Home Essentials

Kitchen Must Haves

1. Coffee Machine

I’m a huge coffee girly so having a coffee machine is a must have for me. This basic drip coffee machine is perfect for all the coffee drinkers that want to stay on a budget!

2. Kitchen Dishes

I love buying kitchen dishes as sets. It makes things so much easier. You don’t have to try and find everything separately and you can usually get the set for cheaper than if you were buying everything separate.

3. Pots & Pans

Pots and pans are a huge must have for your home. You literally need them for cooking. These nonstick pans are a great budget friendly option.

4. Utensils

Utensils are definitely a needed home essential. This basic utensil set is a great option if this is your first time moving into a home.

5. Hand Mixer

If you’re a baker having a hand mixer is a must! And you can easily get one if you’re trying to stick to a budget. Having a hand mixer will save you trust me!

6. Cooking Utensils

You need cooking utensils! What would you cook with if you didn’t have these? I love having a cute utensil set so I can have everything on my counter ready to go.

7. Drinking Glasses

Another absolute must for your home. You will need to have glasses for all your favorite drinks. I love amazon and I personally think they have really good drinking glasses that are super budget friendly.

8. Barstools

Barstools are definitely needed if you have an island of any sort. There are so many options when it comes to barstools however these barstools from amazon are super cute and affordable!

9. Baking Sheets

I use baking sheets literally every day. Baking sheets work great for baking cookies, roasting vegetables, or could even be used for making one pan recipes!

10. Measuring cups and Spoons

Measuring cups and spoons are really important for making sure your recipes have all the right measurements. You can also get them super cheap! This set from amazon is a great option.

Bedroom Must Haves

11. Bed Frame

A bed frame is a super important must have for any bedroom. Although they can get pricey this bedframe from target is super reasonably priced. This bed frame has storage drawers and an adjustable headboard which is huge plus!

12. Mattress

Unless you want to be sleeping on your couch or floor a mattress is an absolute must have in your home. When I bought my first bed I wasn’t going to spend a crazy amount of money. I wanted to get the best deal I could find! This amazon memory foam mattress has 4.5 out of 5 stars and amazing reviews. Plus, the price is a steal! It’s a great mattress option.

13. Mattress Topper

If you’re wanting to feel like you bought your bed for $1,000 bucks this mattress cover will do just that!

14. Sheets

I’m not super picky when it comes to picking out sheets. I stick with sheets that are super simple and affordable.

15. Comforter

Now when it comes to my comforter, I’m super picky. I’ve always struggled to find the best comforter until I found a bamboo cooling comforter. I will never go back to another comforter. Now I’m just trying to find seasonal bamboo cooling comforters. I always like changing my comforters out for the holidays but won’t be doing it anymore until I can find holiday bamboo cooling comforters. LOL.

16. Pillows

Now I’m not super picky when it comes to my pillows however I do need two of them and I prefer cooling pillows. This is the only cooling pillow I’ve bought, and they’ve worked really well for me! My husband even has one.

17. Dresser

I’m not one to buy super expensive furniture when it’s my first time buying furniture. I like to buy something cheaper until I can find what I actually want and like. I really like things to match and I’m picky about a lot of the things I have in my house. In my opinion I think it would be a waste to buy something expensive and not like it once I get it. A dresser is one of those things I buy cheaper until I find what I really want. This dresser from amazon is super cute and affordable, and if you’re like me and want to wait to find something a little more expensive than this is the perfect dresser for you.

18. Nightstand

Again, I’m not going to go crazy and buy super expensive nightstands right away. These amazon nightstands match great with the dresser above and are really affordable!

Bathroom Must Haves

19. Hand Towels

Of course, you will be needing hand towels for your bathroom. I have a bad habit of drying my hands on my shirt and pants. LOL. I’ve been trying really hard to break this habit and picking out cute hand towels is a great way to help me do that. Amazon has super cute and cheap hand towels.

20. Bath Towels

I’m super picky about the type of towels I use. I don’t like small towels and will always get extra-large bath towels.

21. Bathroom Mat

When it comes to my bathroom mat, I like to make it super simple. I feel like no matter what type I get I will still have to replace it at some point. This bathroom mat on amazon is super affordable and comes in so many different colors and designs.

22. Trash Can

I like getting fancy trash cans. LOL. It makes every bathroom look so much nicer. If you’re not wanting to spend as much on a trash can amazon, Walmart, or even target will have more basic and cheaper ones.

23. Shower Curtin and Liner

I’m always washing and replacing my shower curtains and liners. I only like the plastic liners that I can just throw away. I like things really clean and I’m not a big fan of any other shower liners. Even if I can wash them, I just find it gross. LOL. For the shower curtains I’d rather have it be fabric. I can easily wash it and don’t have to buy a new one every time.

Living room Must Haves

24. Couch

A couch is something that I also don’t want to spend a crazy amount of money on right away. I want to take time to find a couch I really love. I have this exact couch from amazon and it’s super comfy. The price is great and is actually decently sized. If you’re looking for a comfy and affordable couch, I highly suggest this one.

25. Coffee Table

I’d much rather have a rectangle coffee table rather than a circle coffee table. I use my coffee table more than my normal table and I like to have lots of room.

26. Floor Lamp

A floor lamp isn’t really a home essential that is needed but if you have the extra money and are wanting a floor lamp this one from amazon is great! It’s super cute and a great price!

27. Rug

Rugs are super nice to have if you don’t have carpet. But they’re so expensive! I found this really cute rug on amazon that’s actually really cheap and will work great in any home that doesn’t have carpet!

28. TV

TV’s can get so expensive. Luckily amazon has some really good deals on TV’s.

29. Throw Blanket

I’m extra and I like heated throw blankets. When I’m all cozy on the couch watching my favorite show, I like being really warm and comfy. If you’re looking for a simple throw blanket Walmart also has some really cute and affordable options.
