As a featured designer on Etsy’s Black-owned brands to watch, Candice Luter’s brand is a bit smaller but her fan base is quickly expanding as she debuts new styles and color combinations of her macrame wall art. When it comes to Luter’s designs, think “clean, texture and flow.” 

In five years, Luter says she sees herself expanding into more areas of interior design including lighting and furniture.

“ I like to think of interiors as a whole when I design a wall hanging and how they fit together,” Luter says. “Since woodworking was where I first began, I would love to take things back to those roots!  I may have a few pieces in the works ready to launch for Spring.” 

Items are handmade and inspired by Luter’s grandmother and her love of fiber art. We recommend the “Vibrato,” a striking fringed accent wall piece and a personal favorite of Luter.

Why shop Black-owned home decor brands

Besides the obvious aesthetic lift to your home, supporting Black-owned businesses and creators, in general, goes towards a much bigger cause that goes back generations. Here’s why you should shop Black-owned before you head to IKEA for a decor quick fix.

Job creation:

Many of the brands on our list showcase artists and designers on a larger platform than may typically be available. By supporting these businesses, you’re not only keeping them in business, but you’re also helping to create jobs for local creators in disenfranchised communities.

Celebrate Black culture:

Most Black-owned home decor brands are inspired by African American culture as well as traditional African culture and design. Purchasing pieces that celebrate the Black community are a unique way to bring your personality and values to an otherwise empty wall or space.

Promote representation:

You may not often think of it as such, but every dollar you spend is a vote towards the products and services you value compared to others. When you purchase your home decor, think of it as a signal to designers and companies that these are the types of products that you want to see going forward. More Black-owned buys mean more Black-owned goods.

Eliminate the racial wealth gap:

The roots of the racial wealth gap go all the way back to the Jim Crow era; however, the outlawed, harmful practices like redlining and job discrimination are still affecting Black families in the U.S. Supporting small Black-owned businesses and Black entrepreneurs, we’re investing in our community’s wealth-builders and promoting others to do the same.
