    12. A string light curtain for when you want to bring the starry night sky inside your home. These curtain lights have eight different modes (twinkle, flash, fade, etc.) and can work both in and outdoors. They'll add the perfect ambience and make evening Instagram shoots a thing.

    Promising reviews: "I’m so happy with these lights! It took a few minutes to get them unraveled, but using zip ties to hang them made it quick and easy. My house feels so cozy now, just in time for the long winter season." —G.S.

    "These are so stunning I may just leave them up all year! I bought three strands and would honestly buy more if i needed them. I tested the waterproofing and they are definitely waterproof! I love all the different settings and the way they make my patio look... Both my mom and sister asked where I bought these lights so YES I would definitely refer these to others. You won’t be disappointed." —Brooklyn

    Get it from Amazon for $19.99 (available in 11 colors).

    13. A tea sampler box with your favorite flavors, both caffeinated and non-caffeinated! It's complete with eight different assortments (48 tea bags total) like chamomile — the relaxing tea perfect before bed, green tea with jasmine when you want a flavorful pick-me-up, and more.

    Promising review: "Every single tea in this selection is beautiful! I even loved the lemon and orange and I do not like anything of an orange derivative because it always tastes artificial. This was absolutely lovely! The teas are very smooth and mellow, very flavor forward. No overwhelming acidity or bitterness — even if you're like me and forget to take the tea bag out! It's a proper cup of tea for each varietal. It came well packaged in a lovely box that is very giftable. This was a value that well exceeded the price. I HIGHLY recommend this selection of teas! I am ordering more for birthdays and such. And especially more for me! Get this!" —Shonda C.

    Get it from Amazon for $12.49.

    14. And an electric gooseneck kettle to make preparing hot beverages an effortless and fast task. In addition to being electric (swoon!), it features pre-set temperatures for specific beverages, and the stainless-steel gooseneck actually makes pouring much smoother and more precise, while the balance handle gives you a better grip and less chance of overflow. Say buh-bye to your old time-sucking stove kettle! 

    Promising review: "So much to love about this kettle!...THIS Cosori product is sturdy and made well. It looks SO nice sitting out and we love that we can set the water temperature! I drink matcha tea each morning and my husband drinks coffee so filling the kettle, setting the temp is easy and accurate. The kettle beeps three times when the water is heated to your liking and then it shuts off which is nice. The weight of this beauty is very sufficient and the gooseneck pour is elegant and fun. Highly recommend for anyone wanting to get away from the bulky electric hot water kettles and have a great looking product sitting out on your counter." —Chris Baum

    Get it from Amazon for $50 (available in two colors).

    15. A super plush and cozy "dog bed for humans" so you can have the kind of naps your furry family members have. You know, the drooling, tongue out, not-a-sound-will-bother-you kind of nap they ALL have after a hard day of being cute. It's super soft with the faux fur, but the slight firmess of the bed will make it impossible to leave.

    Promising review: "I saw this online and decided that I'm giving it a try. I have a hard time sleeping without feeling support around me. I toss and turn over 40 times per night according to my sleep app. I tried this hoping for the best and I will say, I slept like a baby for the first time in seven years. I put a pillow under each side to prop it up to make it cradle in more and I’m in heaven. I'm 57 and have had a hard time dealing with the emptiness of divorce. Who needs a man when you’ve got this to sleep in? Purchase it! You won’t regret it. And best of all, no one snoring next to me! Win, win!" —Heavenstinyangels

    Get it from Amazon for $179.99 (available in two sizes and four colors). 

    16. A nostalgia-inducing mini popcorn maker because quite frankly, cozy movie nights in would be incomplete without it. This cute appliance isn't just looks, either. It can make 12 cups of fresh, hot-air popcorn (no oil needed👏) with just a push of a button!

    This gizmo pops up to 12 cups of cooked popcorn at a time — just make sure to have a bowl under it to catch it!

    Get it from Amazon for $27.89 (available in three styles). 

    17. Plus a cult-favorite ~secret~ popcorn salt that'll give your homemade snack the true movie-theatre taste. It's the perfect amount of savory butter that'll make it hard for you to eat popcorn without it!

