Some floating shelves to install in your bathroom for extra storage. Most bathrooms just have a few towel rods, so installing these will give you plenty of opportunities to show off your gorgeous candles, ceramics, and hand towels. Or just extra toilet paper — who knows!

A quilted chenille floor pillow for creating impromptu seating for yourself or visitors. From nurseries to media rooms, these provide comfortable, versatile seating without sacrificing style. Plus, they stack when not in use.

A minimalist-meets-industrial bookshelf to show off your collection of books or artfully display your favorite plants, tiny sculptures, and other important knickknacks. There are lots of color combinations and sizes available, so you're sure to find something that meets all your needs and fits perfectly in your home.

Promising review: "My husband and daughter made fun of me for purchasing a 'floor pillow'…but guess who uses it all the time? They do! It’s a great pillow — comfortable, wears well, and easy to store (I just slide it between our bookcase and couch)." —Brittany

Promising review: "If you're looking for an aesthetically pleasing, comfy chair — this is it. I was looking for something that would be comfortable enough to get me to work out of bed (a vice of mine). I prefer wide chairs so I can sit cross legged or any other position that strikes my fancy. Roller chairs bug me and my room is too small for me to need that much mobility. Plus, since the chair has no arms, it easily slides under my desk, making my room feel more spacious when I'm not working. It's really gorgeous and I'm so happy I found it. Worth every penny." —alexander bank

Get it from Amazon for $179.99+ (available in two colors).

Promising review: "I love this product so much, I was actually a little surprised at how amazing the quality was when it arrived! The fingers are slightly different sizes so you can store different sizes of rings, and they're spaced perfectly so I could fit all of my bulkier rings as well. The product is a hard plastic type of a material, and doesn't feel like it could break easily. It's also nice and sturdy so you don't have to worry about your rings flying everywhere if you accidentally bump it. Definitely gonna buy more soon to fit my other ring. 💕 I highly recommend purchasing!!" —Kitty

Get it from Amazon for $9.99 (available in seven colors).

Promising review: "This is exactly what I was looking for! Inexpensive, but very sturdy. I've had it for about a year and a half now, and there are no signs of chipping or anything on the finish. I have a foam mattress on it... didn't need a boxspring. It's lightweight but very sturdy. It's tall enough for my dog to sleep underneath and for under bed storage." —Carla

Get it from Amazon for $207.99+ (available in Twin, Full, and Queen sizes and three finishes).

Sets come with a flat sheet, fitted sheet, and two pillowcases (with only one pillowcase included in the Twin size).

Promising review: "These are the real deal!! I found them from a TikTok and my husband actually said after the first night, 'Let’s just replace all of our sheets with these, they’re so comfortable!' It’s a beautiful blue and white pattern. They wash well and breathe at night — I am always hot but these stayed cool. Definitely buying more!" —Julia Monroe

Get it from Amazon for $34.97+ (available in sizes Twin—California King and 41 colors).

Promising review: "LOVE THESE! They are a beautiful shade of gray, well-made, and a perfect price! I ordered these to help protect against hair breakage and I've already noticed a huge difference!!!" —shawnellnewberry

Get them from Amazon for $7.99+ (available in four sizes and 23 colors).

Promising review: "These shelves are so beautiful! My bathroom doesn't have a counter around the sink so this is perfect. It is modern and sleek and the wood and cast-iron shelves are very well built and sturdy. I was surprised that these are such high quality considering the price." —Vincent

Get a set of two from Amazon for $15.99+ (available in five colors).

Promising review: "Color, shape, feel — all first-rate. Your eye is immediately drawn to them, before you notice anything else in the room. I think the term eye-popping applies." —ron

Get it from Amazon for $16.99+ (available in 32 colors).

