4. A levitating planter you'll wanna snag and plonk in your entryway if you're fishing for some extra "OoOh!"s amongst your plant parent pals.

Promising review: "Very useful! I love that the cup is removable so if you have one of those giant Chick-Fil-A ketchup cups, it can sit within the holder without the added cup, but a smaller sauce like from Wendy’s can sit inside the additional cup so it won’t fall through." —catherine
Get a set of two from Amazon for $10.90 (available in four colors).

11. Or! A cuddly U-shaped pillow so you can take off on your next adventure without the embarrassment of accidentally nodding off on your plane buddy's shoulder.
12. A set of four shimmering pots of edible glitter to help set your intentions for the rest of the year. Intentions being that you will now be the hostess with the most...sparkling desserts and beverages anyone has ever seen.
13. A touchless stationary vacuum that'll transport your sweeping abilities into the year 3008 — and ta-da! actually make the whole activity feel like less of a chore. This zippy thing sucks up any debris that comes close to it, so you can say "see ya!" to the archaic days of awkwardly bending down with your dustpan to gather crumbs...only to lose half of what you swept.
An indicator light will turn on to let you know that the canister is full, and then you can remove the canister and dump the debris in the trash.
Promising review: "I saw it on TikTok and knew I had to have one. I hate cleaning but get annoyed with the clumps of dog hair and bits of things on my kitchen floor. I usually just vacuum my tile with the vacuum, which is a pain. This thing is so easy to just sweep things into, and it sucks them right up. Sure, it's more expensive than my actual vacuum, but I've only had it three days and have used it two times." —Amazon Customer

14. A pack of bold abstract earrings, because even though you're embodying the new you, it doesn't make chatting on awkward Zoom calls any easier...so avoid the small talk and let your accessories do all the talking instead.

Promising review: "This bodysuit fits like a glove! I was thrilled to be able to wear it comfortably all night and not be concerned about anything. I have a longer torso and am not always able to wear bodysuits like this. I did wear some reusable gel petals to cover my nipples, but for being backless and not having a bra on, I thought it looked amazing!" —Sean Brooks
