    39 Things To Make Your Home So Welcoming, People Will Never Want To Leave

    Cozy string lights: check. Snack tray: check. Warm and fuzzy vibes: check and check.

    1. A sweet little welcome mat that'll elicit smiles from everyone as they walk up to your door. First impressions are important!

    Amazon

    Promising review: "Perfect! Great quality. Looks exactly as described. The most welcoming doormat, so glad I got it!" —Litty

    Get it from Amazon for $25.98.

    2. And a felt letter board so you can share customized messages with friends and loved ones upon their arrival. Your guests will feel all warm and fuzzy before they've even stepped foot inside!

    It's a complete set that comes with 300 letters and symbols!

    Promising review: "Oh my gosh. It truly doesn’t get any cuter when it comes to decor. From the moment I opened the package I was enchanted with this product. It takes time and some small scrapbook scissors to cut all the letters apart, but worth the time so they don’t have the little nubs on them. Adorable! I debated giving this as a Christmas gift, but it’s so cute I’ve decided to keep it and get another one. I can’t wait to decorate with it! So many possibilities. Thank you!" —SRiteNow

    Get it from Amazon for $17.99+ (available in four sizes and 27 colors).

    3. A deluxe charcuterie board set that'll have everyone coming back to your place just for the snacks alone. Cheese and crackers (emphasis on the cheese) are always a safe bet, but if you wanna try your hand at one of those viral butter boards, knock yourself out.

    It comes with an extra round tray, two slate labels (with chalk), two ceramic bowls for dipping sauces, and four slicing and serving utensils.

    Promising review: "Bought the product as a present for my partner for the holidays. The charcuterie cheese board itself is great, and the ability to store the cheese knives was an excellent addition for transportation and to 'wow' people at parties. I was able to host twice with the device, and it often was able to hold around six to eight cheeses and cracker combinations reasonably well without feeling like the device is crowded. I also like how easy it was to clean, since the drawer used to store the knives can be easily removed. Finally, I enjoyed all the additional items that came with this set." —Amazon Customer

    Get it from Amazon for $39.99.

    4. A set of "Be Our Guest" hand towels, because even your bathroom should feel welcoming. Just remind your visitors the West Wing is forbidden!

    6. An eye-catching statement shag rug, which is so darn comfy it'll give your couch a run for its money. Once your guests take their shoes off, their feet will be greeted by the *most* plush surface they've probably ever encountered in a home.

    Britt Ross / BuzzFeed

    I moved to a new house last year and it took me FOREVER to get a living room rug because didn't want to settle on just any old thing. I also didn't want to pay the astoundingly high prices I was seeing for other rugs with similar geometric patterns, and when I found this beauty from Wayfair, I thought it was too good to be true. Sure, it looked pretty in the photos, but would it also be comfortable enough for me to run my feet through without feeling like I was walking on sandpaper? I'm here to tell you, the answer is a resounding YES! Not only does it give a warm yet modern feel to my living room, it also feels like an absolute dream on my feet. Plus, anyone I've ever had over has commented on how great it looks. If you're looking for something that'll bring you joy and make you want to give yourself a high-five for such a spot-on purchase every time you look at it, I highly recommend buying this rug! P.S. I bought it in the rust color, but the white is lovely as well! I just don't trust myself to not destroy a white rug less than a week after it's been on my floor...

    Promising review: "Absolutely love this rug! It’s even better in person, I’ve already received so many compliments. The rust-orange color is perfect, looks very expensive." —Madeline

    Get it from Wayfair for $89+ (available in six sizes and 11 styles).

    7. A sleek serving tray that looks way more expensive than it is, but will make your guests feel like they're at a 5-star resort when you use it to serve them breakfast in bed.

    Reviewer close-up of the green and gold tray

    Promising review: "The tray is an attractive contemporary design and easy to handle. Glasses, mugs, and smaller breakfast/lunch/appetizer plates or bowls fit on it. I both got one for myself and for my best friend’s birthday. My lovely friend who has a low-key aesthetic, mid-century house in California really did love the tray. She told me she uses it to bring her breakfast out of her kitchen most mornings to a more relaxing spot." —N. Erdmann

    Get it from Amazon for $36.99+ (available in two sizes and four designs).

