No, but I googled it.
Sept 2008? Totally missed that.
I remember the name but don’t remember what it had but a search online indicated it was like “In With The New” so maybe a January thing for like a year or so?

H&H should have never been rolled out company wide. Magnolia is really a southern thing. Its always getting refilled, tended to and shopped. I honestly don't expect people in NY to want Texas items but Houston loves it because we love them.
I’m in Austin, it didn’t go over as well as we thought but I remember my leaders spazzing out because it had to be 100% complete because they feared a visit from anyone from the show since it was so close. Of course my store didn’t have a complete set since we weren’t a home innovation store
 
this isn't an H&H thing specifically, but I always have to lol at how sterile and uninviting the brand photos for home decor make rooms look. There's always too much of one color, or arranged in a way that looks busy and bland at the same time. I've been in lots of homes in several different tax brackets from working class all the way up to independently wealthy, and nobody, at any time in all history has ever decorated their living room the way the catalogs and showrooms do. Are interior designers actually from Earth, or just visiting?
 
Funny how some things practically fly out the door like crazy (that designer from Palm Beach with flamingoes on everything was a hit) and other things (all the H&H stuff) just sit there and take up space. Maybe it's because I live in a northern state where Palm Beach seems exotic?
No, it's because they like things that make them dream about the place that will be their final resting place once they retire and move down here.
 
So I've decided that some of the Opalhouse stuff isn't bad. Emphasis on some. Cool stoneware mugs: 200-01-4061 and 200-01-4062.

Not sure what tf they were thinking with this quilt color: 060-15-3451. Looks like pee.

OH is vastly more popular, I will say that much. I was pushing it yesterday and some of it got grabbed out of my hands by guests. That has literally never happened with H&H.
 
Anyone elses home aisle constantly littered with broken H&H product because it literally gets bumped and shatters and we have to sweep it at least once a week. Not more than 3 times a week so far but it has been ridiculous. Also the styro in some of these products chips off at any attempt to remove it from the box. Creates a headache of a mess. Also fuck where they put it on our main racetrack. Got moms with baskets and strollers blocking a large portion of where we need to go to stock products and they literally are oblivious to it.

H&H was being bought off our flats the first few days out of repack boxes. We couldn't unload it fast enough. Depends on region and other stuff I think. They haven't set Opal for us and for some weird reason my ETLs and STL are not stressing this brand as much. They're more excited for the new softlines brands which seems like a mistake on their part. Since I know our Home aisle in the backroom is a mess with Opal merch atm I will stress it's sales myself even though I am a regular TM. Get that shit out of my backroom. LOL

Ahhh...... don't ya' just love the entitled faux-riche Mom's ????? Nothing matters to them, but their Starbucks and their phone call..... while they allow their offspring, Juniper and Greystone, to touch all the H&H product, hence breaking it all. ( and.....leaving their nasty cake-pop sticks and empty Starbuck cups in the Galvenized containers.)

***No worries, Your Highness...... I'm here to clean up after you and your heirs. ***

Hunter merch, for it's demographic.....

Needs more tie dye.

that's an affirmative Ghostrider, the aisle is full (of broken shit)

the location on the racetrack means lots of unsupervised kids like to go full demolition mode on it. Had a kid the other day that picked up a stoneware plate and tried to balance it on one of the kitchen scales, and it slid off and crashed to the floor. #rekt

How about "Jaydyn/Aidyn/Kaydyn/Graydyn/Braydyn/Haydyn/Paydyn/Traydyn" for names of their crotch-spawn. White women must be stopped.

Jackson, Chloe, Belladonna, Chase/Chaz, Rutherford, Honor, Paige, Peyton, Dayton, Grant, Lauren, Ashton, Riker, etc.
And these are the same people who deride others for ethnic-sounding names because nothing sounds more ethnic than New England/Old Money.
 
It's simple: Higher profit margin on apparel.

Target's whole thing is "style" though and home decor like Opalhouse and Hearth and Hand fall under that.

Their ETLs and STL *need* to be stressing new brand launches.
 
H&H does pretty well at my store. It's slowed down but it was crazy popular when it first launched.

Belladonna is a porn name.

I can't think of any lamp shades that would make that freaking tolerable to look at.
it looks like it belongs underwater.
