20 Decor Items From Target You Can Always Rely On
Whether you're browsing online or walking through a store, it's almost impossible to leave Target with just the one thing you were originally shopping for. That's because Target is filled with affordable — and sometimes even viral — home decor that's irresistible. For shoppers who have been Target fanatics for decades, the store has helped furnish their homes, because they appreciate quality, designer-inspired products, but don't want to pay a hefty price. Target's home decor section has become a popular destination for finding pretty and practical solutions to problems you may not know you have.
A few things make Target's home decor stand out. From its balance of style and simplicity, Target's home decor doesn't have to try too hard. It feels polished and intentional while blending effortlessly into your current aesthetic. If you're searching for classic home decor trends that stand the test of time, yes, Target has that too. A textured throw blanket or a candle in an amber jar can give your space a cozier look, while peel-and-stick wallpaper offers a big change in hours without having a full-blown remodel. Target's woven storage baskets can move effortlessly from your entryway into your living room, while ceramic vases with faux stems can act as a pretty accessory on top of your coffee table. Although trends come and go, there are certain home decor categories from Target you can always rely on for offering endless inspiration and making your space your own.
Decorative storage baskets
The secret weapon to a stylish home? Decorative storage baskets. They're great for hiding clutter, but Target's selection makes it even better for showing off on shelves, inside cabinets, or placed under an entryway table. Target's woven storage containers are neutral and can go with pretty much any decor style. Fill them with blankets, remote controls, toys, and anything else you want to easily grab but keep tucked away when you're not using them.
Framed artwork and prints
Framed art can add personality to a room, giving it a focal point without overwhelming the space. Whether you pick one of Target's abstract prints, vintage canvases, or hand-drawn art, they're an easy way to add color, mood, and your own style. You can combine different sizes for a collected aesthetic or sit a piece or two on a table for more subtlety. If you're a Joanna Gaines fan, there are cool ways to decorate gallery walls with a Magnolia-inspired look.
Throw blankets
Target's throw blankets make any area of your home feel warmer and cozier. Drape one over the side of your sofa, spread it across the end of your bed, or keep one in a basket so you can easily grab it. Faux fur, chunky knit, and cozy cashmere-like throw blankets are an effortless way to change up a room's colors while also adding a smidge of texture.
Wall lamps
Wall lamps are perfect for adding light while also setting the scene. You can use them to show off your art, brighten a reading nook, or create a glow that gives off a calming vibe. Target's lamps feature all sorts of styles, from colorful metal to textured rattan wall lamps. You can easily find one to fit your decor style. Plus, they have a wide selection of ones that don't require an electrician to install.
Artificial trees
Target's artificial trees never disappoint. With options like tall floor plants and small side table designs, each tree adds height, greenery, and a little oomph to a room. The realistic textures and decorative planters are perfect for filling empty corners in living rooms, bedrooms, and hallways. Since they stay green all year, you can set them up once and enjoy their consistent aesthetic — without the upkeep.
Scented candles
If there's one thing Target consistently gets right, it's its candle selection. They come in a plethora of fragrances and scents, whether for special holidays or different seasons. Some of the candles come in textured glass or brass containers that will make you want to keep them long after the candles have melted. Then there are fun wax figurals, including apple pie shapes, gingerbread houses, and a two-wick old-time radio you may never want to light.
Peel-and-stick wallpaper
Target's peel-and-stick wallpaper comes in a slew of colors, different textures, and unique designs, making it suitable for every room in your home. And if you get bored of looking at it after a while, it's super easy to remove and start over again. As a tip, if you're having problems getting your wallpaper to lie flat, the trick to smoothing out creases could lie with your hair tools.
Picture frames
Target's array of picture frames lets you show off your moments in a simple but incredibly statement-making way. From metal and wood frames to resin and acrylic options, picking out one that matches your decor is super easy. Plus, they come in multiple sizes, colors, and styles to create a whole collage of memories with your favorite people, and without breaking the bank.
