Accessories for Under $100 That Make Your Home Look Expensive
Above: Fresh flowers and pretty books and a candle go a long way, as do small touches like custom shades for your lighting!
Even if your budget isn’t huge, your home can still look super high end by choosing some of the right accents. From small touches like monogrammed linens to bigger ones like art and pillows- here are some awesome finds that will look WAY more expensive than they are and add a touch of grandeur to your home.
Custom monogrammed cocktail napkins are so much nicer than coasters in my opinion.
I think these vintage bookends would add a lot of great visual texture to bookshelf.
I saw these pillows at my local OB and was FLOORED by how great they were and how much they looked like much more expensive fabrics I work with!
Original art will always make your home look more expensive– look for smaller works at antique shops or on sites like Etsy where this one came from!

I love the beachy look of these accessories, theres only one thing missing… handles! I think its so difficult to find designer looking cabinet handles or wardrobe handles.
this is such a great post. i think i’m going to get many of these pieces and give some for gifts. thanks Erin!
I love Southern Linens. They have some of the most classic monogrammed items. Their bedding is beautiful and I have given it to girls furnishing their dorm rooms, first apartments, and for many wedding gifts. I have never purchased a thing from Southern Linens that has not been perfect. https://Southern-Linens.com
That acrylic wine set is such a good idea for drinking outside. I need it!
Love it all!!!! Re-decorating and will use some of these ideas!

Erin,
These posts are so amazing! I have to be on a tight budget but love making my home look more sophisticated. Thank you for making design doable for those of us with tight wallets:)
LOVE this post! Please do more in the future!
The cushion in No. 12 is just gorgeous! I love all of these and they all work so well together xx
That leaf mirror looks so great! Thank you for sharing these accessories, love your choices!
Such a great post!!
Thanks you for these. I have a friend starting from scratch after a divorce after 25 yrs. These selections help so much. They are lifesavers. Keep them coming please!!!
2, 12, and 23 are my favorite items. Thanks for sharing this! I have to say that the title def drew me in. Awesome blog. Keep it up! Btw, we have four hotels in Manhattan. You should totally stop by one day! ✿
There is a site, ruggable.com, that keeps popping up on my instagram. I have no idea what kind of quality these rugs are, but they are apparently washable. Just a thought.
I have one of these rugs and just bought two more so I thought I’d chime in. (As background – I have a toddler and a beloved but stinky/shed-y/drooly aged english bulldog.) They aren’t our “forever” rugs but they will serve us well for the next couple of years. They have a velcro-like waterproof underlay with a very thin topper that can be washed in the washing machine. The quality is good – not plush but it gets the job done and has stood up to multiple launderings. The color and pattern choices are definitely limited and came much more muted than what I was expecting. My husband also dislikes that the underlay has a bit of a “crunchy” sound when it’s quiet. (Narrator: It was rarely quiet.) I obviously like them enough to buy a couple more and have recommended them to other families in the same boat. HTH!
Hi Erin – I love roundups like these; they are so useful and VERY much appreciated! I have another suggestion for you. We have a dog and two cats (in addition to a very messy young boy) and have gone through three living room rugs in the space of a few years. It seems like someone is always pooping, peeing, vomiting or otherwise wrecking the rugs and I have HAD IT. I also have a very small budget – what’s the saying, champagne taste on a beer budget? ;) Something like that. Anyway, I would love some options for living room rugs for people with animals (and messy kids)!!! Thank you for considering – keep up the good work!
yesssss!
ah LOVE this post
Ditto!
Thank you so much for this post. We’ve recently completed a major renovation and now need to add the finishing touches. This is SO helpful!
Another good place to look is at the used office furniture stores. I purchased several signed and numbered pictures for $35.00 and one was a Shoiohi Hasegawa (50/120 large 26 x 30). Due to the closing of an oil company the store had some really nice items.
