It can be tough to find an accent rug that won’t break the bank, but this one is absolutely beautiful and won’t cost more than your apartment. “Runners are a great way to add character throughout your home in long hallways, entryways, and even the kitchen,” says El Sanyoura. If you’re not sure where they fit into the equation of your home, take this tip: “They can look great layered over a neutral rug you might already own, or even on top of carpeting.”

03

An Extra Large Storage Basket That Doubles As A Hamper

El Sanyoura loves this extra large storage basket for its clutter-control factor: “To elevate your space, utilize baskets to create additional storage around your home.” It’s available in five cute colorblock designs, and it’s made of 100% cotton, which is hypoallergenic and kind to sensitive skin. El Sanyoura uses them “for extra throw blankets and pillows, children’s toys, and even your spare wires, plugs, and gaming accessories!”

Home designer at Opendoor Yasmine El Sanyoura thinks that adjustable curtain rods are “often overlooked,” noting that “the right curtain rods (at the right placement) can really make the whole home feel more expensive!

These Handmade Ceramic Vases With A Donut Design

Nichole Abbott, an interior designer at FLOOR360, loves these handcrafted ceramic vases for their unique donut design. “Fluid organic shapes are high in demand for adding a modern feel to your space,” says Abbott. “Homeowners are drawn to fluid organic shapes for the soothing feeling they convey.” So what should you store in them? “A matching set of objects created in this shape will look fine on their own or with pampas grass.”

07

This Dried Pampas Grass That’s A Low-Maintenance Alternative To Flowers

If you’re in the market for a hypoallergenic plant that requires zero maintenance, look no further than this dried pampas grass. Bucur is a huge fan: “From an interior design perspective, pampas grass is unmatched if you want to create an eclectic farmhouse style decor and you can use this collection of pampas grasses to bring that farmhouse vibe into your dining room.” No matter your taste, you can make this grass fit your space, because “the best thing about them is that they come in multiple shades and different shapes which is perfect for creating a perceived random pattern.”

08

A Knot Pillow That’s Unbelievably Soft

For a cozy addition to any room, Abbott recommends this knot pillow, which features a plush microfiber filling, because of the way it can “soften the angles of your sofa, sectional or chair with a knot pillow ball. It’s more decorative than functional, it’s the overall effect the round softness will have on the feel of your space.” Choose between 13 adorable colors, from classic neutrals to pretty pastels, and rest easy knowing that each pillow is skin and pet-friendly.

These Wood Candle Holders That Give Your Space A Rustic Charm

Raquel Kehler, a house flipper and interior design creator at RoomCrush.com, cites tealight candles as “a great way to add a warm and inviting ambiance to a room without spending a fortune on larger candles. To give your tealight holders a unique spin that adds to your decor, choose interesting finishes and shapes like rounded wood, colorful glass, or terracotta.” These wood candle holders are made with unvarnished beech wood that is sure to give your space a rustic charm.

11

These Battery-Operated Tea Lights That Look Incredible With The Wood Candle Holders

If you love the set of wooden candle holders but currently have home restrictions on candles, these battery-operated tealight candles would be the perfect substitution.

These Brass Knobs With A Modern Matte Finish

Elevate your kitchen and/or bathroom with these brass knobs; their modern matte finish makes them compatible with most decorative styles, and they’re super easy to install. “While the kitchen and bathroom are typically top of the list for a remodel, you can give both rooms a facelift without having to do a major upgrade simply by switching out the knobs and handles,” says El Sanyoura. When installed properly, they can withstand up to 40 pounds of weight at a time, so they’ll even work with heavy-duty cabinets and drawers.

Stefan Bucur, founder and owner of Rhythm of the Home, loves a candle warmer for a classic centerpiece that, as an added bonus, smells amazing.

They’re a fantastic option to not only bring a classy vibe but also a pleasant smell to the table.” Pick up as many of these black and bronze pieces, which come with three-foot cords and on/off switches, as you like, so you can “add it in phases for a more sophisticated look, for example, one in the middle of the foyer hall tree and two at the extremities.”

14

A Soy Aromatherapy Candle With A 25-Hour Burn Time

Bucur loves the eco-friendly factor of this soy aromatherapy candle: “Apart from the fact that soy candles last longer on average than wax they are also biodegradable and have a lower environmental impact in their manufacturing process. A soy candle will help beautify your living room and also add a pleasant smell that is not overwhelming when compared to some wax candles.” With their 25-hour burn times, which means you won’t have to restock very often, you can “add these soy candles to the candle warmers and you have the perfect combo.”

This Abstract Wall Art That Brings The Rainbow To Your Home

Simran Kaur, the founder of Room You Love, recommends a colorful pop of abstract wall art to brighten up any space: “With more modern tastes invading our homes, we are drifting away from colors. That can often make our homes look just too simple, boring, and bland. But adding some pops of colors with wall art is the smartest way to make the space feel inviting, moody, and personal.” Even minimalist decorators who live for a neutral color palette will appreciate these three prints, which come in five stunning designs, because “colors in homes are like salt in food. Can’t do without them.”

The way you light your home can make all the difference, according to Kaur: “Good lights make a home feel welcoming and warm. And the moment you change the lighting, you change the mood of the space… that’s why it’s integral to choose the best lighting.” This crystal vanity light with a waterproof base is a fantastic choice, thanks to its intricate design and powerful LED bulbs.
