1. A trio of ceramic vases in powder blue, pink, and periwinkle, perfect for displaying dried botanicals or a fresh bouquet. You can arrange them together or place separately throughout your home to liven up a plain area.
Promising review: "These are amazing!! Make sure to look at the specs because they’re smaller than I anticipated, but they’re super-high quality and adorable. I’d buy these 8 million times over." —Christina Loeffler
Get the set of three from Amazon for $21.90.
2. A pair of orange lamps to add just a dash of color without being too overwhelming. The funky circular shape of these also helps balance out all those sharp corners.
Promising review: "I. Love. These. Lamps!! I bought the orange set because I wanted to add some color to my living room. These are tall and gorgeous. Stunning! Obsessed! I would buy them in every color if I could." —Dan Neuville
Get a set of two from Amazon for $145.99 (available in 10 colors).
3. A small eye rug sure to draw ~eyes~ in any room you place it with its bold yellow, blue, and pink designs. It's perfect on its own (can be used as a bath mat) or layered on top of another rug for ~flair~.
4. Or a fuchsia area rug to take your love of purple to new heights. It's one of the easiest ways to brighten up a room with plain walls and furniture and helps draw the whole space together — you could even use it as the starting point for your new color scheme.
Promising review: "This rug makes a huge statement in any room! I got it for my bathroom and it completely transformed the space. I got the 8 x 8-foot one and it is huge. The colors are the same as in the pictures, and the rug feels high quality. It’s heavy and seems well made. It’s a great price as well. I looked at Rugs USA and Wayfair and I couldn’t find anything I liked as well as this rug and not for the same price." —MH
Get it from Amazon for $37.32+ (available in 16 sizes, three shapes, and six colors).
5. A pretty metal end table with a tray-like top that protects items from sliding off — and it's removable, so you can use it as an actual tray too! With its anti-rust, waterproof construction, it would make a great patio table and add some gorgeous color to the space.
Promising review: "I bought this in the dark green shade and it is a lovely little side table that adds a pop of color to the living room! Assembling the table took less than 10 minutes, and the tray is not too small but large enough to fit a lamp, a mug, and a couple of other things. The height is also just right as a side table to a sofa." —Lily
Get it from Amazon for $34.99+ (available in eight colors).
6. A knitted, textured throw blanket because one can never have too many blankets, and this one just happens to have over 22,000 5-star reviews. You *might* just be tempted to pick one up for each season — a green one for spring, perhaps; the red for the holidays... either way, it'll look stunning draped across a bed, chair, or couch.
Promising review: "If you're looking for a nice pop of color in a neutral room — this is it! I inspected the throw carefully and found no issues. No holes or messed up fringe. Aside from the color, I absolutely love the pattern which adds a simple but noticeable texture over clean white sheets. The throw is lightweight enough that I can see myself using it over the summer but warm enough to keep me cozy in between seasons." —Rosalyn
Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in 25 colors and three sizes).
7. A comfy chair and ottoman with a retro patchwork design that also works beautifully with modern decor, adding a home-y, vintage feel with pops of red, yellow, and blue. It's sure to become the centerpiece of any room it's in — not to mention a comfortable place to relax after a long day.
Promising review: "Beautiful chairs!! All I have been getting are compliments on these chairs. Love the colors. Not too flashy, just perfect. I bought these chairs for our family room with a black couch to bring some color in the room and they look wonderful. Very comfy and sturdy. We had issues where the chairs were delayed but Amazon and seller were both very helpful! Very happy with this purchase. They were worth the wait." —MS
Get it from Amazon for $265.
8. Or if you love that style but need something smaller, a patchwork desk chair to give you both a comfortable and stylish place to sit while you WFH.
Promising review: "With 10/10 stars I would recommend! I love this chair! ❤️ I purchased it to go with my new desk in my back sunroom that I converted into a home office. It’s perfect! I’m at my desk most of the day and the chair is very comfortable. Sturdy, well-made, and easy to assemble." —Tiffany L.