Promising review: "I love this shelf! I needed something tall to fill empty space and store books and plants. Each shelf is very heavy duty, so I can't imagine any bowing would occur in the future, unless it's got too much humidity. Before we put weight on the shelves, it had gaps between itself the wall, but it balanced itself out after adding books. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this shelf. It's definitely going to last longer than anything you could buy at Ikea and it has VERY little wasted/unusable space. Just do it! I put it together myself, but I had to hold it steady/leveled while hubby secured it to the wall. It's not impossible to do alone, but get a second person to at least hold it still for you." —Mrs K3NNYB0Y

Get it from Amazon for $120.99+ (available in various colors and styles).

Promising review: "After seeing an orb lamp at West Elm I went looking for one that isn’t $500. This lamp is definitely a shiny, brassy gold and not a satin, champagne-color gold, but I actually love the color! My new house has a much more vintage, art-deco vibe than my last place, and I think it fits right in with that. The milky orbs are beautiful and make the light nice and warm. It is pretty bright, but that works for me. I have it in a corner of my office that I don’t look directly at very often and think it will be the perfect alternative to overhead lights. All-in-all I’m a huge fan and highly recommend!" —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "I was using a small foldable step stool in my bedroom to reach the top shelves of my wardrobe. But you know, those things aren’t pretty. It wasn’t bringing me joy, just begrudging utility. This ottoman brings me joy. It’s pretty, it’s lightweight so I can move it easily to use it as a step stool, and the storage capacity is perfect for things like my nightly moisturizers, my Kindle and journals, and other little miscellaneous things." —Monica N.

Get it from Amazon for $39.99 (available in six colors).

Promising review: "Love, love, love this wall paper!!! It is beautiful and unique, refined and elegant, and heavy-duty quality. I found it super easy to install, though I opted to use it for a room border versus full wall coverage. I also found it very forgiving, allowing me to pull it back off and adjust areas without leaving permanent dents in the design. It gave my son’s bedroom a whole new look and I have gotten lots of compliments on this wallpaper!" —MB

Get it from Amazon for $27.99+ (available in frost, navy, and powder).

Promising review: "I am in love with this little clock. It’s as adorable as it looks online and fits in perfectly with my decor. I appreciate its small size and neutral hues. The face is easy-to-read. It’s easy-to-use, just like the clocks of yore. I’m relieved to hear no ticking and to have its very gentle light only when I press for it at night. So far, it seems to keep time well. My only wish would be a more pleasant sounding alarm; goodness knows though, there’s certainly no chance of me oversleeping now that I have this to awaken me!" —Amanda

Get it from Pastel Design Studio on Etsy for $6.39.

Promising review: “I wish there was more than 5 STARS. This headboard is beautiful, very well made, the legs are easy to put on, comes with everything you need. The color, fabric, and button tufting is magnificent!!! When I finish building my home I will be purchasing more for the guest rooms. I bought a king size and it fits perfectly. A+ on quality and got it four days before estimated delivery.” —D.B.

Get it from Amazon for $87.34+ (available in twin, full, queen, and king and nine colors)

Promising review: "Absolutely stunning and everything I wanted — looks way better and more vivid IRL. I almost didn't buy this because the colors look so dull and old-school in the pics, and I wanted a more modern glam look. This was perfect. Took two of us to install and three-ish hours with breaks. Took the advice of previous reviewers and bought premixed paste from The Home Depot. Definitely don't go easy on the paste; you need enough on the wall to make it easier to adjust and align. Don't worry too much about the bubbles; once it dries down, it all adheres nicely. My guess is the bubbles are excess paste. The quality of this paper is thick and not sheer at all. However, I do think it will look nicer if there's a lighter color under it to begin with. For the price, this is definitely worth it and then some. I would have paid much more for this had I seen it in person. You won't regret it. :)" —Almond Joy

Get four panels from Amazon for $70.85.

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." —J.B.

Get it from Amazon for $8.99+ (available in 10 sizes).

Promising review: "So cute! A TikToker I follow had one in her room and I wanted one, so I ordered this. It's surprisingly heavy duty for the price — it's clearly good quality. It was easy to hang up and I love how it looks in my room! The phases were individually wrapped to keep them nice, which I appreciated. This would make a great gift, and it's worth the cost!" —Catherine Enters

Get it from Amazon for $13.98+ (available in gold, black, or silver and in a medium or large size).