    Emma Lord/BuzzFeed, www.amazon.com

    BuzzFeed Writer Emma Lord says: Our family recently unearthed this because beloved To All The Boys I've Loved Before author Jenny Han mentioned that it was her secret to delicious popcorn, and it may have just wrecked me for other at-home popcorn for the rest of my life. It genuinely tastes just as salty and buttery and savory as fresh movie theater popcorn. I inhaled it so fast that every single one of my organs lit up in mild alarm.

    Promising review: "I am a person who will make myself sick eating buckets of popcorn (I have no self control). This has by far been my favorite 'TikTok made me buy' item. My at-home popcorn is now my favorite thing to make and I don't need to go the theater for popcorn. Very much worth the purchase and this will last me such a long time." —S Martinez

    Get it from Amazon for $9.60 (available in two other flavors).

    18. A "Cup Cozy Pillow" to keep all your goodies nearby so movement from your cozy couch is limited. This gem has five expandable cup holes to fit mugs, water bottles, and snacks, with an insulating foam that keeps drinks hot or cold for longer periods. Can you say genius?

    Promising review: "This thing is great! I’m home on maternity leave with my new baby and spend most of my time on the couch under a sleeping baby. This product makes it easy for me to keep my drinks, remote, etc close by even with dogs running around. It’s a little more expensive than I would have liked but it works and I love it so money well spent!" —Amber

    Get it from Amazon for $34.99.  

    19. A ridiculously plush blanket you can use to keep warm while binging your favorite shows and also use as decor because it's just that dang cute.

    Get it from Amazon for $28.99+ (available in 12 styles and three sizes). 

    20. Or a best-selling cotton weighted blanket because it can help promote better sleep and is basically just a calming hug when you need one. It's filled with natural glass beads on the inside for weighted pressure that some reviewers say helps with insomnia and anxiety.

    Get them from Amazon for $24.99.

    22.  A towel warmer so you aren't shivering after a shower or bath. That is literally the opposite of cozy and we can't have that!

    It can fit up to two towels and has a 15-minute adjustable timer.

    Promising review: "After reading lots of reviews on several different towel warmers, I bought this product for my mom for Christmas. I tested it out before giving it to her. It works great!

    Tuft & Needle

    Promising review: "I've been using these for several weeks now and we really enjoy these. They fit our queen mattress well and are really comfy to sleep on! I also really appreciate that they are well crafted and hold up to repeated washings. Usually by the third wash some sheets show signs of wear, but these are good as the day we got them. I'll definitely be buying a number of sets!" —nemertes 

    Get it from Tuft & Needle for $60+ (originally $80+; available in sizes Twin XL—California King and six colors).

    24. A set of electric logs because they actually produce heat and have a realistic crackle to add to the "nice and cozy" feel you're looking for. We totally get not wanting to leave your house when you've got this guy inside.

    Getting a little too hot? Turn the heater off and enjoy the flames and crackling on their own!

    Promising review: "So realistic! I absolutely love these logs! I searched through every set on Amazon and online, and finally settled on this set. I am so glad I did! The remote control makes it very easy, and the flames and logs look amazingly real. The crackle of the fire can be turned on or off and can also be adjusted...low/high. It sounds so real, I feel the need to put a fireplace screen up. This is an excellent product. No problems whatsoever. Opened the box and plugged it in. It’s very hard to tell they are not real. It’s soothing, relaxing, and comforting. One of the greatest purchases I’ve ever made." —M Hall

    Get it from Amazon for $141.16+ (available in two colors).

    25. A four-pack of cozy wool-blend socks that'll keep your feet extra toasty on the cold and rainy days.

    Promising reviews: "First let me say, I am a sock person in the winter time, hardcore. While socks do not touch my feet during the summer months, I have issues with anemia and once the snow begins to fall my poor toes get cold rather quickly. I happened to grab these on a lightning deal and they are FANTASTIC! Soft, warm, and the patterns are adorable! These shall be my 'go-to' winter socks for years to come." —Mombie

    "These SAVED. MY. FEET. OMG. We even went to Niagara Falls and got DRENCHED!!!! or, at least, my friend did. My shoes were drenched sure, but my feet? Warm as if I had them in the toasty sand back home. And they were incredibly soft and comfy!...1,000/1,000 WOULD RECOMMEND!!" —Gaby

    Get it from Amazon for $9.99 (available in one size and in 16 colors and patterns).

