Picozon Magnetic and Adhesive Cord Organizer

$13

Are you constantly fumbling through cords on the ground just to find your cell phone charger? Never again, as Picozon’s cord organizer keeps your cords and plugs on the ready. Tidy up your office, kitchen, or bedroom space by affixing these keepers to a smooth wood, glass, metal, or marble surface, and then snapping your cords into place. Each keeper comes with a magnetic or adhesive backing that can be removed and reused if you don’t like the original placement. The slot diameter on each cord keeper is 0.3 inches, which can accommodate most cables with the ability to pull them through smoothly for use. One five-star reviewer noted they no longer have to pick up fallen cords from the floor. “I charge my cell, iPad, and my watch next to my couch. Some or all of the cords would fall between the end table and the couch on a daily basis,” they shared. “Now they’re all in a row on the end table and ready when I need one.”

Air Wick Essential Mist Diffuser and Starter Kit

$14

$10

Cold and flu season is no match for this portable essential oil diffuser and neither are stinky room odors. Simply add your favorite essential oil (lavender and almond blossom to fight germs, or mandarin and tangerine to eliminate smells) to transform the mood of your room instantly. The diffuser features a modern, cordless design, so you can move it from room to room, and the included inserts require no water and last two times longer than other oil diffusers, according to the brand. You can get up to 45 days of fragrance on the low setting, too. One shopper said they were “totally surprised” by how well the kit worked. “Despite it being so small (3 inches tall), it really puts out some serious fragrance and you don't have to mess with adding water.” Even on the lowest setting, it emitted enough scent to fill both her kitchen and living room.

EcoHomes Bed Sheet Organizer Size Label Bands

$10

Now, this is a product you never knew you needed! EcoHomes’ bed sheet organizer bands neatly sort your sheet sets by size, so you can grab the ones you need without rifling through piles. They’re perfect for large families with several bedrooms or for Airbnb owners who need to simplify things for the cleaners. After you’ve washed and folded your bedding sets, blankets, and duvet covers , wrap these labels around the corresponding linens, and then store them in your closet. The stretchable design of the elastic and nylon bands allows linens to be stacked neatly for easy access. One Amazon reviewer wrote, “It's exciting to find a product that you didn't realize you needed your whole life. This is one of those!” They said the bands have made it so much easier for her to select the right size bed sheets while keeping them all together. Choose from two-, four- or multi-pack labels designed for sizes twin, full, queen, and king.
