15 Home Deals to Shop During Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days, According to Interior Designers

Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days start tomorrow, October 8, and this year, the event is featuring millions of deals across tech, fashion, kitchen, and beauty. But one category  you definitely shouldn’t skip is home. Furniture, decor, bedding, lighting, and much more will be steeply discounted during the two-day sale, and there’s no better time than now to upgrade your home, elevate your decor, and add personal flair to your space. 

You don’t have to do the work of scouring through the countless deals, either. We spoke to three interior designers and asked them for their top deals to shop during October Prime Day.

The Best Interior Designer-Approved Prime Day Deals

“Rather than going for a crisp, clean, minimalist look, it’s all about lived-in coziness as the weather cools down and the leaves change, so it’s also no surprise to see people decorating with textures like velvet and chunky knits, along with warmer colors,” Brittney Morgan, owner and designer at Brittney Quinn Interiors, tells Real Simple. 

With this in mind, we rounded up 15 interior designer-approved deals to score during Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days, including stylish floor lamps, chic futons, versatile coffee tables, and area rugs. The prices start at $12, so don’t wait to grab these deals! 

Novogratz Tallulah Memory Foam Futon

Futons have come a long way in terms of design, and they’re no longer a utilitarian furniture piece reserved for college dorms or first-time apartments. This Novogratz futon features elevated details, like tufted buttons, wooden legs, a smooth, velvet-like material, and rounded armrests that elevate it far beyond the traditional futon. “Soft, rounded edges are trending right now,” Joyce Huston, co-founder and lead interior designer at Decorilla, tells Real Simple, adding, “[They] bring a softer feel to typically angular contemporary spaces.” 

Nvrgiup Candle Warmer Lamp

A candle-warmer lamp is the perfect blend of decorative and functional, and this unique lamp will add a stylish touch to your decor while helping your home smell wonderful. “These have been trending for the past couple of years, and it’s definitely a trend I’m here for,” Morgan says. “I love that you get to appreciate the scent of your favorite candles in a more subtle way that doesn’t require any open flames, and they do double duty by providing ambient lighting.” You can adjust the height, the brightness, and timing settings of this lamp, too!

Melomoir 71-Inch by 32-Inch Full-Length Floor Mirror

“Mirrors not only enhance the lighting in a room but also create an illusion of more space,” Colleen Bennett, president and interior designer at CBB Design Firm, explains. This mirror measures just under six feet tall, and features a sleek black frame that can give your entryway, living room, bedroom, or office some flair. “A mirror with a slim, understated frame in matte black or brushed gold opens up the room and adds a polished, contemporary touch,” Huston adds. 

Safavieh Landen Leaf 63.5-Inch Antique Gold Floor Lamp

Floor lamps are essential to have in your home, as they can help create a cozy atmosphere. “Floor lamps serve both functional and aesthetic purposes, providing needed light while also becoming a focal point in any room,” Bennett notes, adding, “a well-designed floor lamp can elevate the style of a space.” With a stunning design of sculpted leaves and gold details, this lamp is a steal for over $100 off its original price.    

Loloi Layla Collection 7.6-Foot x 9.6-Foot Vintage-Inspired Low-Pile Rug

Area rugs are an easy way to give your home some extra oomph without going through the trouble of assembling furniture, rearranging bulky seating pieces, or meticulously positioning pictures and wall art—you simply unroll it, and you’re done. At $359 off, this rug is the perfect addition to your space thanks to its earthy tones and a vintage-inspired design.  “I don’t think a living room or bedroom is complete without a soft area rug to tie everything together and define different spaces like seating areas,” Morgan explains. 

Kate and Laurel Lipton Modern Hexagon Tray

If you enjoy decorating your coffee table, you know the struggle of trying to make the space look nice around less aesthetically pleasing items like remotes or tissue boxes. This coffee table tray can alleviate this stylistic challenge and keep your essentials neat and in place with a thoughtful touch. “A coffee table tray is also on my must-haves list,” Morgan shares, adding, “it allows you to corral remotes and coasters and display decor in one centralized place that you can style, rather than having items all over the tabletop.”

Amélie Home Chunky Knit Throw Blanket

You can never go wrong with a cozy throw blanket, but if you want to make your space look better, Morgan recommends adding a chunky knit blanket, like this one, to your couch or seating furniture, as it can help create a more welcoming environment. “A nice, chunky knit blanket can keep you warm on chilly, rainy days as you marathon your favorite show, which is definitely key this season,” she adds. 

Yaheetech Vintage Lift-Top Coffee Table

For holding your home essentials, like TV remotes, candles, books, magazines, and decor, pick up this coffee table while it’s on sale during Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days. It not only has a rustic wood design, but it also features a lift top to store things like blankets, board games, and other home goods. If you’re on the hunt for something more unique, Huston advises to look for “something that feels more like an art piece, organic shapes, mixed materials like wood and metal, or even stone.”

Pukami Cross-Legged Office Chair

Whether you work from home or have a desk to work on hobbies or crafts, a solid office chair can make all the difference. Morgan loves cross-legged office chairs, like this one from Pukami, as it’s both comfortable and stylish, with an extra-wide cushion and striped gray pattern that will look great with any home aesthetic or color palette.   

Deconovo Corduroy Pillow Covers, Set of 2

Pillow covers, like area rugs, are another simple way to add flair to your space. These corduroy pillow covers feature a buttery-smooth texture and come in a deep green color, which Huston likes incorporating into home design projects. “Deep green accents with softer, muted tones like sage and oatmeal create a serene yet sophisticated atmosphere,” she explains. 

Vevor 4-Foot Artificial ​Palm Trees, 2 Pack

“Biophilic design is a must have,” Huston says, adding, “it’s about bringing natural elements like plants, natural light, and natural materials into our buildings and homes…[which] can help us feel more relaxed, focused, and connected to the world around us.” You can add biophilic design to your home with this set of artificial palm trees from Vevor. They stand four feet tall and feature realistic-looking leaves, adjustable branches, and real palm silk around the base.  

Colamy Accent Chair

Whether you need to upgrade your seating or want to add a chair to your office, reading nook, bedroom, or living room, this accent chair is an excellent choice. “A stylish accent chair can serve as both a functional and decorative piece,” Bennett explains. “It adds personality and provides a cozy spot for reading or lounging.” This accent chair is designed with rubber legs with a wooden finish, rounded armrests, and high-density cushions that give you plenty of support. 

Richer House Black Floating Shelves, Set of 3

Floating shelves are “perfect for showcasing curated decor and keeping the space streamlined,” Huston shares. To help cut down furniture clutter on your floor, take storage and decor to your walls with this set of floating shelves. They’re 17 inches long by 5.7 inches wide, and can hold up to 20 pounds per shelf. As you shop, Huston says to keep an eye out for “black or brass shelves,” as they “add a sleek, architectural element to walls.” 

Signature Design by Ashley Hannela 17-Inch Vase

Decorative floral arrangements and seasonal decor can pair very well with the right vase, and this 17-inch vase will take your home decor to the next level. Outside of its large size, it has a textured ribbed design that catches the eye, and a rustic tan finish that can pair well with most decor styles. For the ultimate warm, cozy feel, think “earthy tones and lots of textures,” Huston shares. 

Songmics Storage Ottoman

“Ottomans not only provide extra seating or a footrest but also serve as a smart storage solution, perfect for keeping throws, magazines, or toys hidden away,” Bennett explains. This ottoman checks the above criteria, and triples as storage, seating, and a footrest. It is built to hold 35 gallons under the bench, and features a classic design, like tufted details, sleek legs, and a soft linen texture. Not to mention, it can support up to 330 pounds.
