    West Coast home store greets Dallas-Fort Worth with special treat from Joanna Gaines

    A new home furnishings store from the West Coast will debut its first location in Dallas-Fort Worth, with something extra from a Texas design sensation.

    Living Spaces will open its doors in Grand Prairie on May 17. Exclusive to the North Texas showroom, a Magnolia Home Flower Shop, featuring a fully functioning floral shop where custom arrangements are available for purchase, will greet guests at the front. The extra perk is a tribute to Waco-based Magnolia Home founder and "Fixer Upper" extraordinaire Joanna Gaines, whose home furnishings are also carried in the store.

    The massive new store, which includes a showroom and distribution center and spans 860,000 square feet, will carry Living Spaces’ signature wide selection of stylish pieces of furniture at affordable prices, according to a release. There's furniture and decor for every room of the house, including kids' and teens' bedrooms.

    Also, expert designers are available on-site to provide styling direction. "The Grand Prairie showroom is equipped with a Living Spaces’ Design Studio and 3D Room Designer Tool, which allows guests to create digital versions of their home and instantly render custom upholstery designs as part of their Special Order Upholstery Program," the release says.

    The space also features a 2,000-square-foot multi-level play structure and supervised movie room in case little ones need to be occupied while parents shop.

    “Opening our third location in my native state of Texas is a momentous occasion for the Living Spaces business,” says Grover Geiselman, CEO and founder of Living Spaces," in the release. “With notable attractions in the area — Lone Star Park, The Theatre at Grand Park, Epic Waters Indoor Waterpark, to name a few — Grand Prairie is a growing community for families to call home. We’re excited to be a part of the community and to serve as a resource for homeowners in the region."

    Living Spaces was established in 2003 and calls La Mirada, California home. They're the leading West Coast home furnishings retailer, known for offering a wide selection of indoor and outdoor furniture, décor, lighting, art and unique pieces at affordable price-points. They design and manufacture an assortment of exclusive products that are available online and in-store, they say.

    Living Spaces has two other locations in Texas, in Pflugerville and San Antonio. Grand Prairie marks their first foray in the Metroplex.

    "Since making our debut in Texas in fall 2018, we’ve been greeted with open arms, and we’re honored to bring our offerings of elevated furniture available at a low price point. We’re looking forward to giving the DFW Metroplex the same experience," Geiselman says.

    The store is at 1514 Arkansas Ln., Grand Prairie. Special sneak-preview events will take place from 5-9 pm May 15-16. Doors will open to the public on May 17, with limited-time deals and designs for each room.

    For more information about the store and the opening, visit the website.

    The store will sell furnishings and decor from Joanna Gaines' Magnolia Home.

    Southern Living to open 2026 Idea House in Texas Hill Country

    Southern Living Idea House will be open for tours beginning September 18.

    Whether Texas is part of the South may still be an open question, but Southern Living is settling the debate with a big investment. The Birmingham, Alabama-based lifestyle magazine will build its newest Idea House in the Hill Country town of Fredericksburg.

    For more than 35 years, Southern Living has drafted Southern builders, architects, and designers to build new homes that not only showcase the latest innovations in home design but are the epitomes of Southern style. This year, the magazine chose Fredericksburg's Friedën community, a 130-acre development featuring parks, nature trails, and lakes.

    "We're excited to call Fredericksburg home for the year and to celebrate the distinct character of the Texas Hill Country,” says editor-in-chief Sid Evans in a release. “Surrounded by rolling hills and wide-open views, this home reflects the region's natural beauty and the relaxed spirit of the Lone Star State."

    The design of the versatile home proves the modern farmhouse trend still has some legs. Southern Living’s designers update the look by ditching whitewashed everything for a more contemporary color palette that blends in with the Hill Country’s natural landscape. Floor-to-ceiling windows further “dissolve the boundaries” between the interior and the great outdoors.

    To bring their vision to life, Southern Living drafted a local team, including builder Kurk Homes, architect Andrew Bray of Mustard Architects, landscape designer Melissa Gerstle, and interior designers Jean Liu, Marcus Mohon, and Paloma Contreras. But real estate gawkers will have to wait to see most of the details. The house won’t be unveiled until September 18, when public tours open and the October issue hits stands.

    Southern Living, however, did tease a few details, saying the home is being built for “multi-generational” living with sustainable products and appliances, a motor court entry, and a private casita. No doubt, interior design buffs will also find inspiration in the decor's bold choices. Last year’s Idea House in Virginia mixed in everything from garden florals and African mudcloth to animal prints and kitchsy cottagecore art.

    The Idea House will be open to the public for tours from September 18 through December 20, 2026. Tickets will be available beginning in April, with a portion of the proceeds supporting area charities. After the open house, the home will be available for sale at an undisclosed price.
