Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Nature of Business	Nature of Business — Kirkland’s, Inc. (the “Company”, “we”, “our” or “us”) is a specialty retailer of home décor and furnishings in the United States operating 339 stores in 35 states as of October 28, 2023, as well as an e-commerce website, www.kirklands.com, under the Kirkland’s Home brand.
Principles of consolidation	Principles of consolidation — The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of Kirkland’s, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Kirkland’s Stores, Inc., Kirkland’s DC, Inc., and Kirkland’s Texas, LLC. Significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
Basis of presentation	Basis of presentation — The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and are presented in accordance with the requirements of Form 10-Q and pursuant to the reporting and disclosure rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). In the opinion of management, all adjustments, including normal recurring accruals, considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 4, 2023.
Fiscal year	Seasonality — The results of the Company’s operations for the 13-week and 39-week periods ended October 28, 2023 are not indicative of the results to be expected for any other interim period or for the entire fiscal year due to seasonality factors. Fiscal year — The Company’s fiscal year ends on the Saturday closest to January 31, resulting in years of either 52 or 53 weeks. Accordingly, fiscal 2023 represents the 53 weeks ending on February 3, 2024 and fiscal 2022 represents the 52 weeks ended on January 28, 2023
Use of estimates	Use of estimates — The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from the estimates and assumptions used. It should be understood that accounting measurements at interim dates inherently involve greater reliance on estimates than those at fiscal year-end. Changes in estimates are recognized in the period when new information becomes available to management. Areas where the nature of the estimate makes it reasonably possible that actual results could materially differ from amounts estimated include, but are not limited to, impairment assessments on long-lived assets, inventory reserves, self-insurance reserves and deferred tax asset valuation allowances.
