We’ve been ordering from Wayfair for years now, and let me tell you—it never disappoints. From high-end, luxury finds to budget-friendly gems (and everything in between), it’s a go-to for sourcing those perfect finishing touches that make a space feel complete.

But here’s the thing: with thousands of products to sift through, finding those actually good pieces—the ones that feel elevated, well-made, and designer-approved—can take some serious digging. Luckily, we’ve done the work for you.

Shopping Wayfair strategically means leaning into its selection and convenience. It has become a favorite within design circles for rugs, lighting, bedding, and even accent furniture. The sheer volume of products can be a lot to navigate, but that’s why it’s important to read reviews and look for user-uploaded images to get a real sense of the pieces. Also, don’t forget to do your homework and double-check the specifications to find high-quality materials like solid wood or marble.

Some other designer-loved brands to explore on Wayfair Professional include:

  • Arteriors
  • Loloi
  • Hudson Valley Lighting
  • Four Hands
  • Visual Comfort

And, because we can’t resist a great home find, we’re throwing in a few unexpected picks—because sometimes, Wayfair surprises us in the best way.

10 Pieces I’m Loving Right Now to Refresh Your Home for Spring

1. Textural Woven Lamp

A beautifully textured table lamp with a woven natural fiber base and shade, adding warmth and an organic feel to any space. Perfect for entry tables, bedside nightstands, or accent lighting in a cozy corner.

Okay, this textural lamp is gorgeous — what a great way to infuse texture other than with a rug! Lighting is everything in a space. It’s what sets the mood, softens a room, and makes it all feel intentional. I love this look for an organic feel, and it’s so great in size! The bonus, it’s 20% less than the other sites I have seen this!

If you ever feel like your space is looking flat or too “new,” add some texture. This lamp works perfectly in an entryway, bedroom, or even a home office to soften the look of a desk. It brings that organic, high-end feel that makes a space feel curated rather than cookie-cutter.

2. Industrial Distressed Mirror

A tall, antique-inspired metal-framed mirror with a distressed finish, bringing a touch of character and depth to any space. Ideal for entryways, bedrooms, or leaning against a wall in a living room.

Mirrors are one of my favorite tricks to open up a space and bounce light around. This one has an aged, slightly industrial feel that makes it look really high-end. I love how deep the frame is too.. something different than the slim profiles we are seeing everywhere.

If you have a smaller entryway, place this above a console table to create the illusion of more space. It would also be stunning above a dresser in a bedroom—just lean it against the wall for that effortlessly cool look. What I love about rectangular mirrors is that you can really hang them whichever way you desire. Wanting to spice things up? Try hanging it horizontally!

3. The Bubble Chandelier

A striking chandelier composed of layered glass orbs with a brass chain, creating a sculptural lighting moment. Adds a modern yet whimsical touch to dining rooms, entryways, or statement ceilings.

Don’t you love when lighting feels like art? This chandelier is one of those pieces that commands attention without feeling overwhelming. It’s a great dupe of this one we installed in a client’s dining room, but this version is a fraction of the cost. It’s modern but still soft, making it work in many different spaces. And while we are at it, remember, dupes are great for certain areas (high in a staircase where no one is getting up close and personal) or maybe a second home that doesn’t get used everyday; but as my grandfather always said “you get what you pay for”!  So if you are looking to save on your lighting this is a great option.

Where I’d Hang It: Over a dining table, obviously, but also imagine this in a bedroom—unexpected, but so luxurious. If you have tall ceilings, this would be stunning in an entryway, too.

4. Burl Wood DresserA classic that never goes out of style.

A sophisticated burl wood dresser with rich, swirling wood grain and brass hardware, making a statement in any space. Perfect as a media console, entryway piece, or chic storage in a bedroom.

Burl wood is having a moment, but honestly, I think it’s timeless. The grain and depth of this piece give it that rich, designer feel without being trendy.

Why I Love It: It’s such a solid investment piece! You could put this in a bedroom and enjoy it for years, or use it as a statement storage piece in a dining room or hallway. The details—like the molding at the top—make it feel even more special.

5. Ceramic Handled Pot

A large, textured ceramic pot with sculptural handles, perfect for styling with branches, greenery, or as a standalone piece. Works beautifully on a console table, kitchen island, or as a floor vase.

Sometimes, what’s missing in a space isn’t furniture—it’s the right styling pieces. This white aged pot has that old-world, collected feel that adds instant character.

This pot would be beautiful filled with oversized branches for an organic look, or even left empty on a console or coffee table. I love using pieces like this to bring in a bit of patina and history.

6. Jute Upholstered Bench

A versatile upholstered bench with a handwoven kilim-style fabric and slim iron legs, blending vintage charm with modern appeal. Works beautifully at the foot of a bed, in an entryway, or as extra seating.

A bench like this is so good because you can literally move it around your home as your needs change. Foot of the bed? Perfect. Entryway seating? Yes. Pulled up to a dining table for extra seating? Absolutely. The pattern is subtle but adds just enough interest. Try mixing a piece like this with cleaner, more modern furniture to create some juxtaposition of style.

7. Textural Shearling Tripod Chair

A cozy yet modern accent chair featuring a sculptural wooden frame with plush shearling upholstery. A perfect balance of rustic and contemporary design for living rooms or reading nooks.

