Home Decor and Furniture Retailers I Love! 🥰

In this video I go over some of my personal favourite home decor retailers! Sundays, Rove Concepts, Article, CB2 and Etsy provide some of the best value in furniture and reflect my personal style. I also highlight where these different home decor retailers are strong and weak because no retailer ever could (or should!) meet all of your expectations because it's fun to shop around and curate things from many places.

Please, please, PLEASE make a video on how to use industrial design in home without it looking like a coffee shop. I love the rustic vibe of wood, leather and metal but I feel I'll end up with a coffee shop living room lol

The trick is to not go for one style. Mix it up, have fun. Don’t buy all your stuff from one store (as he mentioned in the video). Think “industrial look with versatility”

I would say to add to what the others have said above, introduce some imperfections. A true industrial warehouse would have chipped paint and dented objects. A few imperfect things will go a long way to adding authenticity.

I'd love this as well, too, because that's what I'm going for. I think money has hampered me though from going too cliche with the look, lol. My apartment layout is as far from industrial as it gets. I have light tan walls that I cannot paint and wallpaper on matte paint will rip it, so I can't use that to create a different background color. My issue is being careful I don't lean too much into gray and black. My couch and ottoman are a dark gray with wood trim and black legs (the Ethan couch/sectional and ottoman from Castlry) and my curtains are plain light gray (I might be changing them to something patterned. I got them at $10 a panel from an putlet store). The TV stand is a wide black one I got from Overstock that can fit a 90" TV, but I only have a 55, so I just put a few candles and my diffuser on it. And I found this pully-system/movie reel kind of lamp from Overstock as well, but it too is black (actually, it's supposed to be a very dark bronze, but if it looks black...it's black 😅). I've not decorated the back of the couch yet, but I have settled on doing a twist of the cliche black and white city photos with instead doing some colorful futuristic cityscapes from an artist I found on Displate. I figured the metal posters would be interesting and as he uses a lot of neon colors, it would draw the eye towards them and break up the monotony. If I get the money, I'd also like to change out the boob light ceiling fan, but the woodgrain on it pairs okay with the woodgrain on the couch, so I'm not in a rush to take it down. In short, I agree with everyone else that mixing up other decor styles helps. My (temporary) accent pillows came from Big Lots because that's what I can afford right now and my throw blanket is an orange crocheted piece I got from Target. Both look more modern than industrial, but I like that design style, too.

I think a big tip here is to bring in real seasonal things from nature - actual flowers, greenery, pumpkins, pinecones, pine boughs, etc. Death to tacky plastic decor!
I used to work for crate and barrel, obviously very much under the same parent company as cb2, and I have to say, best reltail/service job I had. I literally had to quit because I didn't want to do customer service long term and I kept getting raises - which meant that if I stayed much longer I wouldn't be able to afford to leave. How many retail employees can say that's their issue? Loved crate, cried the day I left, best company I have worked for so far. 💖
Thank you for including Canadian accessibility! Not all Canadian creators bother to do so. I loved learning all the new stores I should look at for buying furniture for my space!
Still waiting for a Modern Victorian video! Hopefully I'm not alone in wanting this lol.

SAME! Lol I took this as a “don’t bother going to these retailers, you’ll hate everything” video. Lololol I need more embellishment and richness to the colours and designs. I’m often left with cheaper items just cuz it’s so hard to find items that aren’t antiques or too on theme.
I just wanted to add a comment about the veneer furniture. I used to be very adamant about avoiding veneer after going through all the typical experiences people have with cheap furniture peeling or chipping, but after having 2 pieces of wood furniture custom made by carpenters now and exploring others I have really come around to understand veneer's role in furniture. There's 2 times when veneer is actually what you want. 1.) Weight. Solid wood is sooooooo heavy. You're limited in what you can do due to the weight. For example, table leg style and placement is more limited if your tabletop is extremely heavy. Or you may need to have something like a solid metal frame all the way around to support the table instead of just legs and then the table becomes unable to flat pack and cannot move through some hallways, elevators etc. 2.) Some woods that are really beautiful to look at are not that strong and don't support weight well. So if you had something like a bookshelf you wouldn't want solid wood from a species that is going to sag in the middle after books sit on it for a couple years. Also materials like ply handle bending much better (this is why stuff like the Eames lounge is veneer). I think where the veneer goes wrong is because consumers MOSTLY experience it with very cheap furniture so the underlying structural material is horrible like Ikea with their chippy flakey MDF and cardboard inside.
I never heard of Sundays until this video. It is the exact style I was looking for. Great furniture at reasonable price. Thanks for sharing ❤

I have a really thorough review on one of their sofas if it would be helpful. There are not many reviews on them and their products are amazing!
I've been doing a lot more shopping at antique stores lately. My home design is traditional, but with comfortable fabrics and lighter, beachy colors to make sure nothing is too precious. I can find a lot of items that feel "authentic" to our traditional style at an antique store, and because the items are reused, I'm not worried about something being broken (3 kids live here too). Win win!

