I have a luxury taste on a tight budget – these are my favorite Amazon home decor pieces that look expensive (but really aren't)

Are you sleeping on Amazon's home decor? I was too. Here’s everything I'm adding to my cart this weekend

Over time, Amazon has become one of my go-to retailers for its affordable, eye-catching, and always-evolving home decor selection.

I know, I'm as surprised as you are. But from bedroom essentials to charming design accessories, Amazon hasn’t let me down yet. And as long as you know where to look, (and scour the reviews) finding home decor on the site has never been easier.

If you’re a bit intimidated by Amazon’s home decor selection, you’re not alone – with so many vendors and products to choose from, it’s easy to get lost. And because the online marketplace has a bit of everything (including the not-so-chic), it hasn’t always been my go-to for interior design refreshes.

So to help us all out, I've done a little deep-dive on your behalf and have spent the last 48 hours scrolling to curate the best edit of Amazon home decor pieces so good, you'll struggle to believe they're from Amazon.

The Best Amazon Home Decor

Amazon Decor: Lighting

I actually buy most of my lighting on Amazon lighting deal days like the Prime Day sale (which sadly has ended but some deals are still hanging about!) and I'm always on the lookout for unique sconces, table lamps, and ceiling lights that I can bring into my home on a budget.

Amazon Decor: Throw Pillows and Blankets

Throw blankets and pillows are some of the easiest items to swap out as the seasons change. I often look to Amazon for pillow inserts as they're just so cost-effective, but I wasn't aware they had such a great selection of pillow covers too. I'm impressed.

Amazon Decor: Decorative Accessories

It's hard work sourcing delightful and unique decor accessories for your home. From thrifting to shopping high street brands, it takes time. But luckily Amazon has some really great pieces, they'll all in one place, and you can get them super quick with Prime. I so prefer to shop this way.

Amazon Decor: Curtains

Fun fact: Amazon do some of the best window treatments and curtains. From light-filtering sheers to more sensible kitchen curtains and practical blinds. These are the best I've found on sale now.

Amazon Decor: Rugs

Having just laid new flooring downstairs in my home, I'm on the hunt for the very best rugs. I don't have time for anything that won't last long, so I've rounded up rugs that are durable and easily cleaned (including machine-washable) because we can all appreciate a low-maintenance purchase.
