We hope you love our recommendations! Some may have been sent as samples, but all were independently selected by our editors. Just FYI, BuzzFeed and its publishing partners may collect a share of sales and/or other compensation from the links on this page.
1. A string of fairy lights, because there's just something magical about what these do to a room at night. It'll give your room the coziest ambience while you curl up to read or watch a movie, and make it feel a bit like Christmas year-round.
2. And some ivy garland you can string up as a backdrop for your bed or computer setup or drape along a bookshelf, bed frame, floor-length mirror, the ceiling... the options are endless! They add such a cool natural vibe to the space and really help bring it all to life.
3. Prismatic window film to add a little more privacy while letting the sun cast gorgeous rainbows across the room during the day. It gives the coziest stained glass effect at night, and knowing no nosy passerby can peek inside your windows only makes it feel more like a sanctuary.
Promising review: "I live in an apartment community and I wanted to find a solution to cover up my windows without using my blinds/curtains. Let me just say...wow! This beyond exceeded my expectations. Not only does it give me the privacy I need, but the way the lights reflect in the daytime AND nighttime is just breathtaking! In the morning when the sun shines through, tiny little rainbows get casted all over the bedroom! At night it looks so cozy, warm, and has a beautiful, realistic stained glass look to it." —Katie Coyle
Get a 17.5"x78.7" roll from Amazon for $9.98 (available in 11 sizes).
4. Or a gorgeous pair of rainbow prism suncatchers for dangling by your window so you can watch rainbows dance around your room when the sun hits them just right.
5. A memory foam mattress topper if your current mattress is, honestly, uncomfortable as heck and it's affecting your sleep. Instead of shelling out for a new mattress, you can instantly upgrade your sleep situation with a topper, which conforms to your curves like the softest cloud, relieves pressure points, and helps temperature-regulate thanks to cooling gel beads that distribute heat.
6. A velvety soft microfiber duvet insert made for snuggle season, because piling blankets and quilts on your bed just isn't cutting it! It'll made your bed look extra cozy, and once you curl up underneath this pillowy comforter, it'll be hard to go back to any other type of bedding.
7. And to go on top of it, a shaggy faux-fur duvet cover lined with soft velvet on the underside. With bedding this luxurious, who could blame you for wanting to hibernate...the whole year.
8. Plus a set of ultra-soft corduroy pillow covers to cozy up your bed even more. They'll accent your color scheme or other decorative pillows *and* give you an excuse to take way more midday naps.
Jenae: I own these in the orange shade and can vouch that they're *so* soft and not just for looks (but they look cute too!). I was so tired of getting decorative throw pillow covers that were cute but scratchy and not at all pleasant to lay your head on, and these fit the bill perfectly. They're a permanent fixture on my couch now and I've taken many a nap on them, and they'd be great on a bed too.
Promising review: "I bought the orange rectangular ones to go with some fall printed pillow covers. They were really just for decoration, but they are super soft and cozy! They fit very snug on the pillows I had. I really like them; in fact, I bought a square set in green to go with my Christmas decor! Would definitely recommend." —gb
Get a set of two 18x18 covers from Amazon for $14.99 (available in 24 colors and nine sizes).
If you're looking for affordable pillow inserts to match the covers, you can buy a set of two hypoallergenic pillow inserts on Amazon for $9.99+. For the fluffiest pillow, opt for an insert that's 2 inches bigger than your cover (so if you get an 18x18-inch cover, you'll want a 20x20-inch insert for optimal fluffiness).
9. A set of two cooling pillows if sleeping on the "cool side" is something you like to do. No more flipping your pillow over constantly — reviewers say these keep you cool all night long, and they're filled with a plush gel fiber that provides just the right amount of support. If you've ever wish you could bring those fancy hotel pillows home with you...now you can.
10. And speaking of hotels: A set of breathable, cooling bed sheets so you can make your bed feel as luxurious as the one you slept in on vacation. Silky soft, breathable, and cooling, these popular sheets feel ~expensive~ but aren't, with over 150,000 (!) 5-star ratings backing up their incredible value.
11. A comfy 5.5-foot beanbag floor pillow if you've ever stared at a cat curled up on a pillow and thought, "I wish I could do that." It'll act as extra seating for your bedroom, and for those days when you just want to lay on the floor and watch TV.
12. A headboard with built-in storage — you can eliminate the need for nightstands once you have this to place your phone, books, lamps, and other nighttime essentials on. It takes up very little space in your bedroom, ties your whole bed ~aesthetic~ together, and everything you need for your evening wind-down routine will be in arm's reach.
