Joanna Gaines’ new Target drop has everything you need for a stylish Easter weekend outdoors – I’m shopping her affordable pieces to prep for summer

If you've over-invited this Easter, you're going to want some extra seating options. This chic Cabana stripe floor cushion is great for throwing down on the lawn for lounging and can be taken on a picnic or to the beach.

Joanna styled her summer tablescape with plenty of vibrant plaids and an array of natural textures like this 100% jute placemat that's been finished with a pretty pale blue, scalloped crochet trim for a lovely touch to the table.

I love creating pockets of light outside to illuminate all the hard work I've put into trying to keep plants alive, and this little stake light can be popped into planters, flower beds, or patio pots for some extra ambiance.

Whether at home or off on an adventure, a picnic basket is a springtime must-have. Lined in the collection's signature plaid print with vibrant handles and a buckle close, this has ample space and style for al fresco dining.

As I've mentioned, this collection features this lovely multi-color plaid pattern throughout, and these napkins are a great way to introduce its timeless print. You can also shop the matching Melamine Plates or pick up the Stripe & Plaid Paper Plates for picnics.

It's not often that outdoor kids' games and activities look this chic. I love this blue and green plaid kite with a cute red border and multi-colored bows. It's fun and doesn't ruin your garden aesthetic.

Of course, the drop has plenty of pretty pillows, including this modern plaid finished with a bold scalloped edge, which is available in pink too. It's outdoor suitable, and I'd love to see it styled with the Cool Tone Plaid Fringe Throw Blanket on a reading chair outdoors.

Another cute planter or pot upgrade is these stake lanterns that are full of vintage charm and look like little birdhouses. Fill with pillar candles (LED or solar ones will make life easier!) to make your evenings spent outdoors even cozier.

Among the lovely accessories is this handy, sandy-colored ottoman that has been elevated with a stripe and green edging. Perfect for lounging, it is weather-, UV-, and water-resistant, and you can shop the matching Armless Outdoor Patio Cushion Chair, too.

There are lots of vintage-style rattan serving pieces in this collection, including the Woven Paper Wrapped Metal Ice Bucket, but I'm personally after this drink dispenser for serving up cold beverages and cocktails at my backyard BBQs.

A stand-out piece from the collection is this light blue portable projector that Joanna designed to help you make the most of your summer nights. It can project up to four meters with a 1280 x 720 picture resolution, and I'd recommend the Tripod Manual Projector Screen from the collection too.

There are too many great lawn games to choose from, but this 10-piece ball set comes complete with a zippered, monogrammed bag depicting the Heart & Hand branding. Great for family gatherings, beach trips, or BBQ days.
