Saint George, Utah-based Kenna Sato Designs sells fun wall decor, prints, and gifts like mugs and phone cases.

Promising review: "Don’t know how I went this long without trying wall vinyls! These really do liven up boring white walls. These were relatively easy to put up even by myself and on slightly textured walls. Also great communication from the seller and getting back to questions quickly!" —Amy Cheung

Get it from Kenna Sato Designs on Etsy for $53.99 (available in four color combos, or you can customize with colors of your choosing).

Promising review: "I love this tree! It's really great quality. Artificial trees are typically very expensive, so I was afraid this one would look cheap because it is sold at such a great price, but I took a shot based on the great reviews, and I'm so glad I did. It does not come with a decorative pot, just the small black planter as shown in the picture, but I knew this at the time of purchase and had already planned to put it in a pot I already owned. I added some dried moss on the top of the filler items I put in the pot to hold the plant in place, and it looks great. I would definitely purchase again, and I just might buy another one for another area of my home." —SK

Get it from Amazon for $36.89+ (available in six sizes and multi-packs).

Promising review: "This couch is really beautiful — the color and just the way it looks. It was also the easiest thing to put together. I’m notoriously bad at assembling furniture, and it took me, alone, less than 20 minutes. It’s not super comfortable, but it’s comfortable enough." —Giules

Get it from AllModern for $1,140+ (available in 15 upholstery colors and two leg colors).

Promising review: "This bookcase was just perfect for our living room. It has a lot of capacity but is still sleek. It fits perfectly into a contemporary/midcentury modern/Japandi aesthetic. It was easy to assemble and made from high-quality materials. The only complaint I had was that I needed an offset screwdriver to screw it into the wall. I would also like to commend the rep for the excellent customer service I received. The original item I received has a small manufacturing defect: The thread in one of the holes of one shelf was missing so I couldn't attach the bolt. After I contacted them, they looked into it, and sent me a replacement bookcase free of charge." —Aniruddha

Get it from Amazon for $110.49+ (available in three sizes, six styles and 23 colors/finishes).

Promising review: "Freshly baked goods in these beauties make my kitchen look like a darling bespoke pastry shop, and that simple pleasure has lifted my spirits greatly. They are beautifully crafted from a glassmaker in Ohio, and right out of the image of a picture perfect retro kitchen. Love." —ginandjuniper

Get it from Food52 for $46+ (available in three sizes, with or without a glass dome, and in seven colors).

Reviewers say it's on the shorter side, so depending on your height, it might be better as a stationary piece rather than something you wheel around.

Promising review: "Six stars for sturdiness. This cart doesn't squeak or lean; it's very high-quality, and something I would expect to find at a Crate & Barrel." —Jason E Steckey

Get it from Amazon for $77.87+ (available in six finishes and two materials).

There is some assembly involved, and while reviewers say the instructions could be a bit clearer, a mix of the photos and intuition makes it totally doable. You've got this!

Promising review: "Beautiful piece! Fell in love with it since I saw it online, even more after it was completely assembled! It's not too difficult to put together; the tricky part for us was to get the hinges to align. Would definitely recommend! Love it!" —Bea

Get it from Amazon for $209.98 (available in six styles and a set of two).

PaPappa is a small business based in Tallinn, Estonia that sells whimsical clothing racks, rugs, and other home goods.

Get it from PaPappa on Etsy for $149.32+ (available in four different branch options and five hanging material options).

Promising review: "This rug is beautiful and brightens up my living room with a pop of color! It did have a bit of a smell for the first few days, but it faded quickly. Nothing overpowering at all! I absolutely love this rug, and it’s a great addition to our home! Also, my dog loves to eat grass and puked up grass on it the day after we got it — the stain cleaned out super easily!" —Amanda M. Pederson

Get it from Amazon for $16.41+ (available in 41 sizes/shapes and 12 designs).

Everything you need for assembly is included!

Promising review: "I was viewing this chair for weeks but was unsure of how sturdy it would be...well, I was wrong! I bought it to use as my desk chair in my work space at home. I wanted something chic to match my personality because I don’t really like rolling chairs (they lack that 'home' feel in my opinion, leave them at the office lol!). It took me about 15 minutes to put it together, and it sits perfectly with my desk. She’s comfy, strong (BBW approved lol), and the pink is absolutely beautiful!" —Ce'Asia T.

Get it from Amazon for $99+ (available in 14 designs).

Full disclosure: Reviews seem to be split on whether or not this piece is best put together alone or with at least one partner, but even the shoppers who said they did it alone fairly easily did say it would have been faster with one more person. Either way, you've got this!

Promising review (for solo building): "This is an excellent product!! It's real solid wood. It's sturdy. It's easy to put together. I put it together by myself, but it would be quicker with some help. I used a drill, and that made it much easier. I had no issues with it arriving damaged, and nothing was missing. They even give you extra screws. The only minor complaint I have is that some of the predrilled holes weren't drilled deep enough, but if you have a drill, it's an easy fix. 100% satisfied." —Jessica S

Promising review (for partnered building): "My sister and I put this together easily. The only issue was that the wooden dowels had to be hammered in on some of the holes, as they didn’t slide in as easy as others. Other than that, no complaints. Beautiful piece. I get lots of compliments." —Carson

Get it from Amazon for $176.44+ (available in four styles and two colors).

It includes 8-inch and 10-inch pans.

Get it from Amazon for $57.12+ (available in 12 colors, two styles and four sets).

