Target Style
Lately Target has been killing it when it comes to the home decor! Between the Threshold and the Nate Berkus line I can't get enough! Target is always a go-to source for me when it comes to home styling pieces (among other things... but seriously, who doesn't walk into Target for mouthwash and leave spending $100?!) Here are a few of my favorite pieces sure to give your coffee table or bookcase a style boost!

Easy Coffee Table Styling
Beautiful pictures of coffee table stylings have been all over Pinterest lately. They can look complicated but I promise they're not and you probably have most of the things you need around the house. Here's my step by step to styling your coffee table.
First- start with a tray that's about a 1/2 to a 1/3 the size of your table. Think of this as your "play pen" for your accessories. It keeps them grouped so they don't look like they're floating in space. I chose this basket style tray from Homegoods but I like these trays here, here, and here.
Next, grab some beautiful books or magazines you have around the house. I used my Nate Berkus book as well as a Philadelphia magazine that I keep meaning to read. Make sure the books you choose are pretty large so they take up half of the tray.
Next I added a candle to the tray. Either a candle, picture frame or a little figurine will do. It's adding some height to your collection and a change up in the size of the flat books and tray.
Last step- add some flowers. I used a low faux-flower arrangement at Homegoods. I love to have real flowers but I'm not too good at keeping them alive so these faux peonies do the trick. Place them on top of the books to add even more height to your arrangement. I also put some coasters in the tray for practical reasons ;-)

And there you have it! Super easy and you probably already have a lot of these things around your house.
