I am a contributor and former BuzzFeed Shopping writer extraordinaire, as well as a film & TV critic, which is why she loves scouring the interwebs to find the best pop culture knick-knacks to rep your fave fandom.

1. Alarge woven basket so you don't have to get up and head to the pantry to grab a throw blanket if you get chilly in the living room. Reviewers say the basket can hold a good number of blankets and pillows. 

Walmart

Promising review: "This basket looks just like it did in the listing. I am very happy with its appearance and its capacity. I am using it for storing extra blankets in my linen closet, and it looks great!" —Marilyn

Price: $25.09+ (available in five colors)

2. Or, a tiered blanket ladder where you can drape your go-to throw blankets and hang a few of your cardigans and scarves. It lies against the wall without causing damage and offers a nice shield for that big dent you accidentally put in the wall while you were trying to learn the latest TikTok dance. 

Walmart

Price: $28.99

3. An elegant embroidered curtain that brings a botanical yet romantic touch to your space. 

Walmart

Promising review: "The embroidered design really makes these curtains stand out. They were slightly more than I intended to spend but worth every penny. They compliment the room and provide an otherwise unexpected detail that ties the drapes, curtains, and rod into a cohesive window treatment package." —Dominic

Price: $14.98 (available in three sizes and three colors)

4. A C-shape coffee table, a compact coffee that can also turn sideways for a higher surface that can be used as an end table, a work table with room for a laptop, and it can slide under the couch to get close so you don't have to reach over to get your drink. 

Walmart

Promising review: "Love love love this item! Small New York apartment, no room, and this piece is a game-changer. It allows a coffee table in front of a small futon, and if you need to use it as a side table to support your laptop or a drink. Color works with my son’s decor, lightweight, and allowed him to have a nice space where nothing else worked." —Nicole

Price:$39.84

5. An outlet extender stick, an absolute must if you love to camp out in the living room for hours at a time. Outlets are rarely placed in convenient spaces, and this extender is ultra-thin, allowing you to use the one hiding behind your couch. It comes with two AC outlets, two USB-A ports, and one USB-C port. 

Walmart

Promising review: "Works great for hard-to-reach outlets behind furniture. The adjustable length and rotating head are very convenient, and the USB ports are a nice bonus. Easy to use and good quality. 👍" —YAO

Price: $35.99 (originally $169.99)

6. An oversize chenille chaise for a premier spot in your living room. Be warned, this seat is kryptonite for productivity. Sitting on it will shift your gears into ultra comfy mode. 

Walmart

Promising reviews: "Love the color selection, the fabric, and the sturdiness of it. No assembly is always a good thing, and it's super comfy and firm." —Dana

"Beautiful sofa! We took measurements, but it is much bigger than we thought it would be. Very happy with the quality and price." —Dywan

Price: $279.99 (originally $299.99+; available in five colors)

7. Or, double it up with a two-piece chaise set because you know you'll have to constantly kick your kids out of your spot. Now they can battle it out for themselves. You can push them together to make one large chaise sofa, and push the armrests down to turn it into a sofa bed. It also comes in a variety of vibrant colors to help brighten up the room. 

Walmart

Promising review: "I absolutely love this. Price was good — it's firm yet comfy. The back zipper is a bit tricky to get started after you use it flat. But it's not a big deal. I think this is a fantastic purchase." —Robert

Price: $329.99 (originally $799.99; available in 25 colors)

8. Some smart light bulbs — Full disclosure: when I first got my smart lights, I just wanted a way to turn them on and off without getting up. The reason was pure laziness. But after installing them and playing around with the different colors and light temps, I don't know how I can ever use a standard light again. You can change the color of the light from a whiter hue to a warmer one by moving closer to yellow. Or, you can set the color to blue, pink, purple, green, and any other color you can think of. You can dim it to just the right level, too. It can connect with your smart hub, or you can use the free app. 

Walmart

Sorry in advance, you'll probably want to replace all the lights in your house now. 

Promising review: "I had never owned a controllable lightbulb before—let alone one that changes colors and can be remotely controlled for color selection and on/off scheduling. These bulbs are incredibly easy to use and surprisingly fun. A funny moment really sold me on them. Last Christmas, my sister visited with my nephew, and we hadn’t told her we had replaced our lightbulbs. While she was sitting in the living room talking with my wife, I quietly started changing the lamp’s color from white to red, then to blue. Suddenly, she slid away from the lamp on the couch, glanced at me, and asked if I had just seen what happened—right as I switched the light back to its normal white glow. The look on her face was priceless. I was laughing too hard to explain, so my wife finally told her the lamp had a controllable bulb. She was genuinely impressed—and so am I. These bulbs are both practical and a lot of fun." —Kenneth

Price: $17.75 (originally $25.97)

9. A cool mist diffuser that'll gently put moisture in the air *and* calming aromas when paired with your favorite essential oil. 

