When it comes to design, the smallest details can make the biggest difference in any room. And as a renter with limited options for overhauling my own kitchen, I've always relied on impactful decor to create a playful environment where my guests feel comfortable. So when I spotted Costco's adorable Pandex Icon Glasses - a play on one of 2025's most popular glassware designs - I knew I had to check them out.

This cute goose has a magnetic beak that can hold your keys, glasses, scissors, or whatever metal thing you're always misplacing. Set it on a desk, shelf, or entryway table, and suddenly losing your things will be way less common. As one shopper raved, "This goose has been the perfect little addition to my vanity. Overall, he's super cute, but he can also hold stuff as heavy as my pocket knife, and he's the perfect size to hold my hair ties."

In 2021, when squiggles and wiggles took over the home design landscape, glassware was no exception: Zigzagging stems and wobbly silhouettes became regular fixtures on Instagram tablescapes that wholeheartedly embraced whimsy. More recently, the trend has leaned even more surreal, even into the grotesque. Now, more and more glassware looks like it's melting, dripping, or wilting into the surface of whatever table it's perched upon.

Use tequila flutes for a proper sipping experience. This is the best way to enjoy tequila when sipped neat to experience the full breadth of flavors and aromas.

The Crofton Lowball Glasses at Aldi look just like the Fortessa Jupiter glasses that are sold at higher-end decor stores, including World Market.

Bubbles and foam are essential for enhancing the drinking experience, particularly by carrying aroma, which significantly influences perceived flavor for beer enthusiasts.

The shape of the glass you pour your beverage into can impact the way you experience a drink before you take your first sip.