Get it from Amazon for $104 (available in three other styles and in two-packs).
9. A plush flower-shaped vanity stool in a beautiful green shade so you have a comfy place to sit while getting all dolled up — and when you're not using it, it makes for a stunning piece of bedroom decor.
Promising review: "Came assembled and is WORTH the price. Great quality and quite cushy. Spruces up a room! <3" —swonderful
Get it from Urban Outfitters for $129 (available in five colors).
10. A pack of corduroy throw pillow covers if your couch or bed is *desperate* in need of some color — these come in a range of vibrant shades and instantly cozy up a space.
Remember these are covers, so if you don't already have inserts, you can pick up a pair for $11.99+. If you want really fluffy pillows, opt for an insert that's 2 inches bigger than your cover.
Promising review: "The brilliant sunflower yellow provided the exact pop of color I wanted for a new-to-me couch and I ordered them mostly for the color — and (I thought) reasonable price. An added bonus is the luxurious softness on the plush fabric. This was a great purchase for me, however, I must confess, I misread the description and didn’t realize until the covers arrived I had only ordered covers and needed to supply the pillow forms. Not a big deal at all, as I truly did like the covers. I’ve ordered the forms and am still pleased with my purchase." —Texas Grandma
Get them from Amazon for $12.99+ (available in 29 colors and seven sizes).
11. Prismatic window film to cover any windows and let the sun cast gorgeous rainbows across the room. It adds a 'lil extra privacy as well, if you'd rather not have any nosy neighbors looking in.
Promising review: "I can't tell you how surprised and delighted we were at the rainbow effect this film has. I bought it to make a window overlooking the street more private, and I thought I would appreciate seeing the rainbow colors on the window itself. But then when the light was shining on it at the right angle, it cast these beautiful rainbow colors on the wall. So I bought a second roll to put on one of our master bedroom windows that overlooks our neighbor's patio so I don't have to draw the curtains. In the morning now, the light comes in at just the right angle to pass through the rainbow prism and cast beautiful rainbow colors on the wall. And the bed. And the cat." —J.B.
Get it from Amazon for $10.98+ (available in 11 sizes).
Check out our Rabbitgoo window film review for more on why it's worth buying!
12. Or if you'd rather not cover an entire window, a gorgeous little Magic Castle suncatcher that's more than just a shiny sticker — when the sun hits it just right, you'll get to enjoy gorgeous prisms of color all across the room.
Promising reviews: "Honestly, I underestimated this beauty! At first I thought it'll just be a regular shiny sticker, but the texture, shine, and sun casting on this sticker is beyond expectation. I love it!" —Janae
Get it from Wish Upon Magic on Etsy for $11.99.
Wish Upon Magic is a California-based Etsy shop established in 2017 that specializes in Disney decor, with a portion of sales proceeds from every purchase going to the Make-A-Wish Foundation.
13. A flower dish brush perfect for your spring dish cleaning, leaf-ing your plates and bowls sparkling clean. And when it's not in use, it adds a gorgeous pop of color to your kitchen sink area.
Promising review: "These colorful whimsical dish brushes are both adorable and useful. The flower side is actually used as a soft brush to rinse plates with. Under the flower is a rigid plastic scraper that’s useful on food that has stuck on plates or pans. The actual bristle brush is useful on pots, pans and other uses you may need it for around the house. There are also a few 'off label' uses for the vase-brush holder. By holding it by the narrow neck, it can be used to scrape plates by using it in a circular motion on the dirty dinner plates. It also can be used for a window scraper in the car to scrape frost, by holding it again by the neck and scraping again, in a circular motion. It’s great! I bought several for friends and family." —Nadine Brown Silver
Get it from Amazon for $13.99+ (available in three styles).
14. An investment-worthy KitchenAid stand mixer boasting 4.9 out of 5 stars and nearly 70,000 reviews — it's one of the best kitchen splurges, in my humble opinion, especially if you bake on the regular. But beyond its use as a kitchen tool, it's beloved for its gorgeous range of colors — this is one kitchen appliance worthy of staying out on the counter so you can look at it daily.
