Farmstand Garlic Keeper

You probably reach for garlic every time you cook, so you might as well keep it in a container that will actually look attractive in your kitchen. Garlic can cause a bit of a mess, thanks to the paper-thin peel surrounding the inner bulb. This jar comes with a lid, so it keeps all those flakey pieces contained inside, making less of a mess in your space. Also, it looks like a garlic bulb, which is incredible. 

Cottage Egg Crate

Yes, you can absolutely store your eggs in the handy cardboard and plastic egg containers from the grocery store, but if you’re looking for a more stylish option, grab this egg crate. The speckled pattern gives it a rustic, farmhouse feel, but it has substance, too. One shopper wrote that this “crate also saves space in the fridge when compared to an egg carton from the store.”

Nathalie Lété Salt and Pepper Shakers

The salt and pepper shakers in your kitchen get used so frequently that you probably take their design for granted. I’m enchanted by the so-called cottage-core trend, so I love this mushroom-shaped salt and pepper shaker set. It turns such a simple tool into a stylish kitchen accessory, and I bet they’ll start a conversation if you display them on your dining room table at your next dinner party. 

Faye Sugar Pot

Whether you’re adding sugar to your morning coffee or cookie dough, its rightful place is not in a cardboard box, it’s a cute little jar. This one is decorated with a garden theme — there is a snail on the lid, and it’s embossed with pink flowers. The bowl itself comes with a green spoon for serving. 

Sandira Dishcloths, Set of 6

There should be two types of dish towels in your kitchen: The durable set that you use to clean spills and splatters, and the decorative set that you use to dry your hands after washing the dishes. These fall into the latter category, with their playful pompoms and cheerful rainbow of colors — and you’ll actually want to hang them by the sink for everyone to see instead of stuffing them in a drawer. Plus, one shopper wrote that “the way they feel makes you want to do the dishes.”

Loro Bird Butter Dish

For a long time, I set cold butter out to soften on the counter in a random bowl from my cabinet, a method that most certainly lacked finesse. What I needed was a butter dish, and if I could go back in time I would have grabbed this one: Its rich burgundy and pink hues are eye-catching, and it’s topped with a glamorous bird figurine. Even the tray itself has a pretty scalloped edge. It’s perfect for the person who loves maximalist design with a lot of character. 

Cherry Garnish Cocktail Picks

When we have friends over, I always serve a pitcher of our favorite cocktail of the moment. These cherry-topped skewers would add a subtle touch of style to my guests’ drinks, especially if we’re sipping martinis. They’re made from stainless steel so they can be used for party after party — just keep an eye on your guests because they might be tempted to walk out the door with them. 

Nathalie Lété Oven Mitt

Baking always puts me in a good mood, which is why my eye was drawn to this floral patterned oven mitt. It’s decorated with big, bright red, orange, and pink blooms, and the inside is filled with soft, comfortable cotton. It will protect your arm all the way up the elbow as you're pulling pie or bread out of the oven, but more importantly, it will exponentially add to the cheer of your kitchen. 

Lilypad Teacup and Saucer Set

I can’t help but love this whimsical teacup, which I think would make me feel like a little frog in her pond, enjoying an email- and deadline-free life. The teacup comes with its own saucer, and the glazed stoneware is dishwasher-safe. Grab a couple for your friends too, and start planning a grown-up tea party.
