The weather is warming up which can only mean one thing: Memorial Day weekend is around the corner. Signifying the start of BBQ season, the last Monday of May is a time for honoring the holiday, bringing together loved ones, and (let’s face it) scrolling through the thousands of items on offer in the Memorial Day sales.
The holiday doesn’t technically start until Monday, May 27, but you don’t have to wait for some of the sales – the best discounts are already kicking off.
Pottery Barn, best loved for their high-end and very high-quality furnishings and decor, has broken tradition and is starting their sale early this weekend with plenty of promos that make it easy to invest in well-made, pieces at a more palatable price.
If you’re feeling a little overwhelmed by the Memorial Day home sales, you’re not alone. But do not fret, we do this for a living. To help sweeten the deal, I’ve spent hours sifting through the best Memorial Day furniture sales, decor discounts, and outdoor patio furniture deals to bring you an edit of the pieces that are really worth it.
In my opinion, as a former fashion shopping editor turned interior editor, these are the 18 best buys in the Pottery Barn Memorial Day early bird offers.
