Black White & Gold Target Finds to Decorate Your Home

I am a HUGE fan of Target. Like, obsessed. Shopping at Target is a hobby of mine. Can anyone else relate? :) I try to stick to online shopping at Target, because this is usually how it goes in-store:

I especially love Target's home furnishings & decor because they have so many affordable, on-trend items. I redesigned this office with almost all products from Target! No one should sacrifice great style when on a budget, and that’s why Target is one of my first stops when hunting for new furnishings. I also have the Target REDcard which saves me 5% on every purchase AND I get free 2-day shipping. How amazing is that?

Right now, Target has some great 4th of July sales offering up to 30% off home decor. Since my design style isn’t really “Red White & Blue” I’ve decided to put my own spin on it and round up some of my favorite “Black White & Gold” furnishings & decor from Target. I hope you enjoy, and don't forget to subscribe to see more posts like this!

Before & After: Boho Girls Room

I'm sharing another fun before & after post of a little girl's room I worked on! This was a really fun project because we used a lot of colors & textures, and designed an adorable gallery wall. 

Come tour the transformation!
 

Below is a "before" picture of the room. There were already some great furnishings and accessories to work with, but we wanted to give the room a finished, cohesive look with a new style.

After:

How cute are the initial letters and flowers above the crib? I bet any little girl would love these!

After:

We designed a cozy reading nook using a bunch of pillows with different patterns & textures. We were going for a Bohemian/Hippie look with tons of color!

After:

When you first walked into the room, there was a HUGE empty wall leading into the room. There was a lot of space to cover, so we went with a fun gallery wall with a mix of prints and accent pieces!

My client and I were so happy and excited about the room transformation! Click here to see the full gallery of this project.

How to Start a Room Redesign

So you’ve made the decision to give your room a fresh look - this is exciting! But where should you start? Getting started can be an overwhelming process, but the below steps will give you the basics you need to start tackling your project.

Step 1: Assess the area and answer a few questions:

• What is this room used for?

• How do you want this room to feel?

• What do you love about this space, and what do you want to change?

• Which items in the room do you want to incorporate into the redesign?

Decide what new items you want for the redesign:

• Furniture

• Artwork

• Rugs

• Window Treatments

• Pillows & Accessories

• Lighting

• Paint

Once you’ve answered the questions above and determined what you want to include in your redesign, the fun part starts!

Step 2: Find Inspiration

You may have some ideas for your redesign, or you may have no idea what sort of look & feel you want. Either way, looking for inspiration can spark some fun, creative ideas that you would have never thought of! I love using Pinterest to find inspiration and save ideas that I love. You can start with a broad search such as “modern office design” or “traditional living room.” Once you have a better idea of your style, you can search for specific keywords such as “white lacquer desk” or “blue chevron rug.” When you find ideas that you love, save them to a specific Pinterest board for your room. Once you have several images saved, go through your board and remove any pins that don’t work with your overall theme. This will help you narrow in on a specific style and look for your redesign.

Step 3: Start Shopping

Now that you have an idea of what you want to include in your redesign, and know what sort of style you are going for, you can start shopping! I find it easiest to shop both online & in-stores depending on what you are shopping for. For larger pieces such as headboards, coffee tables or desks, purchasing online and having the item shipped to you is usually much easier than purchasing in-store and then finding a way to get it home. For smaller accents such as pillows, lamps or decorative items, I like to purchase these items in-store so I can see what they look like in person. Plus they’re much easier to transport back home with you!
