The most-purchased items this month
The most-purchased items in August were determinedly summery. Tools to help prep stuff for the grill, a party game for groups, sleep masks to block out the early-rising sun, and a lipstick that gives a sheen of cherries. Also — two different kind of earplugs for those going to festivals (or just sleeping late).

And an “Ask the Strategist” on adult stuffy storage from theStrategist Daily.
“I’m an accidental-on-purpose stuffed-animal adult, which is all fun and games until my partner moves in next month! I need to come up with a storage solution that keeps the stuffed animals from ending up on the floor every night, and something marginally attractive that doesn’t involve shoving them all under my bed would be ideal. Just trying to weather the horrors by surrounding myself with cute things, but not trying to become a Display Case person.”

I think you should get another laundry basket — most should come with the right dimensions for a well-fed Squishmallow and could be shoved into a closet if a Jellycat needs a nap. I likeDusen Dusen’s; it’s printed on the inside. If you don’t mind a teddy bear’s ears sticking out from the top, maybeHay’s. From Anthropologie:thisorthat. (There’s also fruit-shaped wicker —pear,apple, andwatermelon— on the site.) Salter House sellsthese(hat tip to my editor Hilary Reid) — the large and extra-large sizes may be sold out, but you might be able to get away with the medium size. Or you could even try a trunk at the foot of your bed. (The kids’ ottomans will often be cheaper than the ones for adults.)Teen Pottery Barnhas one for only $79, whileWest Elm Kidshas another on sale for $200. And if your stuffies are ever naughty, they can go intoCrate & Barrel’szoo cage. —Ambar Pardilla, writer
