As a professional shopper, I spend my days curating product roundups [1] of the best of the best, and most recently, helping you find the hottest gifts of the year [2]. During the holidays it seems like brands and retailers drop more new products than ever, and it's hard to not fall in love with all the home items I want to add to my own space. Navigating all these finds is hard, so I'm here to what's worth buying this December.
Ahead, I made a list of the 20 home items on my own wish list right now. From a comfortable cloud-like sofa [3] to cool kitchen gadgets [4], and even some festive finds, you can see exactly what I want to add to my space right now. Plus, a number of these will even make for great gifts [5], if you're still doing your holiday shopping. Take a look and see what you fall in love with.
