Promising review: "I researched so many coffee warmers and am so glad I decided on this one. It definitely keeps my coffee hot, no matter how long it takes me to drink it. I also like that it has three settings. As you drink down your coffee, you can lower the heat because it keeps the coffee very hot. I like it so much I ordered a second one for another part of the house." —hottytoddy

Promising review: "I got this mouse, and it is lovely! It is very elegant, just what I was looking for to brighten up my old black laptop! My old wireless mouse had stopped working, and this is a great upgrade. The design is ergonomic, your hand rests in a natural, neutral position rather than in a claw, since it is flat and smooth. The scroll wheel is a ball but only goes up and down, not side to side, which is fine for my purposes. The click still audible, but very very soft, and I think it will be good for the library where sometimes a regular mouse clicking sounds too loud. I like that it has an on/off button for when it is not in use and inside the laptop bag. I thought it was so pretty that I am going to buy a second one in white and gold to match my desktop." —Jessica

I bought this coaster for myself back around the holidays after someone on the team shared the shop with me. I was obsessed with the coaster and all the fun pop-culture references. I've used it every day since buying it, and it's held up great. It holds all kinds of drinks, and the lip ensures that no condensation gets anywhere near my laptop. I picked this quote because it's from one of my fave TSwift songs, but the shop also has quotes from Schitt's Creek, Bravo, Sex and The City, or an option where you can customize it with whatever quote you want.

Get it from Salut Design Shop on Etsy for $18 (available in three shapes).
