When it comes to furnishing a home, hunting down the perfect pieces can be an overwhelming challenge, especially when you want to collect meaningful objects that spark true joy versus tick off the checkboxes for a perfect Instagram photo. You might also want to support small, independent interior brands with an eye for design and a story to tell, which makes the hunt even harder. Enter, the app I’ve been using to shop from: Shopify’s Shop app. As the #4 top free app on the App Store, you may already use the app to track all your purchases from brands that run their businesses on the Shopify platform. What you might not know is that it’s a creative and extremely helpful tool for finding everything you might want for your home.

Because Shop pulls in all the products from the (literal) millions of brands that run on Shopify, you can search and support tons of small businesses instead of defaulting to big box stores. You can follow shops you love and quickly search through catalogues without having to go through an entire website, which can be distracting instead of inspiring. While the app is continuing to evolve, Shop has been useful in helping me find just the right products, as I work on furnishing my first home (a story + reveal to come!).

Because there are so many shops on the app, I’ve rounded up 9 businesses powered by Shopify that you can find and shop on Shop:

Sixpenny – for sofas that are completely worth investing in

Foundry Lighting – for modern and classic fixtures to illuminate your home

Jayson Home – for a curated collection of furniture and home accents to decorate your space

Sundays – for quality furniture that won’t break the bank

Cedar and Moss – for timeless pendants and sconces that also feel fresh and contemporary

Shop Rush House – the affordable seagrass rug that is always bound to show up on your Instagram feed

Ciseal – for bentwood home accessories that look modern but are versatile enough to fit in any setting

Goodee – a one-stop destination for modern design brands
