Off the Rack: Easter Decor at Walmart

Easter decor has arrived at Walmart.
After I checked out the spring fashions at Walmart, we swung by the Easter decor aisle which is already brimming with candies, baskets, and every bunny/carrot/egg themed item you could possibly imagine. I liked the old-timey decor items with a vintage, homemade feel the best, like a little twigs and raffia rabbit, or a door sign that said 'Happy Easter' in brown and orange burlap.

My kids gravitated towards the items in the brightest, most unnatural neon colors imaginable, but somehow I managed to convince them that organic fruit snacks were a better shopping reward than Trolls (the movie) plastic Easter eggs (because we all think of Trolls when we think of Easter...?). Score one for Mom! Check out my pics below to see if there's anything cute you'll be adding to your spring festivities - most items were priced between just $3 and $15.

The Look for Less: West Elm Pineapple Lamp

Add a stylish pineapple lamp to your decor from West Elm or the Better Homes and Gardens collection at Walmart (yes, Walmart!)
Pineapples are more popular than ever in fashion and home decor. They symbolize hospitality, they're exotic yet familiar, and they resemble works of art with their geometric good-looks and spiky coifs.

While browsing the Better Homes and Gardens collection at Walmart.com, I stumbled upon a chic pineapple lamp that would blend in with just about any room style - and it's under $30!

Meanwhile West Elm offers a gorgeous counterpart with a touch of gold, and it's now 20% off making it a great buy, too. Which would you pick?

The Look: West Elm Pineapple Lamp, $159 (Try code SAVE20 to get 20% off your order)

For Less: Better Homes and Gardens Pineapple Lamp, $27.66 at walmart.com

Off the Rack: Modern by Dwell Magazine, New Artist Series and More Home Decor Highlights at Target

Threshold's winter collection is on sale at Target now.
If you caught my Instagram Stories on Monday, you probably saw my exhaustive trip through the aisles of Target as I documented everything I was loving (which was basically the entire store). What can I say, the kids were being especially well behaved, so this Mama got to browse to her heart's content.

Here are some highlights to check out on your next Target trip (may it be blessed with quiet children or even better, may your only companion be a Starbucks latte): The Inspirational New Year's Collection by Threshold (reminds me of ban.do and reminds Target-Addict of Kate Spade); the new Sugar Paper (see the lookbook here); new art by Leah Duncan, Kelly Ventura, Heidi Schweigert and Claudia Pearson; and of course new on-sale offerings from Threshold (my boys wanted me to buy this Oryx Head Wall Decor, but all I bought was this practical yet stylish tassel hand towel).

I also spotted an end cap with some items from the new Modern by Dwell Magazine collection. Nothing really caught my eye but if you love CB2 or Design Within Reach, you'll love this line.
