As a shopping editor and lover ofinterior design, few things excite me more than the prospect of redecorating my space.

I moved into a new apartment six months ago, and now that I have all the essentials, I’ve spent countless hours browsing the home decor sections atAmazonandNordstromforpretty rugs, lamps, vanity chairs,makeup mirrors, and more to make my space feel more special.

These items don’t just fit my very picky aesthetic, though — most are totally functional, too. Thiscandle warmer lampwill let me enjoy my favoriteholiday fragranceswithout worrying I forgot to blow out the flame before leaving the house. Thisvelvet ottomandoubles as storage, making it a huge win for my tiny New York City apartment.

I narrowed my list down to the 15 items I’ll be buying and asking for this holiday season (hint, hint, family). Everything is under $100 at Amazon and Nordstrom, and many make great gifts for loved ones, too.

Shop Home Decor Finds Under $100

Marycele Candle Warmer Lamp

Amazon

$34$29 at Amazon

I’m officially bidding adieu to the days of burned-out wicks and saying hello to an ambiance that’ll last from my morning cuppa through Zoom meetings and dinner at home withGilmore Girls. The Marycele candle warmer lamp doesn’t just melt candles — it transforms them into long-lasting mood lighting with a chic, modern touch.

Topeakmark Boucle Accent Chair

$88$80 at Amazon

I have a feeling the Topeakmark boucle vanity chair is about to become my new favorite place to sit at home. Its sleek shape has an elevated look, though the boucle fabric gives off ultimate cozy vibes. I plan on using this at my desk, but I love the look of it so much that I’m thinking of getting a second one to use as an accent chair in my living room, too.

Gvnkvn Lighted Makeup Mirror, $48 with coupon

$60$48 at Amazon

Mirror, mirror, on the wall, who’s got the best lighting of them all? Me, now that I’ve got this in my cart. As a bit of a perfectionist, I need to do my makeup in front of a mirror that offers cold, natural, and warm lighting options along with a magnification function to nail the perfect cat eye. This mirror offers all of that along with a gilded finish that matches my apartment’s look.
