Plus if you hang them ~high and wide~ — like they did in the photo here — you can instantly make any windows look bigger. After putting these in posts for years, I bought them for my baby's nursery and can confirm that they look and just as high-end as they do in this pic! 

Promising reviews: "These curtains are absolutely beautiful and a fantastic product for the price. The feeling and weight of the curtains far surpassed my expectations. I purchased them in dark slate for my son's nursery to help block out light for nap time and I absolutely adore them. They cut down on heat entering the room and light. I would 100% purchase them again." —Tate J

"These look great — we have the beige ones and they hung really nicely. Added bonus, we had an unexpected heat wave the week after buying this and they kept our house considerably cooler!!" —Sasha

Get them on Amazon for $25.99+ per 84" panel (available in five lengths and up to 12 colors).

Each tile is 12" X 12", and it's waterproof and heat-resistant! You'll also need a utility knife to cut the pieces as needed.

Promising review: "I put this up in my laundry room. It was easy to work with and install. Made a huge difference for very little money. We are very pleased and would recommend." —Amazon Customer

Get them from Amazon for $27.99+ for 10 sheets (available in 15 colors). 

You just have to add the photos! (Oh, and multiple reviewers say they're definitely light enough to hang with Command Picture Hanging Strips, if that's more your style.)

Promising review: "Great quality. I'm in love with these frames! Pictures do not do them justice. I'm so glad I found these. They're so affordable and elegant looking that I purchased another set to separate in threes and place around the house. They all came in great shape, and the installation was simple. The template it comes with is super helpful. If you're debating, purchase them. You won't be disappointed." —Jennifer Zuniga

Get the pictured pack of 9 frames from Amazon for $87.31 (available in two sizes and eight colors). 

It comes with a base cover and three cushion covers, all of them stretchy. The base cover features an elastic strap that stretches underneath the sofa to help keep all of the fabric taut and fitted in place!

Promising review: "I have never been so excited about a slipcover. Total transformation of our couch and love seat. I was worried about it not working on our leather couch, but it stays on really well due to the straps and the separate cushion covers. LOVE." —Brian/Liz

Get it from Amazon for $47.49+ (available in 5 sizes and 20 colors; if you want to cover a chair, loveseat, ottoman, or other piece of furniture, check out the brand's full line of slipcovers, or a BuzzFeed Shopping roundup of the best slipcovers on Amazon).

Protip: If you can't find shams with the exact same measurements as your throw pillows, go for covers an inch or two smaller for an ~overstuffed~ look. I have these exact shams in moss green in my living room and they're great quality and look amazing! It was an instant face lift for my living room. If you don't have pillows already, you can buy two fillers for $16.04. 

Promising review: "Love! Soft and durable! I saw these in a BuzzFeed list and I ordered them. I’m so happy I did. I had some throw pillows that were about to get trashed or donated. They were off white and had some little kid stains I couldn’t get out. These velvet covers are so soft and elevate my decor. I’m so glad to be able to revamp and reuse something I already have. Would buy again! My cousin ended up buying them in the beige color and they look great too. They are thick and the zipper feels secure. I washed them on delicate and air dried before use." —lily

Get this set of two 16"x16" covers from Amazon for $15.99+ (available in up to 43 colors and 10 sizes). 

Of course, depending on your decor preferences, Amazon has dozens of under-$25 throw pillow sets available (cottagecore floral, faux leather, fuzzy plush, geometric patterns, embroidered birds and plants...) — I bet you can find something you'd love!

Promising review: "If you're looking for instant curb appeal with little effort, you need to get these. These haven't moved in large rain storms or excessive wind and hopefully won't rust out like the more expensive drilled sets like my neighbors have since there are no exposed screws or hardware." —SG

(They won't rust out at all because they're made of a super durable UV- and weather-resistant plastic.)

Get the set on Amazon for $33.82+ (available in two styles).

