Luxe for Less: Amber Interiors

May 12, 2021 | By Jenna Sue Favorite Finds

Now that the cat is out of the bag about our new house, l can finally start sharing all of the exciting plans and designs I’ve been dreaming up for each space!

Where do you even begin with a project this size? For me, it all starts with gathering as much inspiration as possible, which will naturally guide the style direction. Pinterest has been my biggest source of this lately, and I’ve found myself pinning every photo from one designer in particular—Amber Interiors.

Client What’s the Story Spanish Glory

I’d be surprised if anyone reading this hasn’t seen her work, or her Shoppe where the sells many of the high end/custom pieces you’ll find in her clients homes. Her style is impeccable, and it’s also so far out of my budget—especially for an investment property/rental. But I’m determined not to sacrifice style so I’ve spent hours hunting down look-a-like pieces at a more reasonable price point. 

Client What’s the Story Spanish Glory

If you’re reading this, I know you also appreciate the effortless laid-back luxe look and want to achieve it on a budget. Well friends, I’m here today to share what I’ve found! We have a whole house to furnish so I’ve been saving a ton of links for potential candidates to use in my designs. These all fit the ‘Amber Interiors’ aesthetic, and they all happen to be Amazon finds (that’s where I do most of my shopping these days, but I’d love to do more roundups from other stores if you want to see more!)

Client What’s the Story Spanish Glory

Amazon seems to have the most extensive selection online (which also makes it more time consuming to sort through) and I spent a few days sourcing a wide range of products—including an assortment of furniture which I’ve separated into its own list.

Without further ado, here are my ‘luxe for less’ furniture finds in the Amber Interiors signature style (you can tap on the item to shop, or find them listed below):

leather stool Vintage reproduction rug rattan cabinet concrete table dining table antique white cabinet swivel bar stool metal display cabinet carved wood cabinet textured floor cushion MCM armchair striped ottoman rustic wood bench wishbone dining chair

1. Leather Stool / 2. Vintage reproduction rug / 3. Rattan cabinet / 4. Concreted drum table / 5. 9′ dining table / 6. Antique white cabinet / 7. Swivel bar stool / 8. Metal display cabinet / 9. Carved wood sideboard / 10. Melange floor cushion / 11. MCM armchair / 12. Striped ottoman / 13. Rustic wood bench / 14. Wishbone dining chair

That rug is truly one of the best dupes out there—the Loloi power loomed rugs are modeled after real vintage carpets for an extremely authentic look, and this one in particular incorporates the blue and brick tones Amber Interiors is known for (for a fraction of the cost!)

We have the dining table above in our Poolside Palms (in white) and it has held up beautifully to renters. This large, solid wood table was hands down the best budget option I found in this size, and I’m eyeing it again (in wood) for our Spanish BnB. (update: of course, as soon as I posted this the price increased! Keep an eye out for it to go back down to $509 shipped, or here’s a nice similar alternative).

Shoppe sells this wishbone dining chair for $540, but you can find them all over Amazon in different color combinations for much less. Here’s another in light oak, and it looks super sleek here in black too.

And now onto my favorite part—accessories! Below you’ll find a roundup of ‘luxe for less’ finds from textiles, to kitchen, lighting and décor (you can tap on the item to shop, or find them listed below):

black plaid throw bone bead strand round wood pedestal stoneware pitcher antique arched mirror landscape painting lumbar pillow boucle concrete table lamp pinch pleat linen curtains 24 pillow denim pillow marble pedestal denim fringe throw tea towels stonewashed pillow rattan tray gray wood serve bowl footed planter woven pendant light preserved gypsophila

1. Black plaid throw / 2. Bone bead strand / 3. Round wood pedestal / 4. Stoneware pitcher / 5. Antique arched mirror / 6. Landscape painting / 7. 16×26″ bouclé lumbar pillow / 8. Concrete table lamp (similar here) / 9. Pinch pleat linen curtains / 10. 22″ ivory/blue pillow / 11. 20″ denim pillow / 12. Marble pedestal bowl / 13. Denim fringe throw / 14. Tea towels / 15. 24″ stonewashed pillow / 16. Rattan tray / 17. Gray wood serve bowl / 18. Footed planter / 19. Woven pendant light / 20. Preserved gypsophila

This antique-style arched gold mirror is a total steal—I bought it last year and displayed it above our fireplace for the holidays (it’s often out of stock though and there’s only a few left, so don’t wait if you want it!)

christmas mantel garland

It has since been replaced with a painting and I’m excited about the idea of using it in one of the bathrooms in our Spanish BnB—just like Amber Interiors did with a similar mirror here:

I found a ton of ‘luxe for less’ pillows in my latest search and couldn’t fit them all in this list—I think it might be time for a dedicated pillow roundup soon! I’ve linked a few favorites that stood out (pro tip: you can also use the 24″ square and 16×36″ lumbar on your bed).

