12 Items Designers Are Buying From Amazon’s Big Spring Sale

As far as Justine Wolman is concerned, you can never have too many throw blankets. If you want to take your cozy factor up a couple of notches, she says this option from Blunique is a no-brainer. “It’s the kind of layer every space needs,” the Harrison, New York, designer explains. “Plush, inviting, and an easy way to add warmth, texture, and a lived-in feel.”

When it comes to finding a rug that’s beautiful and budget-friendly, Sophia deDomenico of Et Sal Interiors says it doesn’t get much better than Loloi’s offerings. “Almost every designer I know uses them,” she says. The decorator is a big fan of the Layla Collection, which is currently on sale. “It has the look of an expensive Persian, but at a price that makes it work if you're not at a stage in your life to invest in one,” deDomenico explains.

Kira Young of High Tide Design says Amazon finds are best paired alongside vintage pieces or something sourced from nature. “Decorating with highs and lows is realistic and shouldn’t be shameful but instead should always be celebrated—or bragged about,” the San Diego designer says. This cane-sleeved vase, she says, ticks off all the boxes. “It gives that coastal feel. Just add fresh ranunculus and just like that, the home feels elevated.”

New Jersey designer Jennifer Pacca’s planning to give her next dinner party a multi-sensory edge with this woven table runner. “It adds a fresh, effortless feel to any tablescape or buffet setup,” the designer says. “At just $8, it’s an easy yes—and I love these colors! Incorporate a vase of fresh flowers and your finest serveware, and you’ll be ready to host.”

April showers bring May flowers, so you should definitely pick up a vase that can elevate that supermarket bouquet. “I’m pretty sure no designer can ever have enough vessels,” explains Barrett Oswald, an interior designer in Westchester, New York. “This one has a slightly rustic feel with great texture, and it’s neutral enough to use in a lot of spaces.”

If you ask us, food just tastes better when presented in gorgeous serveware. Whether you use this stoneware bowl for fruit or as a catchall tray, it has Oswald’s seal of approval. “This bowl is perfect for accessorizing,” she says. “Simple pieces like this make a room feel layered.”

We don’t know who needs to hear this, but your storage doesn’t have to be boring. “Leather baskets are my go-to for storage and hiding clutter in a way that still looks nice,” Oswald says. “The texture also softens a room and adds a more intentional feel.” Grab a couple of these—especially while they’re on sale—and you have a chic spot to stow toys, books, or excess cables.

Never underestimate the power of mood lighting. If you’re looking for an option that’s elegant, illustrious, and on sale, Oswald recommends this fixture from Safavieh. “Table lamps are a great finishing touch,” she shares. “I like that the brass adds a little character without being overwhelming.” Grab it now while it’s 15% off.

“I tend to hoard good frames when I find them,” confesses Oswald. Not only will this pink agate option from Creative Co-Op be perfect for Mother’s Day, but it’ll turn any Kodak moment into something magical.

Sometimes, the best items to buy during a shopping event like Amazon’s Big Spring Sale are the most practical ones. That’s why Kitty Rheault, an interior designer in Los Angeles, recommends Bissell’s Little Green Mini cleaner. “The item I never knew I needed—and now refuse to live without,” she says. “Consider it the unsung hero of interior design: Quietly blasting away the evidence while the space stays polished, pristine, and very much ‘just styled.’”
