Instead, I was blindsided by what can only be described as a full-scale North Pole invasion... in early November. There were trees. There were lights. There were carols. I swear a ceramic Santa winked at me while I was still trying to process the fact that it was 72 degrees outside and my jack-o'-lantern was still holding on. Don't get me wrong -- I love Christmas as much as the next caffeine-fueled Midwesterner, but I'd at least like to digest my Halloween candy before I'm peer-pressured into buying an elf-themed potholder.

The Primitive Porch was a place my friend knew I'd love to shop and she was correct. The store is…read moretwo levels and filled to the brim with well organized merchandise for those who enjoy primitives, country, rustic, seasonal, and farmhouse decor. Note, candles are burning and the aroma can be a bit much for sensitive noses such as my husband. I had no problems but just be aware. Primitive Porch just moved into this location in February, 2018, which use to be the home of Lighthouse Christian Bookstore. They kept the book section and Cafe from the Lighthouse Bookstore. Smoothies and sandwiches are just steps away from the shopping. You can easily spend an hour plus browsing all the unique pieces throughout this large store. Seasonal items are gorgeous, primitive everything (well, almost), all types of candles, beautiful quilts, florals, pottery, shelves, cabinets, furniture and so much more will keep you busy. The second floor has a large women's boutique with a dressing room and even more home decor. Jewelry and scraves can be found downstairs by checkout. Outdoors, by the entrance, is patio furniture and garden decor plus many cement statues. The staff was so helpful and friendly! The prices are reasonable and affordable. Terrific shop for gift giving for any occasion.

The woman at the Martinsville Candy Kitchen suggested I try this place just a couple of doors down…read morewhen I asked her if she sold candy dishes. Sure enough I found what I was looking for. This store is a hybrid of antique store, gift store and a flea market booth. It has a wide variety of items and many different rooms of them. The shopkeeper found a glass dish with a lid made in green glass. It works perfectly for my use and looks antique which is not what I was originally looking for but makes it even better. This store, Candy Kitchen and the Come N Get It restaurant have really opened my eyes to the downtown area of Martinsville. I'm sure they are more discoveries waiting for me.

As I entered the shop I felt a warm, cozy, relaxing feeling take over. The beautiful mixture of colors, the fragrance of the candles, the textures of the throws, fabrics and accent pieces felt like a big hug. I have a great friend who has mastered the primitive decor and her home is second to none. She has an eye for decorating and her home feels extremely welcoming like Berries and Ivy. The owner and staff are helpful, friendly and open to questions. Whether your looking for accent pieces, a new settee or the perfect gift their willing to help. Candles, lighting, throws, furniture, rugs, crocks, florals, signs and so much more will hold your interest throughout the shop. Regardless of your home decor, I recommend a visit to Berries and Ivy. You'll walk away with great ideas for your home or great gift ideas.

Outside of the store is filled with cute little succulents, plants, & the cutest things to plant them in & on. We love the ladies who work at the store. They are always so nice & helpful. Mom saw wanted this cute tin watering can that was a fountain. She told one of the ladies behind the desk. The lady said it was their last one but she could have it. Within 10 minutes the fountain was boxed up & in the back of my car. I also found an incredible smelling candle which was apricot & chai. So that candle also came home with me.

Finally got help when we said out loud "Maybe we can find someone who works here". No real help was offered. We asked about bedroom furniture and were told that they mostly work with designers. Oh, really? We looked at area rugs and window coverings, but again, no assistance was offered even though there was absolutely no one else in the store. So...maybe we don't look like we can afford their furnishings? Maybe we aren't their type of customer? We definitely felt like they had no time for us. We took our business across town, purchased everything we wanted at Distinctive Furnishings and even ordered some of the exact items we saw at Etc from Distinctive Furnishings at a lower price point. Beautiful store, but the customer service is sorely lacking. We won't sully their store with our presence again.