    8. A faux floral wreath so you can greet your guests with a welcome burst of spring energy, even when it's a downright dreary 22 degrees.

    Get it from Amazon for $49.99+ (available in 18 styles). 

    9. A cocktail shaker set for whipping up those new drinks you learned how to make on TikTok. Serve them as your guests arrive and they'll ask when they can come back before they've even left. 

    It comes with a shaker with built-in strainer, two pourers, a muddler, jigger, mixing spoon, and velvet carrying bag, along with some cocktail recipe cards!

    Promising review: "This shaker set is great. It is excellent quality and easy to use. My last shaker had issues with taking the cap off for pouring, but this one comes off easily and stays on and doesn't leak while shaking. The speed pourers work and all the extras seem to be of good quality. Love the color and the fact that it comes with a velvet carrying sack for taking to a friend's house. Great purchase!" —Friedchicken879

    Get it from Amazon for $12.64+ (available in four colors). 

    10. And a rolling bar cart that's equal parts decorative and functional. Stock it with your favorite bottles and let your friends fix their own drinks at their leisure throughout the night.

    This cart's dimensions are 32"H x 15"W x 12.25"D.

    Promising review: "This is such a beautiful bar cart! I’m surprised it’s not priced higher for the quality of this product. It’s super easy to assemble and you can fit a lot on it! I’ve tried other carts and I’m very pleased with this. Size, sturdiness, and height are perfection. I wouldn’t even hesitate to purchase this!" —Mikyle Jessen

    Get it from Amazon for $114.99+ (available in gold or black). 

    11. Plus an assortment of Avec's sparkling mixers, which are great to have on hand for guests who aren't drinking alcohol, since they make delicious bevs in and of themselves. They can also be used for whipping up margs and palomas, and can we talk about the *gorgeous* packaging?

    Amazon

    Promising review: "I LOVE this shower curtain. I bought it a couple months ago and still have no complaints. One big desire I had was to make sure whatever shower curtain I had still let in light. I have a small, dark bathroom and wanted a curtain that was cute, cheerful, and bright. Not only does this shower curtain spruce up the bathroom, but it still lets in plenty of light." —Katie

    Get it from Amazon for $23.99 (also available in lemon and orange prints). 

    14. Some string lights that'll give your space the coziest glow, making everyone feel warm and comfy as soon as they enter your home.

    Mason Kreations is a California-based small biz that'll literally light up your life with their fairy string lights. 

    Promising review: "This is my first review on Amazon! I just had to give recognition and praise where deserved. They arrived in great condition and they look amazing. The lights are bright and the wire allows for easy movement. The choices for light settings are great! The picture clips are cute and small so they don't take away from the lights, but they get the job done! I will certainly be ordering some more in the near future!" —Yvette

    Get it from Mason Kreations on Amazon Handmade for $17.99.

    15. A comfy, high-backed rocker so you can literally tell your houseguest to pull up a chair rather than pointing to a pillow on the floor and saying, "Have a seat." This one's both stylish *and* comfy — not as common as you'd think!

    Wayfair

    To help keep this chair in great shape, the manufacturer recommends placing it in an area without lots of direct sunlight and vacuuming/light brushing it every week or so.

    Promising review: "OMG, I love my new rocker!! It is so comfortable. All my friends have sat in it when they come over and they all agree it's so inviting to rock in it! My neighbor helped me put it together and it was easy. Just wish I had an Allen wrench bit for my cordless screwdriver; it would have been faster. All in all, a fabulous purchase!" —Beryl

    Get it from Wayfair for $199.99+ (originally $499.99; available in 15 colors/prints).

    16. Or a faux fur saucer chair that's literally shaped like a hug and will make your guests feel like they're being cradled. Plus, if you're short on space, its snazzy gold legs fold up for easy storage, too!

    Promising review: "Easiest setup in the world! You literally just pull it out of the box and pop it open! Now that’s my kind of setup. Comfortable and cozy, and I’m 6'3. Good for just watching TV if you don’t want to be in bed or reading a good book. Seriously a good buy for the price." —Archie Berwick

    Get it from Amazon for $99.99+ (available in seven colors). 

