    Promising review: "I’ve never purchased clothing off Amazon but I took a leap of faith & bought this dress after reading some reviews. I’m not disappointed! I LOVE this dress. I feel so pretty in it and it’s the perfect dress to dress up in with some heels or dress down with my white Converse and a jean jacket. I’m 5’6 and got a large (usual size), and it fit like a glove. I’d recommend looking at the sizing chart if you’re skeptical, but would overall recommend getting this dress!" —Desirea

    Get it from Amazon for $24.99+ (available in women's sizes S–2XL and 21 colors).

    2. A chic BruMate insulated can cooler because now you can take your at-home happy hours outside (what a concept!) These will keep your slim cans refreshingly cool as you sit in the sun and sip away all your worries.

    This fits a standard 12-ounce slim can, and was designed to still be able to fit in car cup holders. It'll keep drinks icy cold for several hours, and twenty times colder than a standard neoprene can cooler.

    Promising review: "Like to keep your beer cold? Get this. Slow drinker but don't want to let your friends on to how slow you're drinking? Get this. Want your White Claw/Truly to stay as cold as it was when you took it out of your fridge? Get this. I kid you not this thing keeps drinks cold like that's its job (because it is). Once I got mine and saw how effective it was, I decided all of my cold beverage loving friends and family will be getting one also. With most of my friends being Michelob Ultra and White Claw drinkers, this seems to be the perfect fit. So hard to find a can koozie that holds those slim cans! Love this product and definitely recommend!" —Brooke Stull

    Get it from Amazon for $24.99 (available in 31 colors), and check out the rest of BruMate's options here.

    3. A Pocket Blanket capable of folding up so small, it can literally fit in the palm of your hand. If you're itching to embrace the good weather and head outside for a hike or a picnic, you'll want to take along this waterproof blanket — it has tethered corner stakes, so it'll stay put no matter how windy it gets.

    Matador is a small business that creates innovative, durable, and long-lasting travel and outdoor products, and in fact, the Pocket Blanket was the first product they ever created.

    Promising review: "I love this product because the blanket can fold into a small pocket and I can bring it with me while traveling. I plan to order more to put in the car, to put one in an emergency kit, and give out as gifts. It’s so convenient being pocketable." —Evelyn

    Get it from The Grommet for $29.95 (available in three colors).

    4. A pair of paper bag waist shorts with a billowy fit so breezy you'll want to wear them to every outdoor event you have on your calendar for the rest of spring.

    Psst — this is an *excellent* dupe for the more expensive ~Nap Dresses~ that have gained popularity in the last year!

    Promising review: "Ethereally beautiful!! This dress is absolutely LOVELY. It’s so lightweight, breezy, and comfortable. It fits perfectly, and the bodice has plenty of stretch so if you’re in between sizes, you could go either way. I actually sized down because I wanted to wear it on the shoulders and didn’t want the sleeves slipping off, but I didn’t have an issue with that at all. It’s wrinkly when it arrives, but a quick steam makes it look so much nicer and more expensive than it is. I got the sage green color and it’s not see-through, it’s beautiful. (I actually returned it in favor of a color I thought I’d wear more, but if green is your fave then you’ll love it). Get this dress!" —Laura

    Get it from Amazon for $35.99 (available in women's sizes XS-XL and in 15 colors).

    6. A portable George Foreman grill — even people with just a tiny balcony for outdoor space deserve to be able to grill, too! Your landlord won't even get mad at you for smoke or strong smells — this baby runs on electricity!

    A reviewer shows the same grill on their apartment balcony, which has a tiny seating area

    This comes with nonstick coating, the stand is removable, and you can adjust the temperature to five different settings.

    Promising review: "This is the perfect grill for my apartment balcony. It was easy to clean and it's really nonstick. In comparison to other brands, this actually heats up the plate instead of heating lights. It cooked really well and was very easy to install. I would definitely recommend to purchase this if you have a small balcony." —Amazon Customer

    Get it from Amazon for $125.

    7. A ruffle-sleeved dress with a pleated design that looks marvelous when the wind blows. It's available in 30 colors, so feel free to stock up on your favorite colors and make this your official spring uniform.

