Alison frequently visits the Peaceful Valley Furniture store in Strasburg, PA, one of their three locations (the others are in Intercourse, PA, and the Green Dragon Market in Ephrata, PA). The Strasburg location, with its beautiful home decor store, has been a treasure trove for Alison's decorating projects post-remodel. Although Peaceful Valley Furniture is known for its Amish craftsmanship and traditional or rustic styles, Alison was delighted to discover a diverse range of decor options that perfectly complement her mid-century modern farmhouse aesthetic. "I found a great variety of styles in their decor store," Alison shares, "which made it easy to find pieces that fit my vision."
Beautiful Home Interiors, located in Strasburg, PA, is a delightful store connected to Agape Cafe. If you've ever enjoyed a meal at Agape Cafe, you may already be familiar with this charming shop. Although small in size, Beautiful Home Interiors boasts a wonderful collection of decor items and an impressive array of plants. Their stock predominantly features neutral tones, making it easy to mix and match with various items and styles. The store offers a range of decor that leans towards mid-century modern, bohemian, and modern aesthetics. "Breakfast at Agape followed by shopping at Beautiful Home, accessible directly from inside the cafe, makes for a great little outing!"
Carriage House Furnishings, located in Intercourse, PA, specializes in rustic and farmhouse-style decor. The store is filled with unique items and features charming vignettes of handcrafted furniture. "It's a charming spot to shop for decor," Alison shares, "and it's conveniently located next to Kitchen Kettle Village and other great shops, making it easy to spend a whole day shopping in the area."
Hobby Lobby, located on Fruitville Pike in Lancaster, PA, is a treasure trove for all things home decor and crafts. This store offers a vast array of products, from seasonal decorations and wall art to furniture and DIY supplies. One of the standout features of Hobby Lobby is its weekly sales and discounts, making it easy to find high-quality items at great prices. Whether you're looking for the perfect accent piece to complete a room or materials for your next creative project, Hobby Lobby has something for every taste and style. Its extensive selection ensures you'll find pieces that fit seamlessly into your decor, making it a favorite for Tim.
Kitchen Kettle Village in Intercourse, PA, offers a unique shopping experience with over 40 local shops in an outdoor village setting. The variety of stores includes everything from homemade foods and local crafts to boutique clothing and home decor. It's a delightful place to explore, with each shop offering its own charm and specialty products. As Tim puts it, "You never know what you're going to find and if you don’t find anything you like, the journey is always enjoyable." This makes Kitchen Kettle Village a perfect destination for a day of leisurely shopping and discovery.
Target is a go-to destination for stylish and affordable home decor. Their home section offers a wide range of items, from chic furniture and trendy accessories to seasonal decorations and unique finds. Whether you're updating a room or completely redecorating, Target's extensive selection caters to various tastes and styles. With frequently updated collections and collaborations with top designers, you'll always find something new and exciting. Marsha loves shopping at Target for home decor because it offers reasonably priced, good options that fit her budget and style.
Madison loves mixing locally made pieces with big-box finds and the occasional vintage treasure hunt. One of her favorite sources is Welsh Mountain Candles, whose products you can spot throughout local markets like Artisan Mill, Prussian Street Arcade, Urban Souther, Bird-in-Hand Artisan Village, and The Mint Leaf. She loves that you can find everything from beautifully crafted candles to cozy throw blankets, vases, wall décor, and seasonal pieces — in fact, much of her own décor comes from there.
For everyday finds, Madison enjoys browsing Target, especially the Magnolia and Studio McGee collections for stylish pillows, bedding, lighting, and wall décor. It’s also a go-to for baskets and cute storage solutions that balance function and style.
And when she’s in the mood for a little adventure, Madison heads to Goodwill. She loves the thrill of discovering unique glassware, plates, vintage frames, baskets, and even furniture pieces that can be refinished and given new life — proof that great design inspiration can come from anywhere.
Alison admits she often gravitates toward the bigger, familiar stores — but that doesn’t mean she can’t spot a great find. Her go-to stops are Hobby Lobby and HomeGoods, where she loves the variety and the thrill of discovering something unexpected.
At Hobby Lobby, she’s especially drawn to the ever-changing sales, the expansive artwork selection, and (her personal favorite) the Christmas section.
At HomeGoods, Alison enjoys browsing the beautiful pottery and vases, but ceramic plant pots are what she’s usually on the hunt for — along with the occasional faux florals so realistic they’ve even fooled her mom, an avid gardener.
While home décor shopping isn’t exactly Matt’s go-to hobby, he does have one favorite stop that always catches his eye: Olde Brick Lighting, a locally family-owned business that crafts beautifully retro-inspired light fixtures. Matt appreciates their quality craftsmanship and unique pieces — especially when a well-chosen light can elevate a space with character and warmth. Even if décor isn’t his passion, he’s always happy to point you toward standout local spots like this one.
Cocalico Creek, located off Lincoln Highway in Lancaster, PA, is a charming store known for its farmhouse yet modern style, offering a beautiful selection of home decor items.
