A scrubbing brush that also dispenses soap…
Dirty dishes are no match for this brush. Its nylon bristles will power through grease, while its built-in scraper will tackle caked-on food. Plus, you’ll be able to add soap with just a press of a button. ($8.99, Target)
An avocado tool that can cut, pit, and slice…
Avo toast for breakfast? Coming right up. This three-in-one tool will easily cut through the fruit’s skin, remove the pit, and create uniform slices fit for Instagram. Seriously. Your breakfast never looked this good. ($9.99, Target)
A coffee scoop that’ll double as a bag clip…
Start your morning off right thanks to this handy clip that’ll do two jobs for the price of one. Two important jobs. Because a fresh cup of coffee in the morning is essential. ($5, Urban Outfitters)
A multi-tool that belongs in every kitchen…
Seriously. It’s a cheese grater, zester, garlic crusher, peeler, carving fork, stirring spoon, corkscrew, bottle opener, channel knife, serrated knife, small paring knife, and can opener. All in one. ($32, Uncommon Goods)
A credit card-sized tool that’ll fit in your wallet…
Because you always wanna be 100% prepared. This tiny tool has 12 functions for everyday needs. Like a letter opener, phone stand, and screwdriver. ($19.95, The Grommet)

Touching random doors and keypads? No, thank you. Limit the amount of things you make contact with thanks to this keychain. Goodbye, icky germs. ($9.75/2, Amazon)

We’re talking slotted spoon, solid spoon, spatula, turner, and cutting tool. Meal prep has never been this easy. ($19.25, Amazon)
A universal balm that’ll work on your lips (and everywhere else)...
It’s got antioxidants to relieve dryness. It also comes in flavors, or you can stick with the original formula and use it on your hands, elbows, and feet. The beeswax will act as a protective barrier over your skin. ($12, Glossier)
A power pad that can charge three devices at once…
Like AirPods, an iPhone (or Android), and an Apple Watch. No more low battery warnings. ($100, Case-Mate)

Aka, both pillars and tea lights. So your holiday table will look beyond chic. Just flip ‘em over if you want a change. ($34/set of 3, Food52)
A toothbrush holder that also dispenses toothpaste…
Welcome to the one-stop shop. This wall unit can hold up to five toothbrushes, two bottles of toothpaste, and four cups for gargling and rinsing. You’ll get every bit of toothpaste out without having to squeeze the bottle yourself. ($19.99+, Amazon)