    17. And a giant beanbag sofa chair you — and anyone else who enters your home — will want to sink into and never leave. It's the perfect thing to have when you invite a group of people over and wanna watch TV, but there's not enough room on the couch.

    The microsuede cover is machine washable, and the memory foam filling adapts to your body's shape and temperature.

    Promising review: "My husband had been showing me ads for these for a while, so finally I got him one for Fathers Day and no regrets! This thing is awesome. My whole family enjoys it for lounging, napping, and it even works for guests that stay the night to sleep on. It’s super comfy — if you’re on the fence, get it! I looked at a bunch of different brands and this was the biggest I found for the price. Love it!" —Amazon Customer

    Get it from Amazon for $159.99+ (available in sizes ranging from 3 feet to 7 feet and in eight colors).

    18. An artificial ficus that'll instantly create a sense of inviting serenity with its lush green leaves. Plus, what could be more calming for you than knowing there's zero maintenance involved?!

    another reviewer's photo of the artificial ficus in a white pot

    Promising review: "This is the most realistic artificial tree or plant that I have ever seen. It is really beautiful and looks the real deal. The leaves are a soft and silky texture and even the bark looks real. It is a welcome addition to my home office and has really made a difference to the room. I absolutely love it. I bought a larger plant pot and filled it with treated moss and just plopped this tree in it and spread the moss around the top. Looks great! This would look great in any room." —MAK

    Get it from Amazon for $62.83+ (available in six sizes).

    19. A stylish and downright luxurious towel warmer so your guests can have a tingly spa experience right in your home 🥰. They'll feel so spoiled! Good luck getting rid of them anytime soon.

    reviewer photo of two white towels inside of the towel warmer

    It fits two large bath towels at a time (getting out of the shower will never be the same!) and you can program the heat in 15-minute intervals up to an hour.

    Promising review: "Absolutely love this warmer. I got this as a Christmas present for myself and use it every time I shower. It is definitely worth the price. I usually put clothing inside first, unravel a towel and place it in next, then turn the warmer on before I shower. In 15–20 minutes, the towel is HOT. If you’re contemplating purchasing this warmer, do yourself a favor and submit your payment ASAP!" —Brittvny Thomvs

    20. A handmade LED bread night-light because nothing says, "This is a safe space" like softly illuminated carbs. Set it near their bed and they'll feel so appreciative that they're not stumbling around in the dark when they get up to pee at 3 a.m.

    Promising review: "As soon as I unwrapped the blanket from its packaging, I knew two things: 1. I did not want to share my new blanket and 2. I was definitely going to have to share my new blanket. 😂 I’ve only had it a few days and whenever I leave it on the bed or couch, my dogs instantly curl up and claim it as their own. It’s just SO soft, I really can’t blame them! It’s perfect to sleep with because it keeps you warm but doesn’t overheat you! I’m very picky when it comes to sleeping temperatures so this blanket is definitely a winner in my eyes." —Alexia Ferra

    Get it from Amazon for $32.99+ (available in eight colors).

    22. Or a cushy faux-fur weighted blanket that'll make them feel like they're being engulfed in a big, warm bear hug. Is there anything more comforting?

They also donate 10% of their sales to organizations dedicated to helping the homeless.

    Promising review: "This blanket is a game changer. I was extremely suspicious of weighted blankets. I tried one several years ago and really didn’t like it. This blanket has completely changed my mind. It’s extremely high quality, evenly weighted, and is so cozy. The faux fur is very soft and my cats love snuggling in it with me. I would definitely recommend this to anyone, especially with severe anxiety like mine. I will be ordering another!" —Alaina

    Get it from Comma Home for $127+ (originally $169+; available in two weights and in brown or gray).

    23. A set of stemless wineglasses to give your guests a little more assuredness when they start making their way over to your new white couch with their drinks.

    Reviewer holding a stemless wine glass filled with beer

    Promising review: "My husband is quite impressed that the glass holds a 12-ounce beer perfectly. I was concerned it would be too large for my small hand, but it’s fine! I’m happy that they are sturdy enough to go in the dishwasher, yet the lip isn’t too thick at all. I plan on ordering more!" —Jan S

    Get a set of four on Amazon for $17.95 (also available in five fun designs).

