If you were planning a full spring shopping spree, Nate Berkus has a different idea: don’t. The designer is firmly anti-trend, and instead of piling on new decor, he’s focused on editing, refining, and investing in pieces that actually last.
- Nate Berkus says don’t focus on trends for spring or summer 2026.
- The key pieces to buy are pieces you’ll use for the rest of your life, including a quality sofa, candlestick holders, and a gilded mirror.
- Don’t skimp on tabletop decor! It’s a great time to invest in napkin rings, stemware, and more.
- Nate’s Chessmen cookie board goes on sale 10 am ET on April 22 and April 29.
But that doesn’t mean your home can’t feel fresh for the season! From vintage finds to one tabletop essential he swears instantly elevates any gathering, the interior designer is sharing exactly what’s worth buying now—and what to skip.
And in a rare exception to his “buy less” mindset, he’s teamed up with Pepperidge Farm to create something that blends entertaining with timeless design: a limited-edition Chessmen Cookie Board inspired by his love of classic patterns.
Fans can visit ChessmenCookieBoard.com to pre-order the exclusive Pepperidge Farm x Nate Berkus Chessmen Cookie Board for $60 via two limited drops, while supplies last. Drops go live at 10 am ET on April 22 and April 29.
