The Editors’ Cut: New Year, 12 New Upgrades on the Basics

Welcome to The Editors’ Cut, our recently launched column dedicated to beautiful and useful finds for all over the house. Each month, we’ll share the products we’ve coveted, purchased, and kept open in our browser tabs, plus the tried-and-tested essentials we swear by. In this installment: When was the last time you swapped out your bath mat? Or your down comforter? If your answer is “sometime in the 2010s”—or if you’ve patched, mended, and cleaned all you can–perhaps it’s time to trade in the threadbare for new, well-made workhorses that will last. And the new year is just the time to do it. Here are our picks, for whichever staples need freshening. — The Remodelista Editors
