For me, the months spent at home during our “quarantine” were filled with a lot of home projects and self-care routines. I tried to balance the “cleaning out” undertakings with the skincare and new product “research” activities. To accomplish most of these tasks I turned to the one place where I could purchase the necessary items: trusty Amazon. While I have been trying to shop locally more often, I felt like I had no choice while stuck at my house. Each week, I made plans to clean out a certain closet (or attic!) as well as try something new to help me adjust and relax. The cookie baking (and eating) got old really quick, so I also tried to focus on tasks that helped me to stay calm and feel better (in between cooking and cleaning). Here are some of the highlights from my cart:
For relaxing during the day: Little Secrets by Jennifer Hillier $18
For cozying up on the couch: Cynthia Rowley snow leopard plush throw $66
To wear during the day for comfort: Coobie seamless bra $20
To assist me in donating old clothes: Ikea heavy duty storage bags $24

For pajama comfort during the day: Tie-dye pajama set $25
For a shot of some healthy veggies: Balance green superfood shot $40/doz