Promising reviews: "My fiance and I put it together in about an hour. It's solid and plenty of space for books and whatnot, both in the shelves and on top. It definitely saved us some serious space in our tiny bedroom. This headboard was a gamble because we didn't know how high or low the shelves stacked up against the bed on a platform (no boxspring), but it seems to do just fine. I'd think even a regular thickness mattress would do just fine as well, as the piece below the shelving is a solid wall (no holes for pillows to fall through) until about 8 inches off the ground. Hope that helps someone who's in the same position out there that we were in, not knowing. Overall, it's a solid piece and definitely worth the money for saving space." —Liz S.
Get it from Amazon for $138.99+ (available in full/queen and king sizes and four colors).
13. A velour reading pillow that'll make your bed truly the most comfortable spot for curling up with a good book because (unlike your propped up pillows) it provides full support for your neck, back, and arms. It's filled with shredded memory foam that molds to your shape for soft, yet ~supportive~ comfort.
It has an accessible foam insert that lets you pull out stuffing if the pillow is too firm for comfort (or add more if needed). The velour cover can be easily unzipped and tossed into a washing machine for cleaning, while the handle at the top makes it easy to carry from one spot to another.
Promising review: "I love reading in bed, but even four pillows at my back didn't really help support me, as they would slide and slump. This pillow is perfect — very comfortable and not too heavy, which is important, as I take it on and off my bed daily. I am short, so other pillows with a neck support feature were out for me, as those are usually too high (like car seat neck rests.) This is also less expensive than some others, and after a month of use, I have no complaints at all. Very nice!" —Anita Lawson
Get it from Amazon for $25.49+ (available in two colors).
14. A soothing hot water bottle you can bring to bed on those cold nights where you feel chilled to the core — it'll keep you toasty warm while relaxing in bed, and reviewer say it's really soothing for cramps and back pain, too. It comes with an adorable knit cozy to keep it from burning your skin.
15. A bed canopy to make your bedroom feel like even more of cozy hideaway, and it adds a lil' extra privacy too.
Hang some vines and/or fairy lights to really add to that fairytale vibe! It can also help serve as a room divider.
Promising review: "LOVE LOVE LOVE. Was looking for an easy way to update my bedroom and make it feel more cozy without having to do a whole DIY/Pinterest-y project and damage my walls. Instead of using the hooks they provided, I just used clear thumbtacks to hang it. It is very lightweight and changes your room's vibe instantaneously. It was easy to install and was exactly what I expected. I love it and recommend it!" —Christian Sorrentino
Get it from Amazon for $17.09+ (available in four colors).
16. A floral tapestry with soft colors and an eye-catching pattern — drape it behind your bed for the coziest backdrop (and an easier, cheaper alternative to hanging art).
Some people like to pair this with a canopy and/or fairy lights to really tie the look together!
Promising review: "Love this mandala tapestry! I have hung it up in my living room and it fits right into my cozy and boho vibe!" —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $14.99+ (available in three colors and two sizes).
17. A trio of floating shelves for a space-efficient way to display all your prized collectibles, plants, books, photos, vinyl records, and other small decor, giving your room that cozy, personalized touch.
18. A TikTok-famous sunset lamp that'll drench the room in rosy warm light, basically making it look like golden hour 24/7.
The distance determines how wide and intense the light is — position it farther away for a softer diffused light, or closer up to focus the colorful beam on a specific spot.
Promising review: "Immediately, out of the box, it makes any room more aesthetically pleasing. It's such a simple but beautiful light to make your room feel cozy. The warm color also adds calm and serenity to your space. I am so satisfied with it, I will be buying another. My space has weird geometric angles and this light makes them feel even cooler." —-jordan_
Get it from Amazon for $17.99+ (available in two styles).
19. Or a dreamy galaxy projector so you can stargaze from the comfort of your bed as you drift off to sleep. The blue and purple hues have a relaxing effect that's even helped some reviewers calm down at night.
This also adds a cool vibe if you're watching a movie or gaming, giving you some light without distracting from what's on the screen.
Promising review: "Holy moly!!! MAGNIFICENT!!! I have been so happy about a purchase in longer than I can recall. I LOVE ambiance and when I partner this cosmic projector (which is what I think it should be called!), with my sound machine that plays crickets, it takes me to another place of altered consciousness. In this chaotic, increasingly violent world I find it very important to recall the beauty and wonder in the world, and, as cheesy as this may sound, this little machine reminds me of that. Thank you so much for this magical machine!" —DiscernedCitizen
Get it from Amazon for $39.99.
20. An artificial eucalyptus wall hanging for a minimalistic, natural-looking piece of decor that simply exudes tranquility and peaceful vibes.
21. A wooden wick aromatherapy candle that'll set the mood for your relaxing evening of self-care — and it doesn't get more classic than this soothing blend of lavender and sage.
