While it still has the iconic red plaid cover, the vintage Better Homes & Gardens cookbook from decades ago is a lot different from the current edition on my desk.

The Arielle metal platform bed and headboard arrived at my door in a flat-packed box just a few days later.

It was mildly overwhelming, but that’s typically the price you pay for ordering affordable furniture online that arrives in days, not months....

About Air Plants Air plants (Tillandsia spp.) are epiphytes, meaning that in nature they grow on other plants, usually on tree branches. There are hundreds of species and varieties of air plants. They usually have strap-shape or slender triangle-shape leaves that grow in a rosette pattern with new growth appearing from the center. Those with silver foliage tend to be the most drought-tolerant; greener types dry out faster. You can also find colorful species, like Tillandsia maxima that can have coral leaves....

The light has three different brightness settings that users control to help wake them up and get their brains ready to start the day. It turns on with the touch of a button and will stay on for as long as you’d like. This lamp works to improve sleep quality because, ironically, light is essential to sleep.

Bath & Body Works’ three-wick candles are some of the best available because of their long life, their wide variety of scents, and the strength of their throw (in other words, how powerful their scent is). Plus, the chic packaging you can find on some candles doesn’t hurt either, and it certainly doesn’t give off the vibe of a candle you can pick up at the mall. To buy: $12 (was $25); bathandbodyworks....
