Hi friends.  I hope everyone had a great Easter and a relaxing weekend.  We spent most of the weekend at home installing wallpaper on the ceiling of my office.  Boy was that a job! It’s going to take me shoulders a couple of days recuperate but the pain is was worth it because I am absolutely in love with the ceiling.  You can catch a sneak peek over on Instagram.

Besides the wallpaper, I’m also excited that April is here and that April 8th is fast approaching.  Why you ask? Because my birthday is just a week away and there’s a really exciting product launch is happening at Target this Sunday.

Target’s newest home collection, Opalhouse launches in stores and online on April 8th and man are there some gorgeous pieces.

The new collection is right up my alley with bold colors, lush textures and handcrafted details.  According to Target, there are more than 1,300 pieces in the collection spanning bedding, bath, décor, tabletop and furniture.  Target’s design team traveled far and wide to cities like Aix-en-Provence, Lisbon, Paris and Mallorca to gather inspiration to create a collection of authentically inspired, eclectic pieces. And along with all of the amazing items, one of the best thing about the collection is that most items are under $30!!

As soon as the email announcing the launch landed in my inbox, I did some virtual shopping and created my shopping list.  Want to see which OPALHOUSE items I’m going to be stalking?

This Green Striped Tasseled Rug would be a fun accent in a bathroom or doorway.  It’s available in 3 sizes starting at just $19.99.

I can’t believe the price ($79.99) of this gorgeous Tole Chandelier.  It’s the prefect size to hang over a bathtub or in a closet.

I can’t even begin to tell you how much I love the glass candle holders in the collection.  The green glass candleholder is also available in orange and is only $14.99.  The pink glass taper holder is $12.99 and a shorter teal taper holder, also $12.99.

How cute is this rattan elephant basket.  It could be used to hold magazines, remotes or as a plant basket.  $24.99

I definitely don’t need another tray in my life but I just might have to pull the trigger on this handcrafted rattan tray.  It’s just $24.99 and would make an ideal coffee table accent or desk tray.

The Opalhouse pillow collection is going to create some major havoc to my already out of control pillow collection.There are so many great styles and the colors are so vibrant and pretty.  And there are some really great black and white and natural designs for those of you that aren’t into bold and bright.

Round Pleated Velvet Pillow–$26.99–6 colors //   Tufted Diamond Skinny Lumbar Pillow–$19.99 //  Pleated Yellow Velvet Lumbar Pillow–$12.99  //  Velvet Fringe Pillow–$24.99–3 colors //  Green Velvet Medallion Pillow–$24.99

I could go on and on about the chairs in the Opalhouse collection. If you’re in the market for accent chairs you’ll definitely want to check them all out.  This rattan arm-chair caught my eye and I just love the silhouette and lines on it.  It would also be easy to have a cushion made for it to add even more style. $149.99

I’m always on the hunt for small side table and love the look of this hexagon wood table.  It’s hard to believe that its only $79.99 especially with the white marble top.

Round coffee tables are getting lots of love right now in the design world.  This round coffee table is actually part of a set–it comes with a matching side table and the set is only $199.99.  Don’t love the black–it’s also available in natural.

I really can’t believe that this caned double-door chest is only $159.99.  I’ve seen similar styles for double and triple the price.    This piece would be ideal for a small entryway, hallway landing or to hold linens in a bedroom.

You all know I love pretty tableware.  There’s lots in the Opalhouse collection so if you’re like me, hold on to your wallet.

First up on my shopping list are these green canary melamine plates.  The individual plates are just $1.99 each but this design is also available as part of an assorted set of salad plates ($7.96) and dinner plates ($11.96).  Perfect of outdoor entertaining.

Aren’t these wood planters cool?  I love the rustic yet refined they are.  There are three sizes with prices from $19.99 to $59.99.   The planters can be used indoors and outdoors.  And I think they would make great serving vessels for chips and snacks or wine in the larger size.

I can never pass up a pretty dinner napkin.  These navy blue cloth napkins have a mini pom pom trim around edge making them great for dressy or causal entertaining.  $2.50 each and also available in orange.

I’m thinking of using this mango wood carved tray as a platform to hold items on my kitchen counter.  It would also be a great riser for a plant.  $19.99

My two favorite colors in a dinner plate–its doesn’t get much better than that.  This scalloped edge melamine plate is just $2.99 and is designed to mix and match with other designs in the line.

 

I adore the color combination of this linen table runner.  The teal and Chartreuse color combo is so refreshing and just $17.99.

I love adding a fun summer weight throw blanket over my chairs during the warm months and this woven stripe throw is perfect for that.  There’s a teal and green color combo too that is just beautiful.  $29.99.

It’s hard to resist a kitchen towel with pom poms.  I’m loving the sunny yellow color of this one and wouldn’t hesitate to also use it as a dinner napkin.  $3.00–also available in pink with navy pom poms.

It’s hard to find embellished sheets with a little pizzazz. This set features a bohemian inspired black print along the top edge. Sets start at $26.99.

And finally, this velvet tufted stitch quilt just might be my favorite piece in the entire collection.  The color and stitching detail are just so yummy.  The full/queen $79.99 and there are 6 amazing colors to pick from including the beautiful emerald green.
