Swooning Over the Spring Hearth & Hand Collection Is Making Me Feel Normal Right Now
Don’t ask me why, but Target has been one of my happy places for 15 years. My husband doesn’t understand it and sometimes neither do I, but all I know is I really miss running in for toothpaste and leaving with a new mug, towel and cute sweater. That’s currently out of the question due to social distancing, but the other night I started browsing the spring Hearth & Hand collection and all the cute Joanna Gaines goodies made me so happy (for a few minutes, I almost felt like a global pandemic wasn’t happening). If you want a lovely distraction and maybe some new kitchen and home goodies—here’s a look at some of my favorites.
Ceramic Cake Stand Large
Buy It: $24.99, Target.com
This cake stand looks much more expensive than it actually is. It would be perfect for birthday party goodies, or heck, even some slices of quarantine banana bread.
Wood Coaster Set
Buy It: $12.99, Target.com
Two-toned wood. Table protection. These coasters make my heart go pitter patter. They feel like the perfect modern twist on a very classic design.
Stoneware Serving Bowl
Buy It: $24.99, Target.com
Do salads taste better when served out of pretty light blue bowls? I guess there’s only one way to find out. This color also comes in mugs, bowls and a serving platter and I can’t get enough of the barely there robin’s egg blue.
Hello Sign
Buy It: $9.99, Target.com
This cheery sign feels like it needs a home above your coffee station, by your front door or in your home office.
Faux Rosemary Plant
Buy It: $4.99, Target.com
I’m really hoping that I can turn my black thumb greenish, as I get ready to plant vegetables and herbs outside. In the meantime, this plant will definitely make it through and brighten up my work-from-home space.
Soap Pump White
Buy It: $9.99, Target.com
This soap dispenser screams modern farmhouse (thank you, Joanna Gaines), and makes the constant hand washing a little more cheerful. (P.S. here's the right way to wash your hands.)
16" Clock Silver Green
Buy It: $29.99, Target.com
If you’re like me and can’t remember what day it is, let alone what time, this cheerful clock belongs on your wall. It would look perfect in a kitchen or wherever you need to glance at the time without also checking your phone (and getting sucked into Instagram or the news again).
