Isn’t it just all of our absolute dreams to have a place that we can call our own? Just picture it, your own space which you can paint and decorate as you wish without any winging parents, partners or flatmates who accuse you of buying one too many succulents for the downstairs toilet. But who am I kidding, in this day and age it’s so difficult for young people to be able to afford a place by themselves, with the majority of first time buyers being over the age of 30. So, until then, we’ll make do with flat sharing or crashing at our parents’ place for a few days, or weeks, or months…You get the point! But, despite where you live, can you always add a few things to your flat to make yourself feel at home and your space feel, well, you. Whether it’s adding a string of fairy lights above your bed or buying a super pretty ceramic vase for the living room, there are so many seriously cute flat accessories that can help you personalise your living space and brighten up even the dingiest of student houses. Here are a few of our absolute favourites!
This super cute rose-tinted hanging mirror from Urban Outfitters is a must have for any bedroom. With its unique ‘shard of glass’ shape and beautiful gold hardware, this mirror is an eye-catching staple among itself! What’s more, if you are in a rented property and can’t go around hammering nails into the wall, all you need to do is pick up some sticky wall hooks from Wilko and hang it up with those to prevent any wall damage and unnecessary damage fees. This is definitely one of the best cute flat accessories.
This Anthropologie magazine rack is the living room accessory you didn’t know you needed! With its Scandinavian-like minimalistic design it is guaranteed to spice up and dull looking living rooms. Not only does it look very aesthetically pleasing, but it is also multi-functional as it could also be a great print shelf and will give you a great excuse to make a cheeky Desenio haul!
This stunning glass top table is only £49.99 in the sale from ZARA Home which is an absolute bargain! Perfect as a coffee table for the living room, a bed-side table or simply a table to put your bits and bots on in the hallway, this beautifully simplistic table has SO many uses.
If you’re looking for an excuse to replace all those coffee-stained, chipped IKEA mugs that you bought God knows how long ago, then look no further. These ‘love you’ porcelain mugs from H&M Home which come in a 2-pack are absolutely adorable! They have super cute text on them which make them perfect for sharing with your other half or just all for yourself. After all, we all deserve a bit of self-love!
If you’re looking for a cute looking kitchen accessory to freshen up your kitchen, this Anthropologie chopping board is perfect for you. With removable ‘Prep’ and ‘Serve’ sides made from wood and marble, this board is perfect for all you dinner party hostesses out there and will look absolutely stunning on any kitchen counter!
This battery-powered moon-shaped light is the perfect decorative accessory for any home. If you have an empty wall in your flat that you are looking to fill, this light sculpture could be the one for you. It also has warm-white coloured lights which means that it will be super cozy when switched on in the evening.
A super cute but also extremely practical home accessory is this simplistic butler’s table from The White Company. I know what you’re thinking, at £95.00 it’s not exactly cheap. But hear me out. It has multiple purposes: a decorative coffee table, a portable dining table with it’s removable tray (did I hear breakfast in bed?!) or take it outdoors and use it as a place to rest your homemade iced coffee while enjoying the summer sun. It’s definitely an investment piece but 100% will be worth your while!
This stunning black marble clock just screams ‘chic’. Extremely minimal in design and featuring a simple golden clock hand, this Oliver Bonas treasure is the perfect accessory to class-up an old, lived-in living room or kitchen. With a heavy black marble base which creates an industrial aesthetic, this clock is great for those of us who love a standout piece! This is one of the best cute flat accessories.
You may be thinking, what on earth is a couch-arm table? Well, to put it simply, it’s kind of just a piece of wood that you put over the arm of your sofa and it acts like a mini coffee table. It sounds stupid but it is actually very handy and looks super cute!
This little gem is the perfect home accessory for those of you who don’t want to sacrifice space in your home and can definitely replace a bulkier, more traditional style of coffee table if you don’t have the room for it. This particular couch arm table from Etsy features a built-in magazine rack and is handmade from Oak so would look perfect in a living room with other oak features. A unique and simplistic way to tie your living room together while still saving space, this is definitely an adorable home accessory worth picking up!
