1. A set of french fry clips that not only secure your food bags, but rest in their own little magnetic fry pouch that sticks onto the fridge. Just further proof that there is nothing the humble potato cannot do.
Promising review: "These are very cute and I love the magnet holder to stick on my fridge so they are easily accessible. Not sure about the durability, haven't used very long." —Save the Bees
Get a set of 12 clips from Amazon for $14.90.
2. An insulated penguin water bottle you'll love so much that, similar to penguins, you will mate with this particular water bottle for life. (Stanley whomst??)
Promising review: "This is my new favorite travel companion! This adorable tumbler doesn't just win in looks; it keeps my beverages at the perfect temperature for hours. Whether it's tea, water, or coffee, it stays hot or cold, just the way I like it. The stainless steel build gives it a sturdy feel, and the penguin design adds a cute touch that always brings a smile to my face. A delightful and practical choice for anyone who wants their drinks to stay cozy on the go!" —Sabina Zhaxybek
Get it from Amazon for $13.99 (available in two colors).
3. A set of magnetized balloon wall hooks for some Wonka-level whimsy you can use to hang everything from keys to jewelry to oven mitts.
You can either stick them on the wall using the three included adhesive pads, hang them on a screw or nail (not included), or simply put the magnetic back of them on your fridge.
Promising review: "I use these hooks on my fridge to hang oven mitts and other utensils. Love the design of these. The magnet is quite strong and haven't had any issues with them sliding down or falling off. Obviously there are cheaper alternative hooks, but what you're mainly paying for is the balloon design and the 'fun' factor of it. I'm a fan!" —darwin4lunch
Get a set of three from Amazon for $14.99.
4. A unicorn pancake mold because ingesting breakfast that ISN'T inherently magical in every single way?? Feels a bit like a scam, if you ask me! Thankfully you can use these pretty thing on eggs, too.
5. A mini inflatable tube guy for your desk to cheer you on (or remind you to take a lil' dance break whenever you overwork yourself).
Promising review: "OMG! I love this guy! These things large and small will ALWAYS make me laugh. My husband bought the desk version for me and I can always count on it to make me laugh. My co-workers love it too. People just stop by to turn him on for a quick pick-me-up. I would recommend getting the AC plug since batteries can run down fast. I think we should create a community of fellow air-dancer-havers and post clips of our little guys dancing to our favorite songs. Anyone in?" —Mark
Get it from Amazon for $8.58.
6. A shaker of Thin Mint seasoning you need to buy as a favor to all your taste buds immediately. Allow me to paint a picture for you: Thin Mint coffee, Thin Mint pudding, Thin Mint popcorn, Thin Mint anything your dessert gremlin heart desires.
I stared at this for months online before caving and buying it, and when I tell you!! It jazzes up my morning coffee in a way that makes my little '90s baby heart sing. I've also loved it on greek yogurt, oatmeal, and mug cakes. Plus when I am feeling lonely for a real Thin Mint and we're not in Girl Scout cookie season, I'll shake this on an Oreo Thin to stave off the despair.
Get it from Amazon for $4.98 (and try their s'mores seasoning blend, too!).
7. A bag of freeze-dried Sour Skittles for anyone who wants to embark on their newest candy obsession — these "cosmic crunchies" are unlike any other earthly candy you've tried before, giving a lighter, crunchier texture to Skittles without compromising on their delectable sour taste.
Space Age Snacks is a small business that specializes in small batch freeze-dried candy.
Promising review: "Honestly, I didn't know what to expect going in, but I was pleasantly surprised. Skittles normally taste alrighy, but having them freeze dried really made the flavors POP, and genuinely I feel like they had more flavor than normal Skittles. (Then again, that might just be my head playing it up knowing it's a first, who knows, who cares.) Very delicious." —John Blake
Get it from Amazon for $9.99 (and check out the rest of their freeze-dried candy for more options).
8. A set of Globbles, which are about to be your new favorite stress-relieving fidget toy. These colorful balls are squishy, stretchy, and stick to pretty much any flat surface you throw them at *without* leaving any messy residue. TikTokers are having a blast tossing these at walls and ceilings to see the satisfying way they glom onto them.
Check out a TikTok of the Globbles in action.
