After use, you can hang the mat; it will dry out in minutes. The mat is both decorative and functional. This was a great purchase. There will be no more wet dish towels to contend with.

These glasses are SO CHIC and are very similar to ones sold at Crate & Barrel but are MUCH more durable. Unlike the C&B glasses, you can cheers without feeling like the glasses will break.

It comes in a beautiful teal color, which I love. And the three toast levels ensure you don't burn food and the quality of the toast is just right — from light to brown. I highly recommend it!" — Joyce Hill

Promising review:"Rug is stunning!! Our kitchen has accent colors of cobalt blue, and it's perfect (we got the blue medallion), really ties everything together. Great wide runner, true to size. This is NOT a fuzzy rug; more of a velvety fabric with the pattern printed onto it. Which is great for high traffic areas and easy cleaning. Highly recommend!" — E Hackman

Promising review:"I just received my order of my duvet. I am so in love with how soft and fresh the opposite side feels. It's so beautiful and comfortable. I definitely recommend if anyone is looking for a good duvet. It's pretty thick on the material as well. I love how it has the ties in the middle, not just the corners. It makes it easy to attach your comforter to it that goes on the inside. Yes, it's a little pricy, but well worth the investment. I will definitely be purchasing more products from this brand!" — Elizabeth

We have a lot of get-togethers with friends, and cheese is a staple appetizer in our house. So I purchased my own and have been using it weekly since. It cuts easily and it's mostly easy to clean.

Promising review: "Super happy. For the price and simplicity of this corner shelf I'm all for this product. It's was relatively easy to build — the wavy shape made it a little more confusing, but I built it in under an hour. It's easy to clean too, I just use a white erase and everything comes up. I've put rocks and books all over the shelf, so the weight limit is solid. Functional and cool I would recommend to a friend." — ashlynn
Get it from Amazon for $129.99 (available in seven colors and in packs of two).

I wasn't sure about whether I would like that it is plastic but now consider it a big plus. It keeps the bowl lightweight (but it is still sturdy) and makes it easy to clean. I highly recommend this fruit bowl. I couldn't be more pleased with mine." — Opinion o'Jen

Here's what my beloved fellow BuzzFeeder/soul twin Heather Braga has to say about it: " I'm SUCH a fan of Otherland candles. I've been burning them in my home for years and, honestly, cannot get enough of them. I've given tons of them as gifts as well, and everyone has always raved about how much they love them.

She makes me so happy every morning when I make my bed and finish it off with a little bow on top. And then I get to "unwrap" her at the end of the day with the gift of sleep. Highly recommend, it changed the whole mood of my (admittedly very pink) room!

Amazon, Emma Lord/BuzzFeed
Ornavo Home is a small business that specializes in furniture with creative storage solutions.
Another bonus? If you flip the lid over, it has a wooden base, so you can *also* use this as a teensy snack table. I recently got one of these for my new apartment to stash my candles and ~candle accessories~ in and it's pretty much become my favorite piece of furniture?? I use it to prop up my feet during work hours and sometimes if I want to eat on my couch I'll use it as a tray. It's also sturdy enough to sit on, if I ever wanted to have guests over and needed an extra chair. It was RIDICULOUSLY easy to set up — I had it done in less than 10 minutes, and probably didn't even need the directions. It also just looks so darn cute (and comes in so many colors that I'm tempted to buy another!).
Get it from Amazon for $34.99 (available in two colors).

Get it from Amazon for $19.99 (available in four colors).
29. A tiny marble patterned milk frother that makes rich, creamy froths in seconds, because why stop at regular tea and coffee when you can have velvety-soft milk tea and lattes?
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising review:"So I'll admit I got this on a whim after a TikTok video. However, I'm in love with this thing! It's so much fun to use, and you make your at-home drinks feel so much more special. It's easy to use and froths pretty quickly if you're on the fence I'd say what are you waiting for buy it already!" — Denise
Get it from Amazon for $14.99+ (available in dozens of styles).

www.amazon.com, Amazon
Promising review: "The color of these books is actually more vivid and beautiful in person. I'm thrilled with how it looks on the shelf — plus it's a very good hiding spot. I would 100% recommend these for anyone looking to add color to your home." — elishiva

www.amazon.com, Amazon
Promising revie w: "Short and sweet review: if you're a non-traditional sitter like me, this chair is worth every dang penny. It may not be as cute or plush as other cross-legged chairs on the market, but this is the superior model for ergonomic sitting and is everything I hoped it would be. I have tried every other kind of non-traditional chair on the market (kneeling, ergonomic, backless, yoga ball, etc.) in an attempt to find something that achieves the same things this chair does for a fraction of the price, and can tell you that there's really no equivalent out there — honestly, I probably spent more money trying to find cheaper alternatives for this chair than I did had I just purchased it outright when I first saw it." — Amy K.
Get it from Amazon for $349 (available in four colors).
32. A set of super absorbent pastel waffle weave dishcloths, because it's high time someone looked around and said, " Hey, what if we made the thing we use the most often in the kitchen actually LOOK good??" Thank you for your aesthetic service!!!!

