5. Autbye Gameboy iPhone Cases for iPhone 11

10. Lisa Frank Peekaboo Mug
Lisa Frank was huge in the ’90s; you could buy stickers, notebooks, clothing and even home décor. The brand attempted a couple of comebacks in the early aughts, but they couldn’t reach that same level of frenzied “must-havedness” of the 90s. They’re not as big as they once were, and their offerings are not as varied as they were in their heyday. But you can find Lisa Frank-designed mugs that are dishwasher and microwave safe. We’re just not sure how much longer the brand will be around.
11. JNCO Twin Cannon Relaxed Fit 26″ Jean
Ultra-wide jeans, aka JNCOs, were a must for any raver or club kid in the ’90s. JNCO, which stands for “Judge None Choose One,” is back in business, and these tentlike wide jeans are available for purchase without the need for a TARDIS.
12. Original Brand Lava Lamp

14. Forever21 Faux Fur Throw Pillow

15. COZAYH 2-Piece Modern Farmhouse Living Room Coffee Table Set
Since we’re talking about home decor, do you know what one significant home interior design trend was in the 1990s? It was Shabby Chic. And like many trends, it’s becoming popular again. This two-piece farmhouse coffee table set could have come from a living room back then. The larger of the two tables measures 31.5 by 31.5 by 14.2 inches, and the smaller one measures 15.7 by 15.7 by 18.4 inches.
16. Greenstell 2-Tier End Accent Table
Wicker was used in that decade for indoor, not outdoor furniture. One could buy a wicker living room set as well as individual pieces.

17. Hysunland Macrame Curtain Panel
Whether they were beaded or macrame, Doorway curtains were trendy in the 1950s, 1960s, then faded away until the 1990s revived them. Instead of installing them in a doorway, why not place them behind the bed, so it becomes a headboard. Hysunland’s macrame panel measures 37.5 by 82 inches.
