My skin gets extremely dry in the winter. I live in the midwest, so for about four straight months, I'm forced to endure snow, wind, and subzero temperatures. And yet, for some reason, I continue to live here. This cool-mist humidifier at least helps to make the air within my house less dry and I wake up each morning feeling more hydrated and less like The Crypt Keeper.

via: Amazon

I work from home, and for the past few months, my workspace has felt very humdrum. I was wondering how to jazz it up when I stumbled upon this USB fan on Amazon. My office also tends to get very hot since it's surrounded by windows and the sun shines directly into it, so I knew this would be perfect. I bought it immediately, and it's so incredibly cool that it still distracts me from my work sometimes.

This Flameless Arc Lighter That Made Me Throw Out My Matches

I'm obsessed with making my home as cozy as possible, so I like to have at least one candle burning at all times.

Not only does it look straight out of a science fiction movie, but it's much safer than traditional lighters and matches due to the unique flameless design.

This Thawing Tool That Makes Me More Confident In The Kitchen

I've always had a phobia of defrosting meat. I get worried that I'll somehow do it wrong and give everyone I'm cooking for salmonella, which would put a pretty big damper on a dinner party.

This Smart Plug That Automates Your Home

via: Amazon

My husband is obsessed with pretty much any type of technology that seems futuristic. As you might expect, this means that we own a lot of useless junk that looks cool but does practically nothing. This Smart Plug is not one of them. We just plug it into an outlet, plug a device into it that we'd like to be automated, and suddenly we can control everything in our house from our phone.

This Headphone Jack Adapter That I Recommend To Everyone

via: Amazon

I was so excited when I upgraded to the new iPhone...until I realized that I couldn't charge my phone and listen to my headphones at the same time.

I love this thing so much that I've bought it for three of my family members who also hate this little annoyance.

This Dog Selfie Stick That's Ridiculously Clever

via: Amazon

My dog is gorgeous. Everywhere we go people compliment her on her pretty coloring. In fact, people get much more excited about her than they do about my 8-month-old son when we're out on a walk. The problem is, she's so high-energy that every photo I take of her is blurry. This dog selfie stick was basically made for my crazy pooch. I can finally document her good looks!

This Mini Crock-Pot That Upgrades Your Work Lunch

Not that I have an infant son, I'm much more worried about germs that I used to be.

This screen cleaner erases smudges in an instant and sanitizes in one quick step.

My nephews are 7 and 9, and they're completely obsessed with video games. So, in an effort to buy their love through gift-giving, I bought them this DIY video game kit for Christmas this year.

Sorry-not-sorry big bro!

This Oil Infuser That Makes You Look Like A Pro Chef

via: Amazon

I don't feel very confident about my skills in the kitchen, so whenever I find a product that makes it look like I know what I'm doing I snatch it up. This oil infuser was one of those products, and I've used it multiple times per week ever since it arrived. I just shove some rosemary, sage, or whatever else I'm in the mood for into the bottle, fill it up with oil, let it sit overnight, and the next day I have infused oil. I LOVE this thing.

This Mini Wireless Speaker That's Oh-So Cute

I never really cared about how good the camera was on my phone until I had my son.

I'm not exaggerating when I say that this lens set makes my phone pictures look like they were taken by a professional photographer.

This Fun Pet Water Fountain That's Purrrfect For Your Feline Friends

via: Amazon

I don't have a cat, and although I don't consider myself to be a "cat person", I have no beef with cats, and usually enjoy their company whenever I come in contact with one. My friend Stacy, on the other hand, probably prefers the company of cats to humans. She has three, and they're her furry children. I got her this cat water fountain for her birthday last year and she hasn't stopped raving about it since.

These Underwater LED Lights That Scream "PAR-TAY"

I'll admit it: I'm not a very skilled party-planner. When my BFF Kate asked me to be the maid-of-honor for her wedding, I was both flattered and instantly terrified. What if the bachelorette party was a huge snooze? I decided to start doing research months ahead of time so everything would be perfect. These underwater LED lights caught my eye instantly, and I knew they'd be a fun addition to a hotel hot tub. And boy, was I right. In fact, these lights are pretty much the only thing I can remember from that night...

This Wine Aerator Spout That Makes Cheap Wine Taste Expensive

My husband and I have a weekly scheduled "wine night" every Friday night, and while it's fun to broaden our horizons and try new types of wine, we refuse to spend more than $15 bucks on a bottle. This wine aerator spout not only makes it easier to pour, but it aerates it at the same time, which makes it taste twice as good as it usually would.

These Neoprene Bottle Covers That Keeps Your Beer Cozy

via: Amazon

Last summer, I went to a backyard BBQ party and my friend handed me a beer wearing one of these nifty bottle covers. At first, I was confused. "Is this beer wearing a wet suit?" I asked, only half-joking. It was actually a Thermal Coolie, which kept my drink icy cold throughout the entire party and helped me to remember which one was mine. I bought a set for myself the minute we got home.

This Pirate Beer & Wine Bottle Opener That's Arr-mazing

via: Amazon

A few weeks ago I decided to jazz up wine night with this fun pirate bottle opener. And while it's just as hilarious as I assumed it would be, I was pleasantly surprised by how high-quality it is. We love how he looks like he has a little peg leg after we remove a cork from a bottle! I've already decided to get a few for my wine-loving friends as gifts.

This Electric Kettle That Heats Up Lightning Fast

via: Amazon

I gave up coffee when I was pregnant, and by the end of my pregnancy, I was drinking five cups of green tea per day.

This electric kettle heats up in about five seconds so I don't have to wait for a delicious hot beverage.

This Ultrasonic Humidifier and Essential Oil Diffuser That Looks Ultra Chic

via: Amazon

I received this humidifier and essential oil diffuser at my baby shower and, at first, didn't realize how this would help me care for my baby. "It's not for him, it's for you," my mother-in-law said. It wasn't until I was completely sleep-deprived and stressed out with a 3-month-old that I realized what an amazing product it is. Now I put it in my bathroom while taking a bath in the dark whenever I need a bit of self-care. (Which is always.)

These Oven Rack Shields That Prevent Painful Burns

via: Amazon

I'm extremely clumsy, and I can't tell you how many times I've horribly burned myself while taking something out of the oven.

This Dishwasher Basket That Protects Lightweight Items

Handwashing baby bottles takes a long, long time. But on the other hand, washing them in the dishwasher can be risky, since all the little pieces can fall down into the bottom and melt.

When I first gave up coffee and switched to tea, there was a period of time where everyone I knew just started buying me tea and tea-related products.

This tea infuser was one of those products, and I now refuse to use any other non-squirrel-shaped infuser ever again. Totally worth the barely closing kitchen drawers!