Walmart

Promising review: "This diffuser fits in well aesthetically and is easy to use. The light options are nice, and it holds a nice amount of water and gives off a decent scent radius." —Amanda

Price: $28.96

10. An essential oil aromatherapy set, if you're unsure of which scent to add to your new diffuser, why not try them all? This set features the top 12 essential oil scents, so you can take a tour of the most famous ones without narrowing your choices. You'll get tea tree, lavender, sweet orange, eucalyptus, lemongrass, peppermint, lemon, bergamot, frankincense, rosemary, patchouli, and cinnamon oil.

Walmart

According to Johns Hopkins, you may want to avoid diffusing oils around larger groups and young children because of the side effects of different oils. You may also want to avoid using an oil diffuser around pets with breathing problems, according to the ASPCA.

Promising review: "I researched this item and found this company to have the best price, and I was pleasantly surprised when they arrived; each one has such a strong scent. This is a fragrant oil!" —Kristen

Price: $14.39 (originally $15.99)

11. A pair of nesting basket tables you can pull out when you need them and store away when you don't. These tables can be mixed and matched around your living room to serve as end tables *and* additional storage. Perhaps you need to use them for extra surfaces for an event. If you find you don't need them, just place one inside the other and store it away. 

Walmart

Promising review: "Loved them so much I ended up buying 3 sets! They are beautiful and very efficient for storage and to use as end tables. I would Definitely Recommend buying these!!!" —Linda

Price: $78+ (originally $98+; available in four colors)

12. A 65-inch Samsung 4K Smart TV so you can watch Interview with the Vampire, oh *clears throat* excuse me, I mean The Vampire Lestat, as it deserves to be seen: in the crispest, clearest picture possible. Those vamps make me swoon. 

Walmart

Promising reviews: "Amazing TV for this price, picture is amazing, very clear, people look real to life. So easy to install. Snap in stand, plug in cord, and step-by-step set up made easy by scanning with your phone." —Joseph

"Sharp, vibrant colors, theater-type picture is clear. Enjoy concert movies, sports, etc. You can control your settings. This is a great smart TV, sound quality is great, especially when you hook up your sound bar, and let's not forget free channels and subscriptions like Pluto, Tubi, Netflix, and more." —Debra

Price: $328

13. A Roku streaming bar, a 2-in-1 system that gives you a streaming device complete with all of your favorite apps, including free streaming networks that'll give you a 4K HDR picture *and* a sound bar to enhance your overall viewing experience by upgrading your audio. 

Walmart

Promising review: "I recently got the Roku Streamer SE 2-in-1, and I’m really happy with it. The installation was super easy and only took a few minutes to set up. Everything was straightforward, even if you’re not very tech-savvy. The sound quality is impressive — it's loud with really good bass, which makes watching movies and shows much more enjoyable. It definitely enhances the overall experience compared to standard TV speakers. Overall, this is a great product for the price. It’s simple to use, sounds great, and does exactly what it’s supposed to do. I would recommend it to anyone looking for an easy upgrade to their TV setup." —Jennifer

Price: $99

14. A couch caddy ideal for potatoes who love to spud it out on the couch during one of your much needed ~not moving from this spot~ weekends. You can use this caddy in different configurations depending on your couch activity. It could be a stand for your Kindle or iPad while reading or watching movie trailers on YouTube. Or, it could just house all your ~time to chill~ essentials: tumbler, remote, tablet or phone, beverage, tea mug, and more.

Walmart

Promising review: "Very plush and nicely comfortable. its nice to sit with on the couch or in bed with the laptop or a book with a drink. took a few mins to gain its shape out of the box, but I'm very happy with this compared to others I've had." —Juls

Price: $31.99+ (originally $39.99; available in five colors)

15. A couch arm tray you can use to turn the side of your couch into a table. This tray is unique with cutouts made to hold your cell phone and beverage. Reviewers love this tray and the beautiful wood it's made of. 

