Making your living room feel unique, cozy, and like it’s a space that you can both host in and unwind and relax is the BEST feeling. It can take a little bit of time to get there, though!
These unique living room accessories will help add personality to your living room and make you proud to show it off. But honestly, you might even be tempted to keep it to yourself and curl up to get cozy.
This is a list of the cutest unique living room accessories that will make your living room your favorite spot in your house. From trays, cute decor items, throws, and more, these little accessories will make your living room feel homey.
This post is all about unique living room accessories. These are 17 home decor items that will make your living room feel like it’s your own.
1. Wicker tray by Amber Lewis for Anthropologie
Buy now on Anthropologie
Trays are so useful to have in the living room to use to help you stay organized. Whether you put your TV remotes in there, some coasters, a candle, or anything else, they’re so nice to have around.
And this tray is so beautiful! It has a gorgeous natural look and has beautiful details that are timeless. It is a little bit pricier than another tray on this list from Target, but I think it’s so worth it.
2. Throw blanket by Junaglow
Buy now on Jungalow
Having throw blankets in your living room is such a must. It makes your space so much cozier. And it’s so much fun to find a throw blanket that is equally comfy as it is pretty.
And what can I say? I adore this color combination! This throw blanket comes in other pretty earth tones, but this one was my favorite.
3. Ceramic bowl planter by Justina Blakeney
Buy now on Jungalow
Getting a cute planter is like getting new workout clothes. Even if you suck at being a plant mom, the new planter will help inspire you to give it another try (and maybe get it right this time).
These cutie planters come in so many pretty different colors, and I want one of each! You know you can trust Justina Blakeney to have some of the best planters. They’re cute and look beautiful in well designed spaces.
Importantly (especially for those of us lacking a green thumb, like myself), they also have the proper drainage so that you can actually have a real shot at keeping your plants alive and healthy.
4. Marble Stone Bookends by Threshold and Studio McGee
Buy now on Target
Having decor on your shelves alongside books is always a must. These bookends are so elegant and pretty. I love idea of the stone marble against colorful book spines, it would be such a nice contrast.
Mixing in different natural materials like stone, wood, and clay, adds so much texture and so many visual layers to your living room. Book ends are a great way to sneak in some functional decor.
5. Maxine Taper Candle Holder
Buy now on Anthropologie
Whether or not you actually put candles in them, candle holders add a beautiful, vertical accent to your living room. These are so pretty and have a nice, round, organic shape to them. The blue colors are gorgeous together, too.
Having staggered vertical home decor items like this help create beauty in places that you may not expect, like on a window sill, on your coffee table, or even on a side table by the couch.
6. Rectangular Earthenware Tray with Cut-Out Skin Rattan Weaving Handle in Heathered Green
Buy now on Target
This tray is a really beautiful color, and the little details make it feel extra special. A tray like this is perfect to put on top of a coffee table or ottoman so that you can easily organize things in your living room.
Target has really affordable trays, and this is one of my favorites. It looks really high end without being overpriced. It also can be nice to have something that’s a simple flat surface without a ton of texture because something like a glass of water can stay upright on it easily.
7. A Sunday Painter Layla Vase
Buy now on Anthropologie
Color adds so much joy and energy to your home, and these vases are full of that. They remind me of spring and summer in the type of way that makes you want to leave them out year round.
They have such a painterly quality to them, and they’re a little bit abstract which feels modern and fresh. And they look good with or without flowers in them, which is a winning quality.
8. Ceramic/Glass Photo Frame with Bubble Glaze Finish by Opalhouseโข designed with Jungalowโข
Buy now on Target
Having framed photos around your house is so important. It makes it feel like home to see your cherished memories and loved ones and moments filling your space.
You’ll love the unique yet subtle quality that this frame brings into your space with its arched top and terracotta color. Placing it on a little side table in your living room will instantly brighten your space and make it feel homier.
9. Medium Faux Wood Table Lamp Brown by Thresholdโข designed with Studio McGee
Buy now on Target
Oooo this little lamp is such a delight! You’ll fall in love with the spherical base and angular lamp shade together โ they’re a match made in home decor heaven.
This little lamp will elevate any living room, and it can fit into a cute little nook and make a design moment out of nothing. I seriously love it! You don’t find lamps this cute every day.
10. Flora Taper Candle Holder
Buy now on Anthropologie
The best thing ever with home decor is when you find something that has a purpose but also looks like literal ART on its own. And yes, that is what we have found ourselves with here. These candle holders are so pretty!
They’re perfect to add to a shelf, put on your coffee table, or save for special occasions. Although, I am a huge supporter of making every day a special occasion.
11. Amabella Vase
Buy now on Anthropologie
These vases are so cute. They’re an adorable mixture of chunky and delicate, if that makes sense. Again, you can use these for flowers and leave them out on their own, because they’re cute like that.
12. Jasmine & Lily Reed Diffuser
Buy now on Amazon
A reed diffuser is a great way to add a multi-sensory element to your living room. It looks pretty and makes your house smell amazing. Literally what could be better.
13. Large Organic Clay Bowl
Buy now on Jungalow
Take a moment and enjoy how rotund and adorable the little feet on this bowl are. *SO CUTE!* I love the blue color with the gray feet, and am generally obsessed with bowls that have little feet like this. As something that is both functional and decorative and adorable, this bowl has my full endorsement.
14. Woven Augustine Pillow
Buy now on Anthropologie
If you’re someone who adores color, this pillow is for you. It has beautiful layers of color and it’s a pretty lumbar shape. Don’t you think it will look right at home in your living room? So lovely.
15. Checkerboard picture frame
Buy now on Amazon
The checkerboard trend has been everywhere in design lately, and there’s something so classic yet current about the black and white checkers look. I haven’t seen a picture frame with this pattern before, and if you’re anything like me, you will fall in love with it.
It adds a little burst of pattern in a small and subtle way that makes your space feel unique and well thought out. It’s miraculous how much picture frames add to a space because they’re so small and inexpensive, yet they are so mighty. You’ll love how unique this is, and it’s hard to argue with such an affordable price.
16. Ceramic Table Lamp with Rattan Shade White by Thresholdโข designed with Studio McGee
Buy now on Target
Another lamp, and from the same Studio McGee collection at Target, no less. They know their lamps over there! This rattan shade with the ceramic base is full of contrast and the warm color of the rattan will make your space feel unique and cozy. The vibes will simply be immaculate.
17. Set of colorful glass vases
Buy now on Amazon
Little colorful glass vases deserve a soft spot in your heart, because they’re so cute. You can place a little flower bud in them, or just put one or two on a bookshelf. Colorful glass adds more than just decor to your living room, they filter light and create dancing shadows and highlights across the room. It’s so beautiful.
These glasses come in other colors too, so if the amber glass isn’t quite for you, there are a bunch of other options. Green and blue glass also catch light in a really lovely way.
