Online home improvement stores to accommodate your decorating needs.

Remember the days of trudging through one store after another, sitting on couches, flipping through fabric swatches and measuring coffee tables? Home improvement projects meant seemingly endless investments of time searching for just the right items.

Fast-forward to the 21st century, where the e-commerce revolution makes it possible to browse products ranging from appliances and furniture to candles and vases from the comfort of your family room. Here are online home improvement stores to accommodate the full spectrum of decorating needs.

Wayfair
In 2002, a pair of entrepreneurs looking for "the next big thing" stumbled onto a website that sold birdhouses. They applied the effective marketing principles of that modest but successful business to found Wayfair, a global home improvement e-commerce store. Wayfair's mission is simple: they believe everyone should live in a home they love. The site features 14 million items from more than 11,000 suppliers, including their own family of brands. Orders over $35 ship for free and two-day shipping is available on many items.
West Elm
As a subsidiary of Williams-Sonoma, one of the most recognized and trusted names in home improvement retail, West Elm has an impressive pedigree. The store is known primarily for its selection of products with a clean, modern style that maintains a timeless appeal. This summer, West Elm is making a big splash debuting their collaboration with REI Co-op, the iconic outdoor products company. The 35-item collection of lifestyle items marks the first time in REI Co-op's 82-year history that their goods have been sold through another retailer.
ABC Carpet & Home
For decades, the delights of ABC Carpet & Home and their six-floor Manhattan store were exclusive to locals and tourists. Today, thanks to the wonders of e-commerce, people from coast to coast can shop ABC and make their home improvement dreams come true. In keeping with its mission to "minimize our collective environmental footprint and maximize social justice," ABC focuses on selling ethically-sourced furniture and home decor accessories that promote sustainability and worthwhile causes.
