www.amazon.com, Amazon
Brightech is a California-based small business that specializes in home lighting.
Promising review:"These lights really add a unique look to any space and look like they are high end. There are three dimmable options for the right type of light you are looking for controlled by a floor button. Adds a uniqueness and minimalist look to your space. Easy to put together, took five minutes." — Alexandra

Baroo Bloom/Etsy
Baroo Bloom is an Austria-based Etsy shop that specializes in wall art and stationery.
Promising review:"I am very happy with my purchase. I have a young daughter who is beginning to feel the peer pressures of growing up and is concerned about fitting in. I remember what that time period felt like for me, and I would never, ever go back! This picture is a bright, cheerful, and a fun reminder that being yourself is more fun and easy than being 'normal.'" — Kelly Wojcik
Get it from Baroo Bloom on Etsy for $4.37 (and check out a whole bunch of similar prints in the Etsy shop!).
3. A unique wavy corner bookshelf, because why would you get a standard version when this one can add so much more movement, whimsy, and intrigue to your room?!
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising review: "Super happy. For the price and simplicity of this corner shelf, I'm all for this product. It's was relatively easy to build — the wavy shape made it a little more confusing, but I built it in under an hour. It's easy to clean, too. I just use a white erase, and everything comes up. I've put rocks and books all over the shelf, so the weight limit is solid. Functional and cool I would recommend to a friend." — ashlynn
Get it from Amazon for $109.99+ (available in seven colors and in packs of two).
4. A cleverly designed slim side table perfect for smaller spaces where you *need* storage but can't fit a full-size side table. Plus no one is gonna believe this is from Amazon and not some amazing thrifted find.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising review: "This table is more attractive than I expected. Our first house guest commented that she thought I'd picked up an art deco piece at an antique store. I'm using it in the den as a side table beside a recliner. It fits perfectly and can easily hold a beverage (on a coaster!) and remotes; plus, it has two roomy drawers for tissues and other odds and ends. The workmanship is excellent. Overall, I'm extremely pleased. Well worth the price. — L M Gee
Get it from Amazon for $162.99 (also available in a set of two).
5. A wooden beaded garland that'll do for your vase what a necklace does for you — add a lil' somethin somethin. You can even drape it on the coffee table or bookshelf for a subtle farmhouse vibe.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising review: " Love, love, love! It's the perfect farmhouse accent! It's versatile and very pretty. It's not long enough to run my mantle length, but I've had several uses for it so far. It just brings pretty to any space you want to pop. It's thick, but not too thick either, and the beads are smooth and well-made." — May@36
Get it from Amazon for $10.69.
6. A charming marble pen cup where you can store your collection of writing utensils so they don't end up shoved in a junk drawer, or your makeup brushes so you never lose the eyeshadow one again. We love decor that's actually functional! 🙌🏼
Amazon

Get it from Amazon for $22.99.

www.amazon.com
Some reviewers even used mounting tape to minimize damage to their walls, and these could even be placed on doors or kitchen islands for a more modern look!
Promising review:"Moldings came in well-packed and quickly. It was super easy to install. Used White Lightning Speed Grip to adhere the panels. These panels gave a high-end look to an otherwise drab wall and peninsula. So classic and affordable and it will never go out of style!" — JM

Amazon
Promising review: "I fell in love with this mirror and the cool wavy designs. I have it on the floor and it is tall enough for me to see myself at full length. It is such a statement piece and adds to my modern abstract decor. It was packed very well and had foam a half-inch thick or more to cover the entire mirror. It is heavy and leans against the wall very securely. I love it!" — Placeholder
Get it from Amazon for $119.99+ (available in five colors).
12. A contemporary, sculptural lamp if you're looking for a unique piece that will draw your guests' eyes and have them saying, "OK, I like it, Picasso." 👨🏼‍🎨

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising review:"I've been on the hunt for a vanity tray, but they're all so pricey. Not going to lie, when I saw this I was like 'no way this is going to be that nice for that price.' I can let you know I happily was surprised! It's perfect! I want every color now!" — xxitsjess69

15. Some arched rattan bookends to shrink down that trendy style from your chairs, cabinets, and headboards for the book collection that's been sitting on your shelf collecting dust.

