Just a short drive from Evans, GA, lies Bird and Branch Furniture, a hidden gem in the world of style and home decor. Run by JoAnna Bohler, her husband, and her parents, this charming store offers a unique, boutique atmosphere that sets it apart from typical furniture warehouses.
JoAnna’s vision was to create a space where customers could easily envision pieces in their own homes. “I wanted something smaller and more like a boutique when you come in. I didn’t want it to feel like a warehouse,” she explains. Every piece in the store is thoughtfully displayed.
Bird and Branch caters to a wide range of tastes, offering something for everyone. “We keep up with trends, but we keep things traditional too. It’s a very eclectic mix so most everybody is going to see something they connect with,” she notes. JoAnna also carefully selects companies that offer high-quality furniture at reasonable prices. “I’m a big fan of good deals, so it’s important to get the quality and style without paying the big price tag,” JoAnna adds. In addition to furniture, Bird and Branch offers decor items like florals, vintage vases, lamps, artwork, and candles.
One standout feature is the immediate availability of their pieces. Unlike many stores where you wait months for delivery, items at Bird and Branch are ready to take home right away. “Pieces are here and available so you don’t have to wait six to eight months for a piece of furniture that you love. We usually sell right off the floor, so you get to take it home or we deliver it to you,” JoAnna explains.
JoAnna’s journey originally began in 2016 with a 10x10 booth where she refinished furniture, while her dad built pieces. “We realized we couldn’t keep up with refinishing furniture.” As demand grew, they bought their storefront in 2020, and it was the perfect blank slate. “Everything in the building has our handprint on it. We designed and built it together, so it’s really special to us.”