Congrats on buying your own home.
Article seemed to get very big very quickly, and I wouldn't be surprised if all their youtube sponsorships played a big role in that. There was a period (I think in the last 1-2 years?) where it seemed like most KZreadrs I watched that did a lot of room makeover content were getting free furniture from Article in like every video.
Thank you, thank you, thank you! We live in a semi-rural area, well away from any decent (quality and style at a fair price) furniture/ decor retailers, so learning about new (to me) options is wonderful! I too am a huge fan of supporting domestic Etsy artisans over chain retailers selling mass-produced imports.

Hi Nick, always love your channel. I was so surprised you named Rove Concept as one of your favorite retailers. Recently, I ordered dining chairs n was not satisfied...To return the chairs, the customer must pay for shipping themselves. To my dismay it cost me $800 to return the chairs. (Cost due to weight and distance) 😑
Thank you for bringing up the point that people should not shop at only one retailer for furniture. I am constantly telling clients to not buy a furniture suite for their bedrooms or living rooms.
I also adore EQ3. I love the japandi/scandi vibes with bright pops of colour. And I usually find it pretty affordable (they've got a nice little sale section too)
Another retailer to consider is Room and Board. A mix of contemporary and classic mid century designs.
I love shopping for decor at Etsy. I found a mirror and some wall art.
I used to mix up CB2 with AllModern (which I think is practically a scam since it's just the Wayfair storefront where they mark up the prices), and I'm so glad CB2 gets your endorsement (and that I've stopped confusing them) because I have so much on my wish list from them. I especially love their take on modern Art Deco.
I have so much success on Etsy. I’ve bought rugs and pillow covers. It seems like all textiles come from Turkey these days.
I'm so glad I"m passed the time of Acquiring I have amassed a collection that now has to be curated. the Answer of course is Seasonal Refresh. Rotate out things designated to certain seasons, serving pieces, dishware, table linens, vases, room scents, ... your home can be new again with forgotten things in that cabinet.
I'm English country traditional (still love your videos though) and am so glad you mentioned Etsy. Great place for pillow covers from Lee Jofa, Colefax & Fowler, Michael S. Smith and other very high-end designers.

Thanks for the tip about Sundays. I've never heard of them but currently shopping their sofas now!
I have mixed feelings about veneer because solid wood furniture tends to be better quality but scratches easily. In contrast, veneer typically seems much more scratch-resistant, but if it gets damaged, like good luck fixing that.
I walk by Sundays all the time and drool at their items!
He said, “ I think is really solid when talking about a company who sells all wood products”!
Time to do a blog about about solid wood construction and the differences between inexpensive furniture built on particleboard or pine then veneered and high end furniture of hardwood construction inlaid with fine choice veneers.
I’ve been looking for a side board for over a year and finally found one when I looked up Sundays. I ordered the Easy Edge side board as it’s exactly what I was looking for. Thanks for the suggestions as I’ve never heard of Sundays before.
Love all the brands Nick Recommended. I also would add Room& Board: plenty of customizable solid wood options, good for larger home as I find most places don't make very large furnitures, mostly make in USA so we get to support local craftsmanship. Vermont Wood Studio is another place to shop for solid wood pieces. Just don't get a bedroom set from them LOL. I love Bo Concept but it is toooo expensive in the US.
Love your videos, how you don't like stuff, at the same time you tell people "go for it if you like"
I came to your channel specifically to learn about retailers that Canadians can access. So glad you did this, and I'm hoping you'll do a video on smaller or local retailers in Canada.
I love that CB2 takes risks. I would buy some of those riskier pieces. I think the fuzzy chair fits perfectly with the design aesthetic of the younger crowd of have made their money in social media. I've seen pieces like that in their home tour videos on KZread.
LOVE that you included Etsy in this list! There are so many unique pieces sold here, so you can get a one of a kind piece. [Not a cheat in my eyes.] Also, you're supporting small businesses when you shop Etsy. Yes, I know they have widened that to other vendors, but you can still find a lot of small businesses that are doing wonderful things.
Any chance you could do similar videos about retailers for other styles? Or maybe retailers that sell kid/family products that you don’t hate? I know your feelings on kid furniture, but I’d love to see something that isn’t beige or total junk (which seem to be the only options for us breeders lol).

