Review: Eco Sustainable Locally Made Home Goods Store…read more I recently had the opportunity to explore Soul Source, a local gem that stands out for its commitment to eco-sustainability and the promotion of locally made home goods. Here is my comprehensive review of the store: 1. Ethical Sourcing and Local Impact: The store's dedication to sourcing products locally showcases a commitment to supporting the community and reducing the carbon footprint associated with transportation. The emphasis on ethical sourcing not only contributes to a positive impact on the environment but also helps in building a stronger local economy. 2. Product Range: The product range at Soul Source is diverse, offering a wide array of home goods that cater to various needs. From stylish furniture to unique decor items, and staple kitchen and living items. Each product reflects a conscious effort towards sustainable materials and production methods. The quality is evident, and the thoughtfulness behind each piece enhances the overall shopping experience. 3. Eco-Friendly Packaging: I appreciate the store's attention to detail, particularly in its choice of packaging. The use of eco-friendly materials not only aligns with the store's mission but also adds an extra layer of eco-consciousness for customers who value sustainability from start to finish. 4. Knowledgeable and Friendly Staff: The staff at Soul Source are not only friendly but also well-versed in the eco-sustainable ethos of the store. They are more than willing to share information about the products, materials used, and the impact of each purchase, creating an educational and enjoyable experience. They also have Maker's Spaces to meet the makers of products!! 5. Inviting Store Layout: The store's layout is well-designed, providing a pleasant shopping atmosphere. The thoughtful arrangement of products allows customers to explore various sections seamlessly. The inclusion of educational materials about sustainability practices further adds value to the overall shopping experience. 6. Community Engagement: What sets Soul Source apart is it's active engagement with the local community. Hosting workshops, events, or collaborating with local artisans not only fosters a sense of community but also aligns with the store's mission of promoting sustainability in all aspects of life. 7. Price and Value: While some eco-sustainable products might have a higher price point, the value derived from the quality, ethical production, and positive environmental impacts justifies the cost. The store offers a range of price points, ensuring accessibility for a broad customer base. In conclusion, Soul Source is a beacon of eco-consciousness in the local retail landscape. Its dedication to sustainability, from sourcing to packaging, combined with a diverse and high-quality product range, makes it a must-visit for those seeking to make environmentally conscious choices in their home good purchases. I highly recommend Soul Source for anyone looking to blend style with sustainability in their living spaces!

This is a wonderful home goods store with great products all made in the USA.

The items are well priced and there is everything you need for the home. The owner Christine is so personable and knowledgeable you just want to give her your business. This is a must see store to visit!!

The Renaissance Shoppe is a non-profit shop that benefits one of the keystones of our high quality…read moreof life in New London, the Visiting Nurses Association. The VNA's coverage in the Kearsarge/Lake Sunapee area is nearly 500 square miles and they provide an amazing job to elderly, hospice, and post-surgical patients who need their services. The Renaissance Shoppe is not a consignment store but made possible through the generous donations of people. The shop has two different sections across the parking lot, one warehouse-type building, the other in the walkout basement of the VNA facility. The warehouse building has primarily furniture, kitchenware and some appliances. The other locale has fine glass and crystal, porcelain, and limited, but fine furniture. With our entertainment schedule, we go through wine glasses like paper plates at a barbecue. So we're oftentimes at Renaissance looking for matching stemware and invariably we find it. At very, very reasonable prices, which is one of the reasons why this is such a great value. Sometime ago, we found a small glass computer table that we had been looking for at commercial outlets for hundreds of dollars, we paid a fraction at Renaissance. And they take all plastic for payments. Affable, nice personnel who are there as volunteers for a great cause.

Awesome shop, super nice staff, with a great mission. Have found lots of great items.read more

I usually hesitate to go into an Ethan Allen because (as a bargain shopper who is there to look at…read moretheir discount floor models) I am usually made to feel unwelcome. For example if you go to the Burlington or Natick Massachusetts stores the hungry designers will almost chase you out with torches & pitchforks. I have moved a lot because I'm a hobbyist flipper and that means I'm cheap but I buy a lot. What a pleasant surprise that the staff at the Bedford New Hampshire store let me treasure hunt and find this awesome chandelier!! The logistics manager Dean showed me that its paperwork shows that it used to be a display in the old, closed down Ethan Allen that is literally over the town line on the street I live on. I guess it wanted to come home. The designer Verlie was very nice to me and didn't make me feel like a scavenger for discount shopping. The Ethan Allen company could learn a lot from this location.

It did not come with leather pillows, as we were told by our sales lady that it would, so the owner made it right by having four fabric pillows of our choice made for us. Three months after having the sofa, the white leather on one of the cushions started wearing away. I emailed the owner, and he is promptly replacing the entire cushion at no charge. I just hope that we do not notice this issue on other pieces of the sofas, as we did not purchase the extended warranty. Comfy, handsome furniture. I enjoyed shopping here and the customer service is tremendous. I will buy fro here again, although the prices are high.
