    31 Practical Yet Gorgeous Things From Wayfair You’ll Probably Feel Smart For Owning

    There's only one thing better than buying cute stuff for your house, and that's buying cute stuff for your house that actually does something.

    1. A mid-century-style velvet bench that flips open, revealing lots of hidden space to store all of your extremely modern stuff.

    2. A set of three versatile geometric nesting tables with faux marble surfaces and gold-tone steel bases, so you can reorganize your living room depending on your needs — use them in different parts of the room when you're having guests over for cocktails, stow them away when you're cleaning, or set them up together to create one big coffee table, Voltron-style.

    The tables, which have a hexagonal surface space and tripod legs

    3. An ultra-modern, sculptural coat rack that basically just looks like a work of art, but can also hold 5 pounds of weight on each flip-down hook.

    4. A reclaimed wood coffee table with two large cubbies, so you can have the midcentury modern design touches you love, like hairpin legs, and the open storage space you desperately need.

    5. A set of four stainless-steel-and-glass kitchen canisters that are way chicer than Tupperware, sandwich bags, old yogurt containers, or whatever else you're currently using to store your bulk foods.

    The four canisters, which are cylindrical and each a slightly different height

    6. Or a set of three textured ceramic kitchen canisters with wooden lids, so you can finally give your ground coffee the luxe home it deserves.

    The canisters, which have flat wooden tops and a hexagonal textured pattern on their surfaces, in mint green

    7. A sleek, futuristic-looking bread box, because you have to admit it — you've been baking bread for over a year now, and you have still not figured out the correct place to store it (besides your mouth).

    8. A tufted mid-century arm chair with solid wood legs and an extra-broad seat, so everyone can sit comfortably — the upright-sitters, the crisscrossers, and yes, even the one-legs-hanging-over-one-of-the-arm-ers (you weirdos).

    The chair, which has a hexagonal back panel and wooden splayed legs, in orange

    9. A square-arm velvet sleeper sofa that folds down into a bed, so you don't have to choose between midcentury glam and making your mom sleep on the floor when she visits.

    The couch, which has square arms and back, in pink

    10. A whimsical, monochromatic house-shaped tissue box, because nothing will ruin your careful design scheme like a random Kleenex box with Spider-Man on it (NOT that there is anything wrong with Spider-Man).

    The tissue box, which is shaped like a house with a peaked roof, and the tissues poke out through the chimney

    11. A simple, modern farmhouse storage ottoman, so you can solve your "where do I put my feet?" and "where do I put my 49 couch-blankets?" problems at the same time.

    12. An iron etagere bookcase with a unique triangular shelf that's perfect for showcasing vinyl, stacking up books, or having your cat claim as their new bed.

    13. A faux-weathered modern farmhouse end table with a drawer, cabinet space, and built-in USB ports and outlets, so you don't have to ruin your living room vibe with a bunch of very un-aesthetic cords.

    14. A circular floating shelving unit with three asymmetrical wooden shelves, for Scandinavian design aficionados, or anyone who's just kind of over more typical floating shelves.

    The shelf, which has a frame made of two circular metal tubes, with three wooden shelves staggered within the circle

    15. A rustic, three-level Z-frame shoe rack that can hold at least nine pairs of shoes, because it's much more stylish than your current option, "putting all your shoes in a big pile in the closet and then lying to yourself about how you'll organize them later."

    the 3-tier rustic rack with a pillow on the top rack, a pair of shoes in the middle, and nothing on the bottom

    16. A two-drawer wooden nightstand with midcentury styling and splayed legs, so you'll have someplace incredibly chic to store your retainer.

    The nightstand, which has two drawers with small knob pulls and four splayed legs

    17. A set of three dangling, geometric mirrors that can be hung together or apart, to help brighten up your room, make it look larger, or just help you check for poppy seeds in your teeth (all worthy undertakings).

    The three mirrors, each of which are diamond-shaped and hang from a long chain

    18. A Kelly Clarkson Home velvet wingback swivel chair with wheels, so you can combine "beautiful design" with "actually being able to move around your home office."

    19. A slim, faux-distressed console table that looks French country-stylish and also has four working drawers, so you can stow away all the very important things in your life that are neither French nor stylish (looking at you, leash and doggy doo bags).

    20. A two-piece set of ombre Le Creuset salt-and-pepper grinders, because they're basically pieces of art that ALSO season your food. Our ancient ancestors called that "witchcraft," but I call it "value."

    The two grinders, which have traditional grinder shapes

    21. A three-piece vanity set with a dresser, stool, and mirror, so you can actually enjoy getting ready in the morning, instead of hunching over the sink and accidentally knocking your eyebrow pencil down the drain.

    The vanity, which has two pull-out drawers and a round mirror on top, in white

    22. A simple wood and steel console table that gives you space to display items without taking up a lot of room.

    The table, which has a thin rectangular wooden top, and a narrow black metal frame

    23. A dramatically arched floor lamp with adjustable height and a foot switch, so you can turn even the dankest, darkest rooms of your home into beautifully lit lil' sanctuaries.

    The lamp, which has a round base, a long, thin body that arcs high in the air, and a round drum shade

    24. A Novogratz industrial-chic tiered plant stand that can be mounted on the wall or sit on the floor—wherever your green bbs will thrive the most.

    25. A velvet scalloped chair so you can always feel retro-glamorous, even if you are just sitting in it to fold some laundry.

    26. A set of three two-tone woven seagrass baskets that bring a coastal, beachy vibe to any space. Use them as decor accents, to hold potted plants, to store all those dog toys that you keep stepping on. The possibilities are endless!

    The baskets, which have a white woven bottom and a light brown woven top, are round, and have two round handles for carrying extending from the top edge of the basket

    27. A column lamp with three levels of open storage, so you can totally transform any dark, cluttered corners of your house.

    The lamp, which is tall, with three open storage shelves set between four long, rectangular poles, in white

    28. A minimalist Novogratz writing desk with deep open storage cubbies for all of your stuff, because you deserve to feel sleek and stylish, even if you can't KonMari to save your life.

    The desk, which has a white marble print and gold hairpin legs, and two open cubbies under the main desktop surface

    29. A French country-esque pedestal table that will give your room a pop of color and a place to put your coffee. Win-win!

    The table, which has a round base and surface, and a spindle column

    30. A sleek counter dining set with two stools and a pub table with three built-in shelves, so even the smallest studio apartment-dwellers can still have an elegant dinner spot.

    The dining set, which includes two square-cushioned stools and a rectangular table on high legs

    31. A TV stand that combines midcentury design, contemporary wood finishes, and practical details like two closed cubbies and a hidden cable management area. It's the best of both worlds, as Hannah Montana used to say (yes, she was singing about a TV stand).

    The TV stand, which has an open storage area in the center with two shelves, and a closed cubby at either end
