1. A set of two ~zero gravity~ reclining porch chairs so you can toss those uncomfortable traditional folding chairs. These are so comfy you'll feel like you're floating, and they come with a pillow — perfect for naps — and a side table — perfect for snacks!
These chairs also fold up for easy transportation or storage.
Promising review: "Bought two of these chairs. They are perfect for spring/summer, easy to relax in, and the tray attachment lets me keep my drink and my book at my side. It’s easy to recline and the locking mechanism keeps you from moving when you don’t want to. I’ll be spending a lot of time in my chair this summer!" —John Wetmore
Get a set of two from Amazon for $99.99 (available in 24 colors/patterns).
2. A set of outdoor yard drink holders perfect for outdoor barbecues, picnics, or hangout sessions. You and your guests will now have a place to set down your drinks instead of just placing them in the grass and hoping no one accidentally kicks them over.
Promising review: "One of the best items I have ever bought for the beach and backyard! Whether playing cornhole or lounging in a chair, your drink is always clean and cold. No more sandy or dirty cans or bottles. It even holds your drink with a koozie on it!" —Amazon Customer

3. A tin of sweet, spring-themed cocktail sugar so you can create cocktails way more delicious than the boring vodka soda you'd have at a bar (and no, it won't cost you $15 for one drink).
BuzzFeed Shopping writer Emma Lord has been putting hers to good use: "I started putting this on my end-of-the-week whiskey drink and it is SO darn satisfying. I tried the citrus petals version, and it's got a light lemon, faint floral, and vaguely minty taste with its sweetness that just makes the whole experience a delight and a half. The container it comes in is actually quite wide, so what we did was pour lemon juice on the top half to prep the rim, and a bit of sugar in the bottom half to coat it. In other news, I am officially too fancy to exist."
Promising review: "I love this stuff. it adds a little magic to my drinks and the flavors are delicious. The citrus and petals is my favorite and really compliments fruity vodka drinks and lemonade. You just need to add a little moisture to the rim and this stuff sticks! Really fun to have around." —Lomarie66
Get it from Amazon for $7.80+ (available in seven flavors and a two-pack).
4. A tabletop fireplace with removable glass so you can enjoy making s'mores on those chilly spring nights, even if you don't have a backyard.

You can order this with or without the sand and rocks. The only thing that you will need to purchase separately is the 2.6-oz. gel fuel cans, which you can get from Amazon. The mini fireplace version (which doesn't come with rocks) uses a tealight candle only.
Promising review: "Soooo cute and easy to put together. We bought a clear spray to put on to protect it and because we actually really liked the look of the burned side. Boyfriend and I bought it to make s'mores for Valentine's. It was a perfect night in." —Bethany Schneider
Get it from 1 Man 1 Garage on Etsy for $31.20+ (available in three styles).

Promising review: "When I first took this out of the box, I thought 'oh boy I don’t know about this,' but I went ahead and hung it up outside to charge. When nighttime came, it started to light up and it is so neat. The colors gently change and none of them are muted. I am so happy with it." —Mom of 2
Get it from Amazon for $23.99 (also available in other shapes).
8. A gold watering can and mister perfect for anyone who is looking to upgrade from that gross old plastic container they found in their parents' garage. The beautiful gold is sure to stand out from the green of your plants.
Promising review: "This watering can is so easy to use, and it holds a lot more water than you would think by the size. I also love the cap that comes on the end of the spout — a great way to avoid spills!! Appreciate the pretty mister that comes with it, too. Both look very nice on the shelf where I house my plants in front of a window." —MC Phillips
Get it from Amazon for $26.99+ (also available in black).

