Preparation
Who says big-box stores in suburban malls can’t be filled with stylish items? Target has always been our go-to for everything from cute lamps to practical bathmats and the store just added a new in-house line to its already highly covetable roster: the classic and stylish Threshold; cool and modern Project 62; and farmhouse chic Hearth & Hand with Magnolia.
This summer, it introduces Made By Design, a thoughtfully produced collection of understated (read: chic) and functional essentials that feel inspired by a Scandinavian aesthetic. The line-featuring more than 750 items across kitchen, storage, bedding, bath, and furniture-is perfect for minimalists and those wanting some calm and order in their home.
Speaking of order, Made By Design was created with smart solutions in mind. Vessels have built-in strainers and pour spouts; cookware features silicone-covered handles to stay cool; and soap dispensers twist off at the widest part so pouring in a new supply of solution is (finally!) mess-free.
Excited? You don’t have to wait too much longer. Made By Design, which ranges in price from $1 to $260, will hit stores and Target.com on June 23. While you’re creating your shopping list, here what’s on ours.
Step one to an organized home: serenity and order in your entryway. This mix-and-match cubby will help get you there.
