Styling your home doesn’t need to break the bank and if you look in the right places, you can snag yourself some faux-luxe homewares without the hefty price tag.
Kmart has been a long-time favourite for uni students decorating share houses and savvy bargain hunters alike, but is often wrongly overlooked by the high-end inclined home decorator.
Kmart’s game changing homewares collection has pioneered the introduction of affordability to home styling and now rivals ritzy décor stores.
Here’s our top picks for your home.
For the kitchen
Kmart’s retro kitchen appliance range is a beautiful way of adding a hint of vintage to your home. Appliances come in three colours – mint, black and white and are easily confused with their $200 dollar competitors.
The kettle and matching toaster are just $39 each.
For the bathroom
Rather than storing folded towels in a cramped cupboard, display them on this decorative bamboo ladder retailing at $25.
It not only looks great but it’s handy for when you have guests – just tell them to grab a fresh towel from the ladder – no more hunting for a clean towel in the dreaded cupboard.
Matte black is a trending at the moment and looks great in modern bathrooms.
Kmart’s ‘Indi’ range of matte black bathroom products look high end but are around the same cost as a take away coffee.
For the living room
This grey velvet occasional chair would give any living space a luxe vibe.
Drape a fur throw over it and you have yourself a stunning statement piece.
It’s $49 and can be paired with the matching grey velvet bench.
You could be mistaken for thinking this A-frame ladder bookshelf was an expensive, custom furniture piece.
It is a steal at $45 and would look great in the living room with books and a few decorative candles or in the bathroom to stack folded towels and an indoor plant.
For the bedroom
Blush pink is a massive trend at the moment and this Lana lilac coverlet is an affordable way to jump aboard the blush bandwagon.
The coverlet is queen/king size and retails for $30. Kmart also sell matching standard and European size pillowcase covers to complete the look.