    24. And a bottle of Wine Away red wine stain remover you can keep close by and bust out as soon as someone inevitably spills their beverage. Once they see how miraculous it is, they'll feel SO much better and can enjoy the rest of the evening without guilt or shame.

    Wine Away is a woman-owned brand based in the US!

    For best results, absorb the excess liquid, then saturate the spot with the stain remover. Let it sit for one to five minutes, then blot it out. This product can also be used on hard surfaces to remove latex paint and grease.

    Promising review: "When you have anything white in your house and you have a love for red wine THIS PRODUCT IS A MUST! We had a dinner party of about 15 people in our house so I bought five bottles just in case. Someone spilled red wine on our brand-new white couch. I was so mad, but I used this stuff and it was GONE. It didn't just take most of the red wine out — the red wine was GONE! No trace of it at all! I will buy more!" —Alial

    Get it from Amazon for $10.38.

    25. An adorable mod table lamp, because having the perfect soft mood lighting is essential when it comes to making any space one your friends will love spending time in again and again. Let's face it, most overhead lights are way too harsh and abrasive, but this one's gentle glow is warm and inviting.

    Promising review: "This is a really nice candy dish. The glass is thick and nicely made. Not at all delicate and very functional. It's deeper than it looks and holds a large quantity. Looks great in my living room and keeps the dogs out of the holiday candy!" —TinaMarie C.

    Get it from Amazon for $14.99.

    27. A highly-rated tea assortment, because is there anything more inviting than being offered a piping hot cup of chamomile? I think not!

    This set comes with eight flavors, including regular and decaf English breakfast, earl grey, lemon and orange, green tea with jasmine, assam, organic chamomile, and organic peppermint.

    Promising review: "First of all, the packaging is really beautiful. Comes in a sturdy cardboard box and looks nice enough that you could leave it out on the counter. The inside of the box's lid has information about the company if you're interested in a quick read while your tea steeps. Each tea bag is individually wrapped and has instructions on how long to brew it. The English Breakfast, Pure Assam, and Earl Grey are all very delicious (as that is all I have tried, so far). If you're looking for a nice variety of tea to serve at parties, the office, or your favorite house guests, this is highly recommended." —salty.spitoon.executive

    28. A ceramic oil diffuser that'll make your home smell so good, everyone might just need a moment to stop what they're doing and inhale. Fill it with your favorite oils so your friends can revel in the bliss that is a superbly scented space.

    Reviewers say you'll barely hear this diffuser while it's on, and its automatic shutoff function is another much appreciated feature. It's designed to run for up to five hours and comes with nine LED light settings for a gentle glow.

    Promising review: "I love this diffuser so much. It easily releases a great amount of scent throughout a larger space if you put about eight drops of your choice of essential oil. It's absolutely beautiful, and I'm already planning on buying more for other rooms in my house." —Cassie

    Get it from Amazon for $42.99+ (available in two sizes) — don't forget to apply the coupon to save 10%!

    29. A bottle of "popular for a reason" Poo-Pourri your guests will feel eternally grateful for when they realize they'll be spending, well, more time in your b-room than they'd thought 😬

    There are dozens of scents to choose from, with everything from Wild Poppy Berry to, yes, Royal Flush, so pick your poison!

    Promising review: "I was hesitant to use this product. It seemed silly, but finally broke down and bought some; this smells SO GOOD! My sister asked what was in my bathroom that smelled so great, and when I told her, she had to have some too. Makes a great funny gift they will actually love!" —Josie Morehead

    Get it from Amazon for $7.99+ (available in 12 sizes and dozens of scents). 

    30. A highly rated portable Bluetooth speaker that'll fill the room with pro-sounding music to help set a lively, convivial tone (while drowning out the sound of your upstairs neighbors screaming). Only fun, friendly vibes here!

    It's also waterproof, making it great for outdoor use as well. 

    Promising review: "I don’t write a lot of reviews. Normally, a product meets my expectations. And if it doesn’t, I send it back without complaining. But this speaker vastly exceeded my expectations and thought I should share. This tiny thing can boom sound like no other speaker of its size. I blasted the speaker full volume in a room downstairs. A few rooms and a flight of stairs away, I could still hear every lyric to the song I was playing. (You can tell I got a bit excited). It instantly connected to my phone via Bluetooth. It also seems sturdy enough that it can be knocked around a bit, which is helpful to me since I’d use it outside a lot. It’s the smallest portable speaker I’ve ever used, yet produces more sound without any distortion at high volumes. The quality of the sound at all levels is phenomenal. I’m excited to see what mileage I get out of it. But as far as I can tell, this speaker is the best one you can get for this amount of money. And I’d argue it’s worth more." —Connor

    Get it from Amazon for $29.59+ (available in black or blue).