13. Globe string lights to create the perfect, twinkly ambience that will keep the party going long after the sun has set.
Promising review: "Absolutely love the dim feature! These bulbs are more round than oval like others, but I love them. When they are off, there’s a cool yellow in them that offers a lovely aesthetic when not in use. Our pergola is wired for lights so we mounted them on and almost always dim them because the white pergola reflects the light. These lights have made our patio my new favorite spot in the house. My husband and I find the evenings so relaxing, we’ve literally grown closer together from spending time out under the lights in our new favorite place." —fishurmo

"This is one of those small things that just sparks joy whenever there's a sunny day. They are surprisingly heavy and sturdy. They're also packaged beautifully making them extremely giftable. I kept one and gave one to my mom who put it in her car. We're both very satisfied with the purchase and she must have mentioned how expensive they feel half a dozen times. One of those rare instances that a product that seems like a steal actually exceeds expectations." —Marissa C.
Get the two-pack from Amazon for $7.99.
17. Some adjustable magnetic grill lights so you can whip up some delicious grilled burgers at any time instead of having to wipe away the drool from your lip when you realize it's gotten too dark and you'll have to wait until tomorrow.
Promising review: "This was a surprise for my husband. He loves them. The lights are nice and bright and make grilling those last few things that didn't get finished before dark easy. He's also used them early in the morning when he's setting the smoker up before dawn. He's happy and finding them very useful. He especially loves the magnet on bottom so he can hang them off of so many things while he's busy and he can use the flexibility to shine them where he needs them. Very awesome and easy to use." —Holly Gomez
Get two from Amazon for $22.29.

Promising review: "I saw one of these in action at a friend's house like five years ago and thought it was just a made up memory, because making ice cream out of solely frozen fruit seems wild. But when I saw a TikTok about it I immediately went to Amazon and bought it. Literally this was the BEST decision of my life. I cannot believe still how amazing this thing is! It makes the creamiest, best-tasting fruit ice cream ever. It’s easy to take apart and clean, and super easy to use." —DMCKAY
Get it from Amazon for $38.91+ (available in six colors).
19. A double hammock perfect for a nice relaxing evening of swinging while the spring breeze gently blows on your face. I cannot imagine a better way to wind down after a long day of work.

They are great casual pants for work, and can be dressed up for the evening with a fancy shirt and heels. They are as comfortable as pajamas, without looking like it :)" —Nash
Get them from Amazon for $33.99+ (available in women's sizes XS–2XL, regular or short, and 32 colors).
21. A whimsical floral bedset so you can bring those beautiful spring florals inside with you and dream of running through fields of flowers.
This set includes one duvet cover and two pillowcases.
Promising review: "Very happy with the comforter and pillow cases. The comforter was not too heavy for late summer nights and will be perfect in the next two seasons. The pillow cases were a bit stiff when they first arrived but a cold water wash and dry on the line changed their texture for the better. They are softer with each wash. We wash in cold water to maintain colors longer. And the colors are worth maintaining. Soft yellows, greens, and grays. Just like the wildflowers around here. Not your grandmother’s heavy floral print, if your grandmother liked that sort of thing. Cheerfully brightens the room and keeps you comfortable while sleeping. Well made and will last quite a while with minimal care." —brose
Get it from Amazon for $59.99+ (available in four sizes).
22. A portable George Foreman grill perfect for grilling enthusiasts who don't have space for a standard size grill. It also runs on electricity so your neighbors won't even get mad at you for smoke or strong smells!
This comes with nonstick coating, the stand is removable, and you can adjust the temperature to five different settings.
Promising review: "This is the perfect grill for my apartment balcony. It was easy to clean and it's really nonstick. In comparison to other brands, this actually heats up the plate instead of heating lights. It cooked really well and was very easy to install. I would definitely recommend to purchase this if you have a small balcony." —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $99.99+ (available in two colors).
23. A lighted umbrella that will allow you to take control and stop letting the sunset dictate your plans. Keep enjoying that crisp spring air while you enjoy your dinner and great company (all while still actually being able to see).
Note that this includes just the umbrella, not the table!
Promising review: "I normally don’t like buying products like this sight unseen, but I’m very pleased with the look and especially with the solar lighting. We enjoyed a pleasant evening on the deck with just the right amount of ambient light tonight, and we are hopeful that it will prove to be durable." —Dee
Get it from Amazon for $61.19+ (available in 11 colors).
24. A chic pair of sunnies you can whip out now that the gray winter sky is behind us. For just $15 you can definitely grab multiple pairs to color coordinate with your fave spring 'fits.
Promising review: "These shades have become my new favorites! I love that I can put them on top of my head without my hair getting caught in them. They're a plastic frame but it's not flimsy or cheaply made and they look really stylish. They can be worn with sporty or dressy clothes as well. They block out the sun but I am still able to see well, so I love them when I'm driving. They come with a soft cloth for cleaning and a carrying bag to prevent scratches. They fit well without sliding off if I bend over and they don't feel heavy on the bridge of my nose. I have to say that they look better in person than in the photo and I'm really happy with my purchase." –LadyTsotsos_Beauty
Get them from Amazon for $15.99 (available in eight colors).
25. A cutesy cotton swab container shaped like a lotus that is a *massive* upgrade from the ugly cardboard box they come in.
Promising review: "This is cute, adorable, awesome, and useful! I use it daily, keep it out on the counter by my sink, and I enjoy it as much now as on the day I got it. It's useful as well as aesthetic. It's innovative and clever, and it makes an awesome gift. I gave one to a friend, and she likes it as much as I do. Remember this as the holidays arrive." —Wise Mind
Get it from Amazon for $8.99+ (available in three colors).
26. A tiered plant stand to hold all the plants you've suddenly acquired now that your green thumb has defrosted. This is not only a gorgeous way to show off your collection, but makes watering them a much easier task.

