Moving to a new place is always intimidating — new people, new places, possibly a new job — and in the midst of all that new-ness, your home should be your haven. At first, your house will just be a bunch of empty, echoey rooms, but once you start filling those rooms with furniture that you love, that house will truly become a home. To get you started on the construction of your own personal refuge, here’s a list of the best furniture stores in Lancaster, Ohio.

“If you are looking for furniture store in Lancaster this is the place. Excellent customer service! They do not jump on you when you walk in the door and then hover over you. They let you browse.

Colony Classics & Interiors
Cute Antiques and Unique Items
602 N High St
Lancaster, OH 43130
(740)687-6222

The unique furniture in Colony Classics & Interiors is inspired by traditional colonial designs, with much of their furniture handcrafted by Amish. Best of all, their furniture is unmistakably cozy. They even have a cat room in which they display tapestries that feature our furry friends. If you really want the complete country traditional look, you could seek advice from the store’s on-site design consultant, and maybe even order custom-made furniture.
“Purchased a chair and other items a couple years ago. Very satisfied. I do not live close to Lancaster, Oh. Had items sent. Looks as if plenty of more unique items for awesome decor in our homes.” - Margie Jennings Ellis on Facebook

One of the many furniture stores featuring Amish and Menonnite craftsmanship in Lancaster, Miller’s Furniture stands out with their low prices, wide variety, and excellent craftsmanship.

Amanda Furniture Store
A local hidden gem
302 E Main St
Amanda, OH 43102
(740)969-2851
Mon: 10am-5pm
Wed-Thu: 10am-5pm
Fri: 10am-6pm
Sun: 12pm-5pm
Amanda Furniture Store is set up like a market, with several booths manned by local craftspeople that specialize in different kinds of furniture. Because of this, you’ll be able to find the best of whatever you happen to be looking for. There’s also a section of the store with their own furniture, as well as an area for auctions which is put to good use every Friday night. Step into the store, and you’ll be greeted by so many treasures, it’ll be hard to pick just one.
“Super friendly staff as soon as we walked in the door! This place does auctions on Friday nights & has craft & antique vendor spaces up front. We stopped in because of a CraigsList ad we saw for a furniture piece. It did not pan out as expected, but did find a few other treasures to salvage & upcycle.” - Hannah M. on Yelp
Big Sandy Superstore
Unbeatable Prices and a Wide Selection
1858 North Memorial Dr
Lancaster, OH 43130
(740)689-9617
Mon-Sat: 10am-9pm
Sun: 1pm-6pm
If you’re looking to create a home on a budget, Big Sandy Superstore is just the place to go. Their prices are as low as it gets, and if another store has prices that are lower, they will match it on the spot. Unlike Miller’s, however, their furniture is not built to endure generations of use — so in general it might be best to purchase more transient pieces of furniture here. They allow any crediting options you could possibly think of, including no credit, layaway, and other special financing.
“We ended up going from "just looking" to purchasing a stove, microwave and a dishwasher. I can honestly say we weren't ready to buy but Doug made it such a great experience and gave us such a great deal that we decided it would be crazy not to buy right then and there.” - Gary F. on Yelp
Sticks and Stones Studio
Unique Used and Vintage Items
4 E Waterloo St
Canal Winchester, OH 43110
(614)561-7551
Wed-Fri: 12pm-5pm
Sat: 10am-5pm
This shop is the very definition of cute, crammed with unique furniture and knick-knacks, and decorated by old rolling ladders, wood floors, and tin ceilings. In addition to their stock of farmhouse-inspired furniture, Sticks and Stones Studio also carries Annie Sloan Chalk Paint, specially designed for painting furniture without priming or sanding. You could use this paint to truly make a piece of furniture your own, and don’t worry if you don’t have much experience with remodeling furniture — the store also offers workshops that will teach you how to use the paint.
“There are two very large rooms to this store and the items ranged from older original furniture, repainted or re-purposed furniture, nick knacks, jewelry, wall hangings, handmade cards, and all manner of lovely items to decorate your home. The owner was there during my visit and was very friendly and helpful. There were a few other stores of this nature in the immediate area (it's a great corner of Canal Winchester to spend a few hours) but this store was the biggest.” - Melissa M. on Yelp
Georgie Emerson Vintage
Creamy White Farmhouse Vibes
360 W Waterloo St
Canal Winchester, Ohio 43110
(614)562-9938
Wed-Fri: 12pm-5pm
Sat: 10am-5pm
Located right next door to Sticks and Stones Studio, this little shop is run by the owner, Polly. and stocked by her friends, who provide her with hand-painted signs, jewelry, artwork, and so on — all handmade. In addition to these unique decorative items, she also carries a wide array of vintages that have stood the test of time. These one-of-a-kind pieces are sure to make your space feel like your own.
“When I need a unique gift for a friend for a birthday or special occasion, I go to Georgie's. It is also quickly becoming the place to go to get decorating ideas for our 200 y/o Home. I love, love their new bigger space and am already planning another trip soon to get more items for my home decorating projects. I just have to pace myself a little.” - Julie M. on Yelp
CornerSmiths
Huge Selection of True Vintages and Antiques
1 S High St
Canal Winchester, OH 43110
(614)834-9725

To finish off the trifecta, this cozy vintage shop is across the street from both Sticks and Stones Studio and Georgie Emerson Vintage. CornerSmith is well-known as one of the best vintage furniture shops in the area, and their great customer service and variety of distinctive and well-crafted pieces makes it easy to see why. Like the other shops, they mix and match new items with true vintages, which means that even if vintage isn’t your thing, you can still find something that suits your tastes.
“I just LOVE this place. If I need a neat gift, not the usual, this is my go to. The local flair, with quality pieces, make this a great shop to go to often as the inventory and look is always changing. I defy anyone to find more friendly workers!” - Julia L. on Yelp
Hopefully this list will help you find some items to start filling up those cold, empty rooms and make moving a little less daunting. You may have to face a lot of “new,” but your new furniture should help you feel more comfortable, not less. Each of these stores holds different treasures, so keep exploring until you feel that your house is sufficiently homey.
