What you shopped most in April was a bellwether that you’re ready to host, redecorate, and spend way more time outside. A few giveaways: the striped hammocks you scooped up, the dinner table you loved, and a pair of compliment-worthy rugs that found their way into your carts. We also saw an especially design-y rental shower upgrade make your list as well as a few budget buys like $9 oven mitts and a $20 IKEA throw (power nap, anyone?). Ahead, dig into the products you loved last month.