www.amazon.com
Promising review: "I'm obsessed with these bookends! I've been on the hunt for bookends that are both functional and aesthetically fit my home decor, and I've finally found it. They are so on trend with the whole rattan look, and quite substantial, too, so they'll hold up those heavier coffee table books and cookbooks!" — Jake
Get a set of two from Amazon for $39.99.
16. An ornate, arched mirror I'm sure you've seen similar versions of on an influencer's social media at least five times. Now you'll stop cropping the mirror out of your selfies and instead try to get as much of the detailing in them as possible.
www.amazon.com
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
Get it from Amazon for $89.62+ (available in five colors and 10 sizes).
17. A mushroom table lamp that comes with an LED bulb so you can set it up straight out of the box. And this bad boy is dimmable so you can have it turned up when you're studying and turn it down while you get ready for bed.
www.amazon.com
See an unboxing TikTok here, and another video turning on the lamp (the warm light is gorgeous).
Promising review: "I love mine. I look at it, and it just cheers me up. It goes really well with my white color scheme. It looks mostly white with some rainbow hints that dance across it as you move around the room. There are some bubbles, and I like them because I think the bubbles show that it is authentically hand-crafted. I'm very tempted to buy more, but I understand each one will look different — don't expect them to match each other." — C Gaudet
Get it from Amazon for $27.99+ (available in two styles).
18. A unique squiggle shelf designed to hold your stuff in a more fun and whimsical way than you ever thought possible.

20. An elegant moon cycle garland designed to look like the phases of the moon are floating on your wall.
Amazon, www.amazon.com
Promising review:"I was pretty nervous ordering this because there weren't a ton of reviews on the gold moon phase. When this arrived I thought I would have to assemble it but it was already put together and nicely packaged so the chains didn't tangle! The quality is so much better than I expected and you can see in my pictures the moons are pretty thick/heavy. They gave me gold matching screws to hang it but I just used a thumbtack instead. Love this!" — Holly Grote
Get it from Amazon for $13.99+ (available in two sizes and three colors).

Promising review:"LOVE LOVE LOVE. Was looking for an easy way to update my bedroom and make it feel more cozy without having to do a whole DIY/Pinterest-y project and damage my walls. Instead of using the hooks they provided, I just used clear thumbtacks to hang it. It is very lightweight and changes your room's vibe instantaneously. It was easy to install and was exactly what I expected. I love it and recommend it!" — Christian Sorrentino
Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in three colors and with or without string lights attached).
23. A chandelier so you can swap out your boring old lights with a unique one. This small change can really make a huge difference in the aesthetics of your home, without having to put forth a ton of effort (or money).
www.amazon.com
Promising review:"OMG I LOVE THIS CHANDELIER! I just keep staring at it and loving it even more! We put it in our entryway! Installation wasn't bad at all. My only complaint would be peeling those little clear stickers off each rod that said 'max 60 v' but I am not complaining. This light rocks! Oh yeah it's super bright, too, which we love!" — Carolyn
Get it from Amazon for $82.99+ (available in five light quantities and four finishes).
24. A 100% jute rug if you're still vibing with the coastal grandma aesthetic. The unique texture will add some much-needed dimension and the fact that it's low maintenance *and* super durable is the icing on the cake.
www.amazon.com
Promising review: "I absolutely love this rug! I wanted a farmhouse look and so I ordered this rug for my dining area. I am pleased that it is softer than I imagined it would be. I thought it would be coarse and itchy, but it's not! Love love love it! I got the 6-foot round rug, which will eventually sit under my new dining table. It has been down for two days now and the rug has almost completely relaxed too, which none of my other rugs have done so quickly." — Vicky Barboza
Get it from Amazon for $25.62+ (available in a variety of sizes, five shapes, and eight colors).
25. An acrylic tray table, which is a great option for anyone low on space. You can use it as a side table and then when your stomach starts to growl, you can move it, because who knows the last time you lived somewhere with an actual dining table. And if you're *really* low on space it, folds up compactly so you can store it away when you aren't using it.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising review: "I really love this item so much!! It's so beautiful and at a good price point for the material and quality. Came in less than a week, I recommend this 10/10. Loved that you didn't need to put together, it came already assembled." — Michael Hebner
Get it from Amazon for $102.58+ (available in seven styles).
