Products you buy through our links may earn us a commission. Oh, and if something's out of stock, oops, it was there (and all prices were accurate) at time of publication.

As we head into chillier weather, you may be feeling the desire to transform your home into a comfy little cocoon. We’re here to help you do just that — but on a budget (all of these decor finds are under $100). Aka lots of blankets, throw pillows, faux fur, twinkling lights, candles to light (or not), and more. So put the kettle on and start a fire, because it’s about to get real cozy.

throw
Anthropologie

A throw that’s perfect for the end of the bed…

Take it from us, this throw feels just as good as it looks. We wanted something to keep on our bed and pull up when nights start to get chilly, and this is exactly right. The eyelash fabric is so soft and not scratchy at all, and it’s just the right thickness to keep us comfortable. You can’t go wrong with any of the five available colors. ($68.60, Anthropologie)

candle
Nordstrom

Our favorite pumpkin spice candle…

You heard it here first: Nest’s Pumpkin Chai candle is the best-smelling pumpkin candle we’ve ever used. Not one ounce of the scent smells fake or overly sweet, and it comes in a gorgeous orange glass vessel. Plus, the scent permeates the room even when it’s not lit, so you don’t need to burn it all the time. ($20+, Nordstrom)

Buy it
table-lamp
Target

A table lamp that gives the room a nice glow…

When you flick this light on, the gold dome lends a soft glow that’s downright cozy. The marble base is pretty, too, and the double pull chains give this a retro feel. An added bonus: It comes with a light bulb. ($80.99, Target)

Buy it
dumpling-light
Forever21

A dumpling light to give your room a glow…

This little battery-powered dumpling has a wry look on its face that can’t help but make you smile. Turn it on to cast a warm glow while you sip your favorite tea in bed. Cozy mode, activated. ($22, Forever21)

Buy it
twinkling string lights
Amazon

LED string lights for the ultimate cozy bedroom…

Nothing makes a bedroom dreamier than some twinkle lights. These plug into the wall and extend up to 33 feet when fully stretched, and they have eight modes (ranging from a constant on to a slow fade). Movie nights with mood lighting? Check. ($8.99+, Amazon)

Buy it
blue and white bubble candles
Amazon

A pair of bubble candles to place around your home…

Add some whimsy to your coffee table with these playful little candles. They have a lightly floral scent, and both are made from soy wax. They’re almost too cute to be lit. ($11.99+/2-pack, Amazon)

Buy it
flameless flickering candles that are battery operated
Amazon

Battery-operated flameless candles you won’t have to blow out…

If you like to fall asleep with some ambient lighting, these will become your go-to. You can set them via a timer in periods of two hours and they’ll automatically turn off. The faux flames look like they’re flickering, so you’ll get a realistic vibe without the safety hazard. Plus, they’re perfect for fireplace mantels if you’re looking to decorate for the holidays. ($25.99+/9-pack, Amazon)

Buy it
removable constellation wallpaper peel and stick
Amazon

Constellation-themed removable wallpaper for renters who are tired of white walls…

It’s peel-and-stick, mess-free, and self-adhesive, so you won’t need any glues or pastes for installation. Consider it a weekend DIY project: You can reposition the paper as needed as you work to align the seams. Whether you’re creating an accent wall, decorating a bathroom (it’s moisture- and steam-resistant), or zhuzhing up a bookcase, this wallpaper lets you personalize your space in a non-permanent way. ($29.11+/per roll, Amazon)

Buy it
round mirror with leather hanging strap
Urban Outfitters

A round mirror with a leather strap for a refined industrial vibe…

Place it in your bedroom or over your bathroom sink. It’s way more chic than wood-framed mirrors and will elevate any room. Customers praise its high quality and construction, saying it’s very sturdy and easy to hang. ($89, Urban Outfitters)

Buy it
faux fur pillows
Anthropologie

Soft faux fur pillows to add to your couch…

Perfect for movie nights, these pillows are incredibly comfy and come in six rich shades, like eggplant and copper. They add just the right amount of warmth, and the feather-and-down fill will keep its shape. If you’re looking to make your couch the coziest place ever, we suggest adding the matching throw. ($88, Anthropologie)

Buy it
faux fur throw blanket
Target

A faux fur throw to wrap yourself in every night…

This faux-rabbit blanket comes in at a low price point, but doesn’t sacrifice quality. It’s available in three colors and measures 60 inches by 50 inches. If you’re worried about washing it — don’t be. One customer review notes that after washing it on gentle, it came out looking brand new, and it doesn’t shed either. ($25, Target)

Buy it
name blanket
BaubleBar

A customizable name blanket that also makes a great gift…

We have this knitted blanket and keep it draped over our desk chair for chilly days spent working from home. It’s pretty thick so it feels substantial draped across a lap or over shoulders. Add your name (or a lucky loved one’s) for a personalized touch. ($98+, BaubleBar)

Buy it
woven coasters in flower shapes
Etsy

Crochet and cork coasters with cottagecore vibes…

These coasters speak for themselves. They’re straight up adorable and will put a smile on your face any time you use them. Mornings spent sipping your cup of coffee never were so picturesque. ($6.39+, LoveIndyUK via Etsy)

jute storage basket
Amazon

A woven storage basket for pretty much anything…

Use this to store blankets, shoes, sweaters, toys, or other miscellaneous items that create mess (and eyesores) around your house. The two handles make it easy to tote around the house, so this also works well as a chic laundry basket. Plus, the jute exterior and beaded tassel add warmth and texture to any room. ($23.99, Amazon)

A watercolor print that’s calming and delicate…

Worried about taking care of a cute little plant? How about a cute little painting of one, instead?

A washable rug to warm up bare floors…

Cover up places where no bare foot wants to go. This skid-resistant runner size is particularly ideal for spots that don't have the room for a full-sized rug, like a hallway or in the kitchen. It comes in three colors and five other sizes. ($15+, Target)

Buy it
eucalyptus shower steamer
Etsy

A eucalyptus shower steamer to turn your bathroom into a spa…

Lavender is bundled with eucalyptus to make your shower experience so much more relaxing. We recommend hanging it behind your shower head so it doesn’t get soaking wet. The steam from the hot water will activate the essential oils and produce calming scents. ($32+, BloomBarFloralDesign on Etsy)
