We have to hand it to Target, they are brilliant at collaborating with product lines, and they are even more astute to do so for a limited time only.  They have announced a collaboration with Marimekko, the Finnish manufacturer of bold cotton prints.  The line will be introduced into Target stores in April.MG_2486

Remember, we wrote about the design manufacturer two months ago,  recalling the early days of Design Research in Cambridge, the innovative store that was a leader in introducing  Marimekko to the United States.

Target announced its collaboration with the design house for a 200-piece collection for summer.  One of the most delightful products is a child’s tent done in bold Marimekko fabric.  It makes us want one for someone, even for one of our dogs!  And almost all of the products are under $100!  What a fun and inexpensive way to brighten up our home and our wardrobe:
