From clever coffee table books to our favorite heirloom mixing bowls to a heated bidet seat that will change your life - there’s something for any home dweller. Price points start at $8.

A coffee table book is always a great gift no matter the occasion. The first book is actually a beautiful disguise for a budding artist’s masterpieces (aka your kids’ art) and the second book displays an established artist’s masterpieces ;)
