    26 Random Things Under $30 That Have No Business Being So Pretty

    They may be pretty, but won't cost you a pretty penny.

    1. A little ceramic dish you can keep your most-worn jewelry, keys, and other trinkets in. It has a beautiful glossy finish and the charming winking eyes in the middle will add some cheekiness to your vanity.

    2. Some patterned towels that’ll give your bathroom a little upgrade. These are made in Portugal and inspired by traditional designs seen on the streets of Seville and Cordoba. Plus, the premium-looking fringed border makes them look quite expensive (no one needs to know how much they really cost you).

    3. A couple of ingeniously designed glass globes that'll water your plants on their own when your plant needs it. They're made of blown glass and have cork caps, so they're environment friendly, too. Just place them top down in your planters and let them do their thing.

    4. A tablecloth printed with colourful spring birds hopping and bopping about. The cloth is coated with a hydrophobic substance that causes liquids to bead up instead of absorb, meaning no stains or soggy spots. So not only will it bring cheer to your space, but it’ll also make post-mealtime cleanup easier.

    5. A printed shower curtain that'll make you feel like you're soaking in the rain on a tropical island. It comes with reinforced grommets, so installation will be a breeze and it won't come falling off with a little pull and tug.

    6. A cheeseboard that's been handcrafted using upcycled chopsticks, making it any eco-conscious person's dream cheeseboard. The chopsticks also give it a gorgeous natural design — the sides look like miniature log cabin walls!

    7. A floral cami and shorts set that's so darn cute, you'll want to post sleepy selfies in it. The spaghetti straps on the cami are adjustable, and the ruffle trim at the bottom of the shorts adds to the floral theme. Plus, it's all petal plush! 🌸

    8. A pair of thick square hoops that are just dripping with '90s attitude. They have a hammered metal finish and will quickly become your new go-to accessory. Trust me, they'll look great with pretty much everything in your closet.

    9. A heart-shaped enamel pin that keeps things pink and sweet, yet radical and sassy. You can pin it on your favourite denim jacket, your daily-use backpack, or the pocket on your jeans. Flaunt it any way you like.

    10. A set of semi-matte porcelain pourers for your oil, vinegar, or soy sauce, so you can ditch the plastic squeeze bottles you're currently using. These have acacia wood caps that have sealing silicone discs attached to keep liquids fresh. You can set them next to the stove for your cooking needs and show them off at the table when you're hosting a dinner party.

    11. Some spiral hair ties that'll keep your locks securely in place, whether you're in a meeting or jumping and bouncing during a cardio session. Since they don't have any metal or plastic aglets and aren't made of high-friction fabric, they won't damage and stretch out your hair, causing breakage.

    12. A hanging glass terrarium that'll bring a touch of nature to your space, without the stress and commitment of real plant parenthood. It comes with gravel and three artificial succulents, so there's next to no maintenance required. Just wipe the exterior to make it shine every now and then.

    13. A silicone spatula that'll look like a piece of art in your kitchen. It has a curved edge on one side and is sharply angled on the other, so you can empty bowls and pans of all shapes in the cleanest way.

    14. Some hand-drawn girl power stickers that'll jazz up your laptop, phone, water bottle, or bike. They're waterproof and have a vinyl finish, so they'll probably last you years, too.

    15. A chic device holder that's made of willow wood and will prop your phone or tablet up when you're click-clacking in your office or following a recipe video in the kitchen. It has a slot at the bottom to allow your device to charge simultaneously, too.

    16. A refreshing watermelon lip balm that'll quench your pout and keep it feeling pillowy soft all day long. EOS lip balms provide deep hydration, smell good enough to eat, and look like adorable lil' eggs (which is the main reason I have eight of them).

    17. A geo-mosaic bathmat that's so modern, it'll make you want to throw your plain, towel-y one out. It's made of memory foam, so you'll feel like you've stepped on a cloud when you get out of the shower. Plus, it's super absorbent and has a non-slip sole, too.

    18. Some protective cooking gear that'll keep your clothes free of stains and your fingers free of burns. It's covered in a gorgeous, rustic fig print that may make you feel cute and motivated enough to want to cook at home every day.

    19. A little octopus-shaped scrub stick specially designed to be applied to and around the nose. It has charcoal, dead sea salt, and black mud to suck away all the excess oil and gunk from your pores, without making a mess.

    20. An aqua blue ice cube tray that gives you perfectly spherical ice. It's made of silicone, so you won't have to worry about it cracking in your freezer. And because the silicone is flexible, the ice pops right out, without you bending and banging the tray on your counter.

    21. A cute doormat with three sassy llamas who will greet all your visitors. The mat is made of coconut fibres and has a non-slip bottom, so you won't have to be too careful wiping your soles.

    22. A jar of flower essence tea specially created to make bath time feel more deluxe. The blend of solar-dried sea salt and flowers will leave you feeling de-stressed, and look like something royal on your bathroom shelf, too.

These come with eight settings you can control with your phone, so depending on your mood, you can switch things up easily.

    25. A wire metal basket you can use as both storage and decor. The grid pattern in conjunction with the dark solid wood base keeps things minimalistic, yet pretty, without entering "basic" territory.

    26. And lastly, a rubberized MacBook cover that'll protect your laptop from bumps, drops, and scratches, and look like a dream doing so. It comes with a matching gradient keyboard guard, too, so you can avoid those big water damage bills.
