Wow! We are so impressed with this store, with customer service, and with the washing machine we…read moregot and had installed today. AND I have washed two loads of clothes with great outcomes (CLEAN) that surpassed the more expensive Maytag we bought from Appliance Mart in Cookeville and had repaired twice and it still never worked and were told if the part went out again it might be a year before a new one would come in. HUH?? Even the delivery person today commented...if it was that bad why did they not replace it? Who knows. AT any rate that is water over the dam and we are really pleased with this store (Carlos recommended the model he thought we needed and not the most expensive he thought we would buy) AND delivered it within a week AND IT WORKS really WELL. IT WORKS- clean clothes for the first time in the two months we used that Maytag that didn't work. Such a pain. Go to the Sparta TV and Appliance store- you will not be disappointed!!!

I would have given them 5 stars but I having either 1 or at most 3 of any one garment was a let…read moredown. I also feel, not letting people know that there was another location within walking distances made me feel like the reason there where so few of any 1 garment was these were leftovers I'm paying full price for! I'm learning pigeon forge and the whole shopping at the island tends to be a tourist trap. I love going there and we probably always will just for the beautiful mountain scenery but I've learned my lesson as far as shopping goes. We don't live far so people have been saying things about the shopping traps for a few years now. I do love the pieces I got but I just felt wronged by the omission of the other location with very similar pieces on full racks.

First of all, if you haven't taken an afternoon to explore downtown Mcminnville, do yourself a…read morefavor and just go! There are so many boutiques, delicious restaurants(don't even try on Sunday and Monday) and stores with antiques and little treasures. It's absolutely adorable! Now, this store is SO packed with beautiful things that you will want to take home. If you're on a budget I recommend their neighbor, Renewed Creations. There are beautiful and reasonably priced items there and it's so fun to walk around and take a look at the variety of items. Southern Traditions is more high-end and has great gifts if you want to impress some of your fancy friends. Personally, I'm champagne taste on a beer budget, so I just love to window shop. But around Christmas time I just had to go see what goodies they had and found the most adorable things and not at all out of my budget. So there ya go. I also love to take friends from out of town because they love all of the home goods.

Whenever I need decorating help, Valerie Kelsey Wells of Sassy Southern Designs is the first person…read moreI call. Her many years of experience are invaluable. I know what I like, and once she creates something I can say, "Well, of course that's what it should look like!" but getting to that point seems impossible without her. Sometimes her suggestions are deceptively simple, like moving two pictures closer together to increase the impact, and that makes me realize that even the simple things can use an expert eye cast over them. Other observations, like pointing out that a room has a lot of hard/straight lines, so bringing in organic materials or soft fabrics will help it feel warmer, are things I would never think of. Another thing I routinely turn to Valerie for is specialty pieces. She did a fantastic job helping me display family sports memorabilia in a way that highlighted the uniqueness of the objects, as well as making the display beautiful enough to fit seamlessly into our living space. She created a beautiful lampshade using antique crochet and lace, and it charmingly lights up a dark corner of my hallway. She has made several wreaths for my front door, as well as one for my kitchen, and I get compliments on them regularly. Her creativity is unmatched. I once saw a lampshade she had made using strips of old negatives, so when the light shown through, the beautiful images lit up. I am very picky, but Valerie always comes through with a fantastic idea that never crossed my mind. I always say, "You are so smart!" at least once during my consultations with her! I highly recommend her work.