    31. A super cool (hot?) portable fireplace you can light up when you wanna make your guests comfy by the fire...but don't have an actual hearth. Just set it up on a table and enjoy the soothing glow!

    Get it from Amazon for $49.96+ (available in concrete, black, and customized concrete). 

    32. A cute tufted throw pillow that basically screams "Come sit on me!" from any chair or couch you put it on. Plus, it's the very definition of ~a pop of color~ if your space could use a little livening up.

    Promising review: "Love the linen scent! I’ve been trying to rid my home of other sprays/candles/products that have yucky chemicals. As I’m replacing with safe products, it’s been hard to order scents online before smelling. I’ve struck out with other companies a couple of times, but I love everything I’ve purchased from here. The scents are so light and refreshing. Perfect! Thank you!!!" —Rachel May

    Get it from Eight Hands Farm & Bee Co. on Etsy for $12 (available in 14 scents). 

    34. A trio of colorful striped bath towels so you'll have a nice, dedicated set for overnight guests that...aren't your threadbare ones from college 👀. Look at you being all hospitable!

    Reviewers suggest washing them before using to get rid of any stray lint, and say they get fluffier the more you wash them!

    Promising review: "I’m impressed with the great quality of these towels for the price! They are soft and thick, and super absorbent! They wash very nicely and the quality has been maintained over multiple washes! The first time you dry check and empty your lint trap half way through the cycle. Mine was overfilled the first time I dried them. I love them so much I’m going to buy another pack. Definitely worth the money!" —David

    35. A sunrise-simulating alarm clock to help anyone who spends the night wake up on the right side of the bed, since they'll be able to forego their jarring phone alarm. With this, they'll feel like they're waking up as the sun rises — a much more pleasant experience.

    It's also a radio, and comes with seven colored lights to choose from, as well as three natural sounds to relax to.

    Promising review: "Mornings have been so much better since purchasing and using this product. The old way of using a radio for an alarm clock never did the job. We were used to a blaring radio in the dark, and it never really helped us to wake up well. We typically hit the snooze button several times and, while groggy, found a light switch nearby and tried to start the day. This light truly mimics a sunrise (from red hues to yellow to more white) as it starts minutes before the actual alarm goes off. We have it set to 10 minutes (but you can customize it to an interval of your choosing). In those minutes prior to the alarm going off, the gentle light cycle comes on and starts the waking process. I have found that it causes us to be more alert when the radio feature in the alarm goes off. (There is a snooze feature that causes the radio and light to go off for a few minutes). I have found myself more focused in the mornings and enjoy waking up with a more pleasant and controlled light. Very good price!! Highly recommend!" —gr8maestro

    36. A set of solar garden lights that'll gently illuminate your yard and walkway — a thoughtful gesture when you have guests coming and going after the sun has set. Best of all, no charging required!

    Promising review: "I love these lights! I've had other solar lights that still needed batteries and they would run out. These are great because they don't need batteries. They're very bright after charging all day in the sun. Make sure that they are installed where the sun hits for at least a few hours. They were easy to install as they have a stake that attaches to it so you can just push it into the ground. Great value for the amount you get! Would buy again." —Beth

    Promising review: "I bought several of these to place in hanging baskets. I put them near entryways and near seating so as to fully appreciate the soft aroma of lavender and to enjoy its calming effect on myself and others. Lavender is, also, quite lovely to look at and so it adds a lovely touch to any room." —mega

    39. And finally, a positively perky fruit print, because when life gives you lemons, hang 'em on your wall for all to admire! It's impossible to feel anything short of welcome when you enter a space containing artwork this cheery, and those vintage vibes are ~chef's kiss~.

    This print doesn't come with a frame, but if you like a wooden frame like the photo on the left, this is a good option, and if you prefer the black frame on the right, this one's similar!