    Promising review: "Was looking for a cute loose-fitting dress for summer. This dress was perfect. I purchased the XS (my normal size) and it’s the perfect fit. Hits at the knee, which works well for me. It is loose-fitting without having too much fabric. I bought the navy and it is a great color." —Kalli J.

    Get it from Amazon for $12.99+ (available in sizes S–2XL and 30 colors)

    8. A set of two ~zero gravity~ reclining porch chairs so you can literally feel like you're floating as you chill out in the backyard. It comes with a pillow and a side table, which is perfect for holding your drink or placing your book down. They also fold up for easy transport to the beach or a picnic!

    Promising review: "We realized pretty quickly that with everyone home because of the 2020 quarantine, we would need more spaces to hang out in. I found this set of chairs and put the order in as a temporary measure until we found a patio set that suits the space better. These are perfect though. I can't really see replacing them anytime soon. They are comfortable, and the little attached tables are really handy! I usually have hot tea, water, a phone, and either a book or my Kindle in my immediate area. This tiny attachment made it so I don't even have to worry about where to put everything. The seat is an excellent place to spend some time watching the birds or reading in the afternoons. I am absolutely thrilled with this purchase." —Brandy Morgan

    Get a set of two from Amazon for $119.99 (available in 14 colors).

    9. A pair of overalls that look like they're pulled straight out of Donna Sheridan's closet from Mamma Mia. Warning: you might spontaneously start singing ABBA songs while wearing this ridiculously comfortable spring getup.

    Promising review: "Well made from fabric that is not too heavy. Adjustable shoulder straps. Cute for running errands, etc. I bought the Navy Blue to wear in my art studio. The fit is true to size. This keeps me clean all over since I love to splatter paint. I ordered a pair in off-white to keep clean and wear out and about. The fabric weight is perfect for all seasons. Haven't washed them yet but will stick with cold water in the washer and hang to dry." —Jewel M

    Get it from Amazon for $12.99+ (available in sizes XS–5XL and in 14 colors).

    10. A handwoven rattan bag — I don't know about you, but this beautiful accessory is practically begging to be taken on a spring break vacation to get shown off!

    Promising review: "Many ways to use this great float! Due to COVID-19, our pool is not allowing lounge chairs unless you bring your own. I'd rather tug a float around, and this one is so easy to store and fold up. Also it’s easier to use versus the standard floaty." —Amazon Customer

    Get it from Amazon for $16.99+ (available in 21 styles).

    12. A set of popular wickaway sweatbands for the days you take your workouts outside this spring and want to keep that sweat from getting into your eyes and causing some serious stinging.

    Promising review: "Amazing quality! These are super soft and keep your head cool when working out! I couldn’t believe how well they work at wicking away moisture and staying cool! They came in a super nice box that will help me to not lose them — like I’m prone to. The colors are cute and the headbands aren’t too tight at all! They have nice stretch to them if you have a larger head. This is one of the best purchases I’ve ever made on Amazon! I’m so glad I bought these!" —Amazon Customer

    Get a set of ten from Amazon for $15.99.

    13. A unique lavender lemonade mix because what's more appropriate for spring than a floral-inspired drink?! Just mix a spoonful into cold water (or seltzer!) and embrace how refreshing it is. Might we even suggest this as a midday pick-me-up?!

    Norwood Lavender Farm/Etsy

    Norwood Lavender Farm is an Oregon-based small business established in 2014 that specializes in lavender goods, including skincare, teas, cake mixes, room sprays, and gifts.

    Each of these packets makes about eight servings of lemonade, but it can also be used to flavor frostings, sauces, glazes, and salad dressings.

    Promising review: "This is delicious! It's the perfect balance of lavender to lemonade. I also like how fine the mix is because it dissolves with just a few quick stirs or shakes, even in very cold water. Definitely recommend!" —watermelonsweetie

    Get it from Norwood Lavender Farm on Etsy for $14.95.

    14. A set of cooling towels — all you have to do to make them chilly is soak them in water and wring it out! These are a lifesaver for the days you want to be outdoorsy but it ends up being much hotter outside than you anticipated.

    It also keeps its chill for hours and will immediately get chilly again when you soak it in water and repeat the process.

