Frame Ornaments

Obviously, I’m shopping the sales for next year’s holiday decor. Why not peruse the discounts (specifically via Juliska, Pottery Barn, and Frontgate) and score serious deals while you can? I found some stunning frame ornaments which were sadly sold out, but it did give me the idea to put our family Christmas photo in a frame every year to hang on our tree. I love the idea of seeing this collection grow year after year. I opted for this style from Shutterfly. They’re beautiful and so easy to order, you just upload your photos!

My Favorite Extra Large Water Tumblers and Metal Straws

I love my beautiful glassware, but I don’t love constantly refilling 10 oz water glasses all day. I also don’t love the feeling of using a travel Yeti or HydroFlask while just relaxing at home. These extra large, 32 oz plastic tumblers that I pair with my favorite metal straws, are my ideal solution to wanting to be both hydrated and not annoyed all day long. Basically, they’re a more acceptable version of the GIANT stadium and Taco Bell plastic cups my brothers would bring home which I secretly loved using because of their huge size. I also love these…

Baby Bow Storage

I had you at the name, didn’t I? Because the apple does not fall far from the tree, Colette’s hair accessory situation is… abundant. I just bought this adorable storage solution for her bows and headbands that also works as a pretty display of cuteness. Honestly, I want one.

China and Dish Storage

If you’re putting away all of your holiday dishes and servingware, only to discover that you have essentially zero protection for your beloved pieces apart from like… a bare shelf, look into these perfect storage pieces. The reason they’re ideal is that they’ve got hard exterior covers, so you can protect your dishes and also stack your storage pieces. The felt dividers help ensure that each individual piece is perfectly protected until you need to use them again.

Wax Candle Adapters

These little wax candle adapters are GENIUS, and work incredibly well. They’re little malleable dots that you adhere to the bottom of your candles to sturdily secure them to any surface. These adapters are a genuine game-changer for anyone who loves tall tapered or straight candles on the dining table but struggles to make them stand up straight. If crooked candles on your table drive you crazy and/or you have larger candles that always want to slip off of their decorative bases, these are your new best friend.

Oil Sprayer

Holiday cooking made it abundantly clear to me that I need a few new strategies for efficiently…you know, FEEDING MY FAMILY. This oil sprayer is one of those kitchen tools that helps you streamline what you’re doing and helps keep your kitchen ever so slightly more equipped for cleaner cooking. You can spray your pan before cooking, but I find it most helpful when roasting vegetables or anything that needs a nice coating of olive oil. Instead of pouring the oil from the bottle and trying to toss things around, this spray allows for a much more evenly-distributed coating.

Replacements, LTD

Memorandum readers know I love china—in fact, I just shared our Christmas table on instagram over the weekend. Since many of you share my love for special tableware, I figured it’s high time I let you in on one of my all-time favorite shopping destinations: Replacements Ltd. Honestly, shopping on this site is basically a sport for me at this point. You can find great deals on all of your favorite china, dinnerware and serveware pieces, but Replacements is perhaps best known for their incredible collection of vintage and discontinued patterns. You can find pieces you’re missing (or that have…
