This is an excerpt from an article written by Sarah Lyon in February 2024

When major sales roll around, designers know what kinds of items are worth scooping up and always make it a priority to invest in certain essentials for the bedroom, kitchen, bathroom, and more.

Below, the pros share seven types of items that they always make sure to purchase when the price is right. Keep your eyes peeled for these picks so that you can spruce up your space without breaking the bank.

Bedding

Jenn Cameron, the founder of Jenn Cameron Interiors, likes to purchase neutral bedding when it's on sale. Cameron explains how a neutral duvet or coverlet often allows other elements in the room to shine, which is why it's worth the investment.

"If you aren't ready to decide on bigger commitment items, such as the wallpaper, the bedding won't dictate the whole feel or vibe of the space."

Erika Bonnell, the founder of Erika Bonnell Interiors, also likes to invest in new bedding when it's marked down. "I like to update my bedding once a year, so grabbing something during their sale is always a nice bonus," Bonnell says.