    Promising review: "These are wonderful and work! Purchased to use for Disney trip and they were perfect. They have no chemical smell. You just add water and ring them out. Each comes with its own case and clip. Stayed cool for hours. Great for heat and nausea. Just wrapped around neck and instant relief!" —Christina Hatfield

    Get a set of four from Amazon for $13.99 (available in nine color sets).

    15. An oven scrub cleaner because the return of spring means the return of spring cleaning! This one's for anyone who can't remember the last time they gave the inside of their oven a deep clean. It's time for that burnt cheese that's been stuck to the bottom since 2019 to finally go away.

    Cleaning Studio is a small business based in Fairfield, Connecticut that specializes in natural cleaning products and microfiber cloths.

    Promising review: "This is the first time in my 50+ years that I have actually enjoyed cleaning my oven. And no, I am not joking! This product is effective, easy to work with, smells amazing, AND I only used a tiny amount of product!!! I don't think I could imagine a way to improve this product. Highly, highly recommend it!!! Well worth any wait." —Diane Coury

    Get it from Cleaning Studio on Etsy for $19.99+ (available in plastic or glass jars).

    16. A long-sleeve ruffle dress if you've been searching for a modern interpretation of the Bridgerton look complete with pretty pastels, ruffle details, and the perfect level of fanciness.

    Promising review: "PERFECT dress for a wedding, bridal shower, baby shower, or date night! Found this dress from a blogger on Insta! I had so many compliments all night long! I bought a medium! I ordered a large first but once it came in, it was too big in my waist, shoulders, and chest. The medium fit like a glove. So glad I have this dress in my closet now! Don’t hesitate to buy!" —Maggie Burress

    Get it from Amazon for $33.13+ (available in sizes S—XL and 18 colors/prints).

    17. An ice pop mold so you can transform all those delicious in-season fruits into equally delicious ice pops! It comes with a funnel, 50 sticks, and 50 bags so you'll have all the supplies you need to make these refreshing snacks all spring (and summer!) long.

    Promising review: "Love love love these ice pop molds! I make my boys watermelon ice pops every summer for them and our neighborhood kiddos. I decided this summer to try a different mold and settled on this one. Great quality and made extremely well! I’m ordering a second mold!" —Christi

    Get it from Amazon for $23.99.

    18. A sun visor as stylish as it is effective at getting the sun out of your face as you soak in those sunny spring days. If traditional baseball caps make your head too sweaty, you'll love how the open design of this visor allows the breeze to hit your hair and neck.

    The wide brim provides much more UV protection than regular caps!

    Promising review: "I have long hair and always avoided hats because I hate having my hair sweating against my neck in a low bun or ponytail. With this sun visor–summer hat combo, I can keep my hair in a top knot and still keep my face and neck protected from the sun while catching a nice breeze. This is perfect (although a little large in circumference and I have a big head — 7 3/4 hat size) and it’s adjustable and can fit any head size. It rolls up well and has an elastic to keep it rolled. I’ll be recommending this item to all my friends!" —Amazon Customer

    Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in 14 colors).

    19. CeraVe facial moisturizing lotion because you should always be putting sunscreen on your face when you're headed outside, but especially in the spring when it starts to get sunnier! This lotion is formulated with SPF 30 to keep you protected, and it's light enough to wear underneath your foundation.

    Promising review: "Hands-down holy-grail product. I have extremely sensitive skin. No itching, burning, or redness. My skin is combination and it moisturizes very evenly. Even helps with my natural redness and dark circles. Best product on the market." —joseph gauthier

    Get it from Amazon for $12.49.

    20. Or this sunscreen from Black Girl Sunscreen that doesn't leave behind that dreaded gooey, milky look that most sunscreens do. This formula goes on completely sheer, and it's infused with jojoba and avocado to keep your skin hydrated.

    This sunscreen is paraben-free, fragrance-free, oxybenzone-free, octinoxate-free, silicone-free, and aluminum-free.

    Promising review: "I used to dread wearing sunscreen because of that horrible ashy cast it gave my brown skin. Now? I actually look forward to putting this stuff on. I love how moisturizing it is and that it is completely sheer. What it is advertised to do it actually does. I layer this on top of my moisturizer. You do need to work it in a little bit but it absorbs into the skin nicely. To all my brown/black ladies/fellas, what are you waiting for? Buy it!" —MD

    Get it from Target for $15.99.

