13 Designer-Approved Maximalist Amazon Home Decor Picks

Maximalism is in, and if you’re ready to go all out and create the maximalist home of your dreams, you’re in luck—it’s pretty easy and even affordable to create the eclectic, colorful vibes you want in any space. And the best part is, maximalism isn’t a one-size-fits all decor style, so it can be completely unique to you and your interests. And no, a maximalist space doesn’t have to be cluttered and full of tchotchkes (though it absolutely can be, if that’s your thing!). 

Take it from an interior designer: Maximalism isn’t necessarily about having tons of stuff, but rather, using stuff you love strategically and layering textures, colors, and patterns to create a dynamic, eclectic space. If you’re an aspiring maximalist and don’t know where to start, don’t worry: I’ve got you (and your budget) covered. Below, check out 13 affordable home decor pieces from Amazon that would fit right in in a maximalist space—alongside my professional advice for incorporating items like them into your home.

Layer Patterns on Patterns

Safavieh Phoenix Collection 8’ x 10’ Area Rug

One of the easiest ways to embrace maximalism in your home? Don’t be afraid to mix prints and patterns. A bold, patterned rug like this pick from Safavieh will ground your space and set the tone for the room, allowing you to pull out all the different colors from it to inspire the rest of your decor—but that’s not all. To really layer your patterns, add an eye-catching wallpaper (the crane patterned peel-and-stick paper below is a great option that comes in four different colors) or hang curtains with a unique print like these sunny yellow geometric curtains, then level up your sofa or bed with a variety of different throw pillows like this block print option from Domvitus that’s available in seven different colors and multiple size options. To make it all work together, you just need to stick to a consistent color story as the through line. Plus, these are all items you’d likely be putting in your home anyway, so choosing pretty patterns and prints for them is an opportunity to really show off your personality in the process.

Decorate Vertically

Scandinordica Hanging Disco Ball Planter

Maximalism and blank walls don’t mix, so make sure you’re hanging art and decor on the walls—or even from the ceiling. One of my favorite maximalist decor pieces is this disco ball planter. It’s a way to embrace the mirrorball trend, but it serves a purpose by holding a plant, and while it’s fun and funky, it’s still relatively neutral and will catch the sunlight and bounce it around the room. Another option is to hang a large, textural art piece on the wall, like the dip-dye macrame wall hanging below that can bring some interest and color to your space in an effortless way. And as a designer who also plays guitar, I also recommend showing off your beloved instruments and incorporating them into your decor. Personally, I use these heavy-duty wall mounts from Omniwood to hang my guitars, and it definitely makes a statement.

Make a Statement With Lighting

Orange Mid-Century Egg Tart Lamp

Every space needs a variety of lighting to create ambience and complete the different tasks you do in each room, so think of it as yet another opportunity to make the most of the essentials. Whether you go retro and funky like this gorgeous orange mid-century egg tart lamp (which also comes in white, copper, and red) or vintage-inspired like the floor lamp below with a stunning green scalloped glass frame that resembles a flower, you can’t go wrong. You can even hang a whimsical pendant light with mixed and matched colorful globes like this one from KCO Lighting. Layer different types of lighting throughout the space, but again, keep the color palette consistent, and try to pull shapes from your other decor to tie into your lighting choices.

Style Shelves Thoughtfully

Creative Co-Op Round Resin and Reclaimed Wood Box

As a maximalist myself, I love the styling possibilities that open shelves offer, but if you’re someone who loves stuff, it can be challenging to find the balance between showing off the pretty things you’ve collected and keeping your space free of clutter. That’s where this round black and white lidded box from Creative Co-Op comes in. Pretty storage containers add more texture, color, and personality to your space and give you a place to stash items that you don’t necessarily want on display. And continuing the theme of infusing personality and maximalism into essential and functional items around your home, these planter bookends from Main + Mesa are a clever way to add some life and color (via real or faux plants) to your bookshelves and hold rows of books in place. And you can step up your candle game with a set of taper candle holders that come in one matching color but a variety of shapes and sizes to add interest without going overboard.