Above, the tray unites all the little objects into a single visual element, and the stack of books + accessory also work as a single piece. So, you have three main items on this table that then, within themselves (mostly) follow the rule of threes. From the now-defunct blog The School of Decorating.

Promising review: "This product is absolutely stunning! Such good quality for the price. Very tall and sturdy. Also easy to assemble!" —Brittany ☆

Promising review: "These are so much fun! We ordered the small size, which fits standard hardback books (approximately five to seven hardbacks in my experience). They're a great way to add some extra storage to our very small home, and we've placed them in our hallway so people ask us about them all the time. I'd highly recommend!" —LaBuenaVidaMere

Get the three on Amazon for $38+ (available in small and large sizes).

This is a change that takes only a few minutes: unscrew the old, and screw on the new! (Unless you decide paint them to match your trim or your wall color, but even then it's a quick project: paint in the evening, let 'em dry overnight, then install.)

Promising review: "I purchased these light switch covers as a quick and easy way to update the appearance of my house. I’m glad I did! They are beautiful and look a lot nicer than the plain covers sold in large box stores or the covers used in new construction. They could work for many different design styles as well. They have a matte/semi-matte appearance and thus scuff easier than other outlet covers; however Mr. Clean Magic Erasers remove the marks if they are bothersome." —Angela Marie

Get these from Amazon for $7.76 (also available for other types and sizes of switch panels and for plugs — see their full selection on Amazon for that and other styles and colors).

Promising review: "I love love love this chair! It was very easy to assemble. The color is stunning and it's comfortable! All this for a great price!" —Lisa Smith

Get it from Amazon for $79.99+ (available in 6 colors).

Promising review: "Ordered six of these chairs for my dining room. I thought assembly would be difficult, but it was quite easy and goes quickly once you get the hang of it. I’m impressed with the sturdiness, comfort and design." —DC

Get them from Amazon for $212.39+ (available in eight colors and sets of two or four).

This review gives detailed instructions to help everything come out perfectly, and most people will also need: a drop cloth, a regular paint brush, a small roller brush, touch-up brushes, and some painter's tape for the edges and windows. Oh, and you do have to clean your door quickly before you get started!

Promising review: "Excellent product. Very easy to use. We were able to paint our front door with two coats and be finished all in one day. Product is a very thick consistency that causes it not to drip, run, splatter. Very little prep work and clean up. You can apply a second coat within a few hours and it was completely dry by 4 p.m. and we were able to close the door. And by 9pm, I was able to hang my wreath. Yay!" —Jay

Get it from Amazon for $38.95+ (available in 15 colors). 

Promising review: "Folex is hands-down one of the best cleaning products I’ve ever used. Every single person should own a bottle — seriously. It works wonders on couch and furniture stains. I first heard about it from a Restoration Hardware employee who told me they use it on their floor samples to keep them looking fresh. That was all the convincing I needed, and now I’m on at least my tenth bottle. It’s easy to use, incredibly effective, and has saved more upholstery than I can count." —B.M.C.

Get it from Amazon for $7.99+ (available in five sizes).

Promising review: "I purchased these to use as shampoo, conditioner, and body wash dispensers. I wanted our shower to look like a spa! They are great quality and many people I know have copied our idea, so they are a hit! Very high quality, the plunger part is always the most important part. These are metal and not plastic, something which seems to be hard to find when looking for dispensers." —Rebecca Morea

According to reviewers, make sure you remove the bulbs first and hang just the wire, to prevent breaking the bulbs. Once the wire's secure, then screw the bulbs back in! I did this in a yard once and it worked really well. 

Each bulb socket has a clip on it to make for easy hanging/securing. And they're waterproof, so you don't have to worry about rain. Cable ties or screw-in cup hooks would work well for installation! You can get them with either a white or black cord and sockets, so you know they'll match your house or decor. 