    21. A roomy denim jacket you'll be so happy you brought along when the sun sets and it starts to get a bit chilly this spring. It's oversized enough to fit comfortably over sweaters or hoodies.

    Promising review: "Love this jacket! Pretty sure I wear it four to five times a week. Love the oversized fit, not too large that it looks ridiculous. Has four functional pockets (two outside and two inside) which are really nice. I’m able to fit my phone, keys, and wallet easily without looking bulky. If I could give it more than 5 stars I would!" —Moni W

    Get it from Amazon for $15.99+ (available in sizes S–L and eight styles).

    22. A mini projector because it's too nice outside to keep movie night inside — you might as well move it under the stars! Whether you're watching your favorite rom-com for the millionth time or a new release, you'll love feeling the nighttime breeze on your face.

    reviewer's projector hooked up to an x box

    This projector is Wi-Fi compatible, so you can connect this with your phone, tablet, or computer. And even if you're somewhere without a Wi-Fi connection, you can connect your phone to the projector with the included cable.

    Promising review: "This projector is great. It has great picture quality and brightness, just needs to be focused to match the distance you set it at. I did buy a sound bar to go with the projector but that's because I initially used it outside and with a bunch of people. The sound isn't bad, especially if you're using inside. For the price, it's a great little projector and very easy to set up. I've had this projector for a few months now and no problems." —Kayla

    Get it from Amazon for $99.98.

    23. And a projection screen you can hang up outside to get the most crisp, clear image possible. You're about to be the envy of the whole block once you put this up.

    The screen is 120 inches and made of an anti-crease material. It also comes with brackets and ropes for mounting purposes.

    Promising review: "This screen is perfect for our use. We bought it for outdoor movie nights whether being on the garage door, in the backyard, camping, or inside the garage. It’s very easy to install with no wrinkles and shows a great picture. I’ve attached pictures that show how well I can still see the picture despite being surrounded by 7,000 Christmas lights in close vicinity." —Hallie H.

    Get it from Amazon for $26.99.

    24. A microfiber window blind cleaner if you've been putting off cleaning your dusty blinds all winter because it's just so dang hard to do! With three blades that clean two blinds at once, you'll be done in no time and finally be able to cross off the dreaded chore from your to-do list.

    This set includes five microfiber duster sleeves you can wash and reuse as well as a tiered plastic base.

    Promising review: "OK I'll be honest, I ordered this because of the price. After reviewing several other options and having been disappointed with previous dusters I've had, I figured why spend more money on something that isn't going to work? So I ordered the least expensive option but WOW does this little tool rock!!!! It's very easy to use and clean. It does a fantastic job of cleaning and dusting the blinds and gets ALL of the crud off of them. My blinds haven't been this clean since the day they were first installed. VERY happy with purchase." —Amazon Shopper

    Get the six-piece set from Amazon for $7.99+ (available in two handle colors).

    25. A drip-free pitcher with a fruit infuser because sitting on your porch and enjoying the sun with lemon-infused water sure does sound nice right about now. Once you take your first sip of water from this, you'll forget those frigid winter days even existed. 

    A clear fruit infuser pitcher with raspberries in the infuser
    Amazon

    Promising review: "Love this pitcher! Bought it in June 2013 and I still use it on a weekly basis. The filter slots are perfect for keeping the lemon seeds from floating out and since the lid also has slots, I love to throw extra cucumber in the pitcher to float freely and don’t have to worry about it pouring into my glass 👌🏽Holding up great, no tiny cracks in the pitcher that tend to happen over time. Still looks exactly the same from the first day I got it." —Sovay

    Get it from Amazon for $19.99 (available in 12 styles).

    26. A rechargeable handheld fan you'll want to whip out the second you feel the first drop of sweat descend down your face as that first really hot day of spring comes along.

    I bought this to take on a summer trip to Disney World and let me tell you — it's the only way I survived!! Every day got well into the 90s, but I kept this pointed at my face whenever I wasn't soaking up air conditioning. I was seriously impressed with how powerful it was and how I instantly felt less sweaty. The charge lasts about a day if you use it sparingly (or a few hours of continuous use), so make sure to charge it nightly if you're on a trip. The fan has three speed settings, and it folds so you can prop it up on a table.

