    10. Some snazzy Echo Frames so your personal assistant, Alexa, will always be readily available to make calls, set reminders, update your to-do lists, read you the news, play podcasts, and control your smart home. Wow.

    11. A Boie face scrubber you can use to gently exfoliate and cleanse your face (ICYMI: that washcloth you use several times a week is a hotbed for nasty bacteria).

    12. A gooseneck electric kettle that can boil water in as little as three minutes, which means you'll no longer have to stand over your stove, half asleep, anxiously waiting until your old-school tea pot starts whistling.

    13. A reusable tote perfect for grocery getting, weekend travels, bringing your lunch to work — I'm sure you've got a good use for it.

    14. And a set of wooden coat hooks that'll finally give you a place to hang all those reusable totes you've been collecting over the years (that door handle in your kitchen just isn't gonna cut it anymore).

    15. A set of glass meal-prep containers guaranteed to have you serving up some delish, Insta-worthy creations week after week.

    18. A water carafe to keep at your bedside that'll be a lifesaver when you wake up completely parched. Instead of being frustrated, you'll just sit up gently and enjoy a refreshing glass of H20 from the comfort of your bed. Ahhhhh.

    23. A reusable bamboo cutlery set that'll give ya all the utensils you could ever need (fork, knife, spoon, chopsticks, straw, cleaning brush, toothbrush, AND carrying pouch) to eat mindfully on the go and avoid unnecessary plastic consumption.

    24. An alarm clock designed to gently wake you in the morning with a calming light that mimics the sunrise. BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP, is so last year. 🌅⏰

    28. A stress relief candle made with 100% soy wax and infused with lavender oil, chamomile, and bay leaf. Who's up for a little R&R?

    29. A David Rose-inspired tumbler that's not only a handy vessel for all your bevvies (whatever those might be), but is sure to get some good laughs from friends and family as they nervously ponder whether or not they should be talking to you at the moment.

    30. A skin softening cream specifically formulated to protect, soften, and moisturize dry skin. It's made with entirely plant-based ingredients like shea butter, aloe vera, cranberry seed oil, and argan oil, and might just be the solution to your dry skin you've been looking for.
