1. 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 $119.99+ (available in three sizes).
2. 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! The timer looks so sleek and fancy. Even at only 15 minutes, you get a nice warm towel! 10/10 would recommend! Already thinking of buying one for myself!" —Kaylee Spence
Get it from Amazon for $119.99.
3. An extra soft, 100% organic jersey sheet set that'll make you feel like you're sleeping in your favorite oversized T-shirt every night. The combo of cotton and jersey knit material make these sheets lightweight and breathable, too.
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).
4. And 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

5. Laneige's Lip Sleeping Mask because dry lips are a serious winter issue around here! After a night with this on, you'll wake up to moisturized, hydrated lips that are softer than ever.
BTW, some people use it as a daily lip balm or lip protectant over their lipstick too!

6. And O'Keeffe's nourishing hand cream reviewers swear has magic powers because of its ~amazing~ healing abilities for dry, cracked skin. For folks who work or hang outside during the winter, this is a must!
Promising reviews: "The best on the market. I have issues year-round because of yard work or the cold winters. This is the best product you can buy, and believe me, I’ve tried dozens. I use it daily and now have soft and crack-free hands. I also use a little before bedtime so it softens while I sleep. Take a chance; you’ll never buy anything else." —Ellen
"A winter must-have for my man. He works outside and does labor with his hands. In Chicago, it’s been below 20 degrees, and his hands usually chap and bleed for the season, but with this magic stuff, he has been able to pull through unscathed." —Rebecca L. hebding
Get it from Amazon for $11.26 (also available in packs of two and 12).

Get it from Amazon for $49.99 (available in kid and adult sizes, 23 colors/prints, and in quarter zip).
8. An Ember temperature-control smart mug to keep your coffee and tea as hot as when you first poured it. It's all controlled through the app where you choose your desired temperature and can even make presets for specific beverages. Fancy stuff, right?
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

Get it from Amazon for $25.98+ (available in 17 styles).
10. A draft guard that'll keep your home the cozy safe haven that it is. When you have your space heater going while bundled up in your new blanket, the last thing you need to worry about is a cold breeze.
Promising review: "For more than a year, my teenager used a sweatshirt to block noise and cat toys from getting under his door (if a cat toy gets in there, the cat will meow at his door at whatever early hour). With hardwood floors, the sweatshirt would get nasty (collecting dust and cat hair). This product is great. Easy to install, customizable size, does its job, looks tidy, stays where it should be, and the cover is washable. We've had it installed for about a month, and it's holding up well." —B. Hansen
Get it from Amazon for $14.36 (available in four colors).
11. A Bluetooth mini projector to switch things up for movie nights in. It easily connects to your phone via Bluetooth and can mirror your laptop or TV with an HDMI cord. Your house will *definitely* be the new designated movie night spot from now on.
Promising review: "This is the first projector I’ve purchased, and it was recommended to me by a friend. I am not disappointed! I still don’t have any sort of projector screen so I decided to set it up on a random wall in our home...it still worked fantastic even on a beige textured wall! The picture is very clean, easy to focus, and the speaker actually works quite well if you don’t have an external speaker to connect it to. I love that it’s so small and easy to move, or store if needed. It will be great to use for a movie night in the backyard during the summer!" —Tanner
Get it from Amazon for $99.99 (clip the coupon on the product page to save $10).

It will make working out at home 10 times easier because it doesn't take up much space and you can easily put it away when you're done — perfect for my WFH peeps whose "office" doubles as the living room, too.
Promising reviews: "This treadmill is great if you don't have a lot of open space. It runs well and is really cute too. We love the fact that the handle bar can be folded down, so if you don't want the bars on the side you can just fold it down. It's a great feature." —Jon Desimone
"If I could give this 10 stars I would. I LOVE to walk outdoors. During winter, the weather is not conducive...I searched for a SMALL treadmill that would fit in my bedroom but not break the bank. Took a chance of this GEM! I LOVE LOVE LOVE IT! Fits perfectly in bedroom alcove, WORKS VERY WELL. It's made so you can fold and store, and folds easily... Seriously don't look at any other treadmills, you'll love this one." —DETAILS MATTER

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.

15. OR a pair of cozy inserts simply because they can transform any pair of shoes into warm and cozy foot sanctuary.

Promising reviews: "I love this heater. It’s the perfect size to keep you and your hands warm while outside on your patio or porch. It goes up to 95 degrees and is the perfect size to sit on your table. It rotates and has three different modes. Great quality as well. Well worth the money." —Kyla
"I love this little oscillating heater. You can set the temperature, how long you want it to run, and it has a remote control, too. I was surprised at how much heat it puts out and how much space it can actually heat up. We have two of them in our household. And I have recommended them to friends who have also purchased them.

This pillow is also vegan and eco-consciously made.
Promising reviews: "I bought these to replace down pillows that were getting old. I also discovered that the down pillows have been a source of my allergies. Not only are the down alternatives extremely comfortable but they’ve helped mitigate the allergy issue." —English P.
"I recently bought this pillow because I was waking up every morning with a stiff neck and a migraine. The first night I tried this pillow I instantly fell asleep and didn’t move all night long. I was originally worried about it being too soft but even the plush pillow allows your head to sink in while still supporting it. I’ve been waking up feeling refreshed and migraine-free ever since!" —Kathryn H.
Get it from Brooklinen for $55.25+ (originally $65; available in three sizes and in packs of one, two, or four).

