Winnow the selection by searching items under $50, $20, and even $10; plus, if you have any questions, they respond to e-mails within 24 hours.

Amenity Home
Done up in subdued shades and crisp floral prints, the bedding and home wares from this e-tailer—owned by friends and graphic artists Nicole Chiala and Kristina de Corpo—hardly look as if they're made in an urban metropolis like L.A. Nature plays a huge role in the duo's designs: Only organic and sustainable materials are used for luxurious-looking offerings like alpaca throws, hand-screened linen pillows, and printed wall panels made of hemp.
