Living Room Updates, Major Sales and What I’m Buying This Month

featured 84671

Our living room is still evolving after we took Karl to the beach house and bought a new sofa. One new piece makes me want to rearrange everything, so I’m excited to share a few sneak peeks and a roundup of current weekend home sales. Expect budget-friendly finds like $60 side tables, $119 living room chairs, and kitchen stools under $100.

We recently added two cane-back living room chairs that are on sale for 30% off (about $119 each), plus an extra 15% with the code TURKEY. They sit at a comfortable height—similar to our sofa—and become even cozier with a lumbar pillow. I also stained the legs with Minwax Provincial to better match our kitchen stools.

All of World Market’s furniture is 40% off with code FURNSALE, which brings our kitchen stools to under $100 each. We’ve had them for over a year with no problems, and I’m considering buying more for the duplex once the kitchens are ready.

Our new sofa has been a great fit: durable, kid- and pet-friendly, and comfortable. It’s currently discounted—$400 off in “steel” and 50% off in “truffle” (a warm charcoal). Crate & Barrel rarely runs discounts like this, which is why I’ve been so enthusiastic about the deal.

In the photo you can see the back of the $119 cane chairs and the side tables we found for $62 each—both eligible for an extra 15% off with code TURKEY. The side tables are roomy enough for lamps (ours are from HomeGoods). On the mantel is my favorite faux ginkgo branch; I picked up two and it’s currently on clearance for $6.97—an easy way to add a cheerful accent to a room.

That small marble-topped table between the cane chairs is timeless and versatile. It’s on sale for $89.99, plus an extra 15% off with TURKEY—an excellent value for a marble accent table. We liked it so much we bought a second one for the beach house.

The capiz chandelier in our foyer is part of Serena & Lily’s 25% off sale with code BESTDAY, bringing it down by about $75. That same code also reduces the price of the 8 x 10 rug we use at the beach house by almost $200—it’s a soft outdoor rug that feels like a chenille sweater and can be hosed off for easy care. The blue throw blanket on the bed is 20% off.

For the beach house bedroom, a striped duvet set is 40% off (queen is $48) and 400-thread-count sheets are also 40% off—an exceptional value at about $29.99 for a queen set. Several bedside and wall decor pieces are discounted, including photography prints around the bed for about $62.

The aqua kilim rug in our daughter’s room is on final sale at West Elm—save $180 on the 8 x 10—and it has held up well for years. Serena & Lily also has tassel towels and woven baskets marked down, with an extra 25% off using BESTDAY; I’m tempted by the fringe towels and striped basket for the beach house.

West Elm has some standout deals too, like a 50% off metal task lamp for $29.99 and a metallic throw pillow for $14.99. Pottery Barn’s lighting sale includes a Moravian star pendant and capiz flush mount at notable discounts. Wayfair’s well-reviewed neutral rug is 10% off, making an 8 x 10 just $145—an appealing price for a large rug. Target has a glossy metallic art piece available framed for $33, and several nearly 50% off leather-and-wood chairs that pair beautifully with the marble side table.

Other favorites: a highly rated Martha Stewart casserole dish discounted more than 50%, a World Market armchair at 40% off with FURNSALE, and several small decor items from Pottery Barn and West Elm that make great tabletop or bookshelf accents.

For Small Business Saturday (and year-round support of independent makers), here are a few Etsy and artist recommendations worth checking out:

  1. Claire Elsaesser – long-time favorite for prints we’ve displayed in our bedroom.
  2. Handmade leather pulls – a simple upgrade that can transform basic furniture like Ikea dressers.
  3. Danielle Oakey – beautiful, well-made pillows; she’s offering 15% off plus free shipping with code FREESHIPPING.
  4. Emily Jeffords – standout landscape prints we’ve collected and enjoyed for years.
  5. Handmade ceramics – practical and beautiful pieces like small planters or dock-style planters are charming on counters.
  6. Samantha French – striking original prints with delicate light and texture; one of our earliest art purchases.
  7. Garbella – a cute tea towel that’s perfect for a small kitchen or bathroom.
  8. Joanne Ho (HeloBirdie) – original prints we picked up and can’t stop looking at; they look great in simple gold frames.
  9. Gwen Meyerson – painterly prints, especially appealing if you like whimsical color and architecture.
