Always a great selection of fun clothing, decor, and food items. I've bought things in the store and online and have always been happy with my purchases. read more

This review is for the classes offered by CJC. My friends and I have had great experiences taking the classes here! Recently we attended "Modern Brush Calligraphy" with a guest instructor, Jessica of Pretty Prints & Paper. The structure of the course was so well planned out, and with the take-home supplies we really felt the price of the class was worth it. CJC maintains small class sizes so you really get one-on-one contact during the class or project with the instructor. They have a nice space for the class in their Carver, MN, location- reach out to them in advance if you needed any special accommodations. The shop owners are very accommodating and provide great customer service. We've also taken a modern wreath making class here & really enjoyed the process. The time allotted was just perfect, and the take-home project was of good quality. I would estimate their classes would be great for groups of 1-10 easily! They offer great variety in their course selection, the format is effective, & instructors are well-prepared. The Only odd thing: you pay a small online fee when you buy your classes. With the price of their classes seeming a bit on the higher end, it would be great if this fee went away since there's no "delivery" costs. Take a class - they're great! read more

Carver Junk Company - A class in Summer 2019 we attended! - Home Decor Near Me - Chaska, Minnesota

First of all, you've gotta pay a visit to Carver. What a great little town! Carver Junk Company is an occasional shop, so check their page to find out when they're open: www.carverjunkcompany.com/ The drive there is easy and pleasant, such is the destination. When you enter the front door, you're drawn into a fantastical little world of timely treasures and fun, friendly hosts who are passionate and excited about their business, inventory and patrons. Have some extra room or bring a truck, because chances are you won't leave empty handed. Not to mention, the inventory changes at every sale and they're more than happy to search for or commission nearly any item if they don't have what you want right then and there. Too much fun!! read more

See all

This place is more swag than junk. Its furniture painted and distressed to look old. Not all that much imagination or creativity. Decent place for a souvenir or to bring your mom. read more

Hands down this is my favorite place to shop for furniture in MN. It's the kind of furniture you'd find in an anthropologie store but at a fraction of the cost. They do social media(Facebook) perfectly. They are constantly posting inventory that makes you drool. I must like a lot of their stuff on Facebook, because a colleague of mine asked if I had gotten into the furniture business... read more

Walked in and looked around for about 10 minutes, absolutely no one cared to help me look for something in particular. Didn't feel welcomed and the prices are crazy high for recycled "junk" read more

[update] Right after I wrote my first review, I get a message with UPS tracking and this was on Saturday. It is Monday late evening now and UPS status shows that the item is ready for pickup and it has not been picked up yet! read more

I purchased three large book shelves in a gray color. Less than a year into owning them the knots in the wood were seeping thorugh causing brown spots (2-4" wide) all over the pieces. When I called them in Jan. they did tell me that it would be June until they could get to them. I happily waited. At time of pick up in June, the owner refused come into my home to help me load shelves into trailer. There was NO notice of this what so ever, even though he got very irritated with me saying "I was told." I managed to get all shelves out and helped to load and was told a 2 week lead time to repaint. After 4 weeks, I inquired and was told humidity was an issue. I inquired at 6 weeks and got this FB Message: "Hi Kate, I'm working on them now. I understand and appreciate your patience. I hope you can also understand that I can't put a higher priority on these shelves than the work I had in front of yours. But I am working hard to get them done and looking nice. I had 23 pieces of furniture ahead of yours when I picked them up and honestly, our policy is all sales are final so the fact that I agreed to fix them is not something I typically do. Old, previously owned furniture and how it reacts to new finishes is unpredictable for many reasons which is why we our policy is what it is and why our prices are extremely reasonable. I'll actually be losing money on these when all is said and done and I'm just asking for sensitivity when factoring that in. Also, I've been almost completely shut down for the past three weeks because of the humidity - it compromises the durability of my finishes. And when I am able to work, drying and curing times are more than double. Thanks for your patience. The boxes are done and depending on the weather, the actual shelves should be done early next week." So, just know that they did me a favor, they sell all pieces AS IS, and that in my personal experience, service is something that I should of felt lucky to have gotten. It took over 8 weeks to get them back, I always had to inquire to get an answer and now that I have them back, the finish has a strange texture to it. Overall, it was a poor experience and I won't go back. read more

Keep your expectations in check. My wife and I assumed there was going to be a lot of inventory. We drove an hour to Carver but were pretty disappointed to only find a very small shop and not much for selection. The stuff they had was nice, but just minimal. If you are looking for much more, try Home Essentials Boutique in Woodbury. Lots of refurb furniture and lots of arts/crafts. read more