Promising review: "Bought a six-pack for my neurodivergent family. We are all either ADHD or autistic. I struggle with compulsive hair pulling and bought these to help keep my hands busy. They are the perfect size, more satisfying than a stress ball, clean easily, fun to hurl at the wall or ceiling, and so far have lasted very well. I did test the durability of one and did break one when I pulled it as hard as I could —the inside looks something like shaving cream and didn’t smell or anything. But if you have a kid who is an aggressive chewer, perhaps keep an eye on them." —Amazon Customer
Get a set of six from Amazon for $10.69.
9. A crayon vase to brighten up your bookshelf or desk because minimalism is OUT and recapturing the lawless joy of going to clown town on a coloring book is IN!!!!
Ban.do is a US-based small business that specializes in quirky accessories, home products, and stationery.
Promising review: "Adorable vase! Would make a cute and quirky addition to any decor. I’m using it to style a bookshelf in my home office/art studio. It is small, but the colors and retro feel make a nice graphic pop in my room. I think this vase would look great in a kids room or teachers classroom as well." —Dani
Get it from Amazon for $26.95.
10. "Tipsy Land," which is basically what happens if you combined a Candy Land and Monopoly board and gave it a booze-y makeover. In this game you can call out friends, do silly dares, have mini competitions, and play "Never Have I Ever," reclaiming the joy of your old basement parties without pain of a Smirnoff Ice hangover. (Bonus: you can absolutely play on "sober mode"!)
Promising review: "My friends and family absolutely love this game! This is such a fun way to gather together and make memories with the people you love. 10/10 would recommend to anyone that likes to have fun! Great quality product and also comes out to be cute decor sitting in our living room!" —krista
Get it from Amazon for $24.99.
11. A "Hell Done" digital thermometer so you can keep track of your meats to know if they're rare, medium, well-done, or positively ~sinful~. This features a clear and easy-to-read digital display, plus the ability to tell people you literally went to hell and back to cook this meal!!!
Promising review: "This thermometer not only works perfectly, but is a great conversation starter at gatherings! I've used it a few times now and am completely satisfied with the purchase. It is accurate, and the display is super easy to read. If you buy this, make sure to read the back of the box ;)." —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $19.95.
12. A bread plushy alarm clock to make you ~loaf~ getting up in the morning again. Not only is this a cheerful motivator on days when your inner toast is burnt out, but it's a great swap out for your phone alarm if you're trying to be mindful about not getting on the internet first thing in the morning.
It also has a "vibrating" wake up option, so instead of making noise it will just start vibrating in your arms to gently wake you.
Promising review: "You may not know that you were missing a plush bread-shaped alarm clock in your life, but once you have it, you’ll ask how you ever lived without it. This is, at it’s very basic level, a stuffed animal (loaf of bread) with a vibrating alarm clock built inside. While the instruction are a little confusing, and the execution isn’t perfect, it does what it is supposed to do. The audible alarm is pleasant. The vibrating alarm is strong. The stuffed bread is, well, super cute. You’ll enjoy." —AIC
Get it from Amazon for $23.89.
13. A mildly alarming if not adorable flexible flower vase that will fascinate guests when they can bend its limbs and hang it from any fixture they choose. That says if this thing *does* come to life in the middle of the night and starts singing and dancing all over your room, well. That's on you for buying whatever the heck this is.
Promising review: "An affable, squishy, bendy, happy little vase! The consensus on my social media page is that everyone should have one of these. I finally got a chance to try it out with some daffodils, and really, it's hard not to smile when you see them." —Susy Lundy
Get it from Amazon for $20.90 (available in three colors).
14. A pair of glowing lightsaber chopsticks to bring balance to The Force *and* to your sushi.
As you can see from the above GIF, I bought these for myself, and I love them to pieces. TBH, I use them as decor every bit as much as I use them to eat. Sometimes I just keep them in my work area to light them up during the day to feel fancy. They toggle back and forth between a bunch of different colors, like red, blue, yellow, purple, and multicolor, so you can either make them match *or* have a red and blue one together and bring ~balance~ to the Force.
Get it from Amazon for $11.97.
