A three-tiered tabletop fountain for a more zen at-home workspace. A warm glow makes for a cozy environment, plus this mimics the ~tranquility~ that is the sound of flowing water — the stress that is an email ping will now be replaced by the sounds of nature instead. Huzzah.

Promising review: “I’ve tried several fountains so far. This one is awesome, the pump is quiet, as is the water, it simply provides a really nice environmental impact on my workspace. I run it up to eight hours in a day, use distilled water only and clean it periodically, and it’s running just like new after several weeks. Not all of the fountains that I’ve tried work quite so well, I’m impressed and happy with this purchase.” —I’m Rod, that’s all

Promising review: “This little thing is awesome! I have a really small house (820 sq ft.) and one of the wall heaters in our bedroom went out. The lows at night here have been down in the 20s and we needed a heater fast, so I ordered this one. I didn’t expect it to do much because it was so cheap, but it literally can heat my whole house. I put it in my living room and it kept the house comfortable. I put it in the bedroom and it got so hot we had to cut it down! It looks really nice, and I love that it has a safety switch on the bottom. If it gets knocked over it will automatically cut off and that’s great if you have kids or pets.” —Sarah

Amazon

Promising review: “I am picky when it comes to jewelry. I hate when cheap jewelry changes colors, starts fading, or finish rubs off at the smallest bit of wear. These for real look like they cost way more. I have seen identical gold hoops for five times times more than the cost of these. I actually first discovered these through several instagram influencers and was shocked they were so cheap haha I immediately bought them in gold and silver. I honestly would still buy them if the price was double what they cost.” —Chloe

Promising review: “These sheet masks are so light and thin, but so effective with their essence. The essence isn’t sticky at all and there’s so much of it which you can apply to your neck, hands, knees, etc. for deep moisturizing. These don’t have any irritating ingredients that can trigger sensitive skin and acne. I highly recommend these sheet masks — I stock up on them, honestly.” —Yasmine V.

Amazon, amazon.com

Promising review: “My 10-year-old son has recently found interest in drawing comics. He came home one day from school with several pages of notebook paper all doodled with comic style layout. I immediately went to Amazon in search of a doodle pad for comic artists, and found this! I am so impressed with the paper quality and the layout design. My son ABSOLUTELY LOVES his new comic book. He has spent hours making stories with his friend and I am one happy Mom to have landed such an awesome find.” —Danielle W.

A gift assortment of Popbar hot chocolate sticks to upgrade their favorite winter beverage and holiday tradition into something slightly more luxe than Swiss Miss (no shade to Swiss Miss). 10/10 would swirl this around in my coffee, too.

A whiskey glass for anyone who has still not recuperated from the absolute emotional rollercoaster that was the Game of Thrones series finale. I know it’s been a while now. But still.


amazon.com, amazon.com

This has a weighted base and is dishwasher-safe, which basically makes it the perfect whiskey glass.

Promising review: “My old favorite whiskey glass (a souvenir from a distillery tour)got broken, and with it my heart. How could I ever enjoy my bourbon again? My wife bought this one for me and my spirits (pun intended) were lifted once again. This glass is handsome, well-crafted, a perfect size, and best of all a marriage between two of my loves: bourbon and Game of Thrones. I highly recommend this glass as a gift for the whiskey aficionado in your life.” —Dr. Jerry

Get it from Amazon for $21.96.

A pack of 60 multi-colored scrunchies because work from home life means less shampoo being used, aka ponytails are being rocked and rolled. These are fab because they won’t pull or tug at their mane (unlike those dreadful black hair ties).

Promising review: “Perfect! Purchased these as a last-minute Christmas gift for my daughter and they arrived super fast. Every single one is perfect, the velvet is soft and they are well made. My daughter absolutely loves them and there is literally a color to go with everything. The colors range from some darks, medium tones, pastels and even some brights. Highly recommend, very very pleased with this purchase!!” —Lisa S

A Torani pumpkin pie sauce because PSL season is fantastic, but fleeting (and requires leaving the house). From now on, they can top off their morning cup of caffeine with this delicious treat and avoid having to change out of their pajamas.

Promising review: “Nailed it! This is the perfect syrup (yeah, I know it’s technically called a sauce) for making pumpkin spice lattes. Look no further. This is what you need. After trying another brand’s syrup and being terribly disappointed, I decided to try this based on reviews…and BAM! This is the one! Tastes similar to what coffeehouses use to make their pumpkin spice lattes, which is exactly what I’ve been looking for. Love it!” —Tara Jacobs

A sequin pillow cover that reveals one Prison Mike. Honestly, this needs no further introduction other than any fan of The Office would probably cry upon receiving it.


amazon.com

Promising review: “This was the hit of the office white elephant gift exchange. Wrapped it up in a fancy box and flipped the sequins so you could only see the gold. The receivers face was priceless when she discovered prison mike and we all laughed about it all night. Perfect for any Office lover, great conversation piece, and surprisingly well made for the price.” —mb756

Dishwasher- and microwave-safe holder stands ideal for soft and hard shell tacos. These babies are perfect for messy eaters, keep toppings in place, *and* make it easier to strategically place said toppings. No more chomping into a section that is all guac, nothing else.


amazon.com, amazon.com

Promising review: “I’ve had restaurants deliver tacos to the table with these stands before and never thought of getting them to have at home until a recent Taco Tuesday. These taco holders made everything so much easier when building and serving tacos and they fit right on the dinner plate. Two great things: they are microwave-safe for those who may want a little more meltiness to their cheese and can be used to serve two to three tacos depending on which side you use.” —Amanda L. Marron
