1. Totally sweet gummy bear earrings that'll serve as perfect ear candy, even if your orthodonture prevents you from enjoying the real thing (I feel you).
They're from a Black-owned, LA-based shop that specializes in fun and quirky earrings!
Get them from InsomniaCraftShop on Etsy for $6 (available in nine colors).
2. A huge mood of a T-shirt starring a very sweet kitty who, like you, also feels the urge to hurl their laptop out the window at least once a week.
This artist makes some of the absolute cutest things EVER, from tees to keyrings to pins to stickers.
Get it from Crowlines for $30 (available in unisex sizes S–5XL).
3. A pretty pastel "mental health matters" mug with an important message and the cutest brain I've ever seen (and I didn't even know it was possible to make brains cute).
This Minnesota-based shop is full of cute, irreverent, and social justice-inspired goodies.
Get it from BitchinDesignCo on Etsy for $13.59.
4. The cutest idea for a pop-culture candle set I can possibly imagine, inspired by the century's greatest (fictional) girl group. "Dynamos! Dynamites! Sleep all day, and wapoo all night!"
Each votive is inspired by a different dynamic Dynamo lady: Donna's smells like sea salt and pink sand, Rosie's like rose honey and filo, and Tanya's like Aegean lemon zest. Mamma mia, lay all these scents on me.
Promising review: "I’m obsessed with the Dynamo collection, just like every other collection I’ve bought from Bijou! My favorite one is Rosie but they’re all amazing. They burn cleanly and last forever. The smells are very strong but not overpowering. Love!!" —Lauren Dunn
Get a set of three from Bijou Candles for $72.
5. An aww-dorable Eeveelution pride pin flying your flag in the cutest way possible and that you'll want to wear on your jacket or backpack 24/7/365, long after Pride Month is over.
6. A pack of fun and random stickers featuring everything from cat butts to anthropomorphic waffles that'll make your water bottle or laptop instantly unboring.
This woman-owned biz makes truly awesome and adorable stationery and paper goods!

9. A squee-worthy kiwi enamel pin for fans of both the bird and the fruit.

12. A handmade clay pastel rainbow brooch to make your jean jacket approximately a zillion times more adorable (and Pride-event-ready) in seconds flat.

Get it from Feelmore for $5.25 (available in 18 messages).
15. A gorgeous, handmade, sunrise-inspired shelf that'll bring a smile to your face every morning when you get up and grab your essentials off of it.
This Northampton, Massachusetts-based, family-owned business makes wood and metal accessories that are seriously swoon-worthy.
Get it from WildFancyDesign on Etsy for $42 (available in two colors and also in a planter shelf version here).

20. A spoopy witch frog patch to add frighteningly cute flair to anything you iron it onto.
This QTPOC-owned, Toronto-based shop stocks spoop-tacular patches, prints, and accessories. Basically, if Nico di Angelo from Percy Jackson discovered Etsy, I'm pretty sure this would be his favorite shop.
Get it from Grrrlspells on Etsy for $8.59.
21. A toy cellphone shaped like a mythical creature your kiddo will look even cuter than they usually do (is that possible?!?) when they play with. Also, hello Apple? Gonna need the next iPhone model to come in unicorn.
It lights up and plays sounds and songs when your cutie hits the buttons. The batteries are included, too, so it's ready to play right away!
Get it from Lockwood for $13.95.
