Lucky for you, we rounded up some items worth your (crafty) time and money:
1. A Cricut EasyPress, a super lightweight gadget that'll do superior work for heat transfer stuff you cut with your Cricut. (I've used one of these and they're super easy!)
Promising review: "So much easier than an iron! Just one press for glitter or regular HTV! love the built-in timer and ability to set temperatures. Love that I don't have to worry about steam from an iron or hot/cold spots." —angie_getscraft
Price: $119.20 (originally $149)
BTW, most Cricut Machines at Michaels are on sale rn (therefore *not* eligible for this 20% off code) but I highly recommend taking advantage while you can! If you find yourself cutting a lot for projects, a Cricut will change your dang life (and it's so easy to use!).
2. A 3-tier rolling cart in a pretty rose-gold finish that'll help you corral all your crafting stuff.
I've had a dupe of this cart for years and it's held my craft supplies and beauty products but is currently serving as a bar cart.
Promising review: "I love anything in rose gold tone. This cart is a great size for use in my studio apartment, where I do my crafting at the kitchen table. I store my paper crafting supplies in it. It was simple to put together, lightweight yet durable and rolls easily on the laminate floors. I also purchased the topper as it is the perfect place to keep my showing machine!" —LA Woman

11. A pair of 9-inch Wilson round cake pans can help you whip up something that'll taste as good as what you've been seeing on GBBO — and maybe even look as nice!
Promising review: "I love this Wilton Cake Pan. Not all pans are created equal in features that matter. As a baker my worse fear is my cake will stick. Equally important is baking even and the pan itself cleaning up great. This pan does it all and it's worth the cost. Purchased to bake this cake for my daughter's bday!" —Sissycat60
Price: $12.79 (originally $15.99)
12. And a Wilson cake decorating turntable so you can practice your sugary skills with some real finesse.
Promising review: "I bought this turntable to make a rosette cake for my niece’s 5th birthday. I had looked at other retailers, including Walmart for an affordable option, but had no success until finding this model. It certainly is not as fancy as other, more expensive models, but I feel that it really helped me make a beautiful cake! I would highly recommend this turntable to other light users (like me) who like an affordable and functional solution!" —Theresa3177

Promising review: "This candle is awesome! It has a built-in timer! It comes on every evening at the same time all by itself! It also has a regular on switch if you don’t want it on every day. It is perfect in my lantern outside because it isn’t made of wax so it won’t melt in the sun." —Sherikins
Price: $12.80 (originally $16)

22. Fiskars titanim softgrip scissors because this brand makes the BEST scissors and I will fight someone about this. Sorry, not sorry!