Promising review: "This lamp really exceeded my expectations. I bought it on a whim and honestly wasn't expecting that much, but I'm really happy with it. Feels like it's made of durable, quality material and emits a strong light (but it's not too bright. I use it in the evenings when I'm trying to wind down before bed and it's bright enough to light up my room without feeling like it's going to mess up my sleep cycles).

I did some research and found these shower soothers. The smell is great, even better unwind than taking a bath! The little box they come in is also adorable. I can't wait to come home from work and use them everyday! I especially love the lavender one. They also really helped with my stuffy nose." —Emmy
Get a six-pack from Amazon for $15.99.
29. 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. 👏🏾
Get it from Parachute for $109 (available in unisex sizes XS–XL and in four colors).

Promising review: "I saw this product on one of Amazon’s must-have TikTok videos, and I knew I had to get it. It was so worth it — even though the price may seem higher compared to other sellers, this is for sure a good investment piece. The quality is topnotch, the strap that goes around your head is comfortable, and most importantly, the duration of each mode is long enough that it doesn’t interrupt your rest. I work a 12-hour night shift as a nurse, and this technology has helped me get through the night easily. 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽" —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $69.99 (available in three colors).
31. A set of three flameless flickering candles for an extra cozy ambience at home. When you've already got your vanilla candles going, these are perfect to keep the mood without clashing scents.
Check out a TikTok of the flameless candles in action.
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).

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.
33. 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 $59.48 (available in two colors).
34. A pair of fleece-lined joggers for when you're already settled on the couch and the blankets are just too far away. These cozy beauties will be your go-to during the winter (or if you're just always cold in general) because of their fleece lining and adjustable drawstring.

P.S. these covers fit standard size pillows!
DryZzz is a woman-owned small biz founded by two sisters in Miami, Florida. A portion of their proceeds goes to Sofia’s Hope Inc. to fund pediatric cancer research.
Promising review: "The pillowcase is hands down, the best I have ever used! I always take night showers and go to bed with wet hair. I've used a towel over my old pillowcases for years and I always wake up with a damp pillow and the towel on the bed. With this pillowcase, I don't have that problem! The microfiber side absorbs the moisture from my hair and the other side is a nice soft satin for those nights I don't go to bed with wet hair. I will never go back to a normal pillowcase again! I never write product reviews, but I just had to with this product. It was that good! Basically, BUY THIS PILLOWCASE!!!!" —Kristen Chorney
Get it from Amazon for $35.95+ (available in four satin colors, four cotton colors, and a white double-sided microfiber towel case).

"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 two sizes and 10 colors).
37. An Instant Pot 9-in-1 pressure cooker great for making all of the warm and cozy meals your heart desires — stew, chili, you name it. It features 15 pre-programmed and customizable cooking settings for things as simple as soup or rice, to more complicated ventures like slow cooking and sautéing.
This Instant Pot happens to be a #1 best seller with over 36,000 5-star reviews!
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
Get it from Amazon for $99.99+ (available in three sizes).
38. AND a very handy pressure cooker magnetic cheat sheet set with TONS of useful information like suggested cooking times, liquid ratios, and more. Cooking for a party of any size with an Instant Pot will be so much easier (and faster) with this!
Promising review: "I absolutely love these and having them on the side of my fridge right where I use my Instant Pot makes it so easy to look times up quickly and set the timer. I am so glad I found these." —kim

39. 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

40. 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!

41. And a vintage-looking dimmable candle warmer perfect for the candle-lover who probably doesn't have room for more (I mean, same here). This warmer will evenly melt their candles — no flame necessary.
🎶 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.

42. A gaming chair because when it's cold outside, video games become a huge source of entertainment. The comfort of the chair is top-notch, making it a worthy investment even for non-gamers because of its genius ergonomic design, lumbar headrest pillow, 360 swivel, adjustable seat, and AMAZING recline abilities (seriously, reviewers are obsessed with the recline).

Promising review: "The seat is very comfortable, the pillows are perfect, and the lower back pillow does come with a cord to plug-in for massages...[and] it really does lean all the way back LOL. My favorite part is the foot rest! I literally did not want to get up from it. And the color is exactly as pictured.
I use this chair to sit at during work, and I game also, for hours LOL. No complaints so far! I definitely recommend. 🥰" —Nela
Get it from Amazon for $99.99+ (available in six colors and two materials).
43. And a pack of super clever PS4 or PS5 controller thumbsticks so games ruined by misclicks are a thing of the past. It may be chilly outside, but these games can undoubtedly cause some sweaty, anxious thumb movements. These sticks will be a lifesaver!
Promising review: "Game-changer for sure! I didn’t believe that these little guys could change the game for me! Since they are so reasonably priced, I figured what the heck and gave them a shot! Wow! Money well spent! I wish I’d found them earlier!" —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $16.99 (also available for Xbox and Nintendo Switch controllers).
44. An electric wine opener for quick and easy access, whether the wine is for cooking or for sipping. The modern and sleek design makes it stylish enough to sit right on top of your kitchen counter, too.
Promising review: "Luxurious look. This product has a fancy design and is super quiet! It's easy to use, and within seconds you will have wine ready to pour. Hassle free and a neat way to open bottles of wine. It lights up blue, easy to recharge, and most definitely a good product to give as a gift." —Babi Gendut