And then I could use it as a spoon rest! It's substantial, perfectly sized for setting a spatula o n (granted you don't want to put the spatula on raw egg, so I've used it more as a spoon rest). It will be my go-to from now on!" — Triathlons@50

Who tackles slugs in Meghan Markle's vegetable plot?

I CAN'T wait for our fruit and veg to be ready this year. When I've picked the perfect specimens of carrots, beans, lettuce, onions, courgettes and tomatoes I'll be sure to arrange them beautifully in a wicker basket and clutch it proudly while my husband takes a few pictures. I'll then stick them on Instagram for the world to admire. Of course this isn't true. I don't have an Instagram account but, more crucially, like last year and the year before that, it will be touch and go as to whether our crops are successful - last summer they were annihilated by slugs. I hate to admit I'm envious of Meghan Markle, Her vegetable garden yields crops worthy of red rosettes at The Yorkshire Show. She shared a picture on Instagram - reproduced on news websites - of a 'garden haul' of fresh produce seemingly grown at her Montecito mansion in California. There's broccoli, carrots, corn, red peppers and squash as well as spring onions and an assortment of fresh herbs. Meghan joins the growing band of celebrities and other rich and famous people showing off their home-grown produce on social media. Critics piled in with their cynical observations, chiefly the lack of soil on any of the Duchess of Sussex's produce. They've got a point. Does Meghan get her hands dirty tending her veg? Picture: Aaron Chown/PA David Beckham's crop of picture-perfect, freshly harvested radishes - which wife Victoria posted on social media - also caught my eye. 'He's been gardening all day and here he is, tending to his vegetable patch,' her caption read. Kneeling next to a raised bed, David clutches a clean-as-a-whistle horseradish just plucked from the garden at his Cotswold estate. It wasn't the lack of soil - although the veg was spotless - that struck me about the picture, it was his clean white canvas shoes and jeans. For someone who had been gardening all day there were no grubby knees. Maybe he'd just changed for the photo, who knows? I don't doubt that either Meghan or Becks garden. Both do, and they clearly enjoy it, which is great, but do they get stuck into any real grow-your-own gardening - the sort of hard slog, permanent dirt-under-the fingernails pursuits made famous by Tom and Barbara Good in the TV show The Good Life? If you ask me it's more like dabbling Growing crops demands real effort, on a daily basis, for many weeks of the year. It is hard work, as my husband and I have discovered in the 20 years since we acquired a garden. Preparing the soil and sowing takes time, then it's a constant battle to keep on top of pests: one week you're fighting blackfly on your broad beans, the next carrot fly - and not only on carrots - and white rot on onions and leeks. There's slugs, slugs and more slugs. I've even resorted to slug patrol at midnight, to remove the slimy beasts from our young courgette plants. I can't see Meghan or David doing that. Just-sown plants need protection from birds like pigeons, sparrows, and crows, and from cats raking up the soil. Then, perhaps most important of all, there's the weather: daily watering in dry spells, preventing waterlogging and keeping them upright throughout wet periods. The Beckhams' main residence is London - a long way from those raised beds. Growing veg presents great photo opportunities, but let's face it, many lifestyles are not conducive to tending them week-in-week-out. My husband and I are lucky, I suppose - our uneventful life means we can put in the hours. Having said that, it's good to know that if we were ever away cruising the Med or shopping in New York, our wonderful neighbours over the road would happily step in and do our watering. For many famous faces growing their own, there must be help behind the scenes. So, let's hear it for the many gardeners who are beavering away out of sight, hoes in hand.

