This store is an absolute treasure! Located a short couple of miles north of Statesville, it's hard…read moreto describe exactly what it is. It's a gift shop with locally made and sourced goods, from stickers to jewelry, to cups, clothing, etc. It's an antique store with two smallish rooms in back just stuffed full of antique bric-a-brac. It's a "grocery" store with coolers/freezers containing locally made foods, dairy, eggs, etc. they have a local bakery delivering bread on Fridays and a local dessert Baker bringing cakes etc. They even have an ice cream shop! There's a large wall with jams, jellies and pickles off every variety. At certain times, they have a mini produce market outside. (It pays to watch their social media account.) Of course, the people who work here are super nice and helpful. The prices are, on average, very reasonable. If the parking lot looks full, drive around to the back for more. I highly recommend Southern Charmers for many things. You need to check it out!

There's so much to look at here, the property itself is stunning and surrounded by amazing nature, the staff are all warm and friendly, and you could spend literally hours here perusing the shelves. There's good old fashioned candy, popcorn, snacks, there's Valle Crucis souvenirs to bring home. It's never felt like a tourist trap, it's always felt very warm, country, and welcoming. The building itself is so old and stunning! The creamy floors and woodsy smells, it's always a treat to come here and there's so much to look at and buy. There's even a Christmas shop upstairs year round, where you can stock up on goodies ahead of time for Christmas. I'd say the value is pretty good, depending on what you're buying. Snacks, drinks, candy are all very affordable, but the souvenir and brand name products of course are higher up in price, which is to be expected. All in all, a wonderful place to stop by to grab a treat or bring home some gifts for family and friends. Highly recommend!!!

The Vintage Farmhouse General Store is a great option for anyone visiting West Jefferson who is…read morelooking for an alternative to parking & exploring the larger downtown area nearby. This place is a little ways away from most of "the action", has plentiful on-site parking, and combines coffee shop + bakery + general store in one location. The store is relatively new to West Jefferson and opened within the last few years. It's family owned and operated, and the staff members who were working on the day of my visit could not have been lovelier. The only reason I'm not giving this place five stars is because I felt like the selection of merchandise in the general store was not as eclectic as most general stores I've visited. The majority of the merchandise either fell into what felt like a "live, laugh, love" version of a feminine / children's esthetic, or was downstairs in a section literally called "the man cave". With so many amazing local merchants and artists throughout the West Jefferson community, it would have been nice to see a few more options that fell between these two groups and were maybe a bit more neutral. While I very much enjoyed exploring the store and looking through everything, when it came time to actually purchase something for myself or to use as a gift, I really couldn't settle on anything that would be a good fit.

There is a decent amount of jewelry, kitchen items, holiday decor, and clothes (upstairs). The coffee shop downstairs is also a nice touch to the store-I recommend stopping in there first and drinking your coffee as you shop. There was plenty of parking and it was easy to locate. It's unique and separate from the rest of historic downtown West Jefferson which makes it an easy recommendation to anyone looking for gifts.

My daughter, grandson and I drove from Linville to Greenhouse Crafts Shop only to be told it was closed Sunday at 1:00 instead of the 3:30 we read on the internet.

We got a gift for one of our neighbors and I am so excited to give it to her. It's a charcuterie board that is wood and has been Fractal Lightenburg, it's beautiful and you can feel the energy from the artist through it. And we also purchased two canvases for our daughters, Catherine painted. They are beautiful and we are so thrilled to have these pieces of Catherine's person our home. Thank you Catherine for sharing your gift with the world. While we were there she was working on some stain glass pieces that were the perfect gift as well. This little charming shop is a gem. Definitely stop in, have a chat with Catherine and take a piece of something special home with you.
