All the Shopify themes on this list are solid choices if you’re redesigning your store or launching a new home decor brand.
But if you’re still unsure which theme to choose, ask yourself these five questions to help you make an informed decision.
Before you decide on a Shopify theme, ask yourself what you’re looking for. Brands that rely on video marketing will require themes that support dynamic video content, while products with multiple color or design variants should prioritize themes offering multiple color swatches.
It’s possible to use third-party apps to compensate for missing features. However, too many apps can slow down your store and possibly cause conflicts with your theme, affecting conversions and site stability. Hence, ensure your Shopify theme includes your must-have features before buying.
Research from Forrester shows that over half of US adults rely more on search than menus while shopping online, while 57% often use product filters to narrow search results. Your shortlisted theme should have suitable filters, search functionality, and menus to organize your products to suit your customers' product discovery needs.
For example, a multi-departmental store will need more powerful search filters than a niche home decor store. Look for features like mega menu, search recommendations, collections, and filters that improve product discovery and boost engagement.
Your customers can’t smell or touch your products while shopping online, so your product pages need to do the heavy lifting of attracting attention, addressing objections, and compelling them to purchase.
Photos and videos showing your home decor products in use or placed in real-life living spaces help customers know if your products fit in their space or how they'll use them, helping them decide whether to buy.
Besides image and video support, look for features that help you showcase your merchandise, like:
Experiment data from Portent shows that the website conversion rate drops by 4.42% with every additional second of load time. In other words, if people come to your store and do not convert, your website's load speeds might affect site conversions.
Most home decor Shopify themes listed here score an A on page speed tester GTmetrix, and all of them pass the Core Web Vitals test according to Theme Vitals.
However, your website theme is not the only factor affecting load times. Other factors include image or video size, hosting capacity, and database optimization. By following best practices to optimize page load time, you’ll provide a great user experience and reduce bounce rate.
Online consumers can get easily distracted as they contemplate or research an item in your store. Look out for features that tap into human psychology to guide customers and encourage them to make a quicker decision. Such features can help with the following:
The right Shopify theme customized to your business needs can pay for itself many times over with increased sales, sleek user experience, and memorable branding.
Remember, you only pay for your Shopify theme if you publish it to your store, so use this list to find a theme that fits your business needs and aligns with your vision.
