Iconic Tulip Table

Flower Marble Table 39"
Save: $899
The timeless tulip table is certainly worth a splurge, but if you can't quite justify the price tag, consider this similar sleek, white table at a fraction of the cost. The pedestal base is perfect for small spaces because it doesn't take up much room—physically or visually.
Abstract Canvas Art

Renouveau by Marc Archambault Painting Print on Canvas
Splurge: $789
Urban Poetry II by Erin Ashley Graphic Art on Canvas
Save: $85
Bold canvas wall art is an easy way to liven up any room. Look for a piece with movement and bright colors that complement, instead of match, the other colors in the room. This will create a strong and unexpected focal point.
""I'm all about the bright, bold colors. Love them as accents—throw blankets, art, pillows, and bedding.""

Textured Bar Cabinet

Corridor Bar with Wine Storage
Splurge: $2,424
Friedens Cubby Storage Cabinet
Save: $305
If you're looking for the convenience of a bar cart without the clutter, consider a bar cabinet. The dark tone of the splurge item creates depth while the chunkier save option brings more weight and attitude to a room.
Ombre Accent Pillow
Holiday Brights Throw Pillow
Save: $24
Ombre is all the rage, and these pillows take it to the next level with a hand-painted look. The splurge provides texture through the brush stroke marks which give it a hand-made look. Our save selection speaks to the same trend in a classic two-tone, but at almost half the price!
Architectural End Table
Euclid End Table
Save: $79
A statement-making end table in dual materials will bring some serious style to your living room or bedroom. Our splurge's base is substantial, but the negative space between the rods won't weigh it down. The save speaks to this same idea—it is both substantial and airy—making it a good choice if you favor bold but delicate design.

Cozy Neutral Throw

Tressa Cotton Throw Blanket
Save: $30
A throw is a must for the end of the bed or the arm of the sofa. A higher quality knit and material will stand the test of time, like our splurge, but if you like to change up your style often, go with a less expensive option that's just as cozy.
Sleek Sideboard
Olea Sideboard
Save: $797
This splurge is made of solid wood and finished with a clear coat that will protect the walnut wood from water rings and other damage. The save has a similar feel and style, with the added drama of the x-legs, but comes in a manufactured wood that makes it a much more reasonable price.
