Moving to the Buffalo Area without knowledge of what is around you can be intimidating. Intimidating, yes. Long lasting intimidation, no. Once you’ve moved into Allentown in the heart of Buffalo, NY, you’ll find yourself among friendly faces, helpful neighbors, and, most importantly, an abundance of small businesses that there is so much to learn about.
The biggest struggle when moving into a new place can be the décor. We’ve created a list of wonderful places in the proximity of Allentown & The Elmwood Village of Buffalo to get you started on your own interior design for your home for the next year or more.
This local gem is located at 732 Elmwood Ave, Buffalo, NY 14222. Their reputation is one of elegance and style. With creative and innovative designs throughout this décor boutique, you’ll be able to find the perfect statement pieces for your new place in no time at all.
“On the weekends, we would go to estate sales to buy unique vintage pieces, repaint and upholster them, and give them new life. We were resourceful and loved rescuing beautifully designed pieces for people to incorporate into their homes”
Put a Plant on It | Plant Shop
One may argue that plants are more friends than décor, but whatever your outlook, a plant is the perfect addition to a new place. Plants are great to have in the City of Buffalo, too, because of the often cold & dreary days we experience. Plants add a bit of greenery but also a bit of fresh air to filter out the dust, allergens, and more that come with the territory of living in a city that loves the snow. You can grab your new plant friend at 715 Elmwood Ave, Buffalo, NY 14222.
Everything Elmwood | Gift Shop

Located at 740 Elmwood Ave, Buffalo, NY 14222, this shop has everything from sushi plates to knick-knacks to accessories, but most importantly, they have great décor to help fill any empty spaces with your style.