Walmart

Promising review: "We just bought a new couch with low square arms that is perfect for. I went and purchased another one to add to the other end of the couch. The cellphone holder portion of the tray really only holds a phone that doesn't have a case on it, and I don't really have a need for it. Regardless, I'd recommend this tray to anyone. Great quality acacia wood." —Tamah

Price: $23.99

16. A swivel accent chair, because you've been wondering what to do with that corner space in your living room. Lightbulb! 💡 Turn it into a reading nook. If you have kids, you can also use it as the ~calm-down chair~ for when they have big emotions and need a space to take a breather. Adults could also use a space like that!

Walmart

Promising reviews: "Easier to take the pieces out of the box versus moving the box yourself if you’re putting together by yourself. Assembly is easy and pretty quick. The chair itself is EXTREMELY comfortable! I ordered one at first to try it out for our sitting room, just ordered another today, and can’t wait for it to get here!" —Tatiana

"Love these chairs! Bought one to see if I like before buying another, and will def get another! So beautiful and comfortable! I got the cream color, and it matches perfectly with my light floors and rug in our new home! Cats approve also! :) Highly recommend, now I know what all the hype’s about! :)" —Anonymous

Price: $268+ (available in four colors)

17. A modern abstract area rug in case it isn't exactly practical or economical for you to replace the flooring in your home. This large rug will at least cover up most of the floor in your living room or bedroom and give you a variety of colors to pull from while switching up the aesthetics.

Walmart

Price: $15.99+ (available in five sizes and seven colors/styles)

18. A Dreo air purifier here to filter out those nasty airborne particles so you can enjoy vegging out on the weekend without suffering through sinus sorrows. It can keep your air clean for up to 1,600 square feet.

Walmart

Promising review: "We love this Dreo Hepa air purifier machine. It works wonderfully and is aesthetically pleasing. It is not too loud even on the highest speed. We have noticed a huge difference in our air quality. I was concerned it wouldn't work well due to its size. My older models were huge and bulky. This one is the perfect size. We purchased the white. Easy to clean and maintain." —Rita

Price: $72.97 (originally $125.99; available in two colors)

19. A three-wick candle which allows the candle to burn evenly. It comes in an assortment of scents, but this ~warm and welcome~ candle features a blend of warm glowing amber, vanilla sandalwood, vanilla orchid, marshmallow crème, creamy woods, vanilla, and white mocha, all the scents that make you feel as if you're being wafted by actual comfort. 

Walmart

Promising review: "I bought this candle, and it smells really nice, with a long-lasting smell. Kinda sweet smell in a good way!! My son walked into the living room, saying the candle smells really nice, and that’s coming from a man, lol. Smell refreshing." —Rosa

Price: $13.88 (available in a ton of scents)

20. A chic rolling bar cart aka the quickest way to add "I host parties" energy to your space. And yes, the parties for one that you host on the couch count! Obviously, if you're hosting friends and family, being able to load up this cart and wheel it into the next room is convenient. 

Walmart

Promising review: "Wow... Unreal quality for the price!! This is such a nice addition to my dining room. It looks great as a movable serving cart for a dinner party or a bar cart. Goes great with my way more expensive dining furniture. Perfect black color! Plus, the wheels seem safe to move across my real wood flooring. I would absolutely buy again!!" —Melissa

Price: $84.47 (originally $125; available in three colors)

21. A double-glass lamp for a retro addition to the room, adding trendy pizzazz to your space's decor. If you want to read a little of your book, you may not want to turn on the big overhead light. This will give you enough rosy ambient light to get through your next few chapters. 

Walmart

Promising review: "I love this small rechargeable lamp. It's beautiful at night. I put it on my mantel. Lovely shade of pink." —Sally

Price: $28.33

22. An immersive Govee TV backlight that not only looks super cool during a movie night, but also reduces the contrast between the bright TV screen and dark room, which helps to reduce eye strain. 

Walmart

Promising review: "Took a bit to get settings right... But wow is this GREAT!" —Scott

"Makes the TV-watching experience more immersive!" —Charity

Price: $69.99 (available in three sizes)

23. A faux plant for people who love plants, but don't have a green thumb. Enjoy this large plant that'll never die. One reviewer said the only problem was figuring out where to put it, since it looks so great in every room. 

Walmart

Promising review: "The tree looks great and is the perfect size for my space. I placed it in a larger planter, which makes it look much better than it did in the small planter it originally came with. Setup was simple — just fluff the branches to give it a fuller look. I definitely recommend it!" —Panasa

Price: $38.99+ (originally $59.99+; available in two heights)

24. A Crosley record player with aux and Bluetooth capabilities that you can display as decor in your living room and also as a speaker system for gatherings. Finally, you can play those vinyls you've recently started collecting. 