Promising review: "I had a set of these on my patio for a good 3–4 years. They were totally exposed to the elements. Sun, heat, rain, etc. They only recently failed. At this price, I had no issue with replacing them with a new set. It cost less than buying a new fuse and a few replacement bulbs. And now I have plenty of extra bulbs from the old set." —CA Buyer

Get them from Amazon for $14.39+ (available in 6 lengths and either black or white cord).

And if you live in an apartment, anyone below you will appreciate how they can't hear every step you take anymore! 

Promising review: "I have had this rug for a couple of years now and it has lasted! Quality purchase for such a great price! Can’t buy a rug anywhere else for this price. Do need to lay the rug out and put weight on it to get wrinkles out when you first get it. But takes only a day or two. Colors have lasted and still looks good!" —Jayme

Get it from Amazon for $31.99+ (available in 9 color combos, 4 shapes, and a variety of sizes).

Of course, there are SO many styles of decanters out there if this one's too basic for your taste — a few on Amazon include a monogram set with glasses, a mismatched set of three decanters, one that looks like an iconic perfume bottle, or one in the shape of a globe with a glass ship inside. There's even one that looks like a PlayStation controller. 

Promising review: "A great way to buy whiskey in bulk and serve with a decanter. The decanter fancies up our cabinet, where it blends in with its liquor buddies that have more premium whiskey bottles. It already paid for its self as I buy big bottles on sale and it sits next to the premium whisky bottle without standing out." —Art in SLC

Promising review: "For the price, these work great for a little decor piece. I used a hair straightener to straighten out, but will probably steam them to fix them even more. I got the medium size, small size were quite small so I exchanged. Overall I’m happy with them." —Spencer

Get this set of two on Amazon for $14.99+ (available in three sizes).

Promising reviews: "Good low cost option. Used this to conceal an outdoor AC unit, and protect from sprinklers. It does that. I did feel the need to add a little more stability to it with a u-channel fence post, however that's subjective. It's not something I'd want at the front of my house but for the back/side it looks fine. It's reasonably priced and does exactly what I wanted it to." —Chris

Get four panels from Amazon for $114.99+ (available in brown or white), or a version that's completely solid (instead of panels) for $160.02.

Several reviewers said it really helps to use a wallpaper smoothing tool — you can get one for $4.99! And pair it with a few bottles of black touch-up paint for $6.79 to give the fridge's inner frame and handles a makeover.

Promising review: "It bothered me that my dishwasher was black and didn't match my stainless steel stove and fridge, so I decided to give this a try. I'm glad I did! It legit looks like my dishwasher is stainless steel now. It's not big enough to cover the whole thing at once so there is a seam, but I put the seam on the lower half of the dishwasher and it's not very noticeable at all. If I didn't know to look for it, I probably wouldn't see it. Just make sure you wash whatever you're applying it to so that it sticks well, and go slowly when applying so you don't get bubbles." —Sharon

Get an 15"x78" roll from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in four sizes).

Promising Review: "I live in an apartment. The sink is about 35-years-old and has become badly stained and scratched from neglect and indifferent care. This has made a noticeable difference. This sink will never look brand new again, but your product removed, I would say, about 80% of the stains, without any extraordinary effort, and put a really polished look on the sink. It is gleaming and actually looks very clean for the first time since I have lived here. I am betting that with continued and consistent use of Therapy cleaner, it will continue to improve. Thank you for a most excellent product." —David Brennan

Get it from Amazon for $19.95+ (available in two sizes).

Oh, and you can totally use the rest of your regular liquid soap refill with these! Just combine one part liquid soap with five parts water. FYI they're plastic, not glass, but that just makes them more durable if they're knocked over. If you prefer glass, check these out for $15.99. 

Promising review: "I’ve been using soap foam dispensers for years and have tried many different ones. Some break easy, some are really hard to push down, some are hard to get the right ratio of soap to water, etc. WELL NOT WITH THIS! I couldn’t believe how easy it was to push down and dispense the soap! And it makes it super rich and lathers really well!" —Kaya

A pack of two dispensers are on Amazon for $9.99 (available in four colors and three sizes). 

