You guys know I love to travel but deep down I am a homebody! I love to get all snuggled up in my cozy sweat sets, light a candle and lay under a soft blanket. These are my favorites that I love having when I’m at home (and beyond!). If you’re looking for more travel favorites check out the TRAVELER GIFT GUIDE.
lululemon Waffle Zip Up + Sweats – This new waffle material from lulu is INCREDIBLE. Definitely one of my new favorites.
Kindle – I’m all about making life easier and my Kindle does that. It’s better than reading on a phone or tablet because their isn’t a glare and its small enough to toss in any bag.
Robe – Who doesn’t love a cozy robe? This one is silky and so cute. I also love this one.
Geometry Towels – I’ve used these towels for YEARS. They’re mega absorbent, have the cutest prints, wash up so well and fold nicely. They’re known for their tea towels but we also love their beach/bath towels! Code TARA saves you 15% off!
Face Roller – This helps depuff your face and clears sinuses so well.
Moji – I swore to myself that I would never be the house that smells like dogs and cats.. these are my saving grace. They technically aren’t called Moji anymore, they go by the name The Happy Co. but it’s still the same product we know and love!
Sleep Crown – This was the best thing I bought myself last year and have slowly had to buy everyone in the family one because we are all obsessed. It’s a pillow that goes over half of your face and blocks out light and noise… seriously a game changer. Anyone who has one knows what I mean!!
Magnetic Charging Cable – This cord magnets to itself so it keeps it self tidy! Braun would love this. It’s definitely going in his stocking for his car and nightstand.
Chirp Wheels – This was the best gift I got myself a few years ago haha. I use them every single day and it pops and stretches in the best way. Braun loves them more than I do and that is saying something!!
Purple Pillow – I have this on the men’s gift guide too! We ALLL love them in this house. It’s made from the same material as Purple mattresses and is self cooling. I’m thinking this will make the perfect gift for your kids headed of to college soon. Don’t forget to add this pillowcase too! We just got them and their stretchy + silky. Feels like HEAVEN.
Bose Headphones – Noise cancelling and really comfortable to wear.
Butter Blanket – They recently launched butter blankets and their sooooo soft. Basically an adult swaddle. We’re all obsessed with them. Code TARA saves you 15% off!!
Stanley – If your parents aren’t in the loop on these bad boys then you’ve def done something wrong… JK! But seriously if they don’t have one it’ll be a great gift. I love the 64 oz for around the house. Beware though, it becomes the community water for the household haha.
StanByMe TV – I want this so bad but just don’t know how to justify it quite yet! haha It’s a rolling TV/ tablet and seems so nice. Imagine being able to have your fave show on while you’re in the bath. A DREAM.
Candle Warmer – A candle warmer is a great option! No flame, but you still get that smell you want. Candles last a lot longer with it too.
Medicube Face Mask – Ordered this this year.. and then bought 5 more for gifts! You put it on at night and then peel it off in the morning. Leaves your skin so glowy + hyrdrated. HERE are more medicube favorites!
Weighted Heating Pad – Bought this for myself and my girls are constantly using it. It’s the BEST to go to bed with at night, cramps, or when ya need to warm up. I turn it on before I start getting ready for bed and by the time it’s bedtime.. my bed is nice and cozy!
Skylight Calendar – This was a recent purchase of mine (k, maybe two years ago) and not only do I love it, but my kids love it! It lays out everyone’s calendars with ease. I have it in my kitchen so that everyone can see what their day, week, and month look like. No more asking what time ____ is!
Ninja Slushie Maker – The newest kitchen product everyone is raving about, and I can see why. I pretty much makes any drink you want into a slushy.. we used it all summer long and it was so easy to set up + use.
Fire Stick – I leave one of these in my luggage at all times, it makes a regular TV a smart TV, and when you unplug it, it keeps you logged in to all your accounts which is such a bonus. So great if you have a TV in a room that doesn’t have smart TV capabilities.
Tumbler – I’ve been so impressed with this tumbler. It’s glass, but then comes with an insulated sleeve that will keep your drink cold or warm.. Plus that sleeve can also be used as a cup!
Loop Ear Plugs – The comfiest ear plugs Braun and I have tried. A recc from one of you guys! Sometimes ya just need to block out the craziness, ya know?
Teva Slippers – I buy myself a pair of slippers every year and these were last years. I love them because they aren’t fuzzy on the inside so they keep your feet warm without making them hot. Amazing arch support too. THESE are the slippers/ house shoes I got this year!
Echo Spot – This is a new amazon product. It’s like an upgraded echo dot. I like that it displays the time + comes with all the amazon features we love.
