I don't know who's happier, me curating this post, you finding your new coolest product, or this "tears of joy" planter.
1. A whimsical handcrafted *tears of joy* planter that has big feelings, just like you. Each time you provide it with water, it feels so grateful, it gets emotional and sheds tears of joy. Same, plant. Same.
2. A tabletop cornhole game because you don't need a backyard to have big fun. You can bring it to your office desk or coffee table to break up the monotany of the day. Maybe challenge your boss, and the winner gets a day of PTO. 😉
3. A tree wizard bird feeder to turn your tree into something enchanted. This tree-mounted face instantly adds fantasy to your outdoor space and also serves as a place for your feathered friends to rest and eat. It makes your tree look like an Ent from Lord of the Rings is looking after the forest aka your front yard.
4. A handmade sassy storage canister you can imagine is low-key judging you when you reach back in for another snack. "Well, well, well, back so soon?"

Promising review:"They are adorable and I love them! I first ordered the blue one and liked it so much I bought the other, and they sit side by side in my kitchen. And since I have a Beauty and the Beast teacup set (they go well with it), the dishes come alive and with attitude." — Carol the Uncommon Goods Shopper
5. A mushroom cottage to give your little a cottagecore play tent that'll rival the dwarfs' home in Snow White. All you need is a box fan.
6. A ~salty~ gift set featuring six small-batch salts from Italy, ready to add some new flavor to your soups, salads, risotto, and more.
7. A rechargeable cassette player because you've decided to keep cassettes alive and we love you for that. This cassette player has Bluetooth capabilities, so it'll work with wireless earbuds, too.
8. A mini mixtape recorder so your little can get in on this retro action. The recorder can hold up to a minute of audio, enough time for them to leave you funny messages you can listen to later.

Promising review:"A friend sent me a screenshot via text of this cross body bag and I immediately ordered it in sage green. I initially purchased it for travel, but I wore it to a block party on Saturday and got so many compliments. It's got a more polished look, which I really like. I'm not a sporty person, so I love that this bag makes a fashion statement!" — AZKath

27. A couch caddy ideal for couch potatoes whose favorite pasttime is vegging out on the couch. This caddy will ensure you won't have to get up any time soon. It has a place for your beverage, snacks, a book, remotes, and everything else you might need to kick back and relax during your *me-time*.
Uncommon Goods
Promising review:"I bought this for my partner when we started using our armchair more often. She would often balance her coffee mug on the arm of the chair, which made me a little uneasy. We love every detail of this caddy, including the underside, which has a grippy, rubber surface. The top is wide enough to hold most coffee mugs, cans, and cups with plenty of space for additional items. The side section is great for remotes, phones, books, magazines, and more. This is a 10/10 item for us, and we'd consider purchasing again if we add another armchair to the living room." — Blake the Snake