While restoring a finish isn't quite the same as completely refinishing a piece, it take much less time and can still make furniture (and floors, front doors, and kitchen cabinets) look magically new again.

Promising review: "Very easy to get results. I applied to eight dining room chairs which had scrapes, scuffs and white paint marks. An amazing transformation so quickly. I finished eight chairs in 90 minutes without rushing. I bought two pints but only one was necessary. I used a cotton cloth for most of the application but also used 0000 steel wool for the scrapes and paint removal." —Grumpy Neanderthal

Get it from Amazon for $11.99+ (9 wood finish colors available); many reviewers follow up with the same brand's wood polish and conditioner (they're meant to be used together!), which you can get for $8.96 from Amazon.

Country Chic Paint is a family-owned small biz that makes this great paint! 

Promising review: "I've bought a total of four of these things. I went on a kick of painting all of my generic black/dark brown Ikea furniture. I used this on both the shiny/smooth furniture and the wood furniture, and it worked well on both of them. It definitely worked better on the wood furniture, though. The paint was unexpectedly very easy to use, and the color came out a LOT prettier than expected! It was easy to clean off my hands and brushes, and the paint came right off my clothes in the wash as well. Overall, I'm very very pleased with this paint and will purchase more if I need any crafty paint in the future." —Anna

It's on Amazon for $16.95+ (available in four sizes and 50+ colors). 

They work on walls, furniture, wood, doors and many more surfaces! And you can cut them up to use whichever parts work best for your project.

If you like the idea of furniture transfers but these aren't quite up your alley, the Redesign with Prima store page has many, many options!

Promising review: "These transfers literally become a part of the surface they're applied to. They're easy to apply and stay on without ever peeling off. Have had them on a nightstand for about 2 years and they still look perfect." —CraftCrumbs

Get them from Amazon: the design used on the dresser for $43.99 or the design used on the lampshade for $14.99.

You just rub it right into your leather. It can even help minimize the look of cat scratches, depending on how bad they are. Note that it's very important to test to see if it will work with your particular leather, because it's for absorbent leather only — you simply put a drop of water on your leather and see if it soaks in. If it does, this product works! (Here's a video; skip to 0:42.)

Promising review: "Can I give it TEN stars? My hubby was ready to get rid of the set. It's SUCH a comfortable set, and well-built... scale was just right for our new home... I couldn't let that happen! I had cleaned the chair with a tiny amount of mild dish soap and water previous to the stain's arrival. I threw on some latex gloves, dipped my fingers into the gel, and started massaging it into the leather. Results were immediate and impressive!! AMAZING!!" —Muysson

Get a jar from Amazon for $24.95+ (16 colors available).

Promising review: "It's perfect for pool areas! It wasn't what I expected but i actually like it better. If I had to describe it...I'd describe very soft straws (like drinking straws) woven into a carpet. It doesn't stay wet and it doesn't get hot so it is perfect for our pool patio. It is light weight though, so if you don't have something set on it or put it away during a storm it will blow around." —Andrea Malcolm

Get it from Amazon for $34.49+ (available in five sizes and 18 designs; or see all the available designs on the Fab Habitat store page). 

Promising review: "Purchased this for a nursery (space theme!) and found the color and print to be very true to the photos. Absolutely love it! It's also extremely soft (good for a baby to play on) and seems to be very well made. Extremely pleased with this rug!" —Kat D.

It's on Amazon for $27.72+ (four colors available in many sizes, or see all the rug designs available on the Safavieh store page).

Promising review: "My kitchen window is on the sidewalk near the community mailboxes. Lots of people walking by. I loathe mini blinds, which collect dust and grease. Especially since the stove is next to the window. Curtains are better, but still collect cooking smells and grease particles. I installed this in about ten minutes. It lets in light, but hides me from nosy people." —Gayle Smith

Get a 23"x78" roll on Amazon for $8.49+ (available in 4 colors and 14 roll sizes).

