Tracey & Kelly
Founded in 2005 by Tracey Shingledecker and Kelly O'Donnell, Back Row Home is a curated destination for antiques, furnishings, décor, gifts, and distinctive finds for every corner of the home. What began as a shared passion for sourcing unique pieces throughout Europe has grown into a 16,000-square-foot showroom filled with timeless treasures and everyday essentials.
Today, Tracey and Kelly continue to travel abroad in search of exceptional 18th, 19th, and 20th century antiques, thoughtfully mixing them with industrial and mid-century influences. The result is a collection that feels layered, inspiring, and uniquely personal—helping customers create homes filled with character, beauty, and story.
Our Story
Back Row Home began with a love of discovering beautiful things and bringing them home. In 2005, Tracey Shingledecker and Kelly O’Donnell began their journey after a personal trip to Europe, where they found themselves drawn to the history, craftsmanship, and character found in antique furniture and objects.
What started as a small antiques business has grown into a 16,000-square-foot showroom in Houston filled with American and European antiques, architectural elements, decorative pieces, contemporary furnishings, lighting, rugs, bedding, tabletop, gifts, and more.
Today, Back Row Home is a place to wander, discover, and find something that feels uniquely yours. Our collection is always evolving, with pieces sourced for their character, craftsmanship, and ability to bring warmth and personality to a home.
Why "Back Row"?
You'll find us in the back row of Memorial Design Center on Katy Freeway and that's exactly where our name comes from. Tucked into the back row of the complex, our showroom has become a destination for designers, homeowners, and anyone who loves a beautifully collected home.
