Thing of Beauty | The Saje Diffuser

William Morris said “Have nothing in your houses that you do not know to be useful, or believe to be beautiful.” In The Anthology’s new Thing of Beauty column, we highlight the objects that check both boxes.

I’m a creature of habit. And ritual. Before I start writing, I like things to be just so.

My desk needs to be tidy(ish). My Spotify Psybient playlist needs to be pulsing through my Urbanears headphones. And as of my most recent birthday (when I got this as a gift), my Saje ultrasonic diffuser needs to be diffusing the sweet scents of the mountains throughout my office.

It’s become almost as critical to my workday as my laptop. Almost.

Thing of Beauty | The Oskar Humidifier

Ever since I read this post on Cup of Jo, I’ve been obsessed with the idea of getting a humidifier in a desperate attempt to improve our kids’ sleep. (Then again, I’m obsessed with any toddler/preschooler-related sleep hack.) But my kids’ rooms are in such a constant state of toys everywhere chaos, I didn’t want to add anything that felt like visual clutter.

Which is where the Oskar humidifier comes in.

This handsome piece doesn’t actually look like a humidifier at all — it could very well be a super sleek speaker or some sort of Apple product.

And it’s one of those pieces that’ll grow with a family. It’ll fit in with any light, bright kids’ room decor, just as easily as it could fit in with any calm, monochromatic bedroom. So you can rest easy knowing it’ll be with you for the long haul.

Thank you, Eco Brands Now, for sending it my way!
