Aroma diffusers have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’m someone who strives to create a peaceful oasis throughout my spaces, for example, my bedroom. In an effort to construct the calmest and…

After seeing this machine that projected pure happiness on a wall go viral on social media, I knew I needed to have it. The sunset lamp, a contraption that supposedly “cures depression” for just $20, was instantly added to my…

My trash monster was created with only gut feelings. I went into the creation with specific aspects already established (the spiked tea bag weapon, the long, hammerhead-esque beer can head, and the belt of wrappers) but with no experience in…