    26. Or a pair of fleece-lined socks with grippy bottoms so you don't go slipping and sliding on your hardwood floors. They're great for wearing around the house or even with a nice pair of boots. Cold feet who?

    Promising review: "Best thing since sliced bread! I hate when my coffee gets cold. I was originally looking for one of those warming coasters, but then I saw the Ember mugs...there was no turning back. I can take my coffee with me into my bosses office and it still stays hot?? Yes please. I used that app and have adjusted my temp down to 127 degrees. It stays at that temperature the entire time. I’ve not had an issue with battery life either, doesn’t take me more than an hour to polish off a cup of coffee. I HIGHLY recommend." —Mathews

    Promising review: "The product was easy to install on a 32" TV. The LED strip consists of attachment ends that allow you to decide how much (or how little) you need. The placement is a little uneven because of my TV wall mount hardware, but THIS IS A GREAT PURCHASE. This adds to the ambiance of my room as well as enhancing movies and shows. Remote is highly responsive to chosen color changes. Grateful for the brightness adjustment and fade setting capabilities." —Jasmine

    Promising Review: "My husband works from home and does a LOT of work from the bathtub (lucky him!). This fits his mug of tea, cell phone, and laptop perfectly! I was worried because our tub is attached to the wall and there is not a lot of tub edge on the wall side, but this fits very securely. He even has room for a book on one side. There is a removable tray for you to lay your cell or a book in. It also looks very stylish." —Amazon Customer

I use lavender and lemongrass essential oils with it and the place smells heavenly! Very easy to set up and clean, nothing to screw off and on. Just lift the top off, fill with water and oil and turn the unit on. I've using it back and forth between my bedroom and living room. I will be purchasing another one very soon." —Ms Anne

    Promising reviews: "I thought the hype was just hype, but this is the kitchen tool I didn't know I would love as much as I do. From frozen to cooked chicken while retaining more moisture than any other method I am used to using." —Amanda T.

    "If you're wondering if the hype about instant pots is legit, I'm here to tell you that it IS and you need one. It's really helped me since I frequently forget to thaw meat the night before. Also, being able to throw everything in and have a fantastic white chicken chili come out in less than an hour, is just ideal... It came with a little recipe booklet, as well as a cheat sheet of reference times for cooking, which is hugely helpful, since I don't always want to Google for every single thing I cook. It works as a slow cooker, pressure cooker, has a saute function, can cook rice, make yogurt, steam eggs, and basically anything else you want. It's been helpful for me because I've been able to branch out into different meats that I might not normally have the time or know-how to cook properly. If you're stressed about safety, this is reassuring because the directions are very clear, and it locks in. I was really freaked the first time I used it, and knew nothing about pressure cookers or Instant Pots at all the first day....Anyways, the amount of cupboard space this takes up is worth it, and if we had a bigger kitchen I would leave it out all the time on the counter. I love it THAT much." —emrev

    37. A top-rated, soft and cozy Parachute Cloud Cotton Robe you can lounge around in because you deserve it. And yes, it has pockets!

    Soooo, to get to the point: yes, this robe is 100% worth it and it has ~earned~ being called a cloud robe. I received the Amber one (a mustard yellow tone) as a Christmas gift a few years ago and it is one of the best robes I've ever owned. For one, the pockets are huge and big enough for my phone, snacks, and my hair ties I constantly lose. Second, it's just really, really comfortable, super soft, lightweight, and very warm! Throwing this on while I make myself a cup of coffee in the mornings is a daily routine of mine. And occasionally putting it on after a shower and wearing it while I apply my face masks is a huuuge step in my self-care routine. If you've been debating on this robe — GET. IT. 👏🏾

    Promising reviews: "Truly a cloud. This material is so soft and buttery. Very high quality and super comfy and chic." —Jennifer Z.

    "Sweetest little robe I ever owned! I've had many robes, but this soft, lightweight robe is by far my favorite. I will definitely be purchasing more...for myself and as gifts for others." —Johanna H.

    Get it from Parachute for $109 (available in unisex sizes XS–3X and in seven colors).