Nick, I feel I must inform you on the use of veneer. I noticed in several videos, you seem to paint wood veneer in a negative light. The reality is that veneer dies not automatically cheapen the quality of wood products. 1) Certain designs are impossible or ill-advised with solid wood and veneer is better suited 2) veneer can make products more stable as they are much less prone to wood movement, and 3) some veneers are quite expensive. Veneer does not mean low quality!

I think in some video of yours, you were saying places are getting more stylish with office furniture (because of covid). Ive been having trouble finding office furniture that is both supportive/useful for work, but also looks good. Im wondering if youd have a video on that, would be so helpful to us remote wfh folks ^_^!
Sundays is on the list now. We used article, rove, cb2, joybird & burrow for individual pieces.
Nobody asked, but I like Room and Board and Blu Dot, also. Room and Board is heavy on real wood and quality sofas. Blu Dot is adventurous in the modern space with quality pieces. On that fur chair at CB2 that you don’t like, I think it is a great piece for mountain and ski locales, where it would not look funky at all, so niche market there.

Hey Nick!

I have an Article dining table and chairs and I'm in the Southeast USA. I bought it several years ago when they were much smaller and had their former name.
I would love to see a video on how to or where to go to design and furnish a dorm room. Maybe you could do a series of videos of designing for kids from nursery to adolescent to teen to university? Or, suggest some designers that have done similar videos?
I’m planning on buying our next couch from Article. I love their clean lines and mid century vibe
I love most of these suggestions and will definitely look into Sundays, but I am surprised by Rove Concepts. I looked into ordering from them, but the countless horror stories ordering from them, the lack of communication after ordering, and the horrible returns situations just made me look to another company. They have nice designs, but I couldn't trust them enough to spend that type of money.
My favorite is CB2. I also like Article, West Elm and All Modern. Thank you for your videos, I have enjoyed all of them. You have given me some great ideas on redecorating my home.
As someone who loves Scandi, and has spent a long time curating my house into that style, I love your suggestions. I think your content appeals to me because we se to have similar tastes haha.
Hey Nick really great video!!! I've been seeing Rove Concepts pop up when I'm searching for items so good to know it's Canadian based, but this Sundays place I'm definitely going to have to check out. You're inspiring me to visit Vancouver!!!
Nick, I love your videos and respect your style. My personal style is traditional (I love old stuff, anything older than but not including mid-century) and I'm wondering if you could do a video on where to find elegant old style decor/furniture? I'm not sure such a place exists outside of antique shops but I thought I'd ask lol.
You had me at japandi.....Scandinavian Japandi.... I have an Article couch and about 75% of my light fixtures from CB2. I've also become a fan of Burrow - who I have for 2 beds and a table in my home. In addition to their incredible focus and business model, the cat Easter eggs laced throughout their website to call out the focus on pet-proof furniture really did it for me. They deserve love.
I really like CB2…. Was there yesterday at their Dallas store & bought a throw & pillow .
Love finding unusual stuff on Etsy. Even for DIY ideas, patterns or supplies.

I've gotten lots of lovely hand made or small business items on Etsy ❤️. I also found some great vintage pieces.
I can tell instantly when someone purchases all their furniture + decor pieces from 1 shop!
Yes!!!! I LOVE CB2 home decor. Their price point is VERY competitive and you can FEEL the quality of their items if you go into store. (Which I wish they had more of). But I bought some travertine candle pillars a few months back. You can literally use them as a weapon. The weight of their items is fantastic! There’s nothing worse than seeing an item, picking it up and it weighs nothing. I like having that heavy luxe feel to them.
I love this video and was excited that some of the options are actually available here in Vancouver. Unfortunately, I've already checked out those retailers and their style does not fit my home. I need something slightly more traditional. Mid-century modern would look so, so very wrong in my new house. I guess I will continue to look, and to continue to live in an empty house ;-)
I have a lot of things from Crate & Barrel and CB2, probably because the outlet is close. But my favorite place to go for one of a kind furniture etc. is a consignment store called Dulce in the design district of Dallas. And I agree, Etsy is wonderful. I'm at the point where I have to get rid of something if I want to buy anything, but I'm going to have to take a look at Sundays.
I love all the mentioned retailers but also wanted to give a shout out to Urban Barn (not sure if they are Ontario only or national). Their style leans more toward what Pottery Barn offers but they are more affordable and have excellent customer service. I like their wood furniture, sofas, rugs, window coverings and the sales are quite good.
9:48 I have the Hugo 🛋 sectional sofa from Rove concepts. And with my membership points I bought the little side table basically I just paid shipping that’s made out of black marble.

I'm glad to hear Etsy on your list. I recently purchased a wall hanging (Macrame) from an artisan from Turkey on the site. Even more impressive, he shipped the 5' wide wood mounted piece to Hawaii (to be hung in my Vacation Rental). That's not something mainstream retailers do.
