One of my favorite accessible and affordable spots to get furniture and decor is West Elm. I love the brand’s take on midcentury aesthetic and its partnerships with design names like Piece & Ward and Colin King; most recently, their youthful, quirky collab with Emma Chamberlain charmed me and helped keep West Elm’s offerings feeling fresh. Over the years, I’ve bought marble bowls, a table runner, a cocktail side table, pendant lights, a bathroom vanity, a medicine cabinet, and more from the retailer—that is to say, who better to recommend picks from West Elm’s Memorial Day Weekend sale than me? Starting now, you can get up to 60 percent off clearance pieces and up to 40 percent off on furniture and decor.
Shop West Elm’s Memorial Day Sale
I spent time looking through the sale to weed out the good from the mediocre and spotlight some hidden gems you won’t want to miss. Since the holiday sale is all about saving big, buying furniture right now is where you can take advantage of the best deals; however, if you’re all set in that arena (as I am myself), West Elm offers smaller accent pieces that are just as lovely, from portable table lamps to planters to these adorable bunny taper candle holders.
Trust me: West Elm’s Memorial Day sale is one you should carve out some time to shop this weekend. Check out some of my favorite discounted picks below.
Best Deal
I bought a similar drink table six years ago from West Elm, and I’m pleased to say it’s still holding up strong. This table comes in three different marble colors for the top, while the wood and metal combo keeps the piece feeling timeless. This item works well with any home’s aesthetic.
This is one of the brand’s best-selling sleeper sofas with a seat firmness of 3 (5 being the firmest). The included pull-out gel mattress has a two-layer construction made from high-density foam and gel-infused foam, designed to contour to your body and also wick away body heat, so you (or your guests this summer) will sleep peacefully. If you plan to host a lot and need to turn a room into an instant bedroom, this sleeper will be a godsend.
Small dining tables can be both functional and stylish, as this one proves. The 60-inch oak table is already sold out, leaving the 48-inch ready to be snatched up by a lucky shopper. This table can comfortably seat four and comes with white-glove delivery.
My friend has this sofa in a dusty pink color, and I was surprised by how spacious yet apartment-friendly it is. I don’t need to replace my couch just yet, but when I do, this one is a top contender. It can easily seat four people, and the cushions are firm but still comfortable thanks to the polyurethane foam cores.
I will buy anything designed by Colin King (I once found a floor lamp of his on Facebook Marketplace, and it was the highlight of my week). He has several pieces with West Elm, and luckily, these gorgeous outdoor planters are on sale. The ficonstone pot mimics the elegant and natural look of heavy stone or concrete planters, but is much easier to move as the largest planter only weighs eight pounds.
Most of us work from home at least once a week, so having a proper work setup is crucial. I love this desk because the top lifts up, allowing it to double as a standing desk. Underneath the top, there’s hidden storage to keep your chargers, journal, pens, and more organized and out of sight. If you have a bigger office space and can accommodate a larger standing desk, you may want to check out the options from Branch that are also on sale.
I bought this runner for my dining table in yellow (that color has since sold out) originally for $40, and now it’s on sale for only $10! I’ve machine-washed it hundreds of times at this point, and while the color has faded a little, the runner has not shrunk, warped, or ripped in the two years I have had it. Also, whatever oil stains land on it eventually come out in the wash—this runner is the best.
Keep the al fresco vibes going past sunset with a set of these portable outdoor table lamps. They emit a warm white light (2700K color temperature).
Sometimes, all your home needs is a runner to make the space suddenly feel renewed and cute again. This 2.5’ x 7’ resembles a vintage rug (without the luxury markup) and is made of recycled polyester and durable cotton. It also comes in other sizes, which are on sale.
Does your bedroom need some softness? If so, get this slipcovered bed in a soothing baby blue shade. The legs are removable if you want it to sit flush on the ground, and this bed is GREENGUARD Gold Certified, ensuring no harmful toxins will be emitted into your sleep sanctuary.
Incorporating flowers and greenery in front of your home or in your backyard is the quickest way to revitalize your outdoor area. To do this, you’ll also need some durable planters from West Elm’s sale. These beveled ficonstone planters in a neutral color will let your more colorful plants shine.