Curtains and rods
The right curtains can set the tone for the entire space and give your windows a polished look. Target's window treatment selections range from airy, see-through fabrics to richly textured blackout curtains that give the room much more privacy. You can also find plenty of affordable hardware in a flurry of finishes to make hanging your new curtains a breeze.
Throw pillows
If you don't want to overpay for throw pillows, you should head to Target. That's because Target pillows come in pretty colors and minimalist designs, making them a quick and easy way to freshen up a room without a total home reno. You can find a collection of textured knits, fun tassels, and geometric prints in neutral tones from familiar brands like Hearth & Hand with Magnolia and Studio McGee.
Rugs of all sizes
If you want an affordable way to tie a room together with texture, color, and a cozy vibe, look no further than Target's rug aisle. They have fluffy ones for bedrooms, durable runners for hallways, and cool patterns for anywhere that needs a quick mini makeover. Target's Threshold rugs (and other Target brands) come with a one-year return policy, although the line has been praised for its quality.
Mirrors
Mirrors can make rooms look bigger, and walls feel more multidimensional. So, whether you're looking for a tall floor mirror to prop up against a wall or one to hang over the mantle, Target has them all. With so many options to pick from, the hardest part will be choosing just one. Some even give us Anthropologie vibes — without the high-end price tag that goes with these.
Clocks
Clocks add personality and function to walls, tables, and shelves. When you don't want to overpay for one, Target sells inexpensive clocks that can fit right into any room, no matter what your style. From alarm clocks to wall clocks, you can find a wide selection of designs with clean modern lines or vintage-inspired faces — some even costing less than $10.
Artificial stems
Artificial stems are one of Target's most reliable design staples because they add movement and texture to any room, without the fuss. These faux stems are so lifelike that you might forget you don't need to water them. Most can be mixed to make something simple or elaborate, and they're affordable enough to swap out with the changing seasons.
Vases
The perfect vase can spruce up overlooked corners and empty surfaces. Target sells sculptural stoneware and simple glass designs to showcase faux or real stems. With the right vase, you can add height and texture to make your space feel and look complete. Although they may look like they're high-end and cost a fortune, Target vases give you a designer aesthetic for much less.
Decorative accents
Decorative accents offer a finishing touch anywhere around the house, from shelves and mantles to tables and nooks. Target's decorative accents, like metal bookends, sculptures, bowls, and candleholders, add something extra without dominating the space. Whether you prefer bold statement-makers or minimalist designs, Target accents turn regular, ordinary areas into stylish displays filled with personality without costing an arm and a leg.
Coffee table books
Coffee table books are for more than just reading; they're the perfect way to show off your interests and make a table look better. Whether you're a fashionista, a history buff, or a collector, Target has a vast array of coffee table books that fit every lifestyle and hobby. Stack them up, pair them with candlesticks, or let one book stand alone and watch your guests instantly take notice.
Quilts
Skip the uber expensive stores like Pottery Barn when you're looking for a quality quilt and pop on over to Target. Their affordable quilts come in a slew of colors, materials, and designs to make bedrooms, chairs, or couches feel that much cozier. Quilts can bring freshness to your space, and since Target's are reasonably priced, you can alternate them if you get bored or need a change.
Wall shelves
If you're looking for a little extra storage in your bathroom, Target's wall shelves have got you covered. Or, if you want floating shelves for the living room or house-shaped shelves for a kid's room, you'll find plenty to choose from, giving any room more character and a sense of organization. Plus, the different designs make it simple and easy to add a bit of style on a budget.
String lights
Target's range of string lights never fails to impress. From lights with dangling Christmas trees to dainty fairy lights, these battery-operated gadgets add a playful vibe anywhere in your home — whether hanging from a mantle or lining a headboard. You can use them to frame your patio or even make outdoor string lights look cottagecore, but whatever aesthetic you're going for, don't skip Target's affordable options for lighting up your life.