Glow Beauty Brush – This feels like you’re getting a scalp massage every time you brush your hair. The bristles are metal and the quality is unmatchable. It was made by cosmetologists too! Code TARA saves you 10%.
OSEA Malibu – You literally can’t go wrong with OSEA. Code TTHUESON10 will save you 10%. They have some great holiday bundles on their site right now too! Their products are the best of the best. My favorites are:
- Body Wash
- Exfoliating Scrub
- Anti-Aging Body Balm
- Body Oil
- Body Butter
Kindle Holder – This one is for the lazy + efficient. You can clip it to your nightstand, bed, really anywhere so you don’t have to hold your kindle while you read.
Kindle Remote – Grab the kindle holder + this remote and you’re set for a cozy night of reading in your bed! You’ll be able to turn the pages with the remote so no need to have your arms sticking out of the blanket to get cold.
Steam Cleaner – I was on the hunt for a steamer that had a large tank last year and found this bad boy. It’s amazing and comes with so many attachments to clean all the things. Kills allll the germs and it pet / kid safe because it uses only steam to clean. It’ll be the most satisfying thing you buy in your life.
Hatch Restore – Love that this uses a light to wake you up more naturally. Has other awesome features too! The sound on it can start at specific times each night.. same with the lights in the morning!
Couch Caddy – I bought this for myself last year thinking Braun was going to make fun of me, well he freakin stole it! It’s nice because I tote it with me around the house with all my essentials in one place. And now we have two… 3 actually because he has one in St. George too.
Apron – Dying over how cute this apron is! I have a solid one from this same brand.
Puzzlefolk Puzzles – We got a bunch of these for neighbor gifts last year and they were a hit! They have the cutest designs and 500 or 1000 piece options. I also love this PUZZLE BOARD.
Bissel CrossWave Mop/Vacuum – Bought this this year and it’s AMAZING! Doesn’t leave lines/streaks either.
Lola Blankets – The softest blankets EVER. Seriously, you won’t find a softer one. All my kids use to steal mine and I ended up getting them all their own. It’s the cats fave too. Code TARA will save you!
Scrubbies – I purchased these a few months back and am loving them. They are abrasive so they clean really well.
Eye Massager – You guys sold this out years ago, it’s seriously the best thing ever. I love it when I have migraines and just to relax. Especially with all the dry eye problems I’ve been having this year.
Clicky Keyboard – Again, the little things. The sounds of an old school keyboard makes me GIDDY. I found this one on amazon and it makes the best click sounds just like keyboards used too. It’s heavy too which I love.
Kindle Cases – It’s the little things that make me so happy! A cute kindle cover? Yes please!
Kindle Colorsoft – It’s like a mix between a tablet and kindle. Seems awesome!
Shower Steamers – I love the eucalyptus one of this! You put them in the shower with you and it feels like you’re at the spa!
Conversation Starter Game – I love that these cards get deeper conversations going, helps you really get to know someone better.. even those within your family!
Digital Frame – I really love this for people who don’t live close. You can download an app and send pics to the frame so it constantly updates. We gifted one of these to Braun’s grandma a few years ago and everyone loads their photos onto it.
Rothy Clogs – I bought these slippers for myself this year. TECHNICALLY they’re shoes you can wear out and about, but I use them as house shoes/ slippers.. you do you! They’re really comfy, machine washable, and hold up sooo well. I love the braided version they came out with this year too!
Hammock Chair – We use these for soccer games, but I’ve been tempted to bring them outside and relax in them. Very comfortable and easy to set up and take down. Cozy up with a good book on the lawn and you’re in heaven.
Pranamat – My body craves this. It’s an acupressure mat that helps with all sorts of things, I use it every day, multiple times a day! It helps with my headaches, helps me sleep better, + so much more. Code TARATHUESON saves you.
Bose Speaker – The sound quality on this is incredible. Emery actually took it from me and uses it all the time, I ordered her one for Christmas!
Salty Tub Co – If you’re looking for a tranquil bath, these are the best kits on the planet. Packed with so much goodness and they have soooo many different options to fit your needs. 20% off code is TARA.
Shark Mop + Vacuum – I love that we link in a world where household chores can be done by machines and not by me. This one vacuums and mops, has an app where you can set up borders + times to run and it self empties/cleans!
Recipe Club – Anyone else so over digital recipes and having to dig to find them? I know I am! My friend, Kelsey, designed the most beautiful binder to be able to store a physical copy of all your recipes. She includes a canva editable template too so all your recipes can look the same. Talk about GENIUS!
Coloring Stuff – We all love to color and the link is to all of our favorite supplies. It’s the best way to unwind and relax.