Get it from Amazon for $27.99+ (available in two sizes).
27. A collection of sheer socks so precious you'll be begging for shorts weather to stick around so you can show them off with every outfit.
Promising review: "I’m so glad to have bought them! Each pair is so unique and goes so well with Docs and loafers. I say the quality is pretty good! The mesh feels stronger than nylons, but they are still delicate. So as long as you don’t scratch or hook them with sharp things, they should be fine." —Zoe
Get a five-pack from Amazon for $14.99+ (available in four different sets).
28. A pastel maxi dress with adorable puff sleeves and a wide variety of gorgeous colors to bring out your inner princess. You can also switch up the vibe by wearing the sleeves on or off your shoulders.
Psst — this is very comparable for the more expensive ~Nap Dresses~ that have gained popularity in the last year!
Promising review: "Ethereally beautiful!! This dress is absolutely LOVELY. It’s so lightweight, breezy, and comfortable. It fits perfectly, and the bodice has plenty of stretch so if you’re in between sizes, you could go either way. I actually sized down because I wanted to wear it on the shoulders and didn’t want the sleeves slipping off, but I didn’t have an issue with that at all. It’s wrinkly when it arrives, but a quick steam makes it look so much nicer and more expensive than it is. I got the sage green color and it’s not see-through, it’s beautiful. (I actually returned it in favor of a color I thought I’d wear more, but if green is your fave then you’ll love it). Get this dress!" —Laura
Get it from Amazon for $36.99 (available in women's sizes XS-XL and 27 colors).
29. A unique lavender lemonade mix for a tasty upgrade to those boring ol' lemonade stands. Spring fruits + floral flavors = one heckuva delicious drink.
Norwood Lavender Farm is an Oregon-based small business established in 2014 that specializes in lavender goods, including skincare, teas, cake mixes, room sprays, and gifts.
Each of these packets makes about eight servings of lemonade, but it can also be used to flavor frostings, sauces, glazes, and salad dressings.
Promising review: "This is delicious! It's the perfect balance of lavender to lemonade. I also like how fine the mix is because it dissolves with just a few quick stirs or shakes, even in very cold water. Definitely recommend!" —watermelonsweetie
Get it from Norwood Lavender Farm on Etsy for $15.95.
30. And a sugar-free spicy margarita infusion pouch to add a little ~spice~ to your adult beverage. This kit is full of spices, herbs, and dehydrated fruits and veggies so you can create an unbelievably simple, delicious, and *sugar-free* cocktail.