22. A foldable desk tray if you watch shows and movies on your laptop in bed and are tired of your legs feeling scorched from the heat. This'll prop your computer up so it's closer to eye level for comfort, *and* the cushions underneath relieve some of the pressure on your legs.
23. A huggable Pusheen plushie that'll keep you company during those late night snack-and-Netflix sessions — and never talk over important scenes. It's the perfect size for hugging (sometimes you just want something between your arms!) and will look positively adorable on your bed. We don't care how old you are!
24. A weighted blanket if anxiety, restless leg syndrome, or general anxiety keep you up at night — it applies just the right amount of pressure to be comforting without feeling suffocating. *And* with this particular blanket, you'll get two covers: one for cold seasons (or just generally cold sleepers) that keeps you toasty warm, and one for hot weather designed to keep you from overheating.
25. A silk eye mask to completely block out light so you can get uninterrupted beauty rest, even when your roommate keeps their reading lamp on until 2 a.m. or sunlight starts creeping through your window well before your alarm is set to go off.
26. And a set of blackout curtains that'll help address that second problem, blocking between 85% to 99% of light so your room feels like the coziest cave when you want to hide away from the world (and, you know, sleep in for once). They can also help insulate the room against winter chill and summer heat.
27. A pack of light-dimming stickers you can peel and stick to dim any annoying LED lights that have been bugging you at night, whether it's your alarm clock, a smart device, white noise machine, router, or TV. One sticker will dim the light by about 50%, and you can use an additional sticker to completely cover the light!
28. A set of bed bands so you can cinch those bed corners tight and keep your sheets and mattress pad from sliding right off the bed, especially if you (or your bedmate) tend to toss and turn at night.
29. A dual-zone comforter because in most bed-sharing situations, there's someone who likes to sleep warm and someone who's sweating profusely because they prefer sleeping cold (and you know which one you are). This cleverly designed comforter has two separate zones that'll meet each person's needs — and possibly put an end to the eternal fight over covers.
30. A lavender-scented linen and pillow mist you can spritz on your pillows and comforter for a clean, fresh smell that'll make you instantly feel relaxed (and maybe even sleep better).
31. A memory foam orthopedic knee pillow if you're constantly putting a pillow between your legs to try to get comfortable in bed — it's ergonomically designed for comfortable support that'll help reduce strain on your back, align your spine, and improve circulation.
32. A plush shag rug because there's something decidedly un-cozy about your feet meeting a cold, hard floor when you're sliding out of bed. Not only will it bring a stylish flair, but it'll also make the whole room feel cozy and welcoming — like someplace you'd actually wanna spend time in when you're not asleep.
33. Or a small faux sheepskin rug to lay on the floor beside your bed, in front of your floor-length mirror, or across your reading chair to inject some serious "hygge" (a Danish word referring to a mood of coziness and contentment).
Heads up that if you have any pets, wherever you place this will *probably* become their new favorite nap spot.
Promising review: "Hygge! Need I say more? I purchased it to go on top of my ottoman just to add a bit of cozy to the living room. It transformed the room. It’s soft and pretty but mostly it just gives the room a comfy boho meets modern meets scandi in winter look. Yep, it’s a keeper." —Happy
Get a 2x3 rug from Amazon for $20.99 (available in 12 sizes and 22 colors).
34. Scented drawer liners with elegant floral designs to line your dresser drawers with. They'll make you smile every time you catch a glimpse of them underneath your clothes, and reviewers say they have the loveliest smell too.
Promising reviews: "I am very pleased with these scented drawer liners! They are perfect for my bedroom chest of drawers. The paper is heavy and the scent is wonderful. I love it! I may buy them as gifts." —Jennifer
"This is a traditional scented drawer liner paper — the kind people used for decades before modern adhesive (plastic) papers — and it's beautiful. I purchased the royal bloom scent and it smells like fresh pears. The paper comes in a tight roll and I suggest reverse rolling or laying it flat and weighing it down for a night before installing it. I very much prefer non-adhesive paper like this because it is easy to install and replace, but also because it is old-school elegance." —Trillium
Get it from Amazon for $17.99 (available in three patterns).
35. A giant hoodie blanket that combines all the snuggly warmth of your favorite blanket with the wearable design of a hoodie — now you don't have to shiver every time you leave your warm cocoon in bed to go grab a glass of water.
36. A three-layer door stopper you can install (and by "install" we mean peel and stick!) underneath your door if there's a pesky gap letting in cold drafts (or those creepy crawlies that seem to emerge in the fall — ugh).
37. A panel of books that'll make your bedroom feel a little more like a cozy library while hiding any eyesores (like a router, outlet, or power strip with lots of cables). Made from reclaimed books and sustainable wood, this literary display has a hollow interior so you can set it up in front of anything you'd rather conceal. Shh, no one needs to know you've haven't finished a book in six months.
