25 Amazon All Time Favorites That I Have In My Home

As you go through your routines around the home do you have some favorite items that make things easier or add to the quality of daily living? You might find some useful items in this curated list!

I’ve been thinking of writing this post for awhile now and finally just getting to it! This is practical and based on items that I own and I hope that it helps you out! Don’t we all have items that we find we reach for or utilize time and time again in our lives, and others that don’t seem to get our attention? Whether it’s a home decor piece, an article of clothing or something utilitarian, we seem to play favorites. At least that things work in my home and I’ve been giving this list some thought based on my own experience. Let’s get started on the list and these are all items that I’ve purchased on Amazon, so I’m sharing the links in case you’d like to learn more about any of the items below. You can click on the titles or the buttons below the info on each.

My 25 Amazon All Time Favorites

LifePro Vibration Plate Exercise Machine

LifePro Vibration Plate

If you belong to a gym then you might have seen vibration machines before. My physician is actually the one who told me about it and as a woman of my age group she uses it to help build bone and lose fat. She referred me to some articles on how vibration therapy is used on the astronauts when they return from space, which can give them bone loss. Here is one article and you can Google for more. I’ve had mine for about 8 months now and use it 3 times a week. I can honestly say that I feel between this device and daily walking I feel better than I have in years! Check it out below if this interests you and I’m always open to your questions.

Wireless Battery Operated Wall Sconces – Set of 2 

living room with battery operated wall sconces

I’ve wanted to install a pair of sconces in my living room for ages, but the fact that this house has plaster walls creates a problem. If you’ve ever tried to drill through plaster then you know what I mean, and since I don’t like sconce cords dangling down it was a no-go. These wireless sconces solved my dilemma and they are so practical, easy to hang and give good ambient light! They also come with a remote control and the light bulbs are rechargeable so they are environmentally friendly.

Dimmable Swing Arm Pharmacy Floor Lamp

Gold swingarm pharmacy style floor lamp

A practical solution for a reading space, we’ve had this in our remodeled family room for a year now and it’s used daily. There isn’t much light in this corner for reading at night and it’s perfect for not throwing light into the whole room, but focuses on the space that you need lit.

PetSafe Happy Ride Quilted Dog Car Seat Cover

Car protective dog blanket

While I don’t use this on a daily basis, when we do take our dogs in my SUV it’s always on the back seat to protect the leather. It’s made of a padded cotton and is machine washable and has anchors to hold it in place.

Cotton/Linen High/Low Button Down Long Sleeve Tunic Top

tunic top for women

I happen to love this brand and have quite a few of their pieces in my wardrobe. This tunic is a 50/50 cotton linen blend, so it does wrinkle some, but a quick steaming takes care of that for me. Fits true to size or size up one if you like a looser fit. You’ll grab this to wear often, as I do!

Reverse Osmosis System For Under Kitchen Sink

reverse osmosis system for under kitchen sink

There are so many articles about the poor quality of our drinking water in the US. My husband and I believe that you are what you eat and drink as well! When we put in our new kitchen we added this filtration system and now don’t have to rely on bottle water. Highly recommend and you can learn more via the button below.

Vintage Style Reeded Glass Film For Window Privacy

reeded glass film for door

When we put in our new kitchen pantry, I was looking for a vintage door to fit. The prices that I saw were not in my budget so I came up with this solution! We purchased a new French door and added this vintage style cling film and it looks old without the cost! If you have a privacy issue window, this might be just what you’re looking for.

Gold Rub ‘n Buff

gold rub n buff

This paint finish is invaluable to any home decor enthusiast and has tons of uses! I’ve used it on everything from picture frames to cabinet hardware and more. A must have in your decorating tool-kit!

BISSELL Little Green Multi-Purpose Portable Carpet and Upholstery Cleaner

Shabyfufu BISSELL Little Green Multi-Purpose Portable Carpet and Upholstery Cleaner

I can’t sing the praises of this powerful little machine enough! Use it on carpet, upholstery, area rugs, auto interiors and more! I just cleaned my white family room slipcovered sofas with it last weekend and it was a heck of a lot easier than taking those slipcovers off!

Semi-Flush Mount Ceiling Light Fixture

Shabbyfufu summer home tour 2021

This elegant semi-flush mount ceiling light fixture sits in our front entry foyer. It’s lovely and throws off an ample amount of softly diffused light. Perfect for a traditional or even a modern home style.

Space Saving Foldable Heavy-Duty Organizer Tote (6 Pack)

I use these to store my faux florals and hang the bags on hooks in my garage. Lots of uses for storage (extra bedding, towels, etc) and they are lightweight and flexible!

Non-Electric Bidet Attachment for Toilet Seat

An easy and inexpensive home upgrade to install to clean yourself after using the toilet! We have them in every bathroom in our home.

Lightweight Medium Crossbody Bag with Tassel

crossbody bag

I have this lightweight crossbody bag in both the black and the white and they hold everything that I need for a day out! Plus the tassel makes the bag so cute and it’s such at a great affordable price point.

