The Twisted Willow was a fun find when I was exploring Downtown Smithfield. It is located in the…read morebuilding that was once home to the Gabriel Johnson Hotel. The 120-year-old building had been condemned at one point, but was renovated in 2021. The building has 20-foot ceilings and exposed brick. The boutique is large at 3,500 sq feet. It sells antiques, furniture, books, coins, comic books, home accents such as lamps and decor, specialized foods, soaps, jewelry, pillows, dish towels, candles, and topiary. I'm sure I missed items. I overheard a couple mentioning that they have church pews from time to time. I left with vintage postcards and a mini metal bicycle with a chain and kickstand. It was so unique I decided to grab it while it was there. If you are in Downtown Smithfield, make sure to stop in Twisted Willow for quality service and some unique finds.

I made a return stop to Carolina Pottery at the Carolina Premium Outlet Mall. I wasn't a fan of it…read moreon my first visit a few years back. It just felt junky to me this visit. Quality is more important to me than being a low price, as something that will last years is a better value than something that will just last a short time. Before, I noted that the majority of items were made in China and the store lacked locally made products or handcrafted pottery. I appreciate locally made products and the craftsmanship. So it is disappointing that these products are not available. It does have a large craft section for those looking for something similar to a Michaels store. Outdoor furniture seemed to be another big seller. It is a busy store so some seem to like it. I'm not sure how the prices compare to other stores. Most of these outlet stores tend to price high. I do not see myself returning here ever.

There were 2 ladies that were sorting merchandise near the check out area so I walked back & forth and asked if there was a register open. At that point 'Georgia' said not very nicely "go to register 1". I smiled & said thank you as she was clearly agitated. As I was checking out there was a prompt on the kiosk about the Loyality program. I was curious but she clearly wanted me to hurry up, making a sigh when I hesitated to finish the transaction because I wanted to know about the program. I didn't ask as she made me uncomfortable enough by being so agitated just walking over to ring up 1 item. It was a disappointing experience to say the least. It's unfortunate that she doesn't want to help customers when that is what she should be there to do.

I got the Quattro farmiggiano flat bread pizza thing and my father got the Cajun chicken Sammy and I also got the Nutella strawberry waffle stick and it was all very yummy and fresh!

We stopped here after doing some shopping and I think this would be my choice next time I find myself in Selma or shopping in Smithfield! Very tasty and hit the spot.

Best Flea market in the area…read more They have a variety of small business selling a variety of things. Anything from candles, crystals, clothes, home decor, party supplies and so much more. They have a good variety of food options here as well. Fruteria stands, home made ice cream, fresh coconut, fresh papitas and fresh Chicharrones just to name a few. Defiantly a fun weekend activity for the family.

The areas that were opened was either Hispanic western wear, a few tables with religious items, statues, and candles, and other random finds. They say one man's junk is another man's treasure. I'm sure if everything was opened this would be a great place. And since the majority of the flea market was closed, it was a waste of our trip. I would not recommend.

It seemed to of good quality and they beat the price. BUT when they installed they ordered so little that every room had to be pieced ,4 pieces to do my bedroom and 2 for each closet!! The installer said I had 8 lb. luxury padding like I ordered at Lowes but I took a label I removed from the padding to an another installer and was told it was the basic standard 6 lb. The carpet looks great but the real quality of with patched installation and downgraded pad signifies a real rip off.

I bought Congoleum Evolution vinyl and had it installed in my kitchen/dining room and foyer. The…read moreproduct is superb and Hopkins had the cheapest price I found: $2.55 sq. ft. Unlike, other companies, Hopkins doesn't cheat in measurements (They measured at least 15 ft. less than two other companies). Installation is more expensive at Hopkins, but with less flooring, it comes to about the same as cheaper places (You must do the math). However, installation was poor. The installer left big spaces around the perimeter that were not all covered with the shoe moulding. My husband had to apply tinted caulk in many areas to cover the gaps. When I complained to the owner, she would not hear it. So, if a good price is what you're looking for, check out Hopkins. If service is more important, go with someone else.