Gap Partners With Malbon To Bridge The Gap Between Style And Sport

Gap and Malbon Golf teamed up for a limited-edition collection featuring 33-pieces for men and ... More women. Doris and Donald Fisher opened the first Gap store in 1969 in San Francisco, selling records, tapes and the increasingly popular Levi's jeans. The brand's name was to highlight the generational gap between the young, liberal baby boomers and their conservative post-war parents. As Gap has grown and evolved—now part of Gap Inc. along with Old Navy, Banana Republic and Athleta—it's remained rooted in its goal of 'championing originality.' More than 50 years later, Gap is taking that same approach with golf, but with a little help. The globally recognized brand that defined casual American style teamed up with golf-inspired lifestyle brand Malbon Golf to appeal to endemic and non-endemic golfers alike with a new apparel and accessories collection. 'Gap has always been about celebrating true originals,' said Mark Breitbard, Gap President & CEO. 'Malbon is not just a golf brand—they've created an incredible platform and community that stretches beyond the sport. … The intersection of fashion and sports continues to grow in the cultural zeitgeist, and we're excited to see such a strong positive response to Gap x Malbon and to be a part of that conversation.' The 33-piece collection available June 6 merges Malbon's signature, streetwear-inspired golf aesthetic with Gap's prep-inspired classics. Offering a range of versatile, golf-inspired silhouettes for men and women, the collection features fleece, knits and accessories with classic stripes, plaid and herringbone accents that complement the assortment. The collection is highlighted by a custom 'PAR' logo, a game-inspired play on the iconic Gap arch logo. Jesper Parnevik with children Peg and Phoenix for Gap x Malbon. The Generation Golf campaign to celebrate the collection, unsurprisingly, highlights bridging generational gaps by featuring five-time PGA Tour winner Jesper Parnevik, a Malbon Golf ambassador since 2024, and his children, Peg and Phoenix. While some may scratch their heads at this collaboration, others understand it's actually a perfect fit as both brands are focused on bridging the gap between generations on and off the course. Founded by Stephen and Erica Malbon in 2017, Malbon Golf's mission is to 'inspire today's youth to participate in the greatest game on Earth.' 'Malbon has been on our radar for a long time because of how they connect with their community and how they extend the boundaries of golf into a broader creative culture and lifestyle,' said Benjamin Tsujiura, Head of Merchandising, Men's & Collaborations at Gap. 'Working with Malbon was natural. We shared the vision for what ultimately became the line and the campaign. 'I'm very proud of the collection which represents both of our brands' signature aesthetics and acknowledges how the new generation wants to experience the game.' Malbon Golf continues to carve out its own niche within the golf industry and culture since its founding. Working with endemic and non-endemic brands on collaborations and collections including FootJoy, Jimmy Choo, Curb Your Enthusiasm and adidas, Malbon Golf continues to shine a spotlight on the game, particularly among golf's growing youth and diverse demographics. Growing up with Gap, the collaboration that mixes heritage and contemporary edge is a 'full-circle moment' for the Malbons. 'With this collection, we were intentional about honoring that legacy while bringing a modern, sport-forward lens through the Malbon Golf perspective,' said Erica and Stephen Malbon.

I Was Petrified to Clean My Grill — Until I Discovered This 'Game-Changing' Trick

This article may contain affiliate links that Yahoo and/or the publisher may receive a commission from if you buy a product or service through those links. A couple weeks ago, it was a perfect, sunny 80 degrees in the San Francisco Bay Area. I knew it wouldn't last, but all I could think about was having a grilled hot dog — the smoky, blistered char, the toasty buns, the ice-cold beer to go along with it. I could practically taste summer! The only problem? I was petrified to open my grill. I love cooking outside because it minimizes the mess in my kitchen, but I'm a bit too low-key when it comes to cleaning up outside. I'll usually scrape up any big food bits before shutting the grill off and calling it a night. Then before I cook my next meal on the grill, I'll give it another quick clean. I don't know the last thing I grilled last summer — all I know is I definitely forgot to properly clean my grill afterward. I was totally panicked by what could be waiting for me under the grill hood, but the hot dog craving was just too strong. Plus, Senior Lifestyle Editor Quinn Fish introduced me to these game-changing grill wipes she found, and I was eager to give those a try. If you have kids (or know someone who has kids), you'll quickly notice that the packaging looks like baby wipes. And honestly, the concept is not too dissimilar. These are premoistened cloths meant to clean up messes called Crocodile Cloth Grill Cleaning Wipes. Home Depot $21 Buy Now These large, heavy-duty wipes are touted as being able to effectively remove things like grease, ash, rust, fire residue, and sauces. Beyond cleaning grill grates, they can be used on drip pans, grill accessories, burners, the grill exterior, coolers, outdoor furniture, and even your hands. They're unscented and are infused with aloe and vitamin E, making them gentle on your skin but tough on grease. Plus, at only $20.99 for an 80-pack, they're only about a quarter a piece — which is a steal of a deal, and will last for years to come. I couldn't wait to put them to the test! These wipes make cleaning the grill infinitely easier. After months of no use (and no thorough cleaning), my grill was indeed pretty gnarly. I still needed to use a grill scraper for some stubborn bits initially, but I wiped down everything afterward (even below the grates!) with the Crocodile wipes and was impressed by how strong they were. Even when I used firm pressure to remove gunky or greasy bits, they never ripped, like a paper towel would, and they're nondrying so they stay wet for up to an hour. They're also huge — 10×15 inches, about three to four times the size of your standard household or industrial wipe. With tons of surface area and an ultra-tough nonwoven texture, I could use one wipe for several tasks. What's especially great about them is that because they're alcohol-free and totally food-safe, you don't even have to wash and dry the grill after you use them (which is a total pain). That's right, just wipe and cook! It saves so much time, energy, and effort when you're getting ready to BBQ. Hopefully you've taken better care of your grill, and you only need to use these wipes for a light cleaning after each time you grill this summer. I'll definitely be using them whenever I grill moving forward! Next up, I want to try the brand's all-purpose, biodegradable version and the powerSCRUB option.
