Promising review:

2. These faux leather bags are small but will fit all the essentials. Each bag has an external unzippered compartment and a main zippered one. It can hold your smartphone, keys, wallet, headphones, passport, tickets, cash, credit cards, and lipstick. You can also wear it differently if you adjust its straps to the desired length.

You can wear these bags as a crossbody, shoulder purse, or wristlet. They come in the widest range of gorgeous and fun-to-look-at designs.

Promising review:

• These fit your phone (just don’t use a bulky case), cards, gum, and lipstick — perfect for concerts or to take on a walk — just a few essentials only. The designs are adorable! I bought several because they are sooooo cute. — Blissful Spirit

4. If you prefer your phone to be goofy, here is a realistically-looking cheeseburger phone. It is very handy, too. It has a redial call function, the tone or pulse is switchable, and it comes with an LED in-use indicator for your convenience.

The whole cheeseburger — a bun, cheese, and ground chuck patty — is made from plastic. It can be an especially great gift for a fan of the movie “Juno.”

Promising review:

• I use this phone to buzz the carry-out delivery drivers into my apartment building. They get a kick out of it when they see me using a hamburger phone to let them in. It’s catching on... I helped my next-door neighbor hook one up the other day, and now other neighbors want them. Too cute! — Janice

5. Keep your plants hydrated with these magnificent watering globes. They automatically deliver the right amount of water. All you need to do is fill the globes with water, then flip them and press them into the soil.

There’ll be no more over- or under-watering your plants! The bulbs will slowly release the ideal portion of water into the soil. Your herbs and flowers will be highly appreciative of this new watering system.

Promising review:

• You can tell these are handmade because they are all slightly different in size. I think they are beautiful and complement my plants and/or their pots well. It also made me realize how some plants really need a lot more water than others, just by noticing the water levels in each. — EC

6. This handmade box, looking like those antique books stacked together, is a cool way to put out tissues. It is made of quality materials and beautifully painted. You can open the top directly, which makes it easy to remove or add tissues.

The product is made of environmentally friendly wood. It is strong, durable, and nicely textured. This product will definitely add a stylish, retro vibe to your space.

Promising review:

• Nice, sturdy craftsmanship with an elegant and classy look. — KT

7. This colorful wireless computer combo of a keyboard and a mouse is eye candy. The color will not fade over time and will lift your spirits every time you type something. It is easy and comfortable to install, use, and clean.

This keyboard will give you a completely different feel from what you’re used to. Round keycaps produce a lovely sound similar to an old-fashioned typewriter. The keycaps, all 104 of them, are removable for easier maintenance.

Promising review:

• I work in a medical office, and EVERY PERSON who walks in comments on my keyboard and asks to touch it. It is cute, feels so nice, and makes a satisfying noise when you type. The buttons stick occasionally, but it’s easily avoidable if you type fast and don’t linger on one key too long. Sometimes the larger buttons like backspace, shift, enter, etc. don’t activate because you have to hit the center and not just on the side, but for the most part, there was barely any learning curve for typing on this. I type every day for my job, and I still get about 60 wpm. I actually did a typing test for this review and got 49 wpm, and that’s because the T key got stuck!! Haha. I always do badly on those tests, though, and I can type much faster when I’m typing freehand. — Victoria Jackson

8. Each one of these handmade cups without handles is unique. They are pretty portable and a great fit for most coffee machines and car cup holders.

The maintenance is effortless; these art-deco cups are dishwasher-safe. They are also microwave-friendly.

Promising review:

• This is just what I was looking for. It looked smaller than 12 oz when I first looked at it right out of the box. If you are looking for something to hold 12 oz. and still have room for cream, it just won’t hold it.
  I filled it up to 10 oz with my Keurig and only had a half-inch room, which works for me. I usually only drink 8 oz. at a time. I will be ordering different colors in the future. I love that it is dishwasher and microwave-safe, which is a huge plus for me. — Jennifer Braswell

9. Keep your cheese slices (or whatever you have) neatly organized with this perfection of a storage container. Your food will stay fresh and tasty. Also, there is no need to use disposable wraps anymore.

The organizer is compact, easy to clean, and easy to find in the fridge. It is fairly durable and will last for a long time.

Promising review:

• Far too adorable to hide away in my fridge! So I repurposed it; chocolate is dairy, right? 😁 - Terri

10. These fun phone holders look just like miniature retro TV boxes! The first product is more compact and comes in a couple of different pretty colors. The second item also works as a handy tissue holder.

Both products are very well-made. They can make original gifts, and the great thing is that they are really useful as well.

Promising reviews:

• It took forever to arrive, but once it got here, I was completely satisfied. How adorable is this phone holder? There is plenty of room if you have a large phone. I have an iPhone 12 Max Pro, which fits perfectly. It is pretty sturdy plastic, and it was easy to put the antennas on. The phone slides in and out pretty easily. — Yesi
• Fairly easy assembly. You do have to use a little force to get the legs to pop into the holes properly. But it fits the tissue box easily, and my iPhone 14 fits easily in the front. Such a cute addition to my setup! — Kelly Koch
