I'm a Home-Decor Writer — Here Are the Nordstrom Pieces I'm Buying For My Pad in 2022

While I swear by clean cosmetics and organic produce, I have to admit that I still buy disposable paper towels. (I know, I know: it's not best my trait.) I'm determined to find a sustainable alternative I'll actually use — and I currently have my sights set on this Baggu Assorted 3-Piece Organic Cotton Reusable Cloth Set ($26). Not only can these cloths be used time and time again, but they're also ridiculously cute. I never thought I'd become low-key obsessed with a dish cloth, but here we are!

Real talk: a person can never have too many cosy throw blankets — especially in those colder months. UGG is known for its ultraplush lining, and thanks to its Nisa Fleece Throw Blanket ($128), I can snuggle up in this cosy fabric during my next movie marathon.

Confession time: I'll find any excuse to pick up a new candle. (A good sale? A random Tuesday? I'll take anything.) And since I've basically burned through my festive flames, I'm eying this Overose Valkira Candle ($58). With notes of fig, coconut milk, cedarwood, and vineyard peaches, this option has some year-round appeal. (Plus, the pink canister and wax are downright adorable.)

I'm a big proponent of writing notes by hand — especially if I'm facing a bit of writer's block. Problem is, my desk is always covered in a bunch of stray papers. In the spirit of getting more organised in 2022, this Dauphinette Dandelion Paperweight ($100) will get the job done and double as conversation-sparking art when idle.

I've been a big fan of Estelle's Coloured Glass for years but never splurged on my own set. My fiancé and I are planning to throw a postholiday party in January — aptly named the "Winter Blues Bash" — so that's definitely a good enough of a reason to buy these Estelle Coloured Glass Set of 6 Regal Flutes ($225). Cheers!

ICYMI, a silk pillowcase has a lot more to offer than a luxe look. Not only does it help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, but it can also keep frizzy hair to a minimum. That's exactly why I'm adding this Blissy Mulberry Silk Pillowcase ($68-$90) to my cart. After all, beauty sleep is the gift that keeps on giving.

Stop the presses: Nordstrom just added some of Justina Blakeney's boho-chic decor to its inventory. At the top of my list is this 3-Piece Soleil Quilt Set ($99-$120), which will give any bed a cosy edge.

One of my biggest resolutions is to finish decorating my new apartment. I'm currently looking for a cute console to put in my foyer and will add the Three Potato Four New York City Small Tray ($15). Best of all? This tray will fill my home with a Big Apple energy — yes, even all the way from the West Coast.

With an exaggerated silhouette and spacious design, the Farmhouse Pottery Araucana Bread Board ($95) will be the hero of any kitchen. I know it's technically a "bread board," but I'm planning to use this surface for charcuterie, apps, and so much more. Practical and pretty? Yes, please.

Pro tip: treat yourself to a batch of bodega flowers, and stick them in a fancy vase. I'm loving this Ferm Living Ania Muse Vase ($115), which looks like a modern take on a Grecian artifact. Eat your heart out, Aphrodite!
