    Just 34 Fun And Quirky Things That Might Make Your Day

    Including an espresso martini candle, a color-shifting mushroom light, and a Lego flower bouquet that'll add a little ~pizzazz~ to your life.

    1. A dimmable sad duck night-light — honestly, same. Anytime you want to do some late night studying or reading, this soft-lit little dude's got your back. And on your roughest days, at least you can look down at him and know you're not alone. 🫶

    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

    2. A plug-in color-shifting mushroom light that you'll simply adore if nature brings you serenity. Just lay back and let its gentle light help you doze off into Dreamland, where you're a Pixie Hollow fairy.

    Promising review: "I LOVE this night-light. It's in my bathroom and is a lovely addition. It turns off the second the lights go on, which is nice because I don't have to worry about accidentally leaving it on. Super cute and the little itty-bitty lighting element does a good job lighting, just enough so I don't have to turn the main lights on in the middle of the night." —1Thand

    Check out a TikTok of the rain cloud diffuser in action.

    Promising review: "I love this thing. I have anxiety and insomnia, and I need background noise to function/sleep. This little desktop fountain is SO SOOTHING, both aesthetically and the sound of the little raindrops. If I’m in the room with it, it’s probably on. If you love the sound of rain this is for you. Because I’m paranoid and I want this to last, I run it with plain distilled water and I have not used essential oils with it even though they say it’s fine. It’s very dry here right now, and I still only have to top up the water every few days, even with it running daily. It’s a solid 12/10 from me." —Violet

    Promising review: "These smell amazing. I have an en suite bathroom and they fragrance my entire room with a subtle calming aroma. I drop it in the tub towards the back where the outer streams hit, turn my shower on the hottest setting, close the curtains and wait until I smell it. This gives your water a chance to heat up and your steamer time to melt. By the time I hop in the shower is full of relaxing steam. These are great and I can tell a difference in my state of mind when I just take a moment to breathe and enjoy the scent." —Kindle Customer

    Promising reviews: "I am over the moon about this product! I wanted to be able to enjoy the sunlight and be able to see the day from my vantage point - which this product goes above and beyond in accomplishing. My favorite part is how aesthetically pleasing it it. As other users have noted and documented in photos, you'll receive a daily dose of rainbows when the sun hits the decal. Application took a fair amount of time at first to a novice like me, but once I applied a few layers, everything flowed like a breeze. I don't know how it will hold up over time, but it's affordable and *pounds fists* I JUST LOVE THIS STUFF!!!" —Rachel Chess

    Promising review: "I saw this while browsing, and at first I thought it was a real lens (until I saw the price). I clicked, and had to laugh because it incorporated my husband's two loves — coffee and photography! I got it for him as part of his Christmas gifts, and he loves it.

    Promising review: "I have found that I like using one of these little critters on the edge of my tea cup when I make hot tea. I just wrap the string attached to the teabag around the snail and it keeps everything from falling back into my tea to float around until I fish it back out. I like that each one has a different color and I keep them all handy to grab, as they fit really nice on the heavy wire of my dish rack with my other tea accessories when not in use.
