BuzzFeed editor Elizabeth Lilly recently shared her love for a whimsical tissue box cover, and her reasoning behind it is both relatable and humorous. In a recent post, Lilly revealed that as an adult woman, she couldn’t remember the last time she bought a box of tissues for her home. However, she does have several purse packs, indicating that she’s not completely devoid of tissues in her life.
Lilly admitted that the reason she’s been so bad at keeping around a box of tissues is because they just look “kind of ugly” out in the open. However, with the addition of the whimsical tissue box cover, the tissues have transformed into a “design element” that she’ll hopefully remember to keep full. Currently, the box is filled with a square box of tissues that she unearthed from her old apartment’s closet while packing, adding a quirky touch with the “smoke” for the tiny chimney.
The only downside, according to Lilly, is that she’ll now have to commit to buying square-shaped tissue boxes only. But for the love of the whimsical tissue box cover, she’s more than willing to make that sacrifice. The article also mentioned that the price of the cover is $8, making this adulting purchase both practical and affordable.
Lilly’s honest and lighthearted take on her quest for “peak adulting” has resonated with many readers and has generated a buzz on social media. Many people have found her sentiments regarding tissue boxes to be relatable, and some have even been inspired to make similar changes in their own homes.
The whimsical tissue box cover has received recognition and praise in numerous BuzzFeed shopping posts, and now, with Lilly’s stamp of approval, it’s sure to become a must-have item for many seeking to elevate their tissue game.
