The consumer frenzy that is the holiday season has died down, but there's no rest for the weary—or the wicked. Now that we're smack in the middle of "Bad Winter", you might as well take a long, hard look at your belongings and see if they can't use a little refresh. Ahead, some excellent deals for every room of the home on products that will make your life slightly better in every which way, be it comfort, aesthetics, or, ideally, a combination of both. 

Acryclic storage bins are one way to organize your things, but these Shoji-inspired bamboo bins for the pantry from Ms. Organization herself, Marie Kondo, are on sale and, dare we say, beautiful?

Mealtime, with a spark of joy.Marie suggests thinking beyond the kitchen.