Walmart

Promising review: "I love it, the colors are pretty, and I love that it's Bluetooth because I can listen to my other music, which they don't have records of. It's loud just like a really nice speaker I grabbed mine while it was on sale, I'm super glad I bought it. Best purchase ever made!!" —Trinity 

Price: $58.44+ (originally $79.95; available in 13 colors)

25. A set of flameless candles, if you want to usher in those Hallmark Movie Channel romance vibes without fear of forgetting to put the candles out before you get too comfortable and fall asleep.

Walmart

Promising review: "This may sound silly, but I have nine of these lighting my living room, dining room, and kitchen. They are all on when I get up in the morning. They make the rooms look so pretty. They go off via the timer at eight. No smoke, no fussing with wax candles. Love them." —Donna

Price: $16.89+ (originally $34.99+; available in three colors)

26. A bouclé storage ottoman in case you're looking for a fun and homely option that looks like a cloud landed in the middle of your living room. It's a surprise piece of furniture. One moment, you've got your feet kicked up rewatching Heated Rivalry for the third (read: 20th) time. The next, *surprise,* you're pulling out a little blanket to throw over your feet when the AC is on too high. It's also great as a mini toy chest that still blends with your house vibes.

Walmart

Promising review: “Such a cute, trendy ottoman! Perfect for additional seating in my small college apartment! It also works great for storing our blankets! I will definitely be buying another color.” —Susie

Price: $49.94 (originally $58.97; available in five colors)

27. A knit throw blanket for VIP nappers who understand the importance of a good throw. This is the kind of blanket you have to keep tucked away so your roommates don't think they can use it whenever they want. It's only for elite nappers, and the way you nap — baby, you've earned it.

Walmart

Promising reviews: "This throw is really soft. It's big enough to cuddle with, but not as big as some others. The color is just as pictured. It's an awesome addition to our living room and it matches our furniture nicely. I'm thinking about getting more to give as gifts and maybe one more for us!" —CathyB

"I own 6 of these blankets. I was blown away by how cozy they are. I do find that the solid colors are softer than the striped ones. They have washed well. These make great gifts. Nicely sized. I don't know what more you could ask for in a blanket. Soft, cushiony, warm — it's literally like a hug. The green and caramel colors are beautiful neutrals. Try these blankets out, I think you'll be pleasantly surprised at the quality." —Nicole

Price: $24.96 (available in eight colors)

28. A removable peel-and-stick wallpaper, since you aren't allowed to paint the walls in your apartment. You can still get in on the redecorating fun without worrying about losing your deposit when you move out. The easiest way to imbue a little personality in your space is with a pre-designed wall. Reviewers note that it removes quite easily, too. 

Walmart

Promising reviews: "Love the colors, and it actually peels off rather easily! Now, since I didn't realize how high my ceiling was, I had to buy about six rolls! Definitely do your measurements! Still completely satisfied!" —Tank

"This wallpaper is gorgeous! I hung it by myself on walls with a 10-foot ceiling, angling at a 5-degree difference. 🤦🏻‍♀️ Yet it came out stunning!" —Kimberly

Price: $34.97 for a 30.75 sq. ft. roll (also available in double pack)

29. Alift-top coffee table — I know. Your eyes literally lit up when you saw this because you thought, "Now, why didn't I think of that?" Glad I could think of it for you. This 3-in-1 beauty serves as a traditional coffee table, extra storage for some of your many treasures *and* a work desk or TV tray when you want to eat while rewatching Buffy the Vampire Slayer. 

Walmart

Promising review: "Love this coffee table. Looks just like the picture and probably took about an hour to assemble. I would recommend putting a rug underneath it so it's easier to lift the table top up and place it back down." —Kayla

Price:$59.99+ (originally $119.99; available in five colors)

30. An arched bookcase that'll become a new home for all the books that have overflowed from your bedroom shelves to under your bed, and there are probably a few in your car, too. Oh, and there's some on the dining room table! They'll not only look so pretty filling out this bookcase, but they'll be nearby when you get the urge to dive back into the Dorothy Must Die series. 

Walmart

Promising review: "Really loved the look and feel of this bookshelf. It was easy to put together, and the material feels of good quality. I took it a step further and put contact paper on the back for a little pop of something extra." —Walmart Customer

Price: $182 (available in four colors)
