In a world where we are all connected, it can be challenging to find unique items to show off to guests. That’s why I’ve created this list of awesome unique items that can’t be found in any other home. Items range from gazebo mesh that is both stylish and provides protection from bugs to a neat solar water fountain to personalized cutting boards. I even have a selection of handcrafted items that are customizable to suit your home decor, making them one-of-a-kind regardless of who else purchases them. This list even contains a nice stained glass piece, which is not something that is commonly found anymore. When looking for stylish and unique items that your friends might not have, look no further than the products that Amazon Canada has to offer.
Keep Remotes Together in a Nifty Wall Caddy
Most people have their remotes in a container or on the living room table, but do they have a wall caddy? Sunficon offers a cool wall-mounted caddy that is held in place with adhesive. It is perfect for storing remote controls, stationery supplies, cellphones, or even scissors. Despite the fact that the caddy only comes in a couple of colours, it comes with a detachable bamboo board that divides the holder into two sections. But the best part about the wall caddy is the convenient hollow bottom that allows for charging cables to reach your cellphone! You won’t find that kind of brilliant design in someone else’s home!
Play Some Card Games in the Sun
There are times when more people visit than we have chairs and tables for. In cases like this, it might be a great idea to have a folding table and chairs. It might not be the first thing you think of that other houses might not have, but folding tables are multifunctional. Not only are they great for setting up inside the house when there are unexpected guests, but it is also great for outdoor gatherings. The steel frame is durable and the tabletop is made from plastic, which is able to hold 80 pounds of weight. Another great feature of this foldable table is the rubber feet designed to grip the floor surface and prevent damage.
Sit Comfortably in This Cool Beanless Inflatable Chair
Who doesn’t love a comfortable seat? Intex has us covered with an inflatable beanless chair that harkens back to the glory days of bean bag chairs. This particular seat comes in beige and is sized at 42 by 41 by 27 inches. What makes this product more interesting than others is that it can deflate and fold up for easy storage. Plus, it’s quite comfortable for watching movies, reading books, or lounging around. Since most of us don’t want the hassle of a traditional bean bag chair, this inflatable version is a piece that will stand out when peers visit your place!
Hang Your Fish on the Wall for a Unique Room Look
If you’re looking for something unique to display in your home, look no further than this acrylic hanging fish tank. Unlike other fish tanks, this particular kind is wall mounted. It is lightweight and durable, allowing for some peace of mind that glass bowls or aquariums don’t afford. This design is unique compared to anything else on the market and definitely makes a statement. But my favorite part about this hanging fish bowl is that it’s easy to set up! It only takes a screw to hold it up.
Display Your Fish in Style with a Half-Moon Fish Tank
Aquariums have come a long way from what they used to be in that there are different styles of fish tanks available. One such example is this awesome half-moon fish tank that comes with a cycling colour-changing light disc. This tank also comes equipped with an internal power filter that keeps your tank clean. A cool feature about the fish tank is the clear canopy has a hole to allow for easy feeding. It’s the perfect size for a goldfish or three community tropical fish. It is a great addition to an office or a kid’s room.
Show Off Your Best TV Angles
Most houses have cool entertainment units or most people have their TVs mounted on the wall. But how many people do you know that have an adjustable swivel stand that can support TVs between 27 and 55 inches wide? Not many! Stand out from the crowd by owning a sleek swivel stand made from a tempered glass base with a sturdy pole to support the weight. Also, the unit allows for clean cable management that won’t be seen by TV viewers. The swivel can move a full 60 degrees to ensure the perfect TV angle. For added safety, the swivel stand also comes with non-slip rubber feet that protect flooring and ensures a solid grip that prevents any accidents. Besides, you won’t find one of these in just any household!
Let Children Bunk Together in Style
It’s not often that homes have bunk beds for kids, but when there aren’t many rooms and several children, it might be a worthy investment. Amazon Canada has a solution with their metal bunk bed. Unlike other models, this one is designed to be a bit shorter than the average which is perfect for young children. The unit comes with secured metal slats and a ladder that attaches to the top bunk. The top bunk is fully outfitted with guard rails to ensure safety. This bunk bed also fits two standard twin-size mattresses that aren’t included in the package. Why not keep a modern look while still standing out among your friends?
Organize Your Bedroom with This
We all have nightstands, but do we have an adhesive bedside shelf that can store cellphones, glasses, remotes, or figurines? This wall-mounted shelf attaches to surfaces with strong double-sided tape. Not only does it eliminate the need to buy matching nightstands, but the self-adhesive shelf is only 8.2 inches square. The shelf is made from plastic and is perfect for holding small items as it has two shelves. Plus, it is the perfect match for rooms with bunk beds!
Entertaining Guests for a Short While?
