It’s officially wintertime. These cold, short days can bring some cabin fever and a little bit of the doldrums sometimes. Winter is also peak nesting season — the perfect time to focus on brightening up your space and making it extra cozy for those movie nights in. And almost no store does bright and fun like Anthropologie.

That’s why I asked a home stager to share how she would spend $150 at Anthropologie. I figured that nothing would perk up my spirits more than figuring out how to glam up my space. Amy Zdunowski, founder of staging firm Nomad Staging Co, quickly went to work, and shared her favorite picks that will bring some sparkle into your indoor world. Here’s what she chose.

She did go slightly over budget — and ended up picking three items that came out to a total of $152. If she had a few extra dollars, she would also buy this gorgeous iridescent Skeem Match Cloche.

Gilded Agate Coaster

Anthropologie

$16.00

Zdunowski loves these functional coaster accents for their sophistication. With natural edges and gilded agate, they add a touch of elegance to any surface they’re placed on. Plus they come in six different hues, which makes them the perfect mix-and-match coaster set if you want to buy a few sets of four.

Velvet Trova Pillow

Anthropologie

$88.00

Zdunowski picked the burnt orange Velvet Trova pillow, which she says makes any space feel more opulent. But I love these pillows because they do serious double time: They work just as well on beds as they do as throw pillows on couches. They’re comfortable and made up of a sumptuous fabric.

Cut Glass Candle Holder

Anthropologie

$48.00

Candle fanatics, this one’s for you. Fans of vintage charm (and statement pieces) will love these candleholders, which add some antique elegance to any room — living room, dining room, bedroom. Zdunowski also loves them for the subtle sparkle they bring to a space; there’s nothing cozier than lighting some taper candles during movie night.