Promising review: "This lamp is extremely pleasing to look at (I just ordered a second one). It is also equally easy to assemble. Make sure you place the lamp shade the correct side up or it will appear as if it doesn't cover the top of the bulb itself. The cord is a little short, so don't plan to place it too high up on a shelf. Overall, it really is an attractive lamp, and with the right bulb, it lights up a very good portion of the room. I'd like one in each room if I could." —Johanna K. E.

Get it from Amazon for $29.38+ (available in 15 colors).

Promising review: "This planter brings me so much joy every day! It is well crafted and beautifully packaged. I appreciate the extra touches, like the fact it comes with a few extra mirrored tiles and that there are different ways to display it — it comes with a stand and nicely braided hanging rope. Every day my whole living room becomes a party :) Cannot recommend enough." —Phil

Get it from Amazon for $27.97.

Promising review: "LOVE!!! it arrived safely in one piece without breaking or cracks, took seconds to put together, and isn’t wobbly at all. I would recommend!" —Aubree Sklar

Get it from Amazon for $9.95.

Promising review: "Installation was quick and easy, it's very very slim to the wall profile-wise. The heat output is great and it's quiet, it's heating an approximately 1,000-square foot basement to comfortable levels. I was frozen down here, now I just set the fireplace on low and it's 72 degrees Fahrenheit. Plus it looks awesome, the remote is easy enough to use. I've had tons of compliments on it." —m.code

Get it from Amazon for $179.99+ (available in six sizes).

Promising review: "Retired florist here...These roses have a velvet finish and for the money they are amazing.. I gave a few to a cashier at the grocery store, and she jumped up and down. At first, she thought they were fresh. When she realized they were artificial, she was even happier." —Michael Molinaro

Get it from Amazon for $15.99+ (available in seven colors).

Promising review: "The picture doesn't do justice to the iridescent paint. I ordered the pink lamp, and it glimmers with hues of purple and green. Very pretty and mermaid-esque. I was worried about the size because of other reviews, but the size is perfect and matches the product description. Any bigger would be too gaudy for a dresser or nightstand, in my opinion. It gives off as much light as your standard hallway nightlight, so maybe too dim for kids who are scared of the dark, but perfect for teens or adults who can't fall asleep with bright lights left on. I love that it's cordless so I can place it anywhere for decoration, though I haven't tested the battery longevity yet. My lamp arrived packaged in styrofoam and had zero damage. I'm very pleased. It reminds me of Urban Outfitters' aesthetic and is perfect for a modern cabana decor theme." —Natalia C.

Get it from Amazon for $29.99+ (available in pink or white).

Promising review: "After looking for an arched mirror for my apartment, I decided to buy this piece instead of dropping $400+ on one from Crate and Barrel or Urban Outfitters. And it’s PERFECT. Already assembled and exactly what I was hoping for. If you’re looking for an arched mirror and don’t want to spend major coin, I can’t recommend this mirror enough." —Garrick Patterson

Get it from Amazon for $109.99+ (available in two finishes).

Some reviewers note that they're way easier to hang up if you leave the strings tied, then untie them once you have the lights mounted where you want them. Also try layering them with some sheer curtains.

Promising review: "It's been a couple of years since I've had these but THEY ARE GREAT. I bought the curtain and lights separately and used it to create an accent wall in my teeny tiny NYC apartment. I got tons of compliments on them and it was SO easy to set up. I just used thumbtacks to place it into the wall (probably not the best idea but hey, it worked)." —katrinaforreal

Get them from Amazon for $20.28+ (available in seven different styles).

Promising review: "The mirror looks exactly like the pictures and was an absolute STEAL. So glad I found this. It's the perfect size for me to easily see my shoulders from just holding it an arm's length away! It's super lightweight, so don't worry about it being too heavy for the nail. It came completely undamaged! Looks super vintage and great for doing hairstyles and makeup in! It can also be a jewelry dish if you're into that kind of thing." —Rhonda Farias

Get it from Amazon for $13.99+ (available in gold or white, and in two-packs).

