1. A surprisingly elegant two-drawer filing cabinet, because functionality doesn’t have to be boring. This cabinet gives you plenty of space to organize all your most important pieces of paperwork — and with those clean lines and gold accents, it’s lovely to look at, too.
2. A curtain of fairy lights so magical, you’ll swear you’ve gone to Narnia every time you turn it on. Whether you hang it in a window or use it for something a little less conventional – for instance, as a playful yet elegant solution to the ever-present “should I get a headboard for my bed or not?” conundrum – this 150-light curtain adds a splash of sparkle to any room.
3. A stunning mid-century modern-inspired sectional that’s as eye-catching as it is comfortable. With a solid wood frame and a reversible chaise, this piece is both flexible and beautiful – and reviewers just cannot stop raving about how relaxing it is to sit on.
4. Or, a colorful slipcover that’ll make your old sofa over easily and inexpensively. Designed for box cushion sofas with rolled arms, this stretchy slipcover slides right over your couch’s frame and cushions, instantly turning an out-of-date or damaged piece into something shiny and new. It’s like magic!
5. A faux palm plant, because every home is cozier with a little greenery – even when said greenery isn't actually, uh, alive. If you have trouble keeping real growing things happy and healthy (hi, it’s me, I’m talking about me), picks like this surprisingly realistic faux palm can still help transform your surroundings into the plant-filled sanctuary you’ve been dreaming of anyway – no plant food or watering cans required.
6. A set of 16(!) stackable refrigerator organizer bins, so you can finally get your fridge under control and stop losing things aaaaaaaaall the way in the back before they… turn. (Yuck.) This set has everything from wide and narrow bins to lidded ice cube trays – and believe you me: As a recent fridge bin convert, these things make a huge difference in ease of navigation in there.
7. The cutest dang storage basket you’ve ever seen, because when your storage solutions are also squee-worthy – well, that’s the best of both worlds, isn’t it? Woven from water hyacinth reeds, this cat-shaped basket is purrrrr-fect for stashing blankets, toys (for both human children and furbabies alike!), and other odds and ends, while also giving you something unfathomably sweet to look at, too.
8. A bamboo bath tray for the most luxurious of self-care nights. Go ahead – draw yourself a bath. Use your favorite bath bombs or essential oils. Pour yourself a glass of something, slide it into the cupholder, light a candle or two, and prop your current read up on the handy book holder. It’s time to ~relaaaaaaaax~. You deserve it. Yes, you do. Aren’t you glad you transformed your bathroom into the spa of your dreams?
9. And a teak bath mat that’ll keep you from slipping on wet tiles in style. Teak is naturally resistant to mold and mildew (that’s why some of the fanciest outdoor furniture is made out of it), meaning it’s ideal for a bathtub or shower situation – and unlike rug-style bath mats, this one is meant to stand the test of time. Also, it’s beautiful. What’s not to love?
10. A lift-top coffee table packing both tons of storage and a handy work-from-home spot. (Nothing beats a good piece of multifunctional furniture when it comes making your home a better place to live, am I right?) With a sturdy steel frame, a roomy interior, and even three additional cubbies below for décor items or even more storage, this piece is basically a TARDIS; you'll swear it’s bigger on the inside. Add to that a fantastic workspace when the top is up, and this might just be the platonic ideal of a coffee table.
11. A cute and cozy area rug that’s a delight both to look at and to walk on. Neutral but not boring and with a high pile that’s devastatingly soft, this pick will liven up any floor and provide the perfect backdrop to showcase your signature design scheme against.
12. A triptych of modern, geometric wall art, because nothing makes a space feel lived-in and loved like walls that aren’t, y’know, absolutely bare. These three coordinating pieces hang together beautifully; or, split ‘em up and add a splash of color to different walls. Either way, it’ll make your place into a home, you know?
13. A ridiculously pretty essential oil diffuser that’ll fill your home with the sweetest of scents and a gorgeous piece of décor, all in one go. Seriously – nothing will make you want to stay home more than a space that always radiates your absolute favorite scent. It is the best. This one even lights up in seven different colors!
14. A Le Creuset stoneware French press coffee maker, so you can pretend your kitchen is a chic little café every time you go to brew yourself a cup. Beautiful, built to last, and also very good at what it does, this gorgeous little French press is the perfect way to start your morning off right.