No electrician required, thanks to those plugs. This set is designed so you can easily add or take off however many lights you need, depending on how long your counter is. 

Use a Command Strip to put the remote control's included bracket on the wall or side of the fridge (or wherever makes sense to you), and you can use it like a light switch to easily turn them on and off! 

Promising review: "These puck lights are awesome and look great in my kitchen!  They're plenty bright. I did warm white and it's perfect. I ran most wiring through the cabinets since I did below and above the cabinets, but it wasn't difficult. I did have to run one wire across the top of the backsplash tile, but it's not noticeable now that I secured it better. Highly recommend!" —cls

Get it from Amazon for $49.99 (available in warm white or cool white). 

Then to complete the disguise, paint the cable cover the same color as your wall! 

Promising review: "This product worked great for cleaning up my mess of cables/power cords going to my wall mounted TV. The plastic is sturdy, yet easily cut to proper length, I did however, use a "T" type of expandable wall anchor because I was attaching it to exterior stucco wall. The channels are large enough to accommodate numerous cords, and the covers snap firmly in place." —TheoLogic1

Get the kit (which has six cable covers that total 150", self-adhesive tape, and 12 connector pieces) on Amazon for $19

If you're a renter, you can definitely change them back before you move. All it takes is a screwdriver and like, half an hour of work! You'll be amazed at the difference such little effort can make.

There are tons of really cute options out there, so you're bound to find some that fit your style. Anthropologie has tons of glam options, Amazon has good basics, including the adjustable-length pulls I mentioned already, and the two pictured above are from small businesses on Etsy!

Get the cherry-shaped ceramic knobs pictured right from Kolos Ceramics on Etsy for $13 (available in lots of other shapes like pasta, blueberries, tomatoes, and pickles on their store page).

The kit comes with two templates you can use, one for drilling for handles and other for drilling for knobs. Check out the review photos, it's full of people who have successfully done this themselves!

Promising review: "Great tool for beginners! Wow! I was going to pay someone to add handles to our cabinets in our home office. When I saw this with the drill bit already included, I knew I could do it and save money. I was right. Great price and plastic is sturdy and easy to use." —Angelia Brown

Reviewers use these for all sorts of things: flashcards, makeup, wash cloths, journals, dryer sheets, medication, glasses, slipper socks, toilet paper....they're great clutter containers!

Promising review: "Finding small lidded boxes that looked cute but had structure was a challenge, and these work really well. My only 'complaint' is that the little twine ties on the backs are flimsy and some broke after a few days — but an easy fix is to use black zip-ties and no one will see the difference. Overall, very cute (makes our bathroom feel like a spa!!) and we get tons of compliments! Great solution." —Kristina

Get them from Amazon for $16.40 each (also available as a three-basket nesting set for $32.89). Or get a similar four-pack nesting set from Amazon for $40.99.

Promising review: "These worked wonderfully to give some privacy to my back yard without blocking out everything. I have had them up for about a year now, and they hold up well to weather conditions (snow, rain, freeze, heat). Color has lasted so far. No issues with hanging them. I used green zip ties purchased separately. Easy to cut and adjust the size. Recommended." —Don't Be Hateful

A 94"x39" roll's on Amazon for $34.99+ (available in three sizes).

Basically, the spines of the books books are attached but have with all the pages and covers cut out of 'em, except the two covers on the very ends. You can choose the color scheme you want and how many inches long you need it to be, and CovoGoods, a Salt Lake City, Utah-based small business, will make it for you!

Promising review: "Wonderful!! We spent the past month remodeling our living room, but we didn't account for how AWFUL the cable boxes and modem were going to look on our beautiful new shelves. Saw this, and had to have it! Covogoods not only communicated quickly with me, but were EXTREMELY accommodating in my requests. Turned out exactly how I envisioned it, and dimensions were spot on! No more ugly cable boxes and wires!" —Lindsey Martinez

Get a router-sized one from Covogoods on Etsy for $29.40+ or from Amazon for $39 (available in your choice of several color options). 

