With two such perfect options for Best Indie Furniture Store, it’s no wonder our readers couldn’t decide. Located in the old Ambassador Roller Rink in downtown Clawson, Leon & Lulu’s features an eclectic mix of furniture that is both well-made and well-designed. While you’re there, be sure to browse their one-of-a-kind pieces crafted by artists and artisans while you enjoy some coffee and a cookie. Bright Ideas, with locations in downtown Royal Oak and Southfield, illustrates spot-on suggestions for room settings with their store displays. But feel free to mix and match — dining tables and chairs are priced separately, not as sets, and the same goes for bedrooms.
