How did we ever survive before Amazon? I have been known to purchase everything from furniture to toothpaste on Amazon and the only drawback I have found is dealing with all the cardboard. We now have weekly recycle pickup which helps but I always feel guilty sending it away curbside.
Before we dive in, I highly recommend you get an Amazon credit card as it is really (too) easy to spend the credits each month. You should also definitely invest in Amazon Prime for free shipping, yes, but even more importantly for the other benefits including my favorites Amazon prime video (check out Flea Bag and Sneaky Pete) and free books and magazines – check out the full list of benefits.
Below is a list of my favorite 15 things I purchased on Amazon in the past 90 days. I omitted lots of things that would have less general interest such as tennis strings, batteries and eccentric items such as dishwasher freshener but can attest that there is an Amazon box on my doorstep most days.
Hope you find something in here that you love!
Getting ready for Christmas early. These are going to run along my staircase with lights. Pretty reasonable price for a major impact. Zip ties are a great way to attach quickly and without any damage. More to come on my other early Chrismas purchases soon.
Since he is not going into the office, my husband has not been wearing his usual collar polo shirts. I have bought his a few Marvel shirts on Amazon that have been a bit hit. This The Punisher one is great for October.
These pumpkins are soooo good if you want to move a bit away from the very traditional bright orange color. Check out my Halloween post to see how I styled these with a black bowl and some black crinkle paper (purchased on Amazon). Great design at a great price.
Every teen needs LED lights in their room and we are on the 2nd installation with my son and these are a big upgrade from the previous ones we used for just slightly more – they can be controlled from a smart phone! They also provide great room lighting for online school. More to come soon on this one!
I love Halloween and one of my favorite movies is The Nightmare Before Christmas – this is an Oogie Boogie ornament to complete my collection – Jack Skellington, Sally and Zero also purchased on Amazon. Check out my Halloween post.
I have purchased these 3x. Check out my Faux Plants post to see some examples of my DIY – this is such an easy and fun project and you can create some amazing decor in just a few minutes.
I have been buying a ton of pillows and thus need lots of inserts. These are a great price for down which you definitely want for comfort. Order 2″ larger than your pillow size to get a nice fluffy look. More to come soon on great sources for decorative pillows.
Covid has made working out challenging. Tried to run but hate, hate, hate it so gave up and ordered these to continue lifting in my own backyard gym. Hex shape is great to make sure they do not roll away when you set them down.
The weights were great but the mat is key for comfort when doing lunges or other activities that require you to get down an dirty. Very impressed with these for the cost.
Fantastic bedside tables for the guest room. Beautiful and incredibly affordable for only around $300 each compared to most at $1000+ and even over $100 cheaper than the same bedside tables on other sites.
Because who doesn’t like pumpkin coffee! Seriously, this is the best sauce to use in your home coffee and you can get other amazing flavors such as white chocolate and caramel as well. Buy the small size first then use this to refill for big savings.
I was shocked how much some frames cost and Amazon has a great selection of modern frames at amazing prices. Full post of picture frames to come but this is a good one to start with.
A great design book that balances fantastic inspiration pictures with some very practical how-to advice. If design isn’t your thing, get a different book and reach out to let me know how I can help with your design needs.
If you have a dog then you know why we have this. The old one conked out and thankfully this came the day before Odin the Frenchie had an accident. A bit spendy but worth it to protect rug investments and for ease of use.
Another one for dog people. This smells so good in between baths and it provides great hydration for your four-legged family member.
