Freshen up your home for the festive season
As summer approaches and the festive season draws near, there’s no better time to give your home a little refresh. Black Friday 2025 is right around the corner, and it’s the perfect excuse to treat yourself (or someone else) to a few carefully chosen décor upgrades.
From new cushions and ceramics to beautifully designed door and cabinet handles, even the smallest details can change how a room feels. It’s less about starting from scratch and more about layering personality, colour, and texture to create spaces that feel new again.
Why shop décor during Black Friday?
For Australian design lovers, Black Friday and Cyber Monday are the highlight of the shopping calendar. Premium brands, boutique makers, and homeware stores release their best offers of the year, often on pieces that rarely go on sale.
It’s the ideal time to finally add that handcrafted vase you’ve been eyeing, refresh your cushions for summer, or invest in statement handles that elevate your cabinetry. Whether you’re updating your own space or finding thoughtful gifts, these limited-time deals make premium design more accessible than ever.
Your 2025 home décor wishlist
This year’s wishlist is all about texture, warmth, and timeless style. From elegant hardware to hand-thrown ceramics, here are the standout brands and pieces worth watching this Black Friday.
Designer handles & hardware – Manovella Design
Start with the touchpoints that bring a room together.
AtManovella, our locksmith-designed handles are made for both beauty and durability. Available in brushed brass, aged brass, gunmetal, brushed nickel, and matte black finishes, they’re a subtle yet striking way to lift cabinetry, wardrobes, or interior doors.
Hardware is one of the simplest upgrades with the biggest payoff, it ties your décor together, adds a sense of craftsmanship, and works across styles from minimalist to coastal.
Ceramics & vessels – Jones & Co, Mud Australia
Ceramics add soul to any space.
Jones & Co brings playful pattern and personality through hand-painted vases and planters, while Mud Australia offers minimalist porcelain pieces in calming, tonal shades.
Together, they strike the perfect balance: one adds colour and charm, the other quiet elegance. A few pieces on a shelf or dining table can instantly refresh the mood of a room.
Textiles – Sage and Clare, Kip&Co
If there’s one fast way to change the feel of a room, it’s through textiles.
Sage and Clare and Kip&Co are beloved for their vibrant patterns and richly layered palettes, from bold linen bedding to playful cushions and throws.
Black Friday is the best time to stock up before summer: think lighter fabrics, earthy colours, and prints that spark joy. Pair with brass or black hardware for a chic, contemporary contrast.
Tabletop & entertaining – Maison Balzac
Maison Balzac turns every dinner into an event. Their hand-blown glassware, sculptural candleholders, and softly tinted tumblers bring a sense of theatre to the table.
Mix and match pieces for easy summer entertaining, the pastel tones pair beautifully with white table linens and gold or brushed brass hardware. It’s the kind of styling that feels effortless but looks extraordinary.
Artistic accents – Bonnie & Neil
Finish your wishlist with a dose of creativity.
Bonnie & Neil is known for bold patterns and painterly prints inspired by Australian flora and coastlines. Their cushions, napkins, and wall hangings are perfect for injecting life into a neutral space or tying together a colour scheme.
A single patterned piece can add energy to an otherwise simple room, and during Black Friday, you can collect a few to switch out seasonally.
Styling tips: how to build your wishlist
- Mix textures and tones. Combine brass handles with linen cushions, ceramic vases, and glass accents for a layered, lived-in look.
- Balance beauty and function. Choose pieces that feel special but serve a purpose, a sculptural vase, a statement handle, or a throw that doubles as décor.
- Support local. Buying from Australian brands ensures craftsmanship, sustainable materials, and designs that suit our lifestyle and climate.
- Plan ahead. Add your favourite items to a wishlist before sales begin, many sell out fast during Black Friday weekend.
Refresh your space this season
A home refresh doesn’t need a full renovation. Sometimes, all it takes is a few carefully chosen updates, a set of new handles, a bold cushion, or a ceramic piece that makes you smile each morning.
This Black Friday 2025, curate your own home décor wishlist and create spaces that reflect your personality, warmth, and style.
