Great art and gifts and trinkets made by local creatives, this shop is just filled to the brim with amazing things. I could spend all day looking and discovering and knowing the people behind the art, jewelry, etc. etc. Plus, there is a dedicated gallery in the back. Plus plus plus, they are starting up classes and workshops lead by the artists. It's just amazing. Go go go!

This trip I immediately gravitated to handmade brooms. This artist dropped off his brooms this summer. I picked up a small one to display near my door. My son found a necklace with the plague doctor. The owner is available and incredibly friendly. Speaking with him is part of the shopping experience. We will be back! My family really enjoyed this stop and left complimenting the store.

The owner's did a great job of getting the place back on it's feet; very clean and well organized displays. The store is a mix of consignments, old/new thrifts, furniture and housewares in particular. There is a section of the store dedicated to religious materials which also offers weekly prayer / discussion groups.

We were greeted immediately by the owner's husband who told us that the store recently reopened after a ceiling collapse this past winter. The shop is impeccably clean, well-organized and has artful displays. Actually, it looks more like a regular shop than a thrift/consignment shop! We were told the merchandise is half consigned items and half retail items. One section of the shop is dedicated to religious items and we were told that weekly meetings occur in that section for prayer and discussion. There is a wide variety of items including furniture, paintings, home decor items, clothing, candles, soaps, jewelry and much more! Parking is plentiful in a dedicated lot.

It's a sure bet you'll find something when you go in, whether it's a gift for a friend, or something for yourself. Betty's is one of those cozy, feel good stores. It's a must at the holidays or anytime! Parking is conveniently located on the side. The entrance is accessed via sidewalk and steps. Note: this is a converted house, not a large retail space. This makes it quaint and cozy, but may not be convenient for the handicapped. There are lots of pictures online if you want to see the items they offer, as well as the adorable shop itself.

I'd describe this store as a boutique catering to women with clothing, jewelry and home decor; however, they do offer children's items and a small area with men's personal items. I was excited to see various Duke Cannon soaps. My husband loves this brand and I grabbed one to save for Father's Day. Another area made for anyone is the kitchen area with decor and food items, including hot jellies and seasonings. For me I picked up a small jar of honey to go with cheese and crackers. I also snagged a glass marked "The Good Shit" which I'm keeping for my best friend. He'll appreciate the humor and having his special glass during happy hour. I experienced friendly service and watched others get the same. I shared my email and phone number for specials and promotions. I loved that they offer gift wrapping, regardless of the items size or price. I'd picked out 3 small gifts and that look nicely put together. This is a great perk!

We ended up purchasing a Noritake dish set, and they wrapped it so carefully and securely for our trip home. I was also impressed by their faux flower and greenery section. There was a lot of variety, and the pricing felt very reasonable for the quality. It's not always easy to find faux greenery that looks natural and well-made, and they had some lovely options. If you enjoy home décor, antiques, or unique design finds, this shop is definitely worth a visit.

Was in store yesterday and one of my fascinator's was missing flowers. Brought to attention of ladies at checkout and very rude in response stating "well they get tried on and it could've fallen off and swept up". Ok so could these be somewhere in your store? Nope basically thrown away. Do not take your fascinators or hats here to sell as they evidently can't protect your items and attitudes are they don't care!!! Won't patronize this store now for no apology or any kind of empathy or compassion. Took my other fascinator out so that one wouldn't be destroyed. The least they could have done is apologize!

I ran into this store by accident and after visiting, here's what I understand. Ballard Designs is…read morea company owned by Williams Sonoma, and has a similar feel to it as Pottery Barn. This is the first outlet in Louisville and was originally announced as a temporary location; however, it must be doing well enough to have stayed in place. It took over the space vacated by the now bankrupt Steinmart. There is nothing fancy about this spot. It very much feels like a dumping site for furniture and is organized by type/room. It is a land of rejected, broken pieces. The signage attempts to excite you - 50% off or more - but then you flip the tag to find out it is still outrageously overpriced on top of being broken. The facility is large, and most workers were either at the front desk or helping people wedge items into their trucks. I appreciated watching the quiet nature of the staff today as a customer carried on a conversation with the customer service team via her cell phone. She was a lot to handle and you could tell they didn't want to escalate the situation. Apparently this spot has a following. Bring a large pocketbook ... and duct tape.