Promising review: "Such a beautifully made item! It adds extra character to my bathroom and arrived quickly after purchasing!" —Megan

Get it from Sasak Market on Etsy for $19.41.

Promising review: "Love this light fixture! I have it in my kitchen. Really adds to the boho vibe. If you have a handyman around, I'm sure they could install it. My husband did it in about an hour or so. Beware: It is rather large and in charge, but beautiful! May not suit a small area. In addition, the light bulbs it comes with are not dimmable so you may want to purchase three of those if you need it to dim. Very happy with the purchase overall!" —Sierra

Get it from Amazon for $135.09+ (available in three colors).

303 Woods is a Shreveport, Louisiana-based, couple-owned small business that makes a variety of custom-built furnishings and home decor pieces.

Promising review: "We received our shelves last night, and I LOVE THEM! They are exactly as described and the perfect size for the wall in our hallway. They are also sent with nails for you to hang them. I cannot say enough great things about Joey. I was a little leery about hanging them because people posted so many different ways of arranging them, but I reached out to Joey, and he showed me the simplest way! He was so kind and responsive. Super friendly seller! I would absolutely purchase from him again and recommend his work!" —Kristine Tran

Get it from 303 Woods on Etsy for $115.

Promising review: "I love these chairs! They are super comfortable, sturdy, and were easy to put together. I have them indoors and use them daily. The cushions are removable and wash easily, and the chairs are quick and easy to wipe down. Would definitely recommend." —Gabe

My BuzzFeed Shopping colleague Sally Elshorafa says: "I own this vase! I prefer to buy vases on Amazon and pair different pieces together. This one is great because it doesn't have a round footprint, so it's easy to put on a bookshelf or against a wall. I totally recommend it!"

Promising review: "This vase is gorgeous, playful, and elegant. It gives of beautiful ethereal vibes. I'm very happy with it." —Suzanne Roth

Get it from Amazon for $35.88.

Get it from Amazon for $46.19+ (available in three sizes and three colors).

Promising review: "I hopped on the gold ornate mirror trend and spent a long time trying to find one within my budget. I was worried at first because there weren’t any reviews when I first bought this. It looked amazing online and was the perfect size so I went ahead and got it. I am THRILLED with this purchase!!! One of the best things I’ve gotten from Amazon. It’s beautiful and exactly how it looks in the pics. It came four-ish days faster than estimated. It’s perfect for my makeup desk. If there were different sizes of the same mirror, I would buy all of them." —McKinlee Mayer

Get it from Amazon for $94.71+ (available in four sizes and five finishes).

Promising review: "Beautiful, heavy duty, well made. I bought it to put next to a chair for books, a blanket, etc. but my cat loves it too! Makes a soft bed for her!" —charlotte silver

Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in six styles).

Promising review: "This shower curtain makes me happy every time I look at it. Great quality and beautiful print. Neutral and natural, just what I wanted. It's fabric, so you still need a liner, but that's how I prefer my shower curtains, a plastic liner inside and attractive fabric outside." —Jaxlo

Don't forget a lightbulb!

Get it from Urban Outfitters for $99.

Promising review: "These curtains are so pretty and luxurious. They’re heavy and well made.

San Diego-based small biz Knapp's Knots is pretty much any macrame lover's dream — in addition to their popular produce baskets, they make beautiful shelves, plant hangers, and wall decor.

Promising review: "I hated having a pile of fruit on my countertops. Bowls and baskets were always too big or small and taking up precious counter space. This is the perfect, cute and functional solution! I was able to screw in the hooks by hand — quick and easy installation." —Taylormschulte

Get it from Knapp's Knots on Etsy for $27.90+ (available in two sizes and 12 colors).

Promising review: "If you’re even considering doing it JUST DO IT!! I can’t even begin to tell you how easy this was and the end result is mind blowing! When people come over (we’re remodeling our newly purchased home built in 1865) their jaws drop. We put this in the sunroom/eat in kitchen area. We love it so much we’ll be doing it in the bar area of the dining room. When you actually get them on the ceiling and look at your finished product, you’d never guess it’s styrofoam. Caulking between the tiles was crucial to giving its overall look. That was the most difficult part. My advice (from watching hours of YouTube videos and doing research) find the center of the ceiling and work your way out. It took us two hours to do a fairly large space. We definitely overestimated how many it would take but I’m glad we had extra on hand in the case we messed one up. Also — make sure your blade is SHARP!" —Steven

Get a pack of eight for $23.54+ (also available in packs of 48 and 96).

Promising review: "Beautiful tapestry! Nice stitched edges, good quality print of the design. It was going to go elsewhere in the house but it selfishly ended up by my bed because it’s so pretty." —s.black

Get it from Amazon for $9.59+ (available in four sizes).

There's also a giraffe planter if you want it to have company!

Get it from Anthropologie for $38.

Promising review: "I bought this product as a gift and I am so happy with the quality. The plant hanger is well made and looks sturdy. It holds even smaller pots securely. I will be buying more for myself and for other gifts. Can't say enough good things about this product!" —Amazon Customer

Get it from Amazon for $8.79+ (also available as a set of two and in four colors).

Promising review: "I ordered the black background with white nubbys. Arrived timely and packaged well. It is beautiful and exactly as described. It is light weight and really not suitable for snuggling up and keeping warm, but I will be using it on my bed as accent decor only, so it is perfect!" —Baby It's Cold Outside

Get it from Amazon for $22.99+ (available in four colors).

Promising review: "These have to be the coolest things I have ever purchased. I have them in an empty wine bottle. I will be buying many more to cover the entire bottle in wax." —Bre
