9. Glassware

Sound strange? Really, it’s not. Several of these items, from elegant, towering, transparent cylinders to delicate vases, are produced in European nations renowned for their glass-making techniques. If you know a family birthday is approaching, or even a random barbecue, you might want to stop at HomeGoods before to grab a few pieces of glassware for less than $10. Depending on its shape and size, here you can definitely find something good-looking for your festive table.

Bottom line:

Pro tips directly from interior designers: Always, but always, if you love something, grab it! Especially if it’s from HomeGoods! There are so many nice things here that can instantly improve the look of your home for a few dollars. And even if you already have a list of the things you need to buy, try “freestyle” shopping and be open to other things as well. What if you see a nice pillow, but it’s not on your list? Maybe it can be a nice addition to your living room. Who knows?

Moreover, it’s also a good idea to make one last fast circuit of the store before you leave (of course, if you’re not in a hurry), whether you head straight for your favorite parts or simply wander aisle by aisle. Given all the things there are to look at, it’s easy to overlook that essential vase or table lamp that’s tucked away at the back of a shelf.