As with all over-door cabinet organizers, don't forget to measure before you buy! If this particular design doesn't work for you, find lots more options: smaller, larger, and for the countertop!

Promising review: "My drawers were getting cluttered. I looked at what my hairdresser used and something like this came to mind for me. I ordered it and I love it! It keeps everything organized and compact. It was very easy to install and also easy to switch around if it doesn’t work in one area." —WI Badgers

Promising review: "Love this little shoe storage system. Fits six or more pairs of shoes, and with 6" depth it fits perfectly in tight spaces or behind doors. Really helped organize and clean up my front landing space of my townhouse. Came packaged fully assembled and included hardware." —Lauren "Lala" Peacock

It's not removable, so if you're a renter, ask your landlord first. Read about how this bathroom was done on Simply Beautiful By Angela. She suggests using an angle-finder tool to help you figure out how to cut corners and other wonky sections, which is brilliant. 

And get a pack of 36 vinyl wood-look tiles from Amazon for $89.99+ (available in nine finishes).  

The reviewer pictured above said it only took them half a day to do the entire ensuite bath! 

Promising review: "Super easy, amazing transformation! They were really easy to put down, but if I were to do it again I would probably add a brush-on adhesive just to give them some extra sticking power. A few of them started to pop up at the corners, but I was able to stick them back down with all-purpose glue. Also recommend a pair of heavy duty scissors, which I found easier than a utility knife for cutting the edge pieces. Great purchase, especially for the price!" —Tami

Get a pack of 10 of these tiles from Amazon for $15.74 (available in 2 colors). The brand also makes 14 other colors/styles — see them all on on the Floorpops Store Page.

One reviewer says it doesn't need primer to stick to shiny metal, and it holds up!

Because it's spray paint, this will be easiest for items you can take off the wall and take outside to paint. If you're determined to do a light fixture or faucet, you'll want to be sure to mask everything else well with masking tape and newspaper or cardboard, like this reviewer shows.

Promising review: "Amazing Product! This adheres very well to just about anything you want to paint. Covers evenly and looks great. I used it to spray bathroom fixtures, and I was blown away by how well it adhered and how great it looked afterwards. This product saved me from buying new hardware." —Sabine M.

Get a six-pack on Amazon for $51.18 (available in 22 colors).

One can will be more than enough for you to give your fireplace a couple of coats and to maybe even touch up your outdoor grill. Designed to protect metal surfaces up to 1,200 degrees F (although you shouldn't put it on a surface directly exposed to flames), it dries to the touch in 30 minutes and is completely dry within two hours. 

As always, when dealing with spray paint, you'll definitely need masking tape along with a bunch of newspaper to block off all the surfaces you *don't* want spray paint permanently marking!!

Promising review: "Good buy! Used to update my outdated fireplace glass and wood holder. Prepped by washing, steel wool and then painted 3 coats. Came out amazing and saved me hundreds. It’s been 3 months and we have had many fires since painting and the paint has held up." —Wendy

Get a three-pack from Amazon for $35.94 (available in black, silver, or copper finishes. Available in white that's resistant up to 1,000 degrees F at another listing for $7.98.)

Reviewers have figured out all kinds of ways to attach these and if you own your home, gluing or nailing them on is the way to go! But I'm a renter, and I think that Command picture-hanging strips would be a super easy way to hang them without having to worry about damage. Oh, and they come in a bunch of different sizes and dimensions, so you'll be able to find one that works for your project. 

Promising review: "I am a 66-year-old grandma and installed it myself. Super easy to install. Used White Lightning to adhere the panels. These panels gave a high-end look to an otherwise drab wall and peninsula. So classic and affordable and it will never go out of style! I would HIGHLY recommend this product for a custom designed look. Use your imagination!" —JM

Get single panels from Amazon for $12.79+ on Amazon (available in 23 sizes). Or for something a little more whimsical, try a scalloped version! 