Womens Wallet RFID Blocking

women's rfid blocking wallet

This is my everyday wallet and it’s a nice large capacity with a plentiful amount of card slots and zippered pockets for cash. This RFID blocking wallet has been tested and proven to effectively block signals from credit cards, debit cards, driver’s licenses, and ID cards. So important in today’s world!

Champagne Bronze Gold Kitchen Faucet With Pull Down Spray

delta faucet trinsic brushed gold

I’m a big believer in Delta Faucets and was fortunate to do a complete bathroom renovation with the company, so I really do know this brand well. They have a lifetime guarantee on all of their products which is rare. I have this faucet in our laundry room (see more here) and it’s a workhorse and a beauty! The sprayer is fantastic and it utilizes magnetic technology to snap it back into place.

Caldrea Sea Salt Neroli Linen & Room Spray, 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 2)

Caldrea linen and room spray

I’ve mentioned these before and have been using the Caldrea brand of room sprays for years! They are in a pump spray bottle, made from plant-derived ingredients, no artificial colors, not tested on animals. And the scents are all divine ❤️ You can also spritz it on your linens!

30”  Real Touch Phalaenopsis Spray Artificial Orchid Stems

These decorative real touch orchids are my go-to for creating the orchid arrangements in my home! The 12-piece set includes 12 large orchid flower heads and 12 plastic small flower buds for a stunning centerpiece or indoor/outdoor decoration.

Phalaenopsis Orchid Leaves Real Touch

faux orchids on table

To create a realistic faux orchid arrangement you need leaves and these are what I use. Each leaf has wire stems inside so that you can bend the leaves into any shape you want.

Vitruvi Stone Ultrasonic Aromatherapy Diffuser for Home

diffuser

We got this for our family room which is open to the kitchen and sometimes can catch a whiff of my cooking. It diffuses a soft scent and is so pleasant to look at, blending in with it’s cream stone appearance. I love the selection of Vitruvi scents, or you can use any essential oils.

Indian Floral Hand Block Printed 100% Pure Cotton Reversible Placemats

grandmillennial table setting in green

I love a round placemat, as it mimics the shape of the dishes! This set is almost always on our dining table and hand blocked Indian prints are timeless. Comes in a variety of colors and patterns and is reversible.

Rattan Square Tissue Box Cover

rattan tissue box cover

You might say that I’m mildly obsessed with this tissue box cover, as I have them in all of our rooms at the house! Rattan (especially bleached) goes with any style and those boutique tissue boxes are too drab to be seen, so cover them up!

Collapsible Laundry Basket

collapsible tissue box cover

This is far from a glamorous product but is one that is so useful! I hide this away in my laundry room behind a door so that it’s ready to go when needed. Genius I say!

Red Light Therapy for Face, Neck, Hands – Skincare Mask

red light therapy machine at home

There has been lots of talk in the beauty community about the benefits of red light therapy. Read this interesting article. My own dermatologist and I discussed this and I purchased one for myself for Christmas. I prefer this one to the red light therapy masks, since it does my neck at the same time and it’s a nice chill way to relax for 20 minutes on days that I use it. I had a small scar on my face that has disappeared and I feel that my skin is looking brighter and pores appear to be tighter as well. Check it out ladies!

2 Pack Soft French Terry Cotton Drawstring Yoga Lounge Pants

loungewear pants

The name of this brand is Sexy Basics and my daughters and I get a giggle over it! That said, I love lounging in these drawstring pants and purchased a couple of sets in different colors for around the house. My millennial daughters wear them too.

Electric Gooseneck Kettle with 5 Temperature Control Presets for Coffee & Tea

coffee bar

I use this fashionable kettle daily to heat the water for my tea and pour-over coffee. You can set the ideal temperature for your water and it keeps the water warm until ready to use. Mine is slightly different because it’s older than this model.

  3. Joanne M. says:

    I started viewing your beautiful posts last Spring because I moved and wanted to decorate in a soft French style. Now I’m enjoying the many other wonderful decorating and useful items you share. TY.

    1. Joanne, I’m so happy to have you here!

      1. Valeri Johnson says:

        Thank you Janet,

        I have ordered the vibration platform because I have osteopenia and hope to stop the progression. Have you had a bone density test done since using it to compare with a prior one?

        Thanks, Valeri

        1. Hi Valerie,

          I think that you’ll like it and I also feel that it’s so good for our circulation! I haven’t had a bone density done, since it hasn’t been a year just yet since I purchased it. My physician has though and it’s getting better for her. I’m a pro-ager and try to take really good care of myself and see the results!

  4. Great post many useful things to consider. Red light therapy has been around along time and is also good in healing joint and muscle pain. I saved the semi flush light fixture and the glass cling film. These are 2 things I could use. Thank you.

    1. I’ve read many good things about red light therapy and find that not only does it help my skin but it’s relaxes me! Enjoy your weekend Diana

  5. Wonderful!!!
    I am looking for a mirror like the on over the fireplace in the photo of the battery operated sconces?

    1. Thank you Jeanne! Mine is vintage, so I can only suggest looking at local estate sales or a site like Etsy or Ebay

  6. The collapsible laundry basket looks very handy!

  7. I would buy the gooseneck kettle and semi-flush mount ceiling light fixture. I’d love to see some home office items and kitchen/fridge organizing items from Amazon.

