With Fall comes change: dropping temps, falling leaves, and the incessant desire to cozy up on your couch with the most recent hit from Netflix. Whether it’s a new cozy blanket, some art for the wall, glassware, or knick-knacks on your shelves, one of the best home decor stores in Chicago will help you get your home vibe right. Would rather find something vintage and cool? We also have a list of thrift stores and antique shops for you to explore!
Eskell
2029 N Western Ave, Chicago, IL 60647
Eskell is a lovely home store that features everything from couches to candles. Stepping into this store, you might lose track of time as you saunter through each section to a new piece to add to your home decor collection. If you want a tip, definitely check out Eskell’s sale section. Is there anything better than finding something you love on sale? I don’t think so.
Space 519
200 E Chestnut St, Chicago, IL 60611
Space 519 is everything: a fashion boutique, a specialty food store (they have ridiculous pickled items!), a selfcare destination, and one of the best home decor stores in Chicago. Here, you can find everything from small decorations to lounge furniture. The only thing to keep in mind is to not overspend or impulse buy after a 4-espresso-shot-latte from their in-house restaurant The Lunchroom!
Studio 6F
1834 W North Ave, Chicago, IL 60622
Studio 6F and founder/principal designer Gil Melott have been recognized for an unapologetic approach to seamlessly blending disparate textures and periods into a well-curated story for homes and public spaces. Named Best Design Gallery by Modern Luxury magazine, Studio 6F has continued to grow and curate its presence in Chicago as well as across the globe. Three times larger than the previous studio in Logan Square, the new 5,000 square-foot space is a range of spontaneous colors imbued with a fresh perspective, new, unconfined artistry, and ad hoc experimentation of textures.
Neighborly
4710 N Lincoln Ave, Chicago, IL 60625
Neighborly will definitely get you in the mood for Fall. Here, among the year-round home decor, you can find spooky pieces to start celebrating Halloween before October even starts! Cozy up under a new plaid blanket while you take in the homey scent of a new flickering candle. Neighborly also supports independent makers and ethical production. It can’t get better than that.
Humboldt House
1045 N California Ave, Chicago, IL 60622
Looking for a piece to aid you on your continued journey to the perfect self-care routine? Check out Humboldt House. This shop, rooted in creativity and community support, came to be when owner Claire combined her love of Humboldt Park and art, creating an excellent spot to find the perfect Fall mug, jewelry dish, and hand-woven rug.
Neybir
2246 W Grand Ave, Chicago, IL 60612
Come on, splurge on yourself and your space! I am a firm believer that money can buy happiness, and if not happiness, then a really cool art piece for your home. Neybir offers a limited, uniquely curated selection of decor that will definitely turn your house into a warm and welcoming home.
Inside Home
1942 W Chicago Ave, Chicago, IL 60622
From kitchen tables to coffee table accents, Inside Home is another great stop in the city to refresh your place for a changing season! It doesn’t matter if you come here without knowing what you want, because the piece that’s meant for you will surely catch your eye as you roam around the store, taking in all the possibility of what your home can look like.
Wilderhouse
1339 N Damen Ave, Chicago, IL 60622
Serenity and warmth are what comes to mind when thinking of Wilderhouse. The things you’ll find here take inspiration from the landscape of the Southwest, mimicking the land’s colors and terrain. As it continues to get colder in Chicago, warm up your space with the feelings of your next Californian vacation.
