You can always count on Amazon to have what you need for the home. But let's face it — shopping there is a bit like the Wild West. There's so much stock, so much to look at, and it can be hard to know when to splurge and what to avoid. It's a great solution, but you have to have the patience to wade through the sea of products.
I'm a problem-solver at my core, though, so I spoke to a few interior designers to learn about the Amazon decor pieces they'll be shopping for themselves (some of them are even part of the Amazon sale section). If you want to shop like an expert, now is your chance.
Below, you'll find a selection of home decor, furniture, and appliances, all of which were sourced and endorsed by the four fabulous designers I spoke with. Some of these picks are on sale, some are full-price; but either way, shop assured you're getting a great bang for your buck (is there anything better than two-day shipping?), as well as a buy design experts themselves are loving.
Grey Joyner, Grey Joyner Interiors
Grey Joyner is the founder of Grey Joyner Interiors, a design firm based in Wilson, North Carolina. "My motto, both in design and in life is to be you not like anyone else but to find and be your true self! I feel like design can be a growing experience for a client to reach in and pull out their true artistic side, and to help them step out of their comfort zones a little. When this happens, a true piece of art shines through not only for the room but for them internally, and that is a true work of art!"
Price: $89.97
'I love these for multiple reasons. You can never have enough storage opens and baskets to me are the best. Not only are they appealing to look at but they bring another texture to your room. These baskets give you multiple options — you can take the top off and use it as a tray, as well as tuck away some items you don't want people to see.'
Price: $35.84, Was: $89
Size: 3' x 5'
'Who doesn't love a jute rug? Not only are they extremely affordable but this one says it’s easy to clean and doesn't shed! I love using a jute rug to add texture, especially in a room that seems stark or needs softening. It’s also fun to layer a jute rug with a cowhide. This one also comes in multiple colors!'
Price: $110.55, Was: $169.99
'Classic planters are the perfect accent to any backyard, deck, or porch. The size of these [is] great as they are light so you can keep moving them around as your flowers bloom. And these are self-watering, so very efficient.'
Price: $29.99
'Not only is a glass carafe and cup a lovely gift, it's the perfect accent on a nightstand and can even act as a vase. I like that this one is dishwasher-safe and comes in multiple colors. They are the perfect size and can add a pop of color to a room.'
Price: $29.99
Size: 20" x 20"
'Scallops on pillows are a timeless decorative touch to any room. Always a great way to add color and a bit of whimsy. I like these pillows [because] you get two [per order] and the price point encourages you to purchase a few and change them out.'
Mackenzie Collier, Mackenzie Collier Interiors
Mackenzie is an award-winning entrepreneur, interior designer and business coach. As the founder of Mackenzie Collier Interiors, her unique approach to design and business sets her apart from other business owners as she leads with her core values of community building, positivity, and integrity.
Price: $120.99, Was: $199
Size: King
'I've purchased this set twice now, and I absolutely love it. Unlike most linen sets, it arrives soft enough to use right out of the package and continues to get even softer with each wash. Living in Arizona, where temperatures often soar above 100 degrees, I appreciate how well it breathes during the summer and how cozy it keeps me in the winter.'
'The texture of the linen is wonderful, and the color options, especially the Olive Green and Natural, are simply beautiful. Plus, the fabric is durable, standing up to frequent washes and my golden retriever’s snuggles. This Amazon bedding is comparable to high-end brands like Brooklinen's sheets, Restoration Hardware, and Pottery Barn, making it an excellent addition to any home.'
Price: $137.54
"I love using little side tables all over my home because they are easy to pick up and move wherever you need them. They make a great spot to set your coffee or remote and add visual interest to any space. This particular table, handcrafted by skilled Vietnamese artisans, features a stunning mosaic design with premium capiz shell inlay, adding an artistic accent that I adore."
"The combination of natural wood and a shimmering finish complements various decor styles, including coastal decor, bohemian, and modern. I'm excited to order this table for my new home, as it will add the little touch of contrast I need in front of my army green sofa. If you’re looking to add a unique and sophisticated piece to your decor, this table is a perfect choice."
Price: $29.89, Was: $44.89
'I've purchased these blankets many times, and they have become a staple in our home. I use them as extra layers on my kids' beds for those nights when a quilt is too warm. They are incredibly soft and get even softer with each wash.'
'The beautiful, soft colors they come in — like light tan, mustard, navy, and light gray — add a rich texture and visual interest to beds, chairs, and sofas. These blankets are not only aesthetically pleasing but also practical, as they are lightweight and easy to pack for travel. If you're looking for a versatile, all-season throw blanket, this one is a fantastic choice.'

'I love this ottoman! It's versatile and stylish, perfect as a footstool, extra seating, or even a side table. The hidden storage is great for keeping throws and magazines out of sight, maintaining a clean look. Its modern silhouette integrates well into various styles, and the high-quality faux leather with a black wood base adds a chic, sophisticated touch.'
Price: $169.99
'I really like this coffee table, [it's] the perfect blend of modern and timeless. The clean lines and metallic legs would look incredible in any contemporary space, and the two tiers are a game-changer for storage. Plus, the walnut and glass combo is just so chic; it adds warmth without feeling heavy. Definitely a statement piece that your guests will be raving about.'

'I'm eyeing these funky outdoor folding chairs for either my new cottages, the #TownieCottages, or maybe even for my new outdoor patio at the house we just moved into in December!'
Price: $199.99
Was: $229.99
'I'm also thinking about getting this Ninja Creami for protein smoothies (I'm a big yogi!) and ice cream! Perfect for summertime treats.'
