Great curtains don't just offer privacy and light control — they also set the tone for the whole room, adding personality and pizazz. Going for something bohemian and casual? Consider one of our new favorites: A two-tone striped cotton set with tasteful fringe. Or if cottage-core-chic is more your vibe, we are especially enamored by a cheery gingham set that's "so soft you could sleep under them."

If you're trying to reduce your exposure to plastics and non-stick coatings without causing yourself total panic or stress, sustainability editor Katie Okamoto and kitchen editor Marilyn Ong have some advice on where to focus your energy. One suggestion they share in this week's episode of The Wirecutter Show: Determine your "exposure budget." Which products and materials do you want to focus on eliminating, based on how important they are to you? Then, prioritize replacing those things with kitchen gear that will last. Have an air fryer with a non-stick basket? Swap it for a toaster oven. Or, replace plastic food storage containers with glass ones. These alternatives can pose fewer health concerns — and many will last a lifetime. Your daily deal: A luxe set of silk pillowcases |
