Promising review: "I love these lamps. The mercury glass looks beautiful with the light on or off. The shades are a nice white with a nice linen pattern. I really like the size. They are big enough to have a strong presence, but not too big. We put in a brighter bulb than the one that came with the lamps. I highly recommend these lamps." —firefly77 Get it from Amazon for $36.52+ (available in six colors). Promising review: "I love this tree. You will need a pot for it. It’s a nice height, and it’s full enough. Looks good. The wicker pot I have is too big, but I purchased some Spanish moss. That will hide the bubble wrap that I have around it. Highly recommend. The price is good as well." —Mindy Get it from Amazon for $44.99+ (available in two heights). Promising review: "Very cute mirror, looks just like the pictures. Arrived well packaged. No distortion in the reflection. The fabric is soft and velvety. Size matches the description. Easy to hang. Quality is fair for the price, very pleased with this item." —R.e.Mc Get it from Amazon for $22.99+ (available in two sizes, 13 colors, and two other styles). Promising review: "I’ve been eyeing those high-end arch mirrors for a while, but I couldn't justify the $300 price tag. This one looks almost identical for a fraction of the cost. The gold finish is a really nice, soft brushed tone — not that cheap, shiny 'yellow' gold you sometimes see. The 20-by-30-inch size is perfect for a bathroom vanity or an entryway. It’s heavy enough to feel high-quality and sturdy, but not so heavy that I was worried about it falling off the wall. The glass is crystal clear with no weird warping or "funhouse" effects, which is always a risk with more affordable mirrors. Installation was a breeze since it came with all the necessary hardware. It completely opened up my small hallway and added a touch of elegance. If you’re looking to refresh a room with that trendy arched look, you really can't beat this one!" —ShopMom Get it from Amazon for $35.99+ (available in 11 sizes and three colors). Promising review: "Really love the three sizes in the pack and the fluted design on the ceramic. They are sturdy and didn't move a bit on our front porch during some heavy winds. There is a drain hole in the bottom with a rubber plug in it that you can remove if you need to use the drain function. Really happy with these!" —RDS Get it from Amazon for $32.75+ (available in two individual sizes, a variety pack of three sizes, and in black). Promising review: "I purchased these linen pillow covers to protect some of my couch pillows that couldn't be machine-washed. With kids in the house, I wanted something practical that I could easily remove and toss in the wash whenever spills or messes happened, and these have worked out perfectly. The zipper is smooth and easy to use, making it simple to take the covers on and off. I've already washed them three to four times, and they've held up very well with no noticeable shedding, fraying, or loss of quality. The fabric still looks great and maintains its shape after washing. Overall, these covers are an affordable and practical solution for keeping decorative pillows clean, especially in a household with children or pets. I'm very happy with this purchase and would buy them again." —Amy Get a two-pack from Amazon for $16.99+ (available in 10 sizes and 41 colors). Promising review: "Absolutely looooved them, fell in love with these instantly. Will be ordering in different colors!!! Quality and looks are stunning, zipper was easy to close, and don’t even get me started on how soft they are!! The color was lighter than expected but still fit perfectly with my organic modern house decor!!" —Cupycake23 Get a two-pack from Amazon for $16.99 (available in seven sizes and 37 colors). Promising review: "Such a dope tray design. Very subtle but catches the attention of anyone that steps into my living room. I originally bought the white one, and as soon as I saw it, I immediately bought the gold one. So happy with these trays and I highly recommend them." —Rik Get it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in two sizes and five colors). Promising review: "Beautiful! I absolutely love this candle holder! It’s just as pictured and was very easy to hang." —Nikki F Get it from Anthropologie for $16.80+ (originally $24; available in four colors). Get it from Urban Outfitters for $12 (originally $20). Promising review: "Very nice tassel garland. The wood beads and rustic tassel look simple, natural, and pretty. It adds a cute boho touch to my table decor and is easy to style." —Sonia Aranda Promising review: "I bought this months ago, and I love it. It was very easy to set up. The size was exactly what I was looking for. It also holds my vinyls with ease. This product is also pretty sturdy. The thickness of this product is good; it's not thin, but it's not too thick. It makes my background look cool when I stream. I can't wait to add more vinyls to my collection and put them on these." —ChloeanneB Get a pack of four from Amazon for $9.99 (also available in packs of 8, 12, and 18). Get it from H&M Home for $22.99 (originally $49.99). Promising review: "Just what I was looking for in a night-light. It has a dimmer, which is a great addition. Easy to assemble, and the cream color suits our furniture well. Plan to get two more in different colors for our nightstand." —Dalya Kent Get it from Amazon for $37.99+ (available in 13 colors and two styles). Promising review: "These arrived in a double box, so they were intact and had no damage. I absolutely love them. Very high quality, and the wooden frame is a nice touch! I just put in another order with them." —Taylor Lucas Get it from Amazon for $27.99+ (available in three sizes and two frame colors). Promising review: "Exactly what I wanted and 100% surprised