Did anything on these lists catch your eye? Is there something you’ve been searching for that you haven’t found yet? Let me know in the comments and I’ll keep my eyes peeled! I have a lot of rooms to shop for and a lot of deals to find.

Next week I’ll be sharing our design plans for the backyard (assuming they’re ready in time, that’s a big maybe…) Until then, you can stay up to date by following along on Instagram. Happy week!

      I could study the photos from that project all day long! I think that is my favorite project of hers too <3

    Stunning! Put so many items in my Amazon cart! Looking for a slipcovered sofa similar to the one (white) featured on Amber Interior Designs. Any suggestions?
    Thanks!

      I’m so glad it was helpful! Check out this sofa roundup I posted a while back: https://www.jennasuedesign.com/2019/11/linen-slipcovered-sofas-under-2k-roundup/

    I love the light color brick floors in the Amber Interiors bathroom picture. Any idea what they are and how to find them?

    Thanks.

    • Jenna Sue says

      I’m not sure of the exact product she used, but I’ve used a similar brick and you can find the link in this post: https://www.jennasuedesign.com/2017/03/upstairs-bathroom-cottage-house-flip-reveal/

    Omgosh! Sooo many good finds!! Never knew Amazon have soo many good things!

    • Jenna Sue says

      May 12, 2021 at 2:40 pm

      They’ve got almost everything! I just wish their search function had more filters to make it easier to sort through it all :O

  5. Clarissa says

    May 12, 2021 at 2:22 pm

    It’s like you saw my google history! I only wish these products were available on Amazon UK.

    • Jenna Sue says

      May 12, 2021 at 2:39 pm

      Oh noooo! That’s a bummer. We are pretty spoiled in the US with shopping options 🙂

  6. Chelsea says

    May 12, 2021 at 1:41 pm

    I love this style too! We just bought a home that has vaulted/beamed ceilings throughout and Amber Interiors is my go-to inspiration as well. Thank you for pulling these cost-effective options together for us all. Wondering — have you had any luck finding a reasonably-priced sofa that could pass for an Amber Interiors knock-off?

    • Jenna Sue says

      May 12, 2021 at 2:35 pm

      Ahhh lucky you! Beams really make all the difference. I’m sure it will look gorgeous!

      I did a roundup of budget sofas a while back (including the one I bought for our living room) — check it out if you haven’t yet! https://www.jennasuedesign.com/2019/11/linen-slipcovered-sofas-under-2k-roundup/

        Thank you for the link! I’ve considered the IKEA Farlov sofa with a linen slipcover from Bemz. Are you familiar with Bemz?

        • Jenna Sue says

          May 13, 2021 at 1:12 pm

          I have not had experience with Bemz, unfortunately!

    This is a dream post for those that love Amber’ style but don’t have the $$. I’d love to see what you have planned for bedrooms!

    • Jenna Sue says

      May 12, 2021 at 2:34 pm

      Thank you, Bethany! The bedroom designs will probably come later but I’m always on the lookout for ideas. Excited to share what I come up with!

    Will you be using thrifted items as well? I love to see what you do with the thrifted items you find!

    • Jenna Sue says

      May 12, 2021 at 2:31 pm

      Yes, I would love to incorporate thrifted/vintage pieces (and DIY items) as well! It has been quite a while since I’ve had time to thrift but I’m hoping to make more time for it this year.

    May 12, 2021 at 12:27 pm

    Thank you! I have so many pins from ambers designs for my own Spanish style home. This was so helpful. I can’t wait to see what you do!!

    • Jenna Sue says

      May 12, 2021 at 2:30 pm

      Awesome, I’m so glad to hear that Sarah!

    A fantastic, inspiring, gorgeous post! I loved every shared image and visiting Amber’s site. Wow, so much eye candy and all right up my alley.

    Can’t wait to see the magic you’ll work on the new home!

    • Jenna Sue says

      Thank you, Dawn! Every one of her projects is a wealth of inspiration, and her work never gets old!

    I could cry. I’ve been doing this same activity for what feels like forever during our recent move. Thank you for saving me countless hours.?

    • Jenna Sue says

      May 12, 2021 at 2:28 pm

      Aww yay! We’re in the same boat and I know how exhausting it can be trying to shop for so many things at once. I’m glad this was helpful!

  14. Carol says

    May 12, 2021 at 11:21 am

    Could you please list the correct link for the rustic wood bench. It sends to the wrong site.

    • Jenna Sue says

      May 12, 2021 at 2:28 pm

      Sorry about that Carol, it should be working now!

    Thank you Jenna! This is one of my many favorite posts of yours. I too love Ambers design style. Thanks for your countless hours of research you have shared on great alternatives on a budget. Love love love!!!

    • Jenna Sue says

      May 12, 2021 at 11:18 am

      Thank you Sherry, I’m so glad you like the finds! It takes time to sort through it all but it’s a fun task and definitely worthwhile! 😉
