It’s finally soaking-up-sunshine, sipping-sweet-tea, relaxing-in-the-hammock season—ahhhh. And we’re working on just the thing to make your favorite spaces feel equally dreamy: a treasure trove of new summery gems from Target that’ll refresh your home, apartment or dorm fast, without breaking the bank. Before these new, only-at-Target collections debut in July, we’re giving you a sneak peek—and three ways to brighten up any summer decor. 
Bring the outdoors in—and skip the dirty work
A surefire way to infuse a light, airy vibe: greenery, of course. To keep your look as practical and effortless as it is chic, go faux. Give a great bar cart—like this metal, wood and leather classic—an affordable boost with a mix of faux plants (we’re loving the trailing fern—and it’s just $19.99). Liven up your office space or bathroom with faux greenery in sleek pots, rattan plant stands and colorful pops of décor. Or create a sunny windowsill garden with a mix of faux ferns, succulents, fronds and more—no green thumb, gardening gloves or water can required.
Layer your way to maximalist perfection
Love the gorgeous boho trend, but not quite sure how to pull it off in your space? It’s all about mixing, matching and layering bold hues, soft textures and striking details. Arrange opulent, gold-accented wall art with bird-shaped décor on an empty shelf or sill. Bedeck the bed in multiple prints and velvet and fur oversized pillows, or stack amazing, jewel-toned pillows (just 34.99!) on the floor for a cozy lounging space.
Set the (patio) scene
Of course, your outdoor space deserves a little summer love, too! It’s as easy as choosing a few faves from Opalhouse’s eclectic green and gold outdoor collection, from ornate woven rugs and macramé pillows to beveled gold accent tables. (Everything’s designed to withstand the elements). Then add some ambiance with a string of rose gold lights or leopard print lanterns, sit back and unwind.
Can’t wait to get started? Our midsummer collections launch in early July at Target stores and on Target.com.