15. And an automatic milk frother, so you can make yourself fancy lattes whenever you want, right from the comfort of your own home. This neat little device will not only froth your milk, but also warm it to the perfect temperature – and then keep it there, thanks to the insulated double walls. Starbucks who?
16. A gorgeously glam console table that’ll help fill up that weird empty space you don’t really know what to do with – whether it’s in a hallway or right in your living room. With a sleek, streamlined profile and goes-with-anything design, it works equally well for décor display space as it does as, say, a desk for a compact work-from-home setup or a makeup vanity.
17. A ludicrously soft faux fur throw blanket, so you can snuggle up in comfort and style when the night gets a little chilly. Reviewers say it’s big enough for two people – but it’s also A-OK if you just want to keep it for yourself. No one will blame you for it. That’s how soft it is.
18. A futuristic spoked ceiling light that’s way more exciting to look at than the dreaded boob light. With 10 lil' “arms” radiating out asymmetrically from a central point, this piece packs so. much. visual interest – and illumination! Your ceiling won’t know what hit it.
19. Or, a vintage-chic globe wall sconce or two, because sometimes you need something a little more focused than a full-on overhead. This gorgeous sconce plugs in, too; all you have to do is mount it near an outlet, plug it in, and turn it on to illuminate your space with a soothing, subtle flow – no need to mess around with wiring.
20. A unique geometric bookcase, so you can seamlessly integrate your TBR pile with your design scheme. Reviewers say they’re truly astonished by the number of books this shelf holds – and it displays them in such a visually arresting way, you’d be forgiven for mistaking it for a sculpture in a museum. Bookworms, unite!
21. A trio of rattan storage baskets that’ll make your closets not just super organized, but super ~aesthetic~, too. Ideal for anything from hand towels to dry goods, these baskets all have handles for easy grabbing and stashing – and they’re all different sizes, so a) you’ve got options when it comes to what needs storing and how you store, and b) they nest together when not in use.
22. A full-length mirror with an elegant, arched frame, because nothing helps open up a space like a huge, reflective surface. Whether wall-hung or propped up on the floor, this piece’s unique shape even lets you fake a window easily, if your place doesn’t have many of them. A well-lit, spacious-feeling home is a comfy home.
23. A chunky knit pouf that’ll give you somewhere cozy to kick your feet up on at the end of a long day. Think of it like a mini, grown-up version of a beanbag chair meant just for your toesies. Bonus: It comes in tons of colors, so no matter what your aesthetic might be, there’s almost certain to be a pouf to match.
24. And a round velvet accent pillow to complete your space's ~lewk~. Nothing pulls a living room or bedroom together like a few well-chosen throw pillows – and this one is luxe, colorful, and cozy to boot.
25. A kitchen island poised to become the MVP of your food prep space. With a two-door cabinet, three doors, and a towel bar, this wheeled pick offers lots of practical storage space – but that’s not all: The solid wood countertop also has a collapsible leaf, which, when folded out, gives you enough additional surface space to actually use it as a dining spot. Always appreciated!
26. A beautiful (yes, really) multifunction showerhead that’ll transform your bathroom into the most luxurious of home spas. With five different spray patterns to choose from and a detachable hand shower, you’re sure to find your soothing shower sweet spot. It’s available in a bunch of different colors and finishes to suit any design scheme, too.
27. A retro-style, wood-framed armchair you'll find every possible excuse to sit in – or just gaze upon adoringly. The solid rubberwood frame ensures study construction; reviewers say they are wonderfully comfortable; and the silhouette is just so cool. Just like your home will be with this pick in it. It all comes full circle, you see.
28. A comfy gel memory foam mattress, because, I mean, you spend a third of your life sleeping. You deserve to have something good to do it on when you're snoozing at home. This medium-firmness mattress is designed so that you don’t feel any other motion in the bed; also, it’s breathable and features cooling technology, which — as most people who sleep hot can tell you (me, it’s me, I’m people) — is a boon when it comes to maintaining a comfortable snoozing temperature.
29. And a set of excellent sheets to go with it. (Why sleep on scratchy sheets if you don’t have to?) This 1,000-thread count, 100% Egyptian-quality cotton set will send you off to the land of Nod in cool, soft comfort.
30. And lastly, a delightful little cast-iron llama figurine because, I mean… it’s just fun to have in your space, and sometimes, that’s enough. Stick him on your mantle. Set him on your coffee table. Heck, let him guard your desk or workspace – he’s more than up for the job. Good llama. Well done. No drama here.
