Home furnishings businesses supply items used to furnish and decorate homes, including furniture, textiles, lighting and decorative accessories. Depending on their range, they may sell sofas, beds, tables, chairs, wardrobes, shelving and storage, alongside curtains, blinds, cushions, rugs, bedding and throws. Some specialise in particular rooms or product types, while others offer goods for living rooms, bedrooms, dining areas and home offices. Customers can typically expect advice on selecting materials, dimensions, colours and finishes, as well as help matching products to a room's layout and intended use. Services may include measuring, made-to-measure curtains or blinds, furniture assembly, delivery and installation. Businesses may sell from a shop, showroom or online, and can stock ready-made products, made-to-order items or furnishings from different manufacturers. The term generally refers to household furnishings rather than building materials or structural home improvements.