The 10-speed mixer comes with a flat beater, a coated dough hook, a six-wire whip, a bowl and bowl lid, and a pouring shield. The 5-quart stainless-steel bowl can mix dough for nine dozen cookies or four loaves of bread in a single batch!
I have this particular mixer in the Ice color and honestly can't imagine living without it now — it takes all the manual effort out of whisking ingredients and saves you a bit of time as you can work on other things while it's blending. It stays out on my counter full time because I love how the pop of blue looks against my white backsplash. If you've been on the fence about getting a KitchenAid, let this be the final nudge you needed to pull the trigger.
Promising reviews: "After burning out my old mixer, I needed something that could keep up with my baking efforts. This is the one. I also love the soft blue for a pop of color in my kitchen. It's beautiful." —Anonymous
Get it from Wayfair for $399.99 (available in 13 colors) or from Amazon for $399 (available in 10 colors).
15. A colorful set of metal barstools because you might as well have fun with your seating too. These industrial-style stools are stackable, hold up to 300 pounds, and have nonscuffing rubber feet, making them as functional as they are vibrant.
Promising review: "These chairs have tied my dream kitchen together. It is so hard to find anything in orange and when I saw these my heart almost burst and my husband ordered them immediately for me. I am a bartender by trade and I have sat on some barstools, let me tell you, the rubber feet make these stools actually comfortable! They are bright, beautiful, sturdy, and the perfect height! The color is true to the online pictures! One of my favorite purchases to date!" —Heatherbrook Young
Get them from Amazon for $99.99+ (available in sets of one, two, or four, and in 12 colors).
16. A wireless keyboard and mouse set to brighten up an otherwise drab desk area so you can type away in style. These fun peripherals are bound to make you just a *little* happier every time you sit down to work.
The set includes a wireless keyboard and mouse with a USB receiver for a 2.4GHz connection. Pick up some AA batteries — both will need them!
Promising review: "Absolutely amazing keyboard. Colors are eye-catching and make a drab office pop with color! I am currently the envy of the office. Ladies in the other departments are waiting on their own to come in now after seeing mine. Easy plug/play. It travels between home and office with me. Love the keys on this as well. Sleep mode seems to pop on kinda quick, but it's nothing bad. Just push a button or click the mouse and it's on again. I have had mine for about a month now and will not be going back to any other style!" —Nikki Bell
Get it from Amazon for $39.99 (available in 12 styles).
17. Colorful dot placemats handcrafted in Italy and made of semi-flexible resin. They're sure to give your dining table a whimsical, one-of-a-kind aesthetic.

18. Handmade "mug rugs" that give your drinks a plush and *unbelievably* cute place to rest without scratching your furniture. Has there ever been a cuter coaster?? I think not!
Promising review: "I purchased a few coasters for a friend and it turned out to be the perfect gift. I absolutely love the design (esp. the egg) and it is so beautifully made. Tempted to get some for myself! I will likely be purchasing more for future presents." —Jessica Chun
Get it from Embroidery with Aycan on Etsy for $12.99 (available in a variety of patterns).
Embroidery with Aycan is a woman-owned small business based in Istanbul, Turkey. They make coasters, pillows, and cute handmade decor.
19. An enviable Le Creuset salt mill (and matching pepper mill) in the color of your choice so you can match your current kitchen ~aesthetic~.
Promising review: "We use this with sea salt and it works like a gem. Also looks really good paired with the red pepper mill. Note that these are tall mills. I like them on the table to accompany dinner but when cooking, I prefer the smaller ones. It's a matter of preference, though. This salt mill works perfectly." —Melanie N.
Get them from Amazon: salt mill and pepper mill for $43.95+ each (available in up to 15 colors).
20. A set of flower trivet mats that can double as wall decor or decorative table settings when you're not using them to protect your surfaces from hot pans. They come in a bunch of different colors, so you could mix-and-match or settle with one color scheme!