15. An attachable Stanley cup snack bowl for the ultimate in "girl dinner" hacks. Now you can have all your beloved snacks close to your face and be *thissss* close to living the dream of eating out of a trough like a fluffy farm animal.
Psst — lots of reviewers say this fits their Stanley cup *and* the cheaper alternative versions of it, like this $29 Simple Modern tumbler.
Check out a TikTok of the Stanley snack cup in action.
Promising review: "If using this snack holder on my Stanley is wrong, I don't want to be right. Now when I sit at baseball tournaments all day, I don't have to keep reaching into snack bags and coolers. We all get the snack we want and never have to carry more than a cup. I do get some odd looks but if they had one, they wouldn't be judging anymore. Sits very sturdily on my tumbler but comes off easily when I'm done with it." —Abby
Get it from Amazon for $12.79 (available in five colors).
16. A dimmable sad duck nightlight because sometimes you just have to look at this emotionally deflated creature on your desk and be like, "Welp. At least I'm doing better than that little dude." Reviewers love this for late night studying or reading without a harsh overhead light!
Promising review: "I ordered this lamp because of its appearance. I didn't NEED a depressed duck lamp ... but it has totally filled a void in my life I didn't know existed. Everyone who sees it pokes it. The lamp is actually very functional. It's got a really nice set of brightness options and the glow is yellowish, which is much nicer than white in a dim/dark room. One thing that isn't mentioned in the description is that its legs are utterly floppy. It's terrific." —Literated
Get it from Amazon for $19.99 (available in three styles).
17. A Silly Poopy's Hide & Seek game, aka any parents' dream — this gizmo keeps kids entertained for hours of fun hiding it all over the house, where it makes little noises to give clues about where to find it. It's basically all the joy of playing hide and seek, except it's the *toy* hiding, not the humans.
Check out a TikTok of the Silly Poopy in action.
Promising review: "Let me tell you that if you want hours of endless fun of hide and go seek without having to hide yourself, this is a must get! When it's hidden it makes various toot noises and says stuff so the kids know if they are close. And when they find it and press the button to do and sing the silly poopy dance ... even you will dance and sing along!!! Doesn't need batteries and come on, it's poop? Who doesn't think poop and toot noises are funny and if they don't they are lying to themselves. A must-have for fun with your kids without barely doing any work!!" —andrea kelli gorman
Get it from Amazon for $12.99.
18. A delightfully realistic espresso martini candle so instead of tempting all your stomach's inner demons by indulging in a second one, you can light this bb up instead.
Candle Lume is a Canada-based Etsy shop that specializes in custom candles in 25 different scents.
Promising review: "This is such an awesome candle! Smells great too!" —Meghan McKay
Get it from Candle Lume on Etsy for $26.18 (available in a roasted espresso scent or unscented).
19. A cherry toilet brush because yes, we apparently live in a day and age where a guest can emerge from your bathroom and full bodily say to you, "Oh my god, where did you get that adorable toilet brush??"
Check out a TikTok of the cherry toilet brush in action.
Promising review: "This toilet brush makes me want to clean my toilet. It is so cute, exactly what I wanted, and works perfectly!! Fits nicely into my bathroom decor. It was delivered in perfect condition and I've used it three times now. If you're thinking about buying this...do it!" —Michelle Maroon
Get it from Amazon for $19.49.
20. A bicycle-shaped pizza cutter with *two* blades so you can do a ~wheely~ thorough job dividing up your slices (sorry).
Soho Kitchen is a small NYC-based business established in 2015 that specializes in quirky pizza products.
Promising review: "Cuts really nicely and super cute. My husband loved this idea as it looks just like his road bike!" —Courtney
Get it from Amazon for $19.95.
21. A unicorn head squirrel feeder because you know what the world needs?? More mildly terrifying TikToks and Instagram stories of hybrid creatures frolicking in your backyard. This is your task. Go forth, my friend.

Promising review: "This is both ridiculous and spectacular. It just might be my best Amazon impulse buy ever." —Meredith
Get it from Amazon for $21.92.

Handy Cute Art is a Florida-based Etsy shop that specializes in quirky home products.
Promising review: "These are the cutest ever! My daughter ate these guys [a lot] growing up. Great reminder gift of her fave snack food!" —Teresa A Houtz
Get a set of six from Handy Cute Art on Etsy for $10.20 (originally $12).
