I went to Target around 11:30 and was pleasantly surprised at how much product they still had. Apparently my Target had a lot of back stock and they were busy restocking while I was there. I bought 8 of the cream dessert plates with the black x's The lambs ear wreath a couple ornaments The Good Morning Handsome mug The Merry and Bright Mug And the black metal measuring cups I love everything I bought! I just noticed those plates with the x’s and I want them! I hope my target will have them when I go by there later this week.

I think the revamp of the clothing lines is pretty good, too. (Not a huge fan of the Knox Rose line, but the rest is nice). Beautiful pink velvet skirts, tops, nice flannel, good sweaters, fun fur vests, lots of cool things. Skinny jeans are on trend so it makes sense that there are lots of them, but my Target had boot cut and flares as well. I haven't had a chance to check out the new women's line but I've been very impressed with the selection and quality of the Cat & Jack line for kids.

I have been "over" Target for a long time. I find their "designers" to be nothing more than the what you can find in any other big box retailer, and generally more expensive than I can get at the mall. Their clothing lines have gone off the rails as far as my body type, age, and profession. They have very few plus-size options (last time I checked we had a whopping grand total of SIX, count them SIX, round racks of plus size clothes. And most of them were obviously geared toward a much younger crowd rather than a mature woman looking for business casual clothing. Even their jeans were all "skinny" style (which to me is such an oxymoron for plus-size clothing, but that's another story LOL). It is sooooo disappointing! I used to purchase almost my entire teaching wardrobe from Target 20 years ago. I bought their Cherokee brand pants and tops that looked great, fit great, and looked good after multiple washings. Based on what I have seen from the items my daughters have bought, their current lines do not have the same quality. So every once in while I will look at Target's "latest and greatest" thinking that maybe, just maybe, this time they will get it right. And every time, I am disappointed. If it does turn out to be something decent (and I think this promotion actually includes some very nice items), the price isn't anything great and the variety is pretty much the same as what I can get elsewhere at a similar or lower price. Nope, won't be lining up at Target for this one (although it is probably too late anyway because it has already been purchased by the ebayers!). I've kinda thought the same thing. The whole Lily Pulitzer line really torked me off. Not a thing left within an hour and I couldn't even begin to see it online. But this seems fine. Well stocked, reasonably prices, decent quality. I got up about 5 am and I had everything I wanted loaded in my "likes" and just moved it into my cart. Checked out without an issue and it's on its way. My beef is that it takes a week to get here, but I'm just spoiled with Amazon Prime. I'll hit my Target tomorrow and see what is left. There are a few items I'd like to fondle before I buy. I'm still looking at those star candle holders! I got the cocoa play set, red letters to Santa box, the salt cellar, the washi tape, the butter dish, and the spoon rest, which is just the right shape for my stove. I'm good with the plaid--most of what they had in the plaid will be worn out in 5 years time, so it's ok.

I love the imperfect stoneware! And the little nesting houses were cute. And the GATHER napkin rings. I may have to go to Target and look at some of it in person. But they are all the same, so is it really imperfect? Ha! I know! I think that's why I can handle them. Uniform in their imperfection!

Same here about the Cat & Jack, and more importantly my kid likes it and will actually wear it without a fight which is a huge plus. A couple months ago I needed a dressier dark pink T to wear to a funeral and was surprised to actually find one there that fit well, draped nicely, looked good and didn’t break the bank. Before that I hadn’t purchased any clothing for myself other than basic underwear at Target in over a decade.

I bought the galvanized wood metal shelves and 2 of the black house bud vases. We are doing some remodeling and these fit in perfectly with what we are doing. I'm going to put them in my redone powder room. The target near me didn't have everything. I always forget that that is a smaller Target. Went down the road 5 miles to the larger one and they had lots more stuff. I liked the "house" display at the larger store.

Very drab colors...too much of a farmhouse look for my taste. I had gotten tired of their show as the finished decor was looking the same every time.

I went late afternoon and surprised to see that there was still a large selection. I have lots of navy and gray so the colors don’t really work for my decor, but I have to say, the things I handled were heavy and not at all cheaply made. Like a previous poster mentioned, that Santa mailbox was a much better quality than I expected. I just bought a candle, but hoping that the next line matches my colors better and I’ll buy more.

Man you guys are a tough crowd! Holy critical! I read all of the comments here before looking at the link, and thought the collection must be boring, cheap-looking, and over-priced. I was pleasantly surpised. Classy, simple, coordinating pieces that are inviting. I don't think she's over-rated at all; I can't believe people are complaining that she had a particular style. Haha! That is hilarious to me. Yes, she has a style. It's not your style. Totally fine! Move on! Maybe Pioneer Woman's bright dishes and Fiesta Ware is more your style? I don't get my panties in a twist thinking, yikes, too much going on there, too many colors clashing! Why can't Pioneer Woman offer something a little more nuetral? Instead I think, huh, not my style. And that's that. Oh peas, never change. Exactly.. I love PW stuff AND I love Hearth and Home... I can't decide WHAT to do.. hahahaha.. but yeah I do like all the neutrals.. because with all the color I have going on, neutrals will fit just right...