Promising review: "Perfect pop of color 👌. These are so cute. They are larger than a saucer but smaller than a dinner plate. The perfect shade of bright summer yellow. I am so happy. I actually bought them to be a part of the place settings on my breakfast table." —Happy Camper
Get a set of three from Amazon for $12.99 (available in 10 colors).
21. A pair of natural agate bookends to add a little extra beauty to your bookshelf.
Promising review: "The ones I got are nearly perfectly matched and have beautiful markings. I'm sad because I didn't see that they came in different sizes so you can see they are a little underwhelming on my mantel. Regardless, the pieces are beautiful and I am pleased with the purchase. I just wanted to add a pop of color with something my dumb cat can't knock of and shatter on the granite hearth." —Jeanqua
Get a pair from Amazon for $28.99+ (available in four sizes and six colors).
22. An absolutely beautiful set of handblown colored wineglasses begging to be displayed in your wine cabinet. These will make your evening glass of wine feel even more special.

23. A neon rainbow light to brighten up any rainy, gloomy day. You can set it up on a desk or hang it on a wall!
Promising review: "Looks like real, expensive neon lighting. I'm obsessed. With my keen attention to detail, I was scared at first that it wouldn't look anything like real neon, but it looks even better. Also love that it can be powered by USB input!" —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $15.98.
24. A button-tufted storage ottoman that doubles as both hidden storage *and* extra seating, a match made in heaven for apartments and smaller homes. It comes in some seriously gorgeous shades, from emerald green to dark teal and rose pink.
Promising reviews: "Wanna feel like a 1930s glamorous femme fatale that just killed her husband in a fit of passion and is cooling down with a glass of wine and a cigarette? Look no further than this ottoman. You won’t regret your choice." —K
"This was a GREAT buy! I’ve gotten so many compliments on this piece. The color is even more beautiful in person. It’s sturdy, but lightweight, and has a good amount of storage space. I’m considering buying a different color for my bedroom." —Alexis L.
Get it from Amazon for $249.99+ (available in six colors).
25. A sunset lamp to drench a room in rosy warm light with shades of orange, yellow, and red, perfect for selfies and ~ambience~.
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: "This lamp really exceeded my expectations. I bought it on a whim and honestly wasn't expecting that much, but I'm really happy with it. Feels like it's made of durable, quality material and emits a strong light, but it's not too bright — I use it in the evenings when I'm trying to wind down before bed and it's bright enough to light up my room without feeling like it's going to mess up my sleep cycle. Highly recommend — really does feel like you're watching a lovely sunset :)" —amazon customer
Get it from Amazon for $14.99+ (available in two styles).
26. 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 crazy, 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 $44.99+ (available in two styles).
27. A vibrant and Insta-worthy fruit tart pet bed to bring some fun, colorful flair to your floor — and, of course, offering your pets a cozy place to catch some Z's while they snuggle a strawberry. Covered in faux fur with a foam core, this plush bed is an adorable option for smaller kitties and pups.
Note that this bed is on the smaller size, measuring 15.7 inches wide, and that's for the large. That means it's ideal for smaller fur babies (though that probably won't stop larger ones from trying to crawl in). Check out one BuzzFeed Shopping editor's review of the fruit tart bed for more deets (that's her kitty on the left above!).
Promising review: "Purchased this for our new little Shih-tzu puppy. Fit perfectly for her, and now that she is almost fully grown she still uses it, and she is around 11-12 pounds now. It's sturdy; we washed it and had no issues, same with the little fruits. The colors are vibrant in the fabric and withstand well to puppy teeth. Overall great purchase, super happy." —AmazonCustomer
Get it from Amazon for $35.99.
28. An abstract and artsy shower curtain that'll look especially vibrant in a white-tiled bathroom — because who said we can't have some color in here too? Now you'll be surrounded by beauty even while you're scrubbing down.