23. A set of space-saving nesting snail measuring spoons and cups that are as clever as they are cute — the snail heads on the handles to the cups are secretly measuring spoons, so you're covered for all ingredient needs, big and small.
Promising review: "These are adorable but they also nest perfectly, so really are practical. They are exactly the measurement they say they are and I am super happy with them. They make me smile every time I see them." —Love To Cook
Get it from Amazon for $17.95.
24. A corgi ice mold, which I think means you legally get to say you're drinking like ~royalty~. If nothing else then just imagine how much more adorable your iced coffee and cocktails are about to be with a lil' corgi butt popping out.
Promising review: "I think these corgi ice molds are adorable! The size of the tray is nicely designed and the ice is easy to remove without snapping off any parts of the figure. I'd love to see more dog breeds available as ice cubes; this is a great start though!" —aldera
Get it from Amazon for $14.98 (also available as a French bulldog or a dachshund!).
25. A pickle wine stopper perfect for anyone who is both a wine-o AND a brine-o, letting you preserve your favorite pinots in ~style~.
26. A set of book-shaped sponges, aka what happens when Cinderella and Belle collaborate on your birthday gift.
Promising review: "These sponges are adorable!! I've gotten so many compliments on them from friends and family. They're bright and look great along my sink. I haven't used them yet because I don't want to ruin them but they look like decent sponges. They're so pretty though you probably won't want to use them either! They would make a great housewarming gift!!" —EC
Get a set of three from Amazon for $10.
27. A "Gracula" garlic crusher, because you know what? If a 108-year-old vampire lurking moodily in the trees in the Pacific Northwest isn't going to fall in love with you and grant you immortality, one might as well make your life in the kitchen a little easier.
Promising review: "I love this little guy. I found him on a BuzzFeed list and had to have it as soon as I saw it! I’ve minced as many as five cloves in it in seconds. It’s a little tricky getting all of the garlic out once minced (I use a silicone basting brush to get most of it but I always use more than the recipe calls for anyway so it’s not a deal breaker). Cleanup is a breeze because he goes right in the dishwasher!" —Barbie
Get it from Amazon for $17.95.
28. A deeply unimpressed Smoko trash cat who stands not just for recycling, but recycling for the aesthetic. Trash Cat 2024!!
Get it from Urban Outfitters for $39.
29. A dino nugget pillow that is actually a mandatory purchase for anyone born or raised in the '90s, I don't make the rules. (But I do enforce and eat them.)
Promising review: "This dino chicken nugget pillow is a real Jurassic dream come true! It's the perfect cuddle companion for all the paleontologists-in-training or anyone with an insatiable appetite for comfort. Just be careful not to accidentally take a bite while you're napping, because it looks deliciously deceiving!" —LadyTee
Get it from Amazon for $11.99+ (available in three styles, two sizes, and in multipacks).
30. A Lego storage drawer for anyone who wants to get meta about where they organize their Legos. Reviewers also use this as quirky decor to hold other toys, knick knacks, and art supplies!

Get it from Amazon for $33.99+ (available in two sizes and 15 colors).
31. Plus a bag of edible gummy blocks so you can finally, literally taste the fruits of your Lego labor. This is also an adorable option for decorating cakes!
32. A Nessie bookmark so you'll always have a reading companion when you're swimming in the depths of a new favorite book (or need an emotional support creature when you're reading a harrowing one)!!
33. A UFO-shaped cat litter box complete with odor-absorbent pads to make sure the smell stays ~out of this world~. Aside from being cute as an intergalactic button, it has a rounded dome enclosure based on cats' natural instinct to turn for privacy.
Happy and Polly is a small business that specializes in delightfully quirky, highly functional products for pets.
Promising review: "I have four kitties who can be very picky when it comes to litter boxes. I hesitated ordering because of the cost but wow I wish I had bought this sooner! I was absolutely shocked how amazing the quality is (on top of how amazingly cute). I was worried if my kitties would like it having not used a completely enclosed litter box before. But all four LOVE it and literally fight each other to play in it. Worth every cent!!" —HR
Get it from Happy and Polly for $179.99.