  8. reversible placemats- they are lovely

  9. Karen LaFranca says:

    Wow…I found several items I would buy from this great list…but The Lifepro Vibration Plate is the first one I will buy. I think it will help motivate me to exercise and anything that promotes lymphatic drainage is a bonus! Thanks, Janet, for a great post!

  10. Oh…so many different items. Top would be that kettle, yoga pants and faux orchids. 🙂

  11. Gayle Stewart says:

    Thank for sharing your favorite products. Do you have any links for research about the vibration machine, by any chance?

    Thank you.

  12. I adore those placemats, but that orchid is everything. I enjoyed this post because I usually think of Amazon for books and tech. I am delighted to see such adorable and practical houswares.

  13. Diane Hammons says:

    The Red Light Therapy article interests me, that is what I would use the gift card for. Diane

  14. I think we need the water filter system. I would like to see anything that you’ve used and tested 😊.

  15. I like the rattan tissue holder. It’s always a challenge to find boxes that coordinate with each room. It blends nicely with all my neutral decor.
    You have nice taste and great ideas. I like that you always have the source available.

  16. Thank you for this list. I’m very interested in the orchid blooms and leaves .

  17. Love so many of these things! I’m definitely going to check out the collapsible laundry basket.

  18. Janet !
    As always. great tips and products galore:) I have several but I definitely would buy the battery opp sconces! Fantastic ! I would like to see travel essentials for a stress-free experience!

  19. Deborah Mathis says:

    I have a few things in mind to buy. Cross body bag, flush mount light and gold rub.

  20. Patricia Wing says:

    All of these are amazing! The bidet and orchid stems caught my eye. I live in senior housing so some of the things I wouldn’t be able to use. I did interior decorating in my younger days so I still love to do that with what I have, always changing to keep it interesting.

  21. Ann Baird says:

    I like the round placemats in blue and the wallet.

  22. Really interested in the WBV machine – how does it work? Do you just stand on it? Thanks for any info.

    1. Jacki, yes you do stand on it. It comes with some straps if you want to exercise your arms while using it, but I don’t. I find it has really helped my balance and it’s great for circulation and bone density.

  23. Nancy Walden says:

    I’m torn—either the tea pot or the lounge pants!

  24. I’ve already added the floor lamp, the sconces, and the laundry basket to my cart!

  25. I love the look of the yoga pants but feel they might be too low waisted???

    1. Cindy, they have drawstrings at the waist. I like the fit personally which is just below the navel:-)

  26. I would buy the collapsible laundry basket or the yoga pants. That basket I think would also work well in the car when you need to contain items. I would like to see metal containers that we could use inside or out from Amazon.Unusual ones.

  27. They r all great,can’t pick just one.

  28. There were many things that I loved (as with all your posts) but I particularly love the black, crossbody purse. I also love the square, rattan tissue box cover-very pretty!

    As a side, I LOVE, LOVE the tile backsplash behind the Delta Faucet-it looks beautiful in your laundry rooml! Thank you for always providing useful links!

  29. Kathryn Schultz says:

    Love the sconces; they’re adorable; I just need to find a place to put them! And love the Little Green Bissell; thanks for the recommendation; my house definitely needs this. But Bidet attachment is what I’ve been wanting and is tops on my wish list.

  30. Melanie Curtis says:

    I have purchased the kettle as a Christmas present for my daughter who loves it!
    I have recommended your blog to friends who love French style decorating. Thanks for all the sharing of your great ideas!

  31. Hello Janet, I’m curious as to how often you have to recharge the wall sconces?

    1. Honoré, of course it depends on how often you use them, but I’d say for us it’s every 2 weeks. Super easy to charge as you just lift the bulbs out and charge with a USB!

  32. Lana Grasso says:

    I’m going to check out the cordless wall sconce lamps and the portable carpet/upholstery cleaner. Several items would work for me but I have an immediate need for both of these. Thanks for the “enlightenment “.

  33. I’d love to buy the cordless sconces and the comfy look g yoga pants. Great article, thanks for sharing.☺️

  34. I’d love to buy the cordless sconces, so very practical and classy. I also would buy the comfy looking yoga pants. Thanks for your fun recommendations!

  35. Sherry Warnock says:

    I love the vibration machine. Used to use one at a gym, didn’t realize they came in a compact model.

    1. Our gym has one too and it’s nice to have this compact model all to myself, lol!

  36. I would love to try the bidet attachment!!

    1. We have one on three of our four toilets in our home!

  37. I love the yoga lounge pants.. I have been looking for something like this. Thanks for sharing.

    1. They are what I always wear when I’m at home relaxing Michelle and so comfy!

  38. I did make it this far, but probably too late for the drawing! LOL I did see several things that are of interest in this post: the collapsible laundry basket, battery wall sconces, red light thingy!! always like to read bloggers favorite things they have in their home. Keep up the good work.

    1. You were too late Marty but it’s good to know that so many of you enjoy these type of posts! Have a great week
