This Target Décor Looks Expensive, But It’s All Under $100

A chic home on a budget.

Have you ever walked into a Target to get one thing and walked out with an entire cart full? *sheepishly raises hand.* And it doesn’t matter if my cart is real or virtual, I always leave with more than I went in for. It’s impossible not to. And while I love their non-toxic cleaning line and their healthy groceries brand, it’s their cheap home décor section that has me hooked thanks to their incredible collaborations.

Who else is obsessed with the Hearth & Hand With Magnolia line or the modern Threshold x Studio McGee collaboration? It’s safe to say, Target is making big moves right now in the design department. And the best part? It’s all affordable. Because we believe good style shouldn’t cost you, from your wardrobe to your home. Besides, it’s all about the high/low mix—a sprinkling of vintage with new trend-driven pieces, and designer splurges are what makes a house feel like a home with soul. It’s all about how you style them, juxtaposing slick surfaces of your new pieces against the patina of the old.

So, if you’re looking to refresh your home for spring or any time for that matter, then keep reading for our favorite cheap home décor from Target that looks expensive but is under $100. You’re welcome.