I love the line. I bought a lantern and gift wrap with store pick up. There's a few other things I want to look at when I'm there to get my order. I will definitely check them out regularly when I stop at Target.

I want one of those "rustic" dinner plates. Because it has a bit of a lip on it and I can use it when I make jewelry, as a beading tray. Or when I use any other little craft item that tends to roll around and get away from me.

Thank you! Yes I am disappointed. Not wahat I was expecting. I am the most indecisive person, it will take 10 years for me to settle on pillows. Jen Look on etsy. Get pillow covers and you can change them whenever you feel like it. I use the inserts from ikea. They have down and fiber fill ones. I went to target last night for something else so I looked. It didn’t look as though anything was sold out. I bought the herringbone gift wrap. I feel like I can use it for most occasions. I also bought the door mat because I actually need one. I love black and white palette with color mixed in.

Okay, gang, just a point of clarification: It's Hearth & HAND (not Home). I wonder if they knew that would be confusing!
I ordered online yesterday, but waited until today to go check it out in person. My closest Target was well-stocked and organized. While it was just a row with end caps (no cool house frame!), it seems like most of the items were there and they were restocking. I had never watched much of the show, but was drawn to the understated elegance (it's not what I would call corny over-the-top farmhouse, more simple and classic).
I just have to let you know that I was amazed at the quality for the price point. Beautiful finishes, leather, cotton, heavy and large items. Before I knew it, I was filling up my cart. Whoopsie. If you haven't checked it out in person and are on the fence, it would be worth a trip just to see in person. Also, the "wonky" dishes are actually quite subtle in my opinion. I bought one mismatched set of plates and bowls just to use for display or to hold jewelry because they are so pretty.

I love it all.
I love her, she's not over rated at all, and deserves the attention/adoration she gets.
I also love Pioneer Woman for my kitchen, so this will be a nice change of pace.
Love these women, doing their thing.

Love these women, doing their thing. I can't agree more. I am thrilled to see ordinary women making their mark in the world and even though Joanna's style is far more mine than PW's, I salute them both! They are likable, non-drama, ladies who had a great idea and are making it work! And I also salute Joanna for making sure that what she presents is quality--especially for the price point.

I didn’t see anything that I liked. I was a huge fan of th e show in the beginning, then Chip started getting on my nerves, so I quit watching. Are they going to have a year-around line too. I don’t care for their Christmas stuff at all.

Beautiful pink velvet skirts, tops, nice flannel, good sweaters, fun fur vests, lots of cool things. Skinny jeans are on trend so it makes sense that there are lots of them, but my Target had boot cut and flares as well. That Cherokee line was so dowdy. I was glad to see it go. I buy at Target for the trend, though; I don't expect those clothes to last forever. If I want high quality work pieces like suiting, I don't really shop at Target. For that kind of thing I'd invest more and go to J.Crew, Banana Republic, White House/Black Market, etc. I’m not looking for suit-like clothing, just nice, comfortable khakis or dress slacks that do not show my butt crack LOL.

After that he either grew on me or I got better at ignoring him.

It all seems so blah and sad. Where is the pop of color for fun? ^^^ this is my first impression, too. I won't be rushing the store to buy any of it. I could have sworn that sometimes she uses color in the houses when she decorates them... I'm surprised by the lack of color in this stuff. (and I don't think of myself as a *COLOR* type of decorator... but maybe it's just the Southwest? the light is brighter here, so color is a natural extension of that. Cream and black would be waaaay too blah and would look unnatural in our house.)

I don’t care for their Christmas stuff at all. From what I read, it's going to stay and more items will be introduced. I don't mind Chip, but then again, I'm married to a "Chip". He's the clown and I roll my eyes. We are quite opposite in terms of our mannerisms, much like Chip and Joanna. Someone once said about their similar marriage: "He needed an audience, and I needed to be entertained". I have always been able to relate to that.

The stuff is much better in real life then online, that is for sure. That being said, I still hate the wonky dishes! I saw a metal mailbox at our local craft store that was almost identical to the one at Target, but it was just a mailbox, not a letter to Santa one- other than that it seemed the same and was only 19.99. I did pick up the canvas and leather bag. It is really nice and only 35.00, I need to try to figure out how to attach a magnetic clasp to keep it shut though, I too often toss my bags in the car with gleeful abandon and end up spilling stuff if the bag doesn't have a closure.

I heard a couple months ago about this line but it wasn't on my radar. Last week when I was in Target I saw the black draped area and thought nothing of it! Lol Sunday morning I was up early and online and happened to be on the Target website. I found a couple things I liked and didn't think to check out when it had come out so when I went back several hours later it was all out of stock. I went back online this morning and the items I wanted were back in stock. I got the nailhead stocking holders and the gather napkin rings.

I checked out the line in person today at my Target, and they had plenty of it in stock. I agree that it looks like the quality is there, especially considering the prices. It's still a little too dark for me, though.

I looked at some of it online. We have a lot of dark blue and green in our house, so the green vase I saw would work, but we have white accents and dishes so the cream color would not. I'm not a fan of galvanized metal and it would not go with our decor at all. I did like the Letters to Santa mailbox and would consider that if it were in red - we decorate for Christmas with red and white as the focus.