with how real they actually look and feel. Definitely a great pick if I say so myself. Ties the coffee table decor altogether effortlessly. Couldn’t be any happier with them. Excellent price point, easy to assemble, lightweight, sturdy, with fabulous colors. Definitely would purchase again." —Reviewed it ! Get it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in 14 bundles). Promising review: "These shelves are wonderful. The package arrived in a timely manner, undamaged. The box had a level in it, and they were easy to hang on sheet rock walls with the provided anchors and hardware. It took my husband and me about 20–25 minutes to hang both shelves. They look lovely on the wall and have a decent weight capacity. I could put way more on them than I have currently without worry. These ones are in my closet. If I end up needing more floating shelves, I will definitely consider buying more of these!" —Kate Get a set of two from Amazon for $37.98+ (available in various sizes and nine finishes). Promising review: "This ceramic vase is so pretty. I bought it for my living room table, but decided to use it on my kitchen table. It looks great anywhere I place it. It looks great with or without the flowers." —Amazon Customer Get it from Amazon for $24.29+ (available in two sizes and three colors). Promising review: "These sconces are amazing! So easy to put together and mount onto the wall. The instructions are very clear and easy to follow. I’m 24 weeks pregnant and had no issues putting these up for my baby’s nursery. They’re rechargeable, which is a huge plus, change different colors, and have light settings to dim or brighten, all with a remote!" —Kira Casas Get a set of two from Amazon for $37.99+ (available in three sizes, five colors, a set of four, and another style). Promising review: "We live in California and are attempting to get rid of all the glass and wooden/metal frames on our walls, in the event of an earthquake, bumping, etc. Some of our 5-by-7-inch family photos are right over the bed, so we sleep better, knowing that these lightweight and plastic pieces won't be dangerous, should they fall, like the glass and wooden frames they're replacing. They're so easy to use, they're reasonably priced, and you can order various sizes. Be sure to peel off BOTH sides of the clear plastic that goes over your photos or art. Very happy with this product and have ordered several sets." —Seasongs Get a pack of 10 from Amazon for $26.99+ (available in 10 sizes and six colors). Promising review: "I added this artificial eucalyptus arrangement to my living room, and I’m genuinely impressed with how much life and freshness it brings to the space without any care required. The sage-green eucalyptus stems look surprisingly realistic, and the faux water detail in the glass vase adds a nice touch of authenticity that makes it feel less 'fake' than other artificial plants I’ve seen." —Mona Promising review: "Beautiful candle warmer! I love burning candles in my home for the ambiance and aroma, but then the candles run out quicker. This is an awesome way to get the nice cozy ambiance and aroma without wasting the candle. Directions to set up were very easy to follow, and it was a nice touch that it came with an extra bulb. I love how easy it is to adjust the height and the timer feature. This ensures I never forget to turn it off. Great purchase!" —Chelsea Get it from Amazon for $20.50+ (available in eight colors). Promising review: "Love the build and thick, real cotton weave. Great for small to medium-sized household items. They're just a tad stretchy, too, so you can reshape the factory fold if you store something heavy in it for a while. The lovely neutral color will blend well anywhere in the house, and the handles make it easy for kids to pick up! They also fold for long-term storage. Versatile, attractive, and extremely well made!" —David Get a set of three from Amazon for $34.95+ (available in two sizes and 13 colors). Promising review: "Pottery Barn quality with a realistic price tag. Felt feet on the bottom so won’t damage furniture. Arrived in good condition and great packaging. Bought the smaller one also. Versatile for year-round usage." —K Get it from Target for $25+ (available in two sizes). Promising review: "This wood knot décor piece is beautiful and well-made. The wood has a nice finish and feels solid, and the design adds a modern yet natural touch to the space. It’s simple, but it really stands out as a decorative accent. I placed it on a shelf, and it instantly elevated the look of the area. It pairs well with other décor items and works great in living rooms, bedrooms, or offices. The size is just right — not too big or too small." —Barbara Get it from Amazon for $14.99+ (available in 16 colors). Promising review: "These candles are exactly what I was looking for. There is nothing about them I don’t like. I like that the brightness (flame) is adjustable and the timer is a big bonus." —L.M. Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in seven colors/patterns). Promising review: "My fruit bowl is perfect. The quality is great, very rich looking, and looks beautiful on my island with fruit in it. I definitely will purchase again from Kivy." —Sharon Colangelo Get it from Amazon for $39.99+ (available in two colors, a ribbed version, and two tray styles). * If You Think Beige Is The Worst, Here Are 31 Colorful Pieces Of Furniture And Decor * Just 31 Of The Most Comfortable Chairs Your Butt Will Thank You For * Home Is Your Happy Place, And It Needs Happy Things, So Here Are 26 Pieces Of Decor To Help * Products If Your Decor Ambitions Are Huge But Your Space…Is Not * If You Refuse To Let Having Cats Ruin Your Aesthetic, Here Are 24 Products That’ll Fit Into Your Home’s Decor Plus, finds from Anthropologie, Article, Walmart, and Wayfair.