Promising review: "Love this clock! We originally got it for the office but decided to hang it above the bathroom mirror, so it serves as a night light, as well! We love it (my wife especially) and we definitely recommend it to other buyers! Did we mention it tells the date and temperature, too? :)" —Kevin Miller-Smead

Get it from Amazon for $13.99+ (available in two sizes and four colors).

Promising review: "This blanket is the most amazing thing ever! It is incredibly soft and lightweight. It is warm but not overwhelming. It looks great as a throw for decoration but so comfortable you have to use." —Fairykisses

Check out Kelsey Venkov's kitchen video on TikTok to see the rug on display.

Promising review: "I was very hesitant about the idea of washable rugs….OMG this rug came and I am so impressed, not only about the way it looks, but I love the way it feels. It is so soft on the surface and feels great on my feet. The kids came over and immediately fell in love with it. I think this rug is wonderful." —Kris M. Gomez

Promising review: "I LOVE this canopy! It's great for the price. It takes a minute to figure out which way it goes on the bed but don’t get discouraged, you’ll figure it out. This is meant to hang from the ceiling but you can make it work on posts. I tied the hook strings around the bed post and it holds great. It’s a great canopy." —Shonteka

Promising review: "For years I had a small table inside the door to hold keys, mail, etc. And for years I would knock into the table with my purse, groceries, or computer bag in the small space. But one needs a place to drop stuff and a mirror to check yourself on the way out. This mirror with a built-in tray is a perfect solution and adorable. Both the mirror and gold frame are flawless. I am really happy with this find." —Sold001

Get it from Amazon for $75+ (available in two finishes).

The portrait lights are battery-operated and wireless so you don't have to worry about hiring an electrician or doing any installation your self. Each unit runs off of three AAAs (get a 36-pack here before you forget!) and an included remote lets you set the light to different brightnesses and schedule a timer for15, 30, 60, or 120 minutes.

Promising review: "For the price, you can’t beat it. Super easy to install and lightweight. The gold had a slight orange tint to it, so be mindful of that. I actually just taped over the light and spray painted ours with gold spray paint I had left over and then they were absolutely perfect." —Paris Seder

Get it from Amazon for $28.99 (available in three colors).

Promising review: “Buy it!!!!! Absolutely stunning little dresser/night table. I am blown away by how well it's made and how well it was packaged. You can see that the particleboard that it was packaged with on top is sturdier than most Ikea furniture! I love this style and have not been able to find anything like this in stores. Each piece is unique since it's real wood! The drawers are soft closing and deep. It comes ready to go, aside from the legs which you must attach. I had some issues and customer service was quick and solved my issue! I will be purchasing additional furniture from this company and have already recommended them to my sister. I can't stop staring at it ❤️.” —Carmen Petru Tudosa

Promising review: "I LOVE this night-light. It's in my bathroom and is a lovely addition. It turns off the second the lights go on, which is nice because I don't have to worry about accidentally leaving it on. Super cute and the little itty-bitty lighting element does a good job lighting, just enough so I don't have to turn the main lights on in the middle of the night." —1Thand

Promising review: "The light is nice! It’s a unique looking light. I love how it has three different settings so you can adjust the brightness. It fits perfectly with my reading chaise and goes well with the rest of my living room decor. The only con I have is I wish the cord was clear instead of black, it sticks out. Other than that, I love the light. I’d definitely recommend it to others." —Carmelita Joy

J.bird Artisan Concrete is a woman-owned small business based in North Carolina making handcrafted concrete decor.

Get it from J.bird Artisan Concrete on Etsy for $25 (available in nine colors).

Promising review: "Bought the bronze color and it is just beautiful. It's weighty and looks of good quality and workmanship but is not so heavy that it’s hard to work with if you want to lean it or hang it. I wanted the Primrose from Anthropologie but it's hard to pay that price. This mirror is quality and has a lot better price. Move over, Primrose. I love it!." —Joni Bell

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
