Tired of Winter? Give Your Home a Tropical Vibe

After the tree has been put away and the holiday magic has disappeared, winter can quickly become dreary. If you find yourself daydreaming of sandy beaches and warm weather, bring the vacation home with the products below. From a tropical-fruit-scented candle to a splurge-worthy margarita maker, these items are sure to make you feel like summer’s just around the corner.

Coconut Coffee Body Scrub

Stash this body scrub in your shower and you’ll feel like you’re sipping coffee in a beachside hotel in Hawaii. Coconut oil moisturizes your skin, while coffee extract adds a rich scent.

You can even mix in a handful of real coffee grounds for a smoother polishing effect or use it on its own for a sweet-smelling wash.

The 2021 Page-a-Day Islands Calendar

This desk calendar includes a new beach or island photo for every day of the year. From green landscapes to turquoise waters, each of the 160 photos is a high-quality square of sunshine. Tearing off a new page is a great way to start your morning.

A Tropical Area Rug

This area rug will brighten up your living room or bedroom and add a tropical feel to your space. The muted palm leaf print will work with any décor, and the sleek material makes it easy to move around. It works for most in- or outdoor spaces.

Monstera Plant

Monstera plants look like they come straight from a Central American jungle, and, as it turns out, they do! Found natively in a stretch of tropical forests from Southern Mexico down to Panama, you can also grow this plant in your home (and many enthusiasts happily do).

This option is a bit less of a hassle, though, because it’s artificial. Still, it’ll add a touch of rainforest to your home without any of the bugs, rain, or humidity that come with the real deal.

Finally! You can be a #plantparent without any of the work!
