It comes with a remote that activates eight light settings.
Get it from Simons for $19.
2. An alarm clock that simulates a sunrise, if you're trying to wake up more naturally. It features seven soothing sounds to start your morning to (or you can just pick your favourite radio station).

3. A ring light that'll help you take some bomb selfies. Reviewers say it's great for live-streaming, since there are two phone mounts that let them record and read the chat at the same time.

4. A set of sheer curtains that'll actually let in some natural sunlight during the day. Reviewers say that they still give them enough privacy at night, especially when paired with an LED light strip around their window frame.

5. A mushroom nightlight that'll turn your room into an ethereal garden. It'll cycle through seven different colours and adjust its brightness based on the room lighting, so you can leave it on 24/7.

7. Or a set of lights that'll transform the mirror you already have into the vanity of your dreams. The lights are dimmable, so you won't be blinded if you use it right after waking up.

8. An LED desk lamp that'll let you actually see what you're working on. It also doubles as a power strip, so you won't need to run your charger around your WFH obstacle course to plug it in.

9. A curtain of lights that'll instantly turn any room into a magical and cozy sanctuary. Reviewers love using it as a decorative backdrop for special events and photos.

10. A pack of microfibre cloths that'll clean all the gunk and build-up off your windows so the sun can actually shine through. They're streak and lint-free, so they'll also be great for cleaning your car or countertops.

11. An LED neon light that'll add a soft, dreamy glow. There are over 20(!!!) different styles, from a lightening bolt to a palm tree, so you'll definitely be able to find one that fits your aesthetic.
12. A pack of motion-activated lights that are incredibly versatile — they’ll do anything from helping you find what you’re looking for to saving you from tripping down the stairs.

13. An LED shower head that'll turn your bathroom into a nightclub. It has a three-level filter that'll remove chlorine and other contaminants to leave your skin soft and clean.

14. A light therapy lamp that'll help you combat the winter blues as the days become shorter. It mimics the brightness of the sun (but you can adjust the brightness if it's a little too strong).

15. A picture lamp that'll transform any painting or portrait into an expensive-looking art installation. Reviewers recommend pairing it with a smart plug to easily turn it on and off from your phone or Alexa.

16. A table lamp that'll cycle through brightness levels with just a tap. It's battery powered for up to 48 hours, so you can bring it with you if you need to make a midnight bathroom trip.

17. A customizable LED lightbox, so that you can display your favourite quote to brighten both your room and your spirits.

18. A glass bottle lantern that'll look great on a window sill or bedside table. Its warm glow is less harsh than overhead lighting, so you won't burn your retinas before bed.

The battery-powered strip of LED lights is built into the bottle and can be turned on or off with a simple click of the cap.
Get it from Simons for $15. Available in three bottle colours.
19. A minimalistic standing lamp that'll illuminate your entire room without taking up too much space. It'll project light upwards onto your ceiling, so it'll fill in any gaps that your overhead lighting misses.

20. A roll of LED strip lights that'll level up any room in your house from your bedroom to your kitchen. The lights are self-adhesive, making them easy-peasy to install.
21. A set of crystal pendants that'll catch the sun and fill your room with little rainbows. Reviewers say the way they're cut makes the light that it catches look like it's shimmering.

It comes with chains and buckles so you can hang them by a window.
Get a pack of four from Amazon Canada for $18.88+. Also available in a pack of six.
22. A marquee letter light that'll simulate the glowing lights of Broadway. It has a slot on the back, so you can hang it up on your wall.

23. This jar lantern with a sweet little message that we could all hear more often. Reviewers say when it's lit, it looks like there are little fireflies in the jar.

Get it from Simons for $4.99.
24. A light-up speaker that'll create a light show to the beat of your favourite tune. It’s got a built-in mic, so you can even use it to answer phone calls.
