Happy Friday! I wanted to share a quick Memorial Day sale roundup since so many home items are discounted right now. I’ve learned it pays to wait for this weekend when shopping for housewares — I once ordered something two days before the sales and immediately regretted it. This year I held out, bought a couple of pieces I’d been watching, and rounded up a list of my favorite finds for the house and the beach house.
I’m starting with a few standout pieces from Serena & Lily that are currently on a strong sale. The capiz pendant is one of my top picks — it’s delicate, luminous, and even more beautiful in person. I’ve seen it used over a bar area and it adds instant charm. The side table I’ve been eyeing is already marked down and becomes a real steal with the extra sale code; two would be perfect in a beach house bedroom or flanking a living room sofa. If you want an elevated, coastal look without spending a fortune, capiz and natural textures are a great place to start.
Tassel-trimmed curtains are another favorite — playful yet sophisticated. They’re a fantastic way to introduce texture and softness to a bathroom or bedroom with neutral tile or subway tile. I considered them for my future bathroom renos but held off to avoid clashing with potential tile choices. If your space is already neutral, they’re an easy way to add personality.
I also love quirky accent furniture like the ceramic elephant side table. It feels unique and hand-crafted, and it works surprisingly well in both kids’ rooms and grown-up spaces. Ceramic animals are one of my decorating signatures — they bring warmth and whimsy without feeling childish.
For larger statements, there’s a showstopping capiz chandelier currently discounted with a shipping offer. Its scale makes it perfect for over a dining table, foyer, or island, and multiple lights mean it’s both beautiful and practical. Capiz fixtures are a recurring favorite for adding a soft, coastal glow to a room.
On the bedding front, I’m nostalgic about a soft blue duvet we once had — organic cotton, 400 thread count — and there are great sale prices on similar sets. Duvets like this deliver a comforting, timeless look that suits both modern and vintage-inspired bedrooms.
Affordable framing options caught my eye as well. Sleek frames with crisp mats can achieve the look of a pricey custom job without the cost — perfect for prints, photos, or a newly discovered piece of art. They’re an easy way to make a gallery wall look unified and polished.
For dining, I’m tempted by a casual table set that reads as indoor-friendly despite its patio origins. With a bench and chairs included, it’s a budget-friendly option for a beach house dining room; a large bowl or runner would hide an umbrella hole if needed. Practical, attractive, and very affordable.
Melamine glasses are a no-brainer for beach use — they come in lovely colors, are lightweight, and eliminate the stress of breakage. A hanging planter with stained glass panels is another purchase I made for the beach house; the colors will pick up the hues of the existing windows and add a bit of dreamy charm.
Other useful finds include a leaning storage shelf that saves floor space while offering open styling opportunities, a flush-mounted capiz light that’s an elegant alternative to a basic ceiling fixture, and woven stools that add a Parisian-inspired touch and practicality around a kitchen island.
One last perennial favorite: a polished gold mirror that bounces light and makes a room feel finished. Mirrors are a simple, high-impact element for any makeover.
