20 LGBTQIA+ Home Brands To Support During Pride Month and Always

"Hearst Magazines and Yahoo may earn commission or revenue on some items through these links."

As May turned into June, Pride Month officially started. Pride Month, like other heritage- and community-centered months, is a time to celebrate and support the LGBTQIA+ community, including both those who are out and those who are not. While yes, you should celebrate the LGBTQIA+ community and celebrate your authentic self all year long, it's fun to have an entire month dedicated to the loving and inclusive community. And there's no better way to support it than to spend your money with LGBTQIA+-owned businesses. According to the National LGBT Chamber of Commerce, approximately 1.4 million LGBTQ+-owned businesses contribute over $1.7 million in economic impact. Home brands comprise a huge part of that number, and we're here to spotlight LGBTQIA+-led companies you can support as you level up your space.

A number of companies and corporations release and promote Pride Month collections as a show of support, but as the term greenwashing indicates for environmental awareness, rainbow washing is often performative. So rather than spend money and support big-box stores, why not shop directly from the LGBTQIA+ community and pick up a few more things to use to decorate your home? Ahead, we’re highlighting 20 of our favorite LGBTQIA-owned businesses, including Jeremiah Brent, BoySmells, and Coming Soon NY. Go on, check it all out, and make sure to keep them in mind every time you shop for your place.

French Cut Candle

Started in 2022 by Jeremiah Brent (interior designer and husband to Nate Berkus), Atrio is a beautifully curated shop full of vintage and new homewares. We especially love its selection of versatile kitchenware and good-smelling candles (like this one, with a vessel that doubles as a beautiful vase).

Mackenzi Farquer forged her first store in 2007, which later became Lockwood in 2013. The LGBTQ and female-owned business sells gifts, home decor, food items, clothing, beauty and wellness products, and kids gear that all promote local makers and up-and-coming brands in the New York City area. We love the white ceramic Apollo mug that's dishwasher, oven, and microwave safe.

LES Scented Candle

In 2015, Boy Smells was created in the Los Angeles kitchen of co-founders and partners Matthew Herman and David Kien. Over the years, their fragrant inventory continues to surprise its cult-following, but LES (with notes of notes of Blackcurrant, peach blossom, jasmine rice, Asian pear, coconut, cardamom, and white cedar) is still a leading best-seller. Don't hesitate to grab a few jars for your home!
