Decorating a home in style doesn’t always require a big budget. Increasingly, people are seeking affordable alternatives that let them renovate, enhance the functionality of their spaces or refresh small details without overspending. In Spain, the low-cost home decor market has grown, with major retailers like Carrefour and Alcampo, and even clothing chains such as Primark, expanding their home departments to become accessible options for many households.
That said, not all stores serve the same purpose, and not everything cheap delivers equal quality. The key is knowing where to buy each item, distinguishing between functional pieces, textiles, accessories and statement furniture, and choosing wisely.
And yes, IKEA is on our list, but there’s more to life than the Swedish giant. Here are some of the most interesting chains and platforms – both in-store and online – for decorating your home without overspending, while still achieving a stylish and welcoming result.
Action
Action has become one of Europe’s leading low-cost fashion and home decor retailers. Its strengths include decorative accessories, candles, picture frames, storage solutions, cushions, tableware, textiles and small, trendy items – all at very low prices. With over 100 stores across Spain and a constantly changing selection, it’s perfect for giving your home a stylish refresh on a minimal budget.
Pepco
Originally from Poland, Pepco is one of the fastest-growing low-cost chains in Spain, with over 200 stores nationwide. It offers an attractive mix of textiles, homeware, storage solutions and basic decor – all at very competitive prices. With its expanding presence, Pepco provides a genuine alternative to larger, more established chains.
Primark Home
Primark’s home collection has been steadily expanding, with a strong focus on textiles such as cushions, throws, bedding, rugs, bathroom items and small accessories. It’s a practical choice for quick updates or seasonal decorating. Available only in-store, this allows you to see the quality and colours clearly before buying.
Muy Mucho
A Spanish brand specialising in decoration, particularly decorative accessories and small pieces of furniture, with an expanding range. It isn’t as extremely low-cost as Action, Tedi or Pepco, but prices remain very affordable. From a styling perspective, it offers more “pure decor.” The brand has dozens of stores across Spanish cities and also operates an online shop.
TEDi
Originally from Germany, TEDi operates like a well-organised bazaar, with a large home goods section. It’s ideal for practical needs such as storage, organisation, small decorative items and everyday essentials. TEDi mainly sells through its physical stores, which are expanding in Spain – there are over 300 so far, with plans to reach 600 – and offers very competitive prices.
Leroy Merlin
Although best known for DIY, Leroy Merlin now offers a comprehensive home decor section. Rugs, lighting, curtains, cushions, wallpaper, paintings, mirrors, candles and accessories make it ideal for complete projects on a budget. The chain has an extensive network of stores across Spain and a fully operational online shop.
Carrefour Home
Carrefour’s home section is a practical and affordable option, expanding across most stores, with strong offerings in textiles, kitchenware, small furniture and decorative accessories. It stands out for its competitive prices and frequent special offers. Available in-store and online, it’s a convenient choice for budget-conscious shoppers.
Amazon Home
Amazon Home gathers all of Amazon’s home and decor offerings, including its own brands and third-party labels. It’s particularly strong in lighting, rugs, storage solutions, textiles, tableware and occasional furniture, all at competitive prices with a wide, varied selection. Operating exclusively online, success depends on knowing how to filter effectively to find the right quality and design.
JYSK
The Danish company is a reliable choice for functional, affordable decor with a Nordic aesthetic. It offers a wide range of decorative objects and accessories, as well as occasional furniture and larger items such as sofas, tables, chairs, beds and mattresses. The store offers frequent promotions and sales, plus there are over 140 stores across Spain and an online shop, making it easy to see and touch products before buying.
IKEA
We close this list with the Swedish giant, still the benchmark for low-cost, decorative, and functional home goods, and arguably the brand that has done most to “democratise” interior design in Spain.
Their strategy centres on DIY. Not everything is cheap or essential; in fact, they have introduced a growing mid-range selection. However, with careful choices, their basics remain excellent options. Frequent promotions, a wide variety of products and constant new arrivals make shopping rewarding. There are numerous stores across Spain and an online shop.