Promising review: "Exceeded our expectations! Subtle but noticeable jalapeño bite that blends very well with the citrus and pineapple. We mixed with Fresca and a salted rim. Will buy again. And maybe even try infusing with vodka." —Meghan

Promising review: "I liked these when I tried them on, after wearing them for a few hours, I ordered four more pair. These are perhaps the most comfortable thing I have ever worn, that includes a pretty awesome cashmere lounge set. They looked cute running errands and were so perfect for chores of all kind, including outside on a hot winter day (gotta love Florida). I have made a lot of Amazon purchases (a whole lot, lots of lots), and these are definitely in my top five." —Kindle Customer
Get it from Amazon for $30.99 (available in women's sizes XS–5XL and 15 colors).
32. An inflatable lounger that'll absolutely upgrade sunbathing into a luxurious experience fit for royalty. Lay down flat and grab some shut eye, or sit on it like a couch with your friends while you debrief from the day.
To inflate, just move it through the air and trap the air by closing the sleeve opening before you're done moving. Make sure to keep the opening closed until you start your next inflating movement. I've always seen people doing a little running motion or a figure eight with it to fill it up with air quicker. I think it definitely requires a bit of trial and error but once you've done it a couple of times you'll get the hang of it!
Promising review: "I wanted to hang out in the beach and just lay down for a couple of hours. I tried foldable chairs but they were too heavy. I tried the Wekapo and it was the best solution. It packs to a small size, it's lightweight enough, and it elevates me enough from the sand." —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $39.98 (available in 16 colors).
33. A handwoven rattan bag, which is about to become the only bag you reach for this spring. The simple, yet intricate, design will match beautiful with all your spring 'fits.

Promising review: "Gorgeous artificial flowers!! Perfect for those of us who are allergy-riddled floral enthusiasts. I use them for seasonal and holiday decorating, as well as homemade gifts for my family and friends. I love the careful attention to detail, particularly how random leaves appear to have 'dirt' as if freshly picked right from the garden. Really appreciate a quality allergy-free floral option." —Jen M
Get a set of 20 from Amazon for $18.95+ (available in 48 colors and a 28-pack).
35. A drip-free pitcher with a fruit infuser because sometimes you want a fun drink that doesn't require much effort or ingredients. You'll be able to infuse with so many flavors (berries! cucumbers! lemon!), you may never drink boring plain water again!
Promising review: "Love this pitcher! Bought it in June 2013 and I still use it on a weekly basis. The filter slots are perfect for keeping the lemon seeds from floating out and since the lid also has slots, I love to throw extra cucumber in the pitcher to float freely and don’t have to worry about it pouring into my glass 👌🏽Holding up great, no tiny cracks in the pitcher that tend to happen over time. Still looks exactly the same from the first day I got it." —Sovay
Get it from Amazon for $21.17+ (available in 11 styles).

The screen is 120 inches and made of an anti-crease material. It also comes with brackets and ropes for mounting purposes.
Promising review: "This screen is perfect for our use. We bought it for outdoor movie nights whether being on the garage door, in the backyard, camping, or inside the garage. It’s very easy to install with no wrinkles and shows a great picture. I’ve attached pictures that show how well I can still see the picture despite being surrounded by 7,000 Christmas lights in close vicinity." —Hallie H.
Get it from Amazon for $22.13.

Promising review: "Dress is very versatile. I purchased the yellow color and was able to dress it up with heels for a wedding – my cousin owns it in black and paired it with a jean jacket and sandals. I'll likely purchase in more colors. You could also wear it strapless I would think." —HEEP
Get it from Amazon for $42.99 (available in women's sizes S–XXL and 31 colors/patterns).