I love this chair! I have been eyeing many tri-leg chairs, and this one is superb in detail. The shearling seat is to die for … and although this definitely screams mountain home, I could also see it in a home with a fun mix of curated items. Did I mention we have something on the horizon for defining your interior style? Stay tuned …

8. The Marble End Table

A luxurious solid marble side table with natural veining, offering a perfect blend of function and sculptural design. A stunning addition next to a sofa, bedside, or even as a plant stand.

A little marble table like this is one of those pieces that works in any home. The top is marble, but it’s more affordable than an all marble table with the base being made out of wood and veining detail to make it appear solid. It’s small, but packs a punch. The veining makes each one unique, and it’s just the right size to tuck into a corner without taking up much space. Place it next to a chair with a small lamp and a stack of books, or try using it as a nightstand for a more minimalist look.

9. Classic Nightstand

A timeless wooden nightstand featuring elegant dentil molding, tapered legs, and antique brass ring pulls. Ideal for traditional and transitional bedroom settings.

I always say that your nightstand should feel intentional. It’s the first thing you see in the morning and the last thing before bed, so it should be something you loveIt’s simple, but so very necessary for making your bedroom feel finished and high-end. For this option, add a sleek table lamp, a small dish for jewelry, and a couple of books. Maybe a little vase with fresh greenery. After all, keeping it simple makes it feel elevated. I love too that is a solid wood dresser (very important in the quality)

10. Glass Tulip VaseBecause fresh flowers deserve a good home.

A classic fluted glass vase with an elegant tulip shape, perfect for displaying fresh flowers, dried stems, or as a decorative standalone piece on a dining table or mantle.

A tall, delicate vase like this instantly makes any arrangement feel more polished. Even without flowers, it adds a little elegance to a space. In case you missed it, we just made an entire video on how to arrange grocery store flowers to make it look like a luxury bouquet. Check it out and save it for your next special occasion!

Before we sketch a floor plan or source furniture, we sit with the house and let it speak a little.
For the 6th Street Bungalow, this step was especially important. The house has its own personality, and the flatlay helps us study it from every angle.
It lets us play, make changes early, test combinations, and make sure each material has a reason for being there. Nothing is theoretical at this stage.
We want to feel the stone, the fabrics, the wood tones, the finishes, and see how they interact from room to room.
The flatlay becomes our anchor — a visual blueprint that keeps the design cohesive while giving us room to refine as we go. It’s a crucial part of our process and one of the most valuable tools for creating a home that feels intentional, personal, and true to the architecture.
If you want to get started on your home, our spots for Q1 of the new year are filling up. Visit our website (link in bio) to inquire.
My ins and outs this year!
Do you agree? Let me know if I missed any in the comments!
Hang in there for me on this one (I feel very passionately about this topic 😂). One of the things we care most about when designing homes is where the pieces come from. Vintage and antique sourcing isn’t just about finding something “different”... It’s about choosing pieces that already carry a story.
The truth is, the most memorable rooms aren’t built all at once or off a single shopping list. They’re layered over time. A chair with worn arms. A table that’s been repaired more than once. A piece you weren’t looking for, but couldn’t leave behind. Those are the things that give a home its soul.
When you bring vintage into a space, you’re investing in more than furniture. You’re investing in craftsmanship that’s hard to replicate today, materials that have already stood the test of time, and details modern manufacturing simply doesn’t prioritize anymore. And there’s something deeply satisfying about living with pieces that feel personal.
This is why we source the way we do. Not to fill a room, but to give it meaning. Collected doesn’t mean cluttered. It means intentional, patient, and a little emotional (in the best way).
A home should feel lived in, loved, and uniquely yours.
Ok here’s the truth- I have a lot of favorite whites- but this may be my new fave for cabinetry! 
Here’s the part no one tells you:
Most “bad” white cabinets aren’t bad colors… they’re bad context. White fails when it’s chosen in isolation. Paint chips are judged under fluorescent store lighting, held next to nothing, and decided before cabinets, counters, floors, or hardware are even finalized. Then that same white gets wrapped around an entire kitchen and suddenly feels gray at noon, yellow at night, or weirdly dull no matter how much light you have.
That’s why we chose Shoji White by Sherwin-Williams for our kitchen cabinets this time around.
Not because it’s trendy.
Not because it photographs well.
But because it behaves.
Shoji White has a soft warmth that doesn’t show up on a chip, but does show up when it’s next to real materials. It stays steady throughout the day, doesn’t compete with natural wood or stone, and doesn’t turn chalky once it’s covering full-height cabinetry. That consistency is what actually makes a white “safe” — not how popular it is.
Designer truth:
If a white only looks good at one time of day, it’s not a good cabinet white.
If it needs perfect lighting to work, it’s not a good cabinet white.
If paint decisions make you spiral, it’s not because you’re bad at this (it’s because white is reactive, and no one teaches you how to test it properly).
Our blog goes live today at 3:00pm PST, where I break down how to evaluate whites in your actual space and share a few other cabinet whites we consider truly “safe” — the ones we use repeatedly for clients because they hold up in real life, not just in photos.
Save this if you’re choosing cabinets soon.
