    24 Downright Adorable Things That Are Surprisingly Useful

    You'll be oohing and awe-ing at all of these.

    1. An animal-shaped ring holder that'll give you a place to stack your favourite baubles when you're not wearing them. It can hold up to eight rings and it has velvety padding on the bottom that'll save your countertops from scratches.

    2. A camera cover for anyone who takes their online privacy extra seriously. It'll fit over any device and it's a nicer alternative to the piece of tape you're currently using.

    3. A humidifier that'll add some much-needed moisture to your space. It looks like a little cup of noodles, so it'll look right at home on your kitchen counter.

    4. A little Nessie tea infuser that'll lurk at the bottom of your mug and fill it with a fresh and flavourful brew for you to enjoy. The long neck makes it easy to remove from your cup, and it'll separate into two pieces when you're ready to wash it.

    5. A pair of microfibre slippers that'll make cleaning your floors easier and WAY more entertaining. They're soft enough that you can use them on any floor, and they're reusable, so once you're done cleaning, you can throw them in the wash.

    6. A little slicer that'll help you quickly and safely cut through tape, paper, or plastic packaging. It has a small ceramic blade that'll never get dull or rust, and it's almost impossible to cut your fingers on.

    7. An animal-shaped door stopper that'll look like a little butler waiting for you by the door. It may look like a toy, but it's actually a nicer version of a simple wooden wedge.

    8. A pack of animal cable protectors that wind around the common stress points on your phone and laptop cords. These little tubes are a small investment that can repair and extend the life of all your charging cables.

    10. A pack of tiny sprout bookmarks that'll root themselves between whatever page you left off at when you're finishing studying. Their stems are long enough that they won't fall out and lose your page, but they're also thin enough that they won't ruin the integrity of the book's spine.

    11. A little penguin that you can fill with baking soda to keep your refrigerator smelling fresh as heck. It won't take up a lot of space, and it'll look way nicer in your fridge than that bright orange box you're currently using.

    12. A lid attachment that'll help you upcycle your old Mason jar into an adorable piggy bank. The mouth works as a coin slot and you can rest it on its side, using the legs to complete the piglet look.

    13. A Baby Yoda silicone skin for your AirPods case that'll not only protect it, but look adorable while doing so. It has a little cutout at the bottom, so you can charge your case without taking off the skin.

    14. A set of tiny heart-shaped erasers that are reminiscent of the edible candy necklaces and colourful friendship bracelets of the '90s. Also, they smell like strawberries!

    15. A ladybug vacuum cleaner that'll suck up small crumbs and dirt on your table, desk, or counter. It only works on dry particles, but it's a great device to have in your office if you eat lunch at your desk.

    16. A grass-shaped dish rack that's perfect for drying cups and bottles. It's super easy to clean and has a tray at the bottom to collect excess water, so it won't leak all over your counter top.

    19. A set of glass watering globes that'll keep your plant babies happy and hydrated, so you won't have to water them for a few days. They look like little happy-faced kitties and will add an adorable touch to your plants.