    Promising review: "I have ZERO complaints!!! My sister got married outdoors and I decided I needed a fan as I sweat a lot. Suffice to say I LOVE IT! I was cool the entire time in the sun, it has a handle and is not too big which makes it easy to tag along any- and everywhere. You won’t regret this purchase." —DIONNE HOOK

    Get it from Amazon for $16.98+ (available in five colors).

    27. A tube of Burt's Bees After Sun soother for that infamous first sunburn of the season — those springtime rays can be much stronger than they look! Apply this all over the sunburnt area as soon as possible for sweet relief from the pain, itching, and heat.

    This product is formulated without parabens, phthalates, petrolatum, or SLS.

    Promising review: "Whenever someone I know has a sunburn, I become that super-annoying product-pusher friend. I tell everyone about the sun soother! Really, Burt’s Bees should pay me. It rubs into skin like lotion so you don’t feel greasy and can immediately put on clothes after application. A little goes a long way! It smells good without being overpowering (and I’m picky about scents!). Most importantly, it works! I’ve had everything from slight burn to looks-like-a-lobster-feels-like-fire and this sun soother has eliminated the pain/itch and drastically reduced the eventual peel. Highly recommend!" —jlgentr3

    Get it from Amazon for $7.69.

    28. A uniquely designed weed removal tool that is so much more effective than regular gardening tools. The head is super sharp on the inside and the outside so it will remove even the most stubborn of weeds. The long, easy-to-grip handle makes it comfortable to use even for gardeners with limited mobility.

    Skidger is a small business whose owner came up with the idea for this ingenious weed removal tool when she would help out with her family's garden as a kid and realized a regular garden hoe just wasn't cutting it.

    Promising review: "There are nasty goat head weeds in my gravel driveway. This tool is sharp and gets under the tendrils to the stem. There is enough width by the handle to step on it and get it below the root and poof! Out it comes. Also great for weeding around rocks. And the tool itself is light to lift, yet sturdy and long enough to do the job without bending all the time! Love It!!!" —Betsy

    Get it from The Grommet for $39.95.

    29. A gorgeous solar wind chime, which actually changes colors as it blows in the wind and makes pleasant sounds. Hang this up on your front porch and marvel at it every night as you sip your herbal tea and soak in that crisp air.

    Promising review: "When I first took this out of the box, I thought 'oh boy I don’t know about this,' but I went ahead and hung it up outside to charge. When nighttime came, it started to light up and it is so neat. The colors gently change and none of them are muted. I am so happy with it." —Amazon Customer

    Get it from Amazon for $23.99.

    30. A gorgeous dress with subtle floral cutouts at the hem that'll catch the sun as the dress flows while you strut your stuff.

    Promising review: "This dress is perfect if you are on the shorter side, I’m 5’2 and ordered a size 2X which I felt fit just right, I probably could have sized down, as there was still a lot of room in the chest area, but I liked that it was flowy. I would recommend wearing nude/beige-colored undergarments as it is very sheer though! Would recommend, especially for those who are plus size and on the shorter side! Fits just the right length! I’m usually a pant size 18-short in Torrid, just so you have an idea!" —Kathy

    Get it from Amazon for $32.99+ (available in sizes XL–4X and 20 colors).

    31. A personal umbrella that clips onto the back of your beach chair so you can make sure you have access to shade, even if everyone else in your group prefers to lay in the sun all day. This is an essential item during your spring break trip or your first day trip to your local beach!

    Promising review: "My wife likes no sun, so this allows us to pull beach chairs together. I can set it up and 'boom,' no sun for her. The clamp holds up in wind and the adjustable angles that the umbrella has allow you to sort of aim the shade. Great product and it fits into a suitcase!" —Amazon Customer

    Get it from Amazon for $23.64+ (available in two sizes and eight colors).

    32. A tabletop fireplace if you want some warmth and a nice aesthetic glow once the sun goes down, but don't have enough room for a huge fire pit. It's perfect for those still-sorta-chilly early spring nights.

