MY TOP 5 HOME DECOR PURCHASES OF 2023
As the year comes to a close, I’ve been thinking about which pieces I’ve enjoyed most in my home. When it came to new purchases, these five items came out on top.
They have all added personality to my home & made it feel more “us”. Even better, all five exceeded my expectations upon purchase (all were ordered online) & I feel they have held their quality and value with use so far.
Without further ado & in no particular order…
Emma’s Top 5 of 2023
1. Funny (but classy) Powder Room Art
At first glance it looks like any old portrait, but on the double-take it’s a whimsical nod to potty humor. My five-year-old thinks it’s hilarious & I don’t disagree.
2. White Accordion Peg Rack
I have many vintage peg racks I’ve thrifted, but I needed something more crisp for my entry. I love how this classic shape is elevated with the white finish—it adds so much texture to the wall without being overwhelming.
3. Acrylic Hardware Pulls
At just over $5 a piece, I was skeptical—but they feel heavy & were an instant upgrade in our powder room. They are a great way to tie in all the brushed nickel door handles in builder grade homes.
4. Green Velvet Pillow
Green is my favorite color, so I’m partial, BUT this pillow is so affordable for the quality—I love the invisible zipper closure! A velvet pillow is a great way to go with solid colors since it adds texture & depth.
5. Hammered Gold Lamp Base
Its round shape & metallic finish add so much drama to my entry. I love how it bounces light next to the mirror.
Even when it feels like not a lot changed in my home during this busy year, it’s fun to see what did! Home wasn’t built in a day. Here’s to 365 more days of slow-but-steady building!
