10 Summer Decor Pieces From Walmart That'll Make Your Home Look Like HGTV Designed It—Starting at $15

Every season, I pace inside my house, evaluating the state of our interior design. I panic. “It’s officially going to be summer in less than a month , and our home looks like an outdated cave ,” I’ll tell my husband, hiding any evidence of spring pastels and (tasteful) Easter bunny decorations. He shrugs, and leaves me to fix the problem, because…husbands. In fact, with Memorial Day weekend come and gone, I’d argue it’s basically already summer and I should have had my house in order already.

Kate Middleton Reportedly Used This 'Beautiful' & 'Classy' $9 Nail Polish for Her Wedding

So, I have to think fast — and on a budget, because with a baby on the way, I can’t justify spending thousands of dollars flipping my home decor so it aligns with the season. One quick and easy solve? Walmart’s website . It has everything, and I’ve spotted summer decor pieces so elevated, cute, and functional, you’d never know everything (including furniture!!) is under $300. In fact, most of my wishlist is under $50.

If you’re in the same boat as me and are looking for ways to make your home feel more summer-y, here are 10 impressive options for all tastes and budgets. It really will look like HGTV came and redesigned your home.

Better Homes & Gardens, Architectural Natural Woven Pendant Light

One of the easiest ways to freshen and lighten (literally) up your place is with some new, well, lighting. This BHG LED pendant light features a very Hamptons-y rattan woven shade that’ll feel both modern and warm, wherever it goes (I can see it hanging in the living or dining room, though). Bonus: It’s meant to be used with an 800 lumen LED light bulb (offering 60W incandescent light), which is more eco-efficient than most.

Beautiful by Drew, Mod Round Coffee Table

If your living room feels drab and lifeless, you might just need a new coffee table. Coffee tables tend to tie the whole room together, and they’re super functional too. Lucky for all of us, Walmart has some really luxe-looking options for affordable prices, and I’m always so impressed by Drew Barrymore’s Beautiful line . The Mod Round Coffee Table (which comes in Rich Black and Warm Honey—I’d go with Warm Honey if you’re looking to “summer”-ify your space though) is circular, which is great for kids (babies and corners do not mix well). Even better, the drum-style base is ultra sturdy, so you don’t have to worry about it shifting around or toppling over. It’s minimalistic enough to go with any interior design style, but has a touch of retro whimsy that’ll make your living room feel special and thought-out.

Belleviee, Rattan Basket

One of the cheapest ways to make a space feel more spruced up for any new season is by adding a basket. It’s really that simple. Pick a spot, whether it’s at the foot of the bed, or in the entryway, and see how a basket will fill up the room and make the environment feel. I like this one with a lid , since you really can use it as storage without people actually seeing what’s inside (sneaky). A secret place for all those flip-flops? The dog’s toys? The options are endless — and for $15 a pop, I’m adding a couple of these to my cart for different rooms in the house. – REPLACE

Better Homes & Gardens Seaglass Wax Warmer

It’s too hot for candles, so instead, I take out wax warmers, which also provide an aesthetic lighting and fragrance (without the actual fire). You just plug it in, select a scented wax (I love lemon for summer), and let it fill your kitchen or living room with a warm, lovely vibrance. I love this wax warmer by Better Homes & Gardens because it looks like something I’d spot at fancy, coastal bed and breakfast.

Better Homes and Gardens, Bellamy Round Wicker Outdoor Egg Chair

I’ve always loved these egg chairs so much—my own has become a little oasis for me to read a book and sip my morning coffee, enjoying the morning mist or the evening breeze. You can easily have this inside, too, for that Hamptons vacation rental look. This handwoven set includes the chair, a cushion, back cushion, and two side pillows. Plus, it features rust-resistant coating, meaning it won’t easily get damaged outside in the elements.

Mainstays, Cotton Canvas Reverse to Yarn Dye Embroidered Ambreta Flower Pillow

Another quick way to tie a room together? New throw pillows. In the summer, I like to go more colorful, swapping out fall patterns and moody neutrals for bright florals. I love this flower pillow — especially since it’s reversible if I want to dial the color palette down a notch. Shoppers also say the pillow looks “very high end”: “I love the look of these pillows! They appear very high end. The embroidery is beautiful, but the reverse side is very neutral so you could also flip them. They are full and comfortable despite being mostly decorative.” And yes — pillow insert is included!

Better Homes & Gardens, Garden Green Translucent Ribbed Glass Tabletop Vase

Summer is *the* time to impulsively buy a bouquet of tulips at the store, and you’ll need a pretty new vase to store them in. I love the heirloom look of this green vase , which feels vintage, thanks to the olive green and ribbed glass. How pretty will a bouquet of white roses or sunflowers look in this?

Better Homes and Gardens, Artificial Pampas in White Rounded Ceramic Vase

For $15, transform your room into somewhere that feels like a trendy hotel lobby with this vase and pampas duo (which looks so much more expensive than it is). The artificial pampas is obviously no-maintenance, and the white-on-white brightens up the room instantly.

WeGuard, Eucalyptus Wreath

Not sure what to do with your sad front door in the summer? Easy: Add a summer wreath. This eucalyptus wreath features three different types of leaves to give it that natural-looking dimension, plus two types of white berries, and some sturdy “branches.”

Better Homes and Gardens, Striped Boucle Throw

I audibly gasped when I spotted this boucle throw on Walmart’s site because it looks so elite, and so wonderfully preppy and fun for summer. I think it’ll go perfectly draped over my big chair in the living room. The stripes make it look almost classic beach towel-esque, and the boucle gives it a luxe texture. Use it for function when you get back from the pool in the afternoon, and need something cozy to wrap yourself in.
