You'll receive personalized advice in a friendly atmosphere as you browse for unique finds that will add just the right touch to your home. As an added bonus, you'll be helping to support the local economy. Our real estate agents recommend visiting the following local stores to help transform your home.

Elora Home Interiors - 214 E. State St., Rockford, IL 61104
The owner of Elora Home Interiors got her start by making handcrafted items at home. They proved to be so popular that her friends wanted to buy them, which led to her shop opening. All the items at Elora are handmade, so you know you're getting some unique pieces. Look for pillows, vases, candles, mugs, and other accessories to add the perfect finishing touch to your home, and while you're there, pick up some leather handbags and wallets to elevate your personal style.
Proper on State - 109 N. Show Place Drive, Rockford, IL 61107
If you're looking for a one-of-a-kind shop with a fun, friendly atmosphere, head to Proper on State. This quaint boutique has a great mix of new and vintage items and eclectic pieces to fill your home. Need some greenery to brighten up your home or a vintage wooden-framed mirror? You'll find them and other cool items like paper-mache urns and vintage wooden furniture and clocks. The shop will likely have just the piece you need—even if you didn't know you were looking for it.
Benson Stone Company - 1100 11th St., Rockford, IL 61104
From its beginnings in 1930 as a fabrication shop producing cut stone products, Benson Stone Company has moved locations and evolved into a shop that, as its slogan says, offers "Everything for a Beautiful Home … All in One Place." If you're into one-stop shopping, this is the place for you! You'll find flooring, fireplaces, lighting, mattresses, and furniture for living rooms, dining rooms, and bedrooms. Help is also available from kitchen and bath designers and other experts.
Rooted - 1408 N. Main St., Rockford, IL 61103
Located in Rockford's North End, Rooted carries an interesting combination of vintage and new home goods and furniture items. The owner's goal is to have a little bit of everything for everyone, and you'll find items that will not only help transform your home but also make great gifts. These include colorfully unique, high-quality tea towels, Peking Handicraft throw blankets, dried florals, and fun and whimsical coasters. They're just the kind of items that will make visitors to your home ask, "Where'd you find that?"
Urban Farmgirl - 716 N. Madison St., Rockford, IL 61107
The owner of Urban Farmgirl got her start selling hand-painted and repurposed furniture at the flea market for over a decade, and she's since opened an 8,000-square-foot furniture and home decor showroom in downtown Rockford. You'll find just the right finishing touches at the shop, whether you're looking for the perfect storage cabinet or want to beautify your home with seagrass baskets, natural-form Spanish wood risers, a hanging planter, or their signature Rockford Peach candle.