Promising review: "Cute shower curtain to mix up the bathroom. The print is very cute and goes well with the light pink tiles in my bathroom. The print is very accurate to the picture, colors are just as vibrant, and the picture is clear. It is as good of a shower curtain as any; not particularly nice but it's not see-through and it dries quickly when it gets wet." —Nicole Adler
Get it from Amazon for $16.99+ (available in four sizes).
29. A set of ombre curtains to add a whimsical touch to your windows — they might be marketed as kids' room curtains, but I think these would look gorgeous in any room needing some color. They're sheers, so keep that in mind — they can be layered with matching blackout curtains if needed.
Promising reviews: "I love these so much; they really warmed up my house and added a pop of color. They are see-through but they are amazing." —Emily Henson
"These curtains are absolutely beautiful! The yellow is a nice balance—not too bright, not too dull. They soften the room and add just the right pop of color for my guest room. No regrets with this purchase whatsoever!" —kamano17
Get a set of two from Amazon for $18.99+ (available in eight sizes and colors). If needed, you can find matching blackout curtains here.

Promising review: "This little planter is so bright and lovely! I ordered the medium size with a drainage hole drilled, and it's perfect. Shipped as advertised, arrived in great shape. Colors are as advertised too. It brightened up my porch and my pencil cactus is SO much happier in this ceramic pot than its previous plastic one." —Trimble
Get it from Kailo Chic on Etsy for $17.49+ (available in five ombre patterns and six sizes).

32. A luxe-looking set of emerald green satin pillowcases if you're tired of your all-neutral bedding — they're available in a bunch of other colors too! Satin pillowcases aren't just a budget-friendly alternative to silk; they also help prevent breakage, frizz, and tangles in your hair, and your skin will feel happier too since these won't dry it out.
Promising reviews: "We have an all-white bed, but I wanted a pop of color and these pillowcase covers fit the bill! We bought the gold ones and they are very comfy and stylish. They wash up well and I love that they have the fold to cover the pillow at the opening. My husband actually even commented on how much he liked them! Not scratchy at all and great on my sensitive skin." —threelittlekittens
"We have bought at least six different brands of these kinds of pillowcases over the years via Amazon. We always order standard-size pillowcases but invariably, we end up with queen-size ones. These standard-size pillowcases really are standard size. And though all the brands that advertise under the 'satin,' 'sateen,' or 'silk' pillowcase category represent that their products 'feel like' silk, these pillowcases really do feel silky. We have only washed them (cold water and line-dried only) a few times, but they seem as though they will hold up. They are the best and most comfortable that we have yet to find on Amazon." —George Scarlatta
Get them from Amazon for $8.99+ (available in four sizes and 21 colors).

Promising review: "These light switch covers are SO cute! And they're completely unlike anything I've seen before from other stores. I've always wanted to upgrade my light switch covers to something more colorful and exciting but couldn't find anything I loved or that really matched my style. These are PERFECT. And so high quality! They're thicker than normal/standard light switch covers so I was happy to see that longer screws were included to install them. Shipping took a long time but I wasn't in a rush and they were worth the wait." —Kayla H.
Get a two-pack from MindFlowers for $60+ (available in eight switch types and 16 color schemes with customization available).

Promising review: "Just received these cute little boxes and am in love with them. Very thick and sturdy plastic but easy enough to open. These will work perfectly for filling solid perfumes and giving out as stocking stuffer gifts as I don't have to worry about it being a snug fit/lid falling off. I imagine these would also be great for pretend food for kids' play sets or for a kid's trinket box. Overall I love them, love their feel, love the colors, and am very happy." —Mary

Get it from Galisfly on Etsy for $79+ (available in three sizes).
38. A sophisticated framed abstract art print from the Jungalow collection at Target to throw some color up on your wall and give you something to gaze at when your mind wanders. It'd make the perfect centerpiece for a gallery wall, but it can easily stand on its own as well.
Promising review: "Colors are great and it has a nice texture that gives it just a little more something. The frame mimics walnut and it's really a nice addition to the print. We hung this up near the laundry closet to brighten up the space and it really makes that area just a little more pleasant." —LMKodat