Not all houses have a guest room to put up people for a couple of days. In fact, not all houses have a pullout bed or even a hide-a-bed for guests. Instead of offering them the couch, why not try this inflatable sofabed? This queen-sized inflatable sofa by Intex is the perfect choice for guests. The sofa is made from plush materials and has a velvety surface for comfort. It is easy to inflate and deflate for use and storage. Plus, the couch has two handy cup holders. I think what’s especially fantastic about this product is that it’s great for travelling. Besides, not only do people lack options for guests — especially for small apartments, but most sleeping choices aren’t as chic.
Save the Wildlife
An item that most people wouldn’t even consider buying if they have an outdoor pool is an inflatable escape ramp. You never know when a frog or critter will get caught in your pool with no way out, which is why having one of these ramps is handy to have. This rescue ramp is made from premium oxford and mesh that has an inflatable mat inside. The mat has a mesh outer ring for critters to get onto and the ramp helps them get up to safety. It is easy to set up and won’t float away! It’s definitely not something most people would have for their homes, so be sure to buy a set of two and save the critters.
Keep the Bugs Away While Sunbathing!
Ever want to lounge around on a backyard hammock without worrying about insects? Now it’s possible with a handy extra large mosquito net. The two ends have large openings to move easily through, but will still keep the bugs out. Large mosquito nets come with seven hooks and screws plus extra string and a carrying pouch to bring along to camping trips. What’s great about this large net is that it is machine washable, so I never have to worry about how much it’s used indoors and outdoors. It’s definitely not something that most people have in their homes.
Sit Comfortably in the Great Outdoors
When the weather is beautiful, it’s important to have a solid outdoor patio chair set. This set of two zero gravity chairs comes with a side table. The seats have removable headrest pillows and cupholders for convenience. Each chair is made from durable steel to withstand harsh elements. The chairs are able to flatten for compact storage and easy transportation. But that’s not the only great feature about the set, the table also has cupholders. How many people can say they have a comfortable and portable chair set like this one?
Create Flashy Water Displays
The summer continues to scorch the lands and more wildlife is affected by the heat. Not only are birds affected by the current weather conditions, but so are squirrels, chipmunks, and rabbits. Getting a nice-looking outdoor piece that will also help beat the heat is this nice solar birdbath fountain by AMZtime. It is designed with six nozzles to create a beautiful and refreshing water display for your backyard ponds, bird baths, and patios. The solar fountain has double nozzles that change the spray effect. It can also be adjusted so that the nozzle doesn’t spray enough to overflow. The fountain is built with its own filtration to help block leaves and dust from the nozzles for the best results. And since it doesn’t require any batteries or external installation, it is easy to have an operational fountain in no time. This is guaranteed to be something that your friends won’t have at their homes.
Stop Insects in Their Tracks
Do you have a simple outdoor gazebo to protect you from the sun and the rain? You might, but do you have a mesh curtain to stop insects from getting to you? Ozark offers a four-sided curtain that does just that. It is easy to install on an existing gazebo frame, allows for a nice breeze, and keeps bugs and critters out. It has an easy access entrance and exit point to use as needed. Get one for the gazebo today!
Show Off Your Unique Style
Having a stylish patio set is an important part of any backyard space. BestOffice has a unique wicker patio set complete with two chairs, a loveseat, and a table. Made with a metal framework to keep it sturdy, it comes with all of the hardware necessary to easily put together. The coffee table is made from high-quality tempered glass that is suitable for drinks and food of all types. Plus, it is a stylish brown set with cream cushions that make a nice aesthetic statement. Be sure to purchase this set for your home from Amazon Canada.
Protect Your Privacy
Apartment living can be uninspiring with its restrictive options for interior and exterior design. Even in those cases, we have you covered with a simple privacy fence cover that is perfect for balconies, courtyards, roofs, and porch decks. This privacy screen protects you from prying eyes. Made from high-quality HDPE special cloth that is durable, anti-aging, and tear-resistant. It also withstands UV rays and is weather resistant. The screen comes with zip ties to make it easy to install as well. Not only does this make my balcony look cool, but it also gives me some much-needed privacy.
Cool Off in an above-Ground Pool for the Family!
With this blazing heat, investing in an outdoor pool of any kind might be a good idea. This natural rattan above-ground pool has a sturdy metal frame that snaps into place making it easy to set up. It’s made with durable three-ply Toughmesh material, which ensures that it won’t puncture easily. It comes with a SkimmerPlus filter pump, a filter cartridge, and a repair patch to use. The whole pool is about 10 feet in diameter and looks stylish in the backyard. While it’s no Olympic-sized pool, it’ll work for family fun in the sun.
