  I love this store more than I can say. The owners worked with me to customize my dresser exactly how I wanted it and answered any questions I had promptly. Then they went above and beyond to deliver it to me. The quality was almost too good to believe for the price. The painting was the best I've seen at any painted furniture store. Couldn't be happier.

  It's a cute store and very much my style. I love shabby, white, country, french, etc furniture and decor. If that is the style you're looking for, I do recommend this store. I had better luck here than I had at any of the antique stores in Franklin. However with that said, while I do love the store and have bought some pieces, based on my first experience shopping at the store some of the furniture could use more tlc than what booth owners are giving based on the prices they ask. Expect to pay a high price for some pieces that you might need to take home and further improve yourself. For example, if I pay $500 for a dresser, then it better be painted and/or restored to perfection; that includes not being messy with the paint job and SANDING out any imperfections in the wood before applying even a drop of primer. If I buy a painted cabinet shelf, it better be neat inside and out. If I buy a desk, it should not have ring marks left where decor was sitting on top - marks I cannot get out. I love my pieces but do feel I paid too much money for the work I had to put into the pieces myself once I brought them home, even going so far as to buy a $45 gallon of paint to "fix" the issues that were left by the seller(s). I painted the messy interior of my cabinet where the seller didn't even bother to try to be neat with the paint, and it looks a lot better; there were splotches of paint spritzed along the inside, and it looked so bad. Painting the inside of my cabinet was a time consuming process that I shouldn't have been responsible for doing seeing as I was the customer in the transaction. Furthermore, I had to sand down the top of my expensive dresser and repaint it because there were scratches left deep in the wood that the seller didn't sand out. Also, I simply can't repair the paint damage to the back of the dresser that almost completely covers up the information about the furniture maker, the wood type, etc. And as I said above, I can't get the ring marks that were left on my desk out due to the store setting decor on top of it with nothing to protect the furniture or paint underneath. Nonetheless, I would still come back to this store because I love the style, but I might be more weary and observant next time.. and I would certainly advise others to do the same.
