Home Decor in New Haven, CT

“Gorgeous place, expanded with lots of upscale furniture. Pricy-- yes. Classy-- yes. They will pick up your old furniture for a fee on delivery. It does take forever-- like 8 weeks -- to get your sofa.”

“This place caught me off guard- in a good way. Strange Ways is tucked in behind the courthouses in New Haven, and I never would’ve expected a store with this much personality to be hiding there. I was drawn in by the bright colors and the wordplay, and once inside it kept getting better.

The whole vibe feels like reconnecting with your childhood self- playful, bold, colorful, and a little weird in a way that works. If you love clever phrases, visual humor, and design that doesn’t take itself too seriously, this store is full of it. It’s also a fantastic spot for gifts, especially for those people who are impossible to shop for because they “already have everything.”

They have a great assortment of patches, pins, stationery, and small gift items, and I appreciated that nothing felt generic or mass-produced. I ended up buying myself a sweater and a beanie (because obviously), and both were great quality. Pricing felt very fair... exactly what you’d expect when supporting a small, local business, without feeling overpriced.

The staff was super friendly and welcoming, which always makes a difference. And surprisingly, parking wasn’t bad at all. I parked right on the street, fed the meter with some quarters, and had no issues.

This is one of those shops that makes you happy you wandered off the main path a bit. I’ll definitely be back.”

“Super kind and professional owners. My husband and I came in to get our Ketubah (Jewish marriage contract) framed and it was ready for pickup within a few weeks. It is a really special piece that we will forever have hanging in our home and they handled it with such care. They were really delightful to work with and the prices felt very reasonable for the quality of the frame/glass. Glad to have this shop in Westville!”

“A really cool eclectic store with lots of cool things you didn’t know you needed. We found all kinds of neat things. A really nice spot without pushy sales people.”

“Extremely happy with our experience at Jordan’s. Nancy our salesperson couldn’t have been nicer. She was both knowledgeable and experienced with the Mattesses we were looking at. After a few hours of testing each mattress, we purchased an Aireloom Sonora plush. Can’t wait for delivery. Thank you Nancy and Jordan’s.”

“Miles has revived my love for Urban Outfitters. Such an inviting warm welcoming person. I have increased my trips both in the store and online thanks to the level of customer service excuse me customer care Miles has displayed. I feel very welcome and safe shopping here. The styles are truly one of one quality trendy without being too cliche.There is a reason this location continues to reign supreme. It was all the rage 17 years ago when I was in my early college days . It is nice to see new generations of shoppers experiencing a brand that is truly a lifestyle.

Miles is truly one of one and has single handedly restored my love for the Urban Outfitters.Miles handles watch customer with such passion and care. I have increased my trips to the physical store solely because I know he’s likely to be present. Really great personality very professional knows the brand extensively. Miles was able to connect with me as someone who shopped here as my main store in high school and again in college. Now I’m a mom and Miles helped me realize not online can my teenage daughter be a knew fan of the brand he showed me there was space for me to experience the brand in a whole new refreshing way”
