Below I have listed my top favourite furniture and decor shops that I personally use and source from on a regular basis. I do not receive any commission for mentioning these shops, they are listed based on my experience and preference. When I worked as an Interior Designer I had a source list as long as my arm and these are but a few that were tried, tested and true. Enjoy the browsing and inspiration!