38. And floating bookshelves for your *real* books, making them work double-time as wall decor (while freeing up precious bookshelf space). You could even position them next to your bed so your current read is just an arm's length away. If you take video calls in your bedroom, this would make the coolest backdrop, too.
These give your books a cool floating look because the actual shelf gets nestled between the top cover/pages and the bottom cover of the book, with any other books just stacked on top of that. If you have an oddly shaped room, you can find some stylish solace in these rather than a standing bookshelf that'll hog precious floor space.
Promising review: "These are so much fun! We ordered the small size, which fits standard hardback books (approximately five to seven hardbacks in my experience). They're a great way to add some extra storage to our very small home, and we've placed them in our hallway so people ask us about them all the time. I'd highly recommend!" —LaBuenaVidaMere
Get them from Amazon for $14+ (available individually or in a set of three, and two sizes).
39. A cool mist humidifier if dry skin, congested sinuses, and a scratchy throat are the bane of your existence, especially when indoor humidity levels start to drop during cooler weather. This quietly effective humidifier will moisten the air to keep it feeling comfortable during the day *and* at night while you sleep.
If you have plants, they'll love the extra humidity too!
BTW, I highly recommend picking up an indoor humidity gauge that'll let you know your current humidity level and whether it's dropped below comfortable levels — it also tells you the temperature and can stick right on your fridge magnetically. It lets me know every year when I need to break out the humidifier and start running it at night.
Promising review: "So for the last several weeks, I have been experiencing the negative effects of dry air in my home, particularly in my bedroom. My nose has been dry and sore with inflamed nasal passages along with my nose running 'like a sugar tree.' Sleeping with a fan as I have done for the past 15+ years became impossible. I don't know about you, but that combination makes for a miserable sleep. Anywho, I had never needed or used a humidifier until this purchase. Let's just say that my dreams have returned and I'm waking up to a nice mist rather than a pillow of Kleenex and a sore nose. Life is good." —Tracy Johnson
Get it from Amazon for $29.98+ (available in three sizes).
40. A hanging bed caddy for storing all your lounging essentials while also keeping them an arm's length away. You won't be cluttering up your bedside table, freeing up space for other things, *and* you won't have to get out of bed because you left the remote on the dresser.
41. Or a super-slim storage cart you can sneak into that lil' space between your bed and nightstand because any space is potential storage space, gosh darn it! You'll be able to roll it right out when you need access to things, then push it back into the space to move it out of sight.
Promising review: "Fit perfectly between the bed and the wall in my small bedroom. I thought the entire thing was metal — that’s my misunderstanding. The trays are plastic. I still love it. Easily top heavy though. You must put a heavier item in the bottom if you plan to roll it around. Otherwise it’s great for the $ and perfect for what I needed." —Danielle Oed
Get it from Amazon for $21.99 (available in three colors).
42. A pet-safe red prayer plant, which has a curious behavior of folding up its leaves at night — almost as if it were praying to the moon. That means when you're up late at night, you'll be able to watch this tranquil plant in action and appreciate its peaceful vibe. Direct light will burn its pretty red-veined leaves, so it'll do well in rooms that don't get any harsh sun!
Sun: Low to bright indirect light
Water: Once a week (mist daily)
Jenae: I've bought this exact plant from this Amazon seller and can confirm it arrived in great shape! Watching it lift up its leaves at night is always super cool — just be sure to spritz it with water once a day, as it likes to stay moist. Oh, and it's non-toxic to cats and dogs! (Psst — check out more pet-safe plants you can order online!)
Promising review: "It gets more beautiful every week. So far so good 👍 I have decided to add plants around my house. Many of my plants were labeled 'hardy, hard to kill, great for beginners' — that's why I picked them. I have killed three plants so far!!! I'm lucky my prayer plant is holding steady and for now likes its spot. Update: Could not be happier with my prayer plant. Its been five months. It opens through the night and rolls up during the day. Wish it would be full all around, but it's happy and healthy, so I just let it be since I get such joy from it." —Charlotte
Get it from Amazon for $19.99.
43. A handy hanger that attaches to your door for hanging all those beautiful, heavy-duty quilts you've collected — it's a lovely, space-efficient way of displaying them (cozy vibes!!) while getting them off your bed when they're not being used.
Things Made Easy Store is a small Etsy shop, and right now the Quilt Keeper is their sole product.
Promising review: "Perfect! I have now bought four of them because everyone who sees it wants it. Perfect for hanging a quilt, throw, bedspread, etc. when it’s not needed. Well made, well shipped, arrived quickly with no issues whatsoever. I am very happy with this purchase." —Sandy
Get it from Things Made Easy Store on Etsy for $39.
