Franklin is overflowing with home decor shops that go way beyond the ordinary, whether you crave bold statement rugs, modern farmhouse vibes, or a little vintage flair. Independent boutiques, design-minded warehouses, and treasure-filled collectives all compete to help you make your space feel unique.
Let’s get to it.
Persian Home Decor
Have you checked out Persian Home Decor in Franklin? They’ve got one of those strip-mall storefronts that feels like you walked into a high-end showroom. Their rug selection is huge. Hand-knotted Persian and Turkish rugs sit next to bold Oushak and Serapi pieces, all displayed in styled room setups.
The prices make sense since they run a wholesale model. Some rugs are a few hundred dollars, others hit mid four figures, but they’re still way cheaper than designer boutiques. Their seasonal sales look almost too good to be true…yet they really are. Shawn (aka Hamid), the owner, can tell you exactly where each rug was woven and even what kind of wool was used. He’ll walk you through colors, patterns, and design history. They offer local delivery, rug repair, cleaning services, and insurance appraisals. There’s plenty of parking and not a hint of retail snobbery, which makes it a quietly fantastic spot to shop for a statement rug.
Head Springs Depot
When you wander into downtown Franklin’s furniture scene, Head Springs Depot immediately stands out. This large warehouse-style shop, run by Jay and Seth Hall since 2010, is packed with sofas, dining sets, beds, mattresses, and every accent piece you could need. It’s like farmhouse chic crashed into a mid-century modern cocktail party, with a dash of rustic industrial thrown in.
A lot of their solid wood tables and sofas are Amish-built and fully customizable. You’ll find factory-direct prices on floor samples sitting beside made-to-order pieces. Tent sales and seasonal events only add to the savings. Free design consultations mean they’ll help you figure out exactly what works in your space. It’s a popular stop for Airbnb hosts and anyone who wants quality furniture without the boutique markup. They even carry custom rugs, lamps, and throw pillows to tie a room together.
Mercantile 1858
If you’re on the hunt for a mix of farmhouse charm and vintage finds, Mercantile 1858 has you covered. Whether you’re browsing their flagship in Arrington or the West Main Franklin location, you’ll feel like you stumbled into a friend’s impeccably styled living room. The displays blend new and vintage items—about half and half—and every corner tells a little story.
Prices range from easy $10–$50 picks to special splurges for antique lovers. You’ll spot wall art, textiles, old-school candlesticks, and their in-house candle line with custom scents. Kitchenware and planters round out the selection so you can actually live in the rooms they show. Their no-fee consignment program keeps things local and gives budding creators a platform. Since the same duo runs both shops, that friendly, hometown vibe stays consistent.
Sanctuary South
Walking into Sanctuary South feels like discovering a hidden gem in Westhaven Town Center. Instead of a wall of candles, you see cozy room vignettes that show you exactly how items work together. Think modern farmhouse with a Southern twist, plus just enough vintage and boho flair to keep it interesting.
Their price range covers everything from high-end designer lamps and furniture to small gift-worthy items. You’ll find wall art, rugs, jewelry, men’s accessories, and rotating holiday displays that change with the seasons. The mother-daughter team behind the shop is on hand to offer genuine advice, not a sales pitch. They also host monthly Give Back Days for local nonprofits and occasional wine-tasting events. It’s a well-curated spot that never feels stuffy.
Rooster Tails Custom Furniture
Rooster Tails Custom Furniture in Franklin is the kind of place you visit when your Pinterest board needs an upgrade. Housed in a spacious warehouse on Columbia Pike, this family-run shop has churned out farmhouse chic and cozy country pieces since 2002. You’ll find chunky solid-wood dining tables, custom beds, sofa bars, bird baths, and yard art that’ll have your neighbors asking questions.
New or used, local craftsmanship is the focus—and the prices won’t make your wallet panic. Want a custom sage green paint job or a special finish? They’ve got you covered. The showroom is dotted with staged vignettes so you can see how pieces fit together. The staff treats you like an old friend, even on your first visit. Good luck leaving without wanting to redo at least one room or your entire backyard.
Zula & Mac Interiors and Boutique
Believe it or not, Zula & Mac Interiors and Boutique sits right in the heart of downtown Franklin in a cluster of lovingly restored historic buildings. Every room feels like a mix of Southern charm and global flair you’d want at home. It first opened as Country Charm Mall in 1987 and then rebranded in 2017… the store is still family-run, and that personal touch shows up in every detail.