And if you rent, you can take the tiles apart to take with you when you move!

Because they're teak, the color will fade over time; to extend their life or help restore them after fading, rub them down with teak oil. Or you could go ahead and seal them with a coat of polyurethane.

Promising review: "Great quality! Bought these in 2016, and with one application of teak oil per year, they still look great in 2023. They have been subjected to full weather for seven years and still look amazing. Lightly power wash them once a year to remove grime and re-oil. Takes about 30 minutes." —Z

Get 10 square feet from Amazon for $77.48.

This particular stencil is from Stencil Revolution, a small business on Etsy! They have over 100 wall stencil designs, so you'll probably find something you love. 

Promising review: "Love the pattern and high-quality material! If you're new to wall stenciling, like I was, I suggest practicing on paper or a hidden wall (like a closet) and definitely use spray adhesive to keep the stencil as flush as possible." —Lisa

Get it from Stencil Revolution on Etsy for $32.99. 

Reviewers for some of these styles also mention using a wallpaper smoothing tool to make things easier.

Promising review (for the crane paper): "This was my first experience with peel and stick wallpaper. I was not disappointed with this wallpaper at all. It is a little on the thin side but it never ripped, bubbles were easy to work out, and the adhesive seems to be doing well, thus far. Overall, I think it is beautiful!" —jonathan wilson

This is another category where Amazon has so many options:

- Get the removable cranes for $23.99+/roll (and available in five colors); they're by Tempaper, which has what feels like hundreds of design options on their Amazon store page.

- Get the white and gold geometric pattern is $5.99+/roll (and available in three sizes) from a brand called MeluMer, which has about 14 other designs on their Amazon store page.

- Get other options from Spoonflower, another well-known brand of removable wallpaper brand with some pattern options on their Amazon store page; theirs is made with a linen-textured fabric instead of paper. Depending on the design and size, it's anywhere from $12–$66/roll.

Yep, you'll still want a wallpaper smoothing tool for this!

Promising review (for the marble paper): "Couldn’t say enough about how easy it was to apply this product. I thought it might be like regular contact paper, but it is so much superior. It’s much heavier quality, and very forgiving. Even if it sticks to itself, or you need to lift and reapply, it kept its shape and condition. I did 24 feet of kitchen countertop with six rolls. Very happy with this and would purchase it again." —stonegatefarm

Get them from Amazon: the geometric wallpaper's $5.99+/roll (and available in three sizes) and the marble-look contact paper is $11.67+/roll.

For more design and color options check out the Amazon store pages for MeluMer (which makes the geometric paper) and D-C-Fix (which makes the marble paper), as well as for the peel-and-stick wallpaper brands Tempaper and Spoonflower.

Pick up some screw-in ceiling hooks to make it super easy!

Promising review: "I love this lamp. It is very cute and I love the fact that it has a diffuser so you don't see the bulb through the holes. You can remove the diffuser if you like that look. I love the cord it comes with, it is plenty long enough and has a great rotary dial dimmer that can be used with any bulb. The value for this product is excellent and I would buy it again." —Liam

Get this rattan lamp from Amazon for $38.99.

Of course, Amazon carries dozens of different styles of plug-in pendants, too, from metal cages to domed shades to crystal chandeliers to wooden beads.

And it comes with all the hardware you need to hang them! 

Promising review: "Just had our house painted and these were the perfect final touch." —Kelly Plunkey

BuzzFeed Shopping is service journalism first: our writers and editors spend all day shopping so you don’t have to, vetting products, fact-checking brand claims, and surfacing what actually helps in real life. We center readers over revenue, recommend products with authenticity (using real experiences, not ad-speak), and reflect our diverse audience, inclusive of a variety of price points, people, and needs. We cut through fake deals, favor useful info over glossy fluff, and recommend both budget and splurge options with context so you can decide what’s right for you — and still have a little fun along the way.
