2. Blankets and Throws

This is your sign – you don’t need a whole new sofa; you just need some cute blankets and throws! These lifesavers are the cosiest accessories that can transform your home in the blink of an eye. Tired of that blanket with the withering fur and juice spillages? We don’t blame you, but you don’t have to exercise too much loyalty. Simply put it in the cupboard while your brand-new throws work their magic to revitalise the space! The idea of sitting under a blanket that dulls down that gorgeous sofa you splurged for is criminal and we just won’t stand for it. When you’re binge-watching that series that you’ve been saving, you deserve to snuggle up under a fresh feel of cotton or faux fur that complements those cosy pyjamas you bagged in the sale! Blankets are there to do more than keep your toes warm when it’s not quite chilly enough for the heating – they can give you a fresh chance of luxury, a new level of comfort, and an easy way to transform your living room! It’s the simplest way to keep your home looking stylish and feeling snug, no huge shopping splurges required – unless you love every single colour the blanket.

3. Dish Towels

They’re the stars of the kitchen, always there to dry up those forks and bowls you need, or to set down your hot dish on – they’re top tier! The most supportive and functional kitchen accessory, it’s no wonder they often get overlooked, but investing in a great set (without spending your whole paycheck) can transform your kitchen without you even realizing it! One day, your dish towel is just another piece of cloth, and the next it’s your favourite kitchen accessory because you got it at a great discount, and it matches your favourite Tupperware! From colours to funky patterns, to lush materials, there’s a whole world of kitchen luxury at a budget that you’ve yet to discover – but the wait is now over! Dishtowels are the perfect way to make kitchen duties feel like a privilege instead of a boring chore with boring dishtowels - it’s like a hack for finally getting the dishes done after letting them ”soak” for a week!

4. Bedside Lamps

5. Wall Art

Having bare walls in the home is heartbreaking when there’s a whole world of affordable options to choose from! You don’t have to settle for a boring calendar, or that singular polaroid you got from a party – you can push the boat out and explore with us. A blank canvas is perfect for being just that – blank. It gives you the chance to decorate with as many whimsical and funky options as you like without having to commit to a painted mural that’ll last longer than the house itself!

Wall art is a brilliant way to refresh the room too without having to add a fresh coat of paint or go to the trouble of visiting expensive galleries just for inspiration.

Tired of your space not having enough of your personality? Wall art! It’s the only solution to any home conundrum that’s ever existed!

6. Shower Curtains

Glass shower doors are completely overrated, especially when you can have a patterned shower curtain as the backdrop to all your soapy musical numbers! They’re an affordable way to give your bathroom some pizzazz while giving you something to admire as you brush your teeth – other than looking at your own reflection. A good shower curtain will give you privacy, a great shower curtain will do that and make your bathroom the coolest anyone has ever seen! If your guests are taking forever, they’re probably not snooping through your products, they’re just trying to figure out where you got such an amazing bathroom accessory! Shower curtains are the simplest and cheapest way to give your bathroom a fresh look without committing to a full remodel – you can put the quotes to rest finally. Don’t settle for boring and sterile, spruce it up with some fun colours and patterns for the most fashionable shower on the street – Ikea showrooms have got nothing on you!

7. Storage Baskets

Fret no more about everything getting lost in that miscellaneous drawer - storage baskets are here to save the day! There’s no better feeling than finding a home for everything from random scrunchies to that grater lid with no tub – if you had a basket earlier, you might still have that grater tub. They can also save you from an extra hour of spring cleaning! Rummaging through random corners in your home to lost objects can get tiring – we understand this all too well. With an affordable storage basket, you could get it down to just a quick skim over the array of objects that don’t technically have a space to go, then get back to relaxing! They’re the ultimate solutions to organization while offering an aesthetic appeal. And they’re not just limited to one room either – you can keep them in the playroom for toys, the bedroom for socks or make up, and even the loo for some rolls of toilet paper – the truly versatile gems of the home! Don’t limit yourself to creating nooks and crannies out of thin air for your belongings when you can have your home looking tidy and stylish with an array of storage baskets!

8. Scented Candles

The smell of fresh linen, citrus fruits, and new flowers are enough to see the world in a brighter way, but when you can’t be bothered to do all of that, just light a candle and let it do all the work! Scented candles were sent directly from Heaven to have your home feeling it’s best, smelling it’s most divine and looking so put together – and you don’t have to empty your wallet to indulge in them either. These accessories can take your space from dull to delicious with the flick of a match! Even if you’re lighting them for purposes such as masking the smell of burnt toast and funky milk, a few candles can reset your space and give your nostrils a breather. Add them to your living room for a welcoming and relaxing environment, or the bedroom for a peaceful mood before it’s lights out for the day. For something so affordable, a scented candle has the power to restore your faith in the world all while giving your home a brand-new ambience! And when you’re ready for a new vibe, just swap it out and let the candle work its magic!

You can keep pens, papers, your favourite paperclips and even a cheeky chocolate bar for when the workload gets too boring – they’re the ultimate versatile home accessory that we all need – even if you only have a few post-it-notes and a ruler!
