These Are the Only Things Designers Are Buying for Their Homes This January

Whether or not your new year’s resolution is to catch more ZZZs, you may want to use January as a time to stock up on new linens for your sleep space and beyond. “Replace any stained, soiled, or faded linens, towels, sheets, and bedding,” suggests designer Sallie Lord, the founder of Grey Hunt Interiors. This Brooklinen bundle is a way to do that for your bath in one fell swoop, and it’s currently 15% off regular retail.

Shopping for outdoor furniture when the temperatures are below 40 may seem counterintuitive, but designer Taylor Fusco stresses that January is an excellent month to snag some major deals on pieces that will serve you well during the warmer months. “Whether it's a dining set, a conversational set, or beautifully trimmed tasseled umbrellas, January is the time to snatch them up,” says the founder of Tay Fusco Design. Right now, this classic, lattice-look outdoor dining chair from Serena & Lily is 50% off, and although it's an investment, it’ll never go out of style.

On the note of shopping for the coming months, consider stocking up on holiday decor for next winter. “Most of these items see significant markdowns, which makes it the perfect time to take advantage of the opportunity and store them away for the upcoming year,” says designer Ashley Hunte, the founder of Saint James Atelier. Try this almost-60%-off, pretty confetti glass ball garland, which, thanks to its neutral color, could really work for any celebration you want to decorate for.

Once you’ve tackled your larger organizational projects, look for ways to keep the top of your dresser or nightstand more neat and tidy, too. “Even pretty catchall trays or boxes work wonders to make your home — and you — feel pulled together and on top of things,” says designer Ashley Fiocco, the founder of Ashley Fiocco Designs. If your counter, desk, or nightstand is looking a little blah, try the Lyla Trinket Dish.

Give those built-ins some love this year. “After the holiday decor has come down, everything feels bare — a refresh is always a good idea,” says designer Traci Connell, the founder of Traci Connell Interiors, who is in the market for new statement pieces. This globe literally levels up the 2023 disco ball trend.
