It's safe to say Amazon has it all, but shopping a vast assortment of goods can be overwhelming. Lucky for you, we've tapped some experts to narrow down your search just in time for today's start of Prime Day 2022 (officially going from July 12 to 13). House Beautiful's latest Next Wave class of interior designers is zeroing in on all the best Amazon home decor items everyone should have on their lists. In short, you'll want to add the expert-approved recommendations to your cart, including picks like Smeg appliances (yes, they're available on the site—and some are discounted, too), trendy wicker baskets, and much more. We guarantee you'll see the site differently thanks to these incredible home finds. Go ahead, browse and buy like a true pro!
To maintain a tidy home, Ariel Okin suggests snagging some elegant wicker baskets. Ordering a set is a simple way to stay organized and not have things all over the place.
Since you likely switch them every season, budget-friendly pillow inserts are the way to go. "[Inserts] are something I always need/use and who doesn't love Prime shipping," DC-based creative Byron Risdon shares.
LA local Rydhima Brar also gets pillow inserts from Amazon. On top of that, she leans on the online giant for accent pieces such as vases and coffee table books.
Rattan enthusiast Lilse McKenna reveals a wicker tray should be a priority, especially if you love eating lunch in bed or on the couch. She refers to it as her "portable desk lunch."
Francesca Grace believes function and style in the form of Smeg appliances can meet on Amazon. "Even though Smeg products are practical appliances and kitchen items, they serve as countertop decor with their retro-chic vibe and fun colors," she shares.
The best part? Some best-sellers like the coffee machine, kettle, milk frother, and more have been marked down for a limited time.
Boston designer Dane Austin takes a practical approach by stocking up on lightbulbs and candles.
You know what they say, a picture is worth a thousand words. But there's no reason it has to break the bank, so Michigan's Candace Griffin scores many of hers from Amazon.
For other must-haves that look expensive, but aren't, Purvi Padia recommends glassware. Goblets and cake stands are two of her most successful purchases.
"Not Kidding: extra-extra long shower curtain liners," maximalist Isabel Ladd says with excitement. "I LOVE to custom make shower curtains, and I hang them so close to the ceiling that they feel like actual curtains. And Amazon is the ONLY place I can find liners so long!"
Clara Jung is all about these wall sconces that come in a variety of colors to work with any aesthetic.
Hilary Matt will also never say no to a good coffee table book and Amazon's the place to go if you want them all for less.