They’re famous for what locals call the best pillows in town, but that’s just the beginning. You’ll find sofas, chairs, dreamy lighting options, wall art, area rugs, and fun little home accents. There’s even a full floral room stacked with realistic faux blooms. Prices cover everything from impulse-friendly picks to high-end custom upholstery. Styles range from playful boho to farmhouse and mid-century modern. Out back, a modern farmhouse style outbuilding holds patio and garden finds.
Services include style advice, in-home consultations, custom furniture sourcing, and basic delivery help. It’s a bit hidden and totally worth the hunt, packed with pieces you didn’t even know you needed.
Storehouse no.9 – Interiors & Outdoor
If you’re after laid-back style, Storehouse no.9 – Interiors & Outdoor nails it with a modern farmhouse vibe, soft neutrals, and enough textured throws to make you rethink your whole weekend. The shop spans two renovated mid-century buildings, giving off a boutique feel without any whispering rules. Showrooms are full of cute corners and full-room vignettes so you see exactly how everything works together.
They carry cozy indoor sofas and those Summer Classics outdoor sets your backyard will thank you for come spring. You’ll also find table lamps, pendant lights, pillows, baskets, faux plants, vases, mirrors, and a rotating selection of gifts that might end up in your cart.
Price tags run from “what a steal” to “ramen for a week,” depending on how fancy you go. The family-run staff actually seem happy to help and will even beat competitor prices when they can. Storehouse no.9 has that friendly, helpful vibe you don’t see very often.
Riverside Franklin
Right in downtown Franklin, Riverside Franklin hits the sweet spot between “Whoa, that’s fancy” and “Hey, I can afford this.” They’ve been holding down the fort since 1996 inside charming brick walls packed with local pride. The look is tasteful without being stiff—modern pieces mingle with vintage gems and a few quirky finds, all arranged so nothing feels cluttered.
The space is bigger than it seems from the street, with two showrooms joined together. You’ll start in the front with cheery planters and patio gear, then drift through cleverly staged nooks full of mirrors, bedding, lamps, and accent tables. Prices sit in the mid-to-high range, but keep an eye out for wallet-friendly surprises tucked here and there.
Service is attentive without being pushy, and if you need fresh ideas, in-store consultations are available. It’s the kind of place everyone in Franklin knows about—and for good reason.
American Signature Furniture
You know the type, right? American Signature Furniture lives in that sweet spot between “I want my home to shine” and “I’m not remortgaging for a couch.” Their mid-priced collections range from modern farmhouse to minimalist chic, all displayed in roomy showrooms set up like real rooms so you can see how pieces play together.
They cover every corner of your house—living room, dining area, bedroom, kids’ space, even the home office. Plus, they stock name-brand mattresses if sleep is high on your priority list. On the perks side, they offer custom “Make It You” seating options, exclusive ComforTECH fabrics, and white-glove delivery that takes away the packaging when they leave.
With regular doorbusters, seasonal patio sets, and year-end clearances, you don’t have to wait for a payout to upgrade your space. It’s a solid choice for anyone who wants style and value in one place.
Painted Tree Boutiques – Franklin
Hidden just off Murfreesboro Pike, Painted Tree Boutiques in Franklin feels like someone collected 100+ independent shop owners under one big roof and called it a day. It looks like a strip-mall spot, but step inside and each booth becomes its own décor universe—boho macramé here, farmhouse signs there, modern glass vases over in the corner.
You can snag budget-friendly pillows and wall art or splurge on accent chairs and mid-range furniture. Upcycled finds and local artisan pieces give it a unique edge you won’t get at chain stores. Vendors rotate fairly often, so there’s always something new to discover, and seasonal displays take over every few months.
Some booth owners offer custom gifts, assembly or delivery on larger items, and the store even hosts occasional shopping and DIY events. If you love hunting for that perfect piece or grabbing a fuss-free gift, Painted Tree will keep you browsing for hours.
At Home
If you’ve ever walked into a store and thought, okay… is it possible to have too many throw pillows, then At Home has you covered. This big-box chain practically invented the “grab a cart, you’ll need it” shopping trip. Ever since the rebrand from Garden Ridge Pottery in 2014, At Home’s mission has been simple: offer more selection than a 24-hour diner menu. They stock furniture, wall art, kitchen gear, lamps, rugs, houseplants, patio sets, and all the seasonal décor that somehow ends up in your cart whenever a new holiday rolls around.
Their warehouse-style layout could swallow a football field and still squeeze in another aisle of knickknacks and vintage mirrors. Prices stay budget-friendly without feeling like you’re sacrificing quality. With everyday low prices instead of “check for pricing errors” moments, you can shop with confidence. Check out their in-store displays for inspiration and follow the clear signage to find what you need. Plus, with free two-hour pickup and same-day delivery starting at ten bucks, you can save your weekend for fun stuff.
