Sprout Home — with boutiques online and in Chicago and Brooklyn — is the rare store with a hip selection of both house and garden goodies. Its earth-friendly enthusiasm extends from gardening gifts to goods like soy-based candles and furniture made from sustainable Brazilian wood. Sprout also sells garden design services, and the Chicago shop even offers a service where customers get a box of organically grown produce every month.

Even without the earth-friendly elements, Sprout would be notable for its selection of nature-inspired designs that appeal to chic tastes. It carries everything from lighting and tableware to herbs and gardening tools. I'm dying to get this Treehugger Plate ($6.75) so I can stop using paper plates at the office.
