Everyone can benefit from a little extra cosmic bolstering now and again. Sync your fortunes with the rhythms of the universe by decorating with these four traditional touchstones of luck-infused decor.

Horseshoes

Nobody knows exactly when horseshoes became a symbol of luck and protection, but it might have something to do with the tale of Saint Dunstan. It’s said that back in the day, the devil commanded Dunstan to shoe his horse, to which Dunstan responded with the ultimate power move of shoeing the devil instead and demanding that in exchange for removing the shoe, the devil would need to leave anyone displaying a horseshoe alone. For the ultimate in “not today, Satan” luck charms, you can’t do better than one of these guys pegged above your door.

Dice

Gamblers’ kit has always been considered lucky for obvious reasons. Pilots in WWII were known to carry dice in their cockpits to give them better chances against terrible odds, and soon the tradition stuck. Although you can always reach for a set of fuzzy dice to hang over your rearview mirror, we recommend setting a few around your home to ensure that the odds are ever in your favor.

Acorns

Acorns symbolize luck and fulfilling your greatest potential, which make them a fantastic motif for goal-oriented decorators. A few acorns clustered on windowsills and mantelpieces throughout your home encourage you to become the mighty force that’s been within you all along.

Four-Leaf Clovers

As rare as they are recognizable, the four-leaf clover is the ultimate talisman for good vibes. With leaves representing success, wealth, love and health in equal measure, a four leaf clover painting, sculpture or even a framed version of the real thing (if you can find one) is sure to invite favorable fortune into your favorite space.

Good Luck!
