Have the holidays on your mind? I certainly do, and this year, I'm delving into decor early to avoid missing out on all my most-wanted pieces. My first stop on the seasonal quest is the mecca of all holiday decorations—and, you know, day-to-day shopping runs—Target. Think everything from deliciously scented candles to beautiful Casaluna blankets ($59) and fun finds like a wooden Advent calendar by Threshold ($30). Here, find twelve of my favorite holiday decorations from Target’s latest home arrivals.
