Kicking things off are the Nanoleaf Elements light-up wall panels, which are currently seeing a nice discount at Best Buy. A seven-piece kit of the hexagon-shaped panels is $50 off right now, bringing them down to $250. If you want to go beyond seven, you can opt for a three-panel expansion kit for $80 (saving you $20). These panels are customizable, too, and you can connect up to 22 of them in one contiguous pattern.

You may be familiar with the colorful Nanoleaf panels due to their popularity with Twitch streamers and YouTubers, but the Elements promise a more refined look with their wood styling and white illumination, which ranges from cool to warm tones. When turned off, their subtle aesthetic still complements a room while looking less like light panels that have gone out.