Lounge Outside on a Chic Hammock
It’s important to relax once in a while and by that, I mean in a stylish hammock that is perfect for use by the water, when camping, or even in the backyard. It is 78.5 by 59 inches, which is a ton of room for anyone who wants to lounge all day. The hammock is also lightweight enough to transport anywhere. Its detachable bamboo bars fold into a manageable size and will fit neatly in the included storage bag. The hammock is specially designed to remain upright, so there is no risk of flipping over. Plus, it is strong enough to support 441 pounds, meaning I can hang out together with another person. Make your friends jealous by grabbing this hammock for your home!
Shield Your Home
This shield made from resin is painted black and silver colours to look like a real piece of armour out of Lord of the Rings and Silmarillion novels. It is handcrafted and delicate so it only serves as a decorative wall piece. One of the reasons that the shield can’t be found in other homes is the fact that each piece is different. Another point about each shield is they are fan-inspired and not replicas of the franchises. I can feel confident that my mini wall shield is one-of-a-kind.
Beat the Heat
Not everyone likes to look at the weather network for their driving conditions. If you’re one of those people who likes to know what the day or the week will be like, look no further than a handy indoor thermometer. Made by Geevon, this wireless thermometer displays the temperature both indoors and outdoors. It is colourful and displays every bit of information needed to go about your day. What’s great about this particular thermometer is that it has a USB charging port and adjustable backlighting for convenience during the day or the night. An extra feature included is the ability to use it as an alarm clock making it perfect for your nightstand. It’s definitely not a product that other homes would have, so why not grab one for yours?
Capture Guest Imagination
Have you ever walked into a home that had such beautiful artwork that you just had to have it? Well, there are tons of different artists and styles to suit anyone’s tastes, but sometimes there is one piece that simply captures the imagination. So Crazy Art offers a five-piece wall art painting of a mountainous landscape near a beautiful lake. This particular art piece was done with oil paints and is a perfect centrepiece for the living room, dining room, or bedroom. The five-piece art set is framed and spans 40.6 by 25.4 centimetres. So Crazy Art pieces are made from high-quality waterproof materials. It is completely ready to hang on the wall as it comes with invisible hooks.
Keep Warm with a Heated Blanket
As the night drags on and the season gets shorter, it will be important to have an electric heated blanket for the cold days or cool nights. This heated blanket is suitable for a twin-size bed that is 62 by 84 inches. It comes equipped with four different heating levels and a nine-hour automatic shut-off. I love that this particular heated blanket is completely machine washable, has fast heating, and is easy to use. Another great feature about the blanket is that it comes with overheat protection so that you never have to worry about causing harm.
Do Friends Have a Convenient Baby Bottle Dry Rack?
When you have children, you end up adding to your daily and weekly cleaning tasks. That’s why it’s important to have a way to get that cleaning done without taking up extra space. Oxo Tot offers a handy drying rack for baby bottles. It is space efficient as it can sit up against the kitchen wall by the sink. The unit itself has angled pegs that hold several bottles at a time. The top and bottom of the unit have space to hold pacifiers, lids, and bottle nipples. It’s the perfect item for your home that most parents wouldn’t think of getting for themselves — until now!

Ansee, an Amazon company, sells this inexpensive and introductory 3D printer for beginners. The unit is big enough to print anything that will fit on an 80 mm square surface.

Trap Fowl Cat Odours Inside a Sleek LitterLocker
Cats are notorious for making a big mess in the litter box. To avoid a dirty and disgusting job, look no further than a LitterLocker cat litter disposal unit.

It is designed with a lid to trap odours from offending the people at home. Not only does the LitterLocker make it easy to dispose of the contents, but it also looks good in any room.

Honour the Native American Peoples with an Inukshuk
As a Canadian, Native symbolism has become more prevalent over the years — for good reason. And it’s important to learn and understand the history surrounding the Native American peoples. One of the most prominent symbols that Canadians have grown up with is an Inukshuk, which was commonly used as a navigational aid or as a marker of sacred places. In 1999, Nunavut became a separate territory and when that happened, the people chose an Inukshuk to be the symbol on their flag. For those of us who want to honour the Native Peoples, having an Inukshuk is a good starting place for discussion. This Inukshuk is handmade right here in Canada.
Show Off Your Pipe in Style
It may not be commonplace to see a person that smokes a pipe, but they exist. The next unique item on this list is a fashionable pipe holder. Each holder is made from real ash tree wood. The total length is approximately 2.5 inches and it is about 2.5 inches in height. Fashion Pipes handmakes their own pipes and pipe holders, so you know you are getting quality products.
Catch the Sun’s Twinkle
Unfortunately, stained glass pieces are uncommon as it is a dying art form. However, there are still places that make beautiful art pieces with stained glass that are made in Wainfleet, Canada. This handmade stained glass suncatcher is of the Northern Lights during the colder months. It is finished with a dark-coloured grout to really emphasize the scene. The whole image is permanently mounted in a solid wooden frame. Plus, the pine tree detail is hand-painted using specialized glass painting.