    You can order this with or without the sand and rocks. The only thing that you will need to purchase separately is the 2.6-oz. gel fuel cans, which you can get from Amazon

    1 Man 1 Garage is a small business based in Nashville, Tennessee.

    Promising review: "Soooo cute and easy to put together. We bought a clear spray to put on to protect it and because we actually really liked the look of the burned side. Boyfriend and I bought it to make s'mores for Valentine's. It was a perfect night in." —Bethany Schneider

    Get it from 1 Man 1 Garage on Etsy for $24+ (available in three styles).

    33. A pair of Levi's denim shorts if you don't love dresses but still want to let your legs see that glorious sun for the first time in months! Thanks to the high-waisted fit and the distressed look, this on-trend pair of shorts can go with practically anything in your closet.

    Promising review: "These shorts are great. I like the style and that they are shorter in the front but a little longer in the back. They don’t have much give but stretch out from wearing them during the day. I have gotten a lot of compliments on these shorts!" —Caitlynn B.

    Get them from Amazon for $24.99+ (available in sizes 24–34 and 23 colors; some styles available in plus sizes).

    Psst: this item is included in Prime Wardrobe so you can give it a trial run if you're a member!

    34. An inflatable lounger for a truly luxurious sunbathing experience... I bet you're already daydreaming of yourself in one of these, drink in hand and birds chirping in the distance.

    To inflate, just move it through the air and trap the air by closing the sleeve opening before you're done moving. Make sure to keep the opening closed until you start your next inflating movement. Whenever I go to the beach, I always see people doing a little running motion to fill this up with air quicker, and it seems to work really well for them!

    Promising review: "I wanted to hang out in the beach and just lay down for a couple of hours. I tried foldable chairs but they were too heavy. I tried the Wekapo and it was the best solution. It packs to a small size, it's lightweight enough, and it elevates me enough from the sand." —Amazon Customer

    36. A nonabrasive, bleach-free cleaning and polishing powder so you can pretend like all those caked-on food spills on your stovetop that have built up since last spring never even existed. Goodbye, burn marks from that overflowing pot of spaghetti!

    It'll remove rust, tarnish, stains, and mineral deposits from stainless steel, porcelain, ceramic, copper alloys, fiberglass, Corian, brass, bronze, chrome, and aluminum.

    Promising review: "I bought this after seeing numerous recommendations, and after years of searing and occasionally burning things in my stainless pans, it was time to try to bring them to a better state. Not only did this easily scrub off the latest culinary leavings, it scrubbed off the years of buildup of oil, fat, cooking spray and whatever else that have been continually baked on in the oven, stove and dishwasher. A little powder, a dash of water, a quick, light scrub, and...it's gone? How is that possible? What's in this stuff? I do not know, I do not care. After scrubbing my enamel stovetop in a fraction of the time with no scratches and better results, I became thoroughly convinced the contents of BKF is not of this realm. It's magic." —Bulb

    Promising review: "Love this! Well worth the price! I ordered a medium so that it wouldn’t be too oversized and look awkward. And it fits perfect!! I paired it with a white turtleneck underneath, but the options are limitless here. Was surprised at the quality of this item...it’s very soft and thick. Which wasn’t what I expected at all. My only real complaint is the price of the item. However, this item is very trendy, so I understand. Would definitely, and might, buy again very soon!" —Amazon Customer

    38. A carpet cleaner for tackling the most intense spills and stains you thought there was no coming back from. Instead of placing a piece of furniture over the stain and forgetting about it, use this miracle cleaner instead! This one's a spring cleaning MVP if I've ever seen one!

    Promising review: "It’s a miracle in a bottle. My German shepherd mix decided to pull a black fountain pen out of my purse and chew it to pieces on my beige carpet while I was sleeping — this cleaner lifted the stain and now it’s like the devastation my dog caused never happened! As soon as I saw it lifting the ink, I got back on Amazon and bought more bottles. I will never let myself run out of this. I use it in my Bissell carpet cleaner for some crazy good cleaning power. I’ve become that weird lady who goes around singing the praises of a cleaning product. No regrets." —L. Logan

    Promising review: "One of the best items I have ever bought for the beach and backyard! Whether playing Cornhole or lounging in a chair, your drink is always clean and cold. No more sandy or dirty cans or bottles. It even holds your drink with a Koozie on it!" —Amazon Customer

    40. A five-tier vertical planter if you've suddenly got a green thumb and want to take advantage of the nice weather while you can. This is perfect for anyone with limited outdoor space because it uses vertical space instead of lots of bulky flower beds or pots!

