It’s a bittersweet goodbye for Ferny’s.
Everyone’s favorite design duo and co-founders of Magnolia, Chip and Joanna Gaines, have something new in store for their fans—literally: The Magnolia Silos are getting a new store, but this new installation means customers will have to say goodbye to a much-loved shop.
If you’re not familiar, the Silos are Magnolia’s own street of boutiques in Waco, Texas. Joanna has said she pulled inspiration from New York City brick-and-mortars to create a cute and stylish row of six different shops that sell all things Magnolia, from furniture to cupcakes. With this latest update, the Silos will get a fresh display for a beautiful new line of home decor products, but it does come at the expense of one of the market’s classic shops.

While it’s not uncommon to see a store’s name and product selection change from time to time, there’s a major, seemingly permanent revamp going on right now: Magnolia has removed its beloved plant shop, Ferny’s: The Retro Plant Shop, and replaced it with an all-new interior design experience. Named the Art of Entertaining, this addition offers up everything you need to create the perfect tablescape, with dozens of items to transform your dining room into the ideal hosting spot.
While this is an exciting endeavor, you may be wondering: What’s to become of Ferny’s? Though you might still see some pop-ups in the future, the owner (Joanna’s younger sister, Mikey) posted on social media earlier this year that she wanted to focus more on her family. This gave Chip and Jo the opportunity to expand their home decor offerings with the Art of Entertaining. Fortunately, you’ll still be able to find a few Ferny’s products at other Magnolia shops.

What You Can Expect from the Newest Shop at the Silos
We’re more than loving the style of the Art of Entertaining. The pieces embody the classic, rustic farm feel Chip and Jo are known for but in a way that effortlessly blends into your own home—no matter its style.
Scalloped plates, rose-gold silverware, woven placemats, and carved wood trays are just a few of the artisan-inspired items you’ll find while browsing. It’s intended to be your one-stop-shop for everything you need to host (and then some), and you can explore the decor online and at the adorable storefront, of course.