    Some reviewers even swear that this planter can store up to 20 beers with ice, making it the perfect backyard BBQ ~cooler~.

    Promising review: "Used for strawberry plants. The planter was extremely easy to assemble and works perfectly for my needs. Love how watering the top layers will also water the lower layers via the drainage system. Nice product!" —Fellow Amazon shopper

    41. A Bug Bite Thing suction tool because the arrival of spring also means the arrival of bugs! This literally sucks out all the insect venom and saliva from your skin if you get bit while sitting on your porch or going for a hike. Some reviewers say it stops itching in seconds!

    Some reviewers say it has strong suction power, so use it lightly!

    Promising review: "I am a magnet for bites of all kinds and carry topical and medicines with me at all times — so I figured this would be a good product to see if it really works. I woke up with a bug bite on my arm so I used this little tool (three times per the instructions) — immediately after using, it stopped itching! And less than 24 hours later the bump/bite was gone! There is a very faint red mark from using the thing, but a small price to pay IMO. Bottom line: it’s awesome. I’m carrying it with me everywhere!" —Rebecca

    42. A stick of Gold Bond Friction Defense that stops chafing caused by sweat in its tracks — something you haven't worried about for months! Now you can finally wear shorts or dresses in the spring without worrying about the inevitable inner thigh chafing (and the pain that accompanies it).

    I've used it for about 12 years now and it's the only thing that I can trust to prevent that dreaded chafing after a sweaty day of walking around. It glides on perfectly, it's unscented, and it doesn't melt away when you start to sweat. If it's a particularly hot day out, it can start to fade after a few hours, so just make sure to bring it with you to reapply. In addition to preventing chafing between my thighs, I've also applied it on my arms where my sports bra rubs against them when I run and it works like a charm!

    Promising review: "I just used it for five days in 90 degree plus weather at Bonnaroo music festival in the middle of Tennessee on a farm in June with 100,000 people walking several miles, dancing, and sweating every day. I am happy to report that this product is a lifesaver. My thighs didn't chafe once, and I have big ones! I had to reapply once during the day. I strongly recommend buying this if you have large thighs and need relief from chafing. I couldn't wear dresses or skirts in the heat if I was walking anywhere, and now I live in them because of this stuff! Buy it! It works!" —Carwizzle

    43. Globe string lights to give your porch that twinkly, cozy feel as you and your friends chat for hours on your outdoor furniture planning all the springtime activities you'll be partaking in during the next few months.

    Promising review: "Absolutely love the dim feature! These bulbs are more round than oval like others, but I love them. When they are off, there’s a cool yellow in them that offers a lovely aesthetic when not in use. Our pergola is wired for lights so we mounted them on and almost always dim them because the white pergola reflects the light. These lights have made our patio my new favorite spot in the house. My husband and I find the evenings so relaxing, we’ve literally grown closer together from spending time out under the lights in our new favorite place." —fishurmo

    44. flowery books and tea tote bag if you're looking to embrace the cottagecore trend this spring. The whimsical design is sure to remind you of Alice in Wonderland, and it's roomy enough to hold the book you're reading, your journal, and any other essentials.

    45. A garbage disposal cleaner because spring cleaning is the perfect time to clean this ~mysterious abyss~. Just shove one of the packets down there, turn on your disposal, and watch in amazement as the cleaner foams up and chomps away all the grunge.

    When using, make sure to put the entire packet down the drain aka don't open it! The packet is made out of biodegradable material.

    Promising review: "We purchased a house in August 2019 and I've noticed that the garage disposal wasn't smelling great. Kept forgetting to do something about it until recently. I purchased these because they seemed to be a good value. I followed the easy directions and was not prepared for the amount of gunk the blue foam pushed out of both sinks. It was gross! After the blue foam died down, I cleaned my sinks and they smelled much better. Almost wanted to do it again, but I'll wait a bit. Highly recommended!" —Sissy39
