Furniture is wonderfully refurbished in-house by people who are passionate about wood, because every piece shines. You will pay top dollar for the right to own just about anything from the store. Price as marked is as is - no negotiating. Best time to go if you want a deal is during a 'sidewalk sale'. Be ready to make a quick decision on items you're interested in though because people line up to buy your item if you decline it. No time to change your mind! Four stars instead of five due to high price points and lack of sales offered.

Beautiful, delicate interior design,…read morea sweet patio where you can relax with a coffee and a pastry, the whole vibe is calm and cozy, which I appreciated so much. Now, the real star: the gluten-free baked goods. We tried four different things, cookies included, and honestly? I was stunned. The flavor, the softness, the balance, nothing felt like a "gluten-free compromise." It tasted like the real deal, maybe even better. Not overly sweet, not dry, not crumbly, just genuinely delicious pastries that happen to be gluten-free. I don't know what magic they're working in that kitchen, but this is easily the best gluten-free bakery I've come across. A must-visit, no question.

When I inquired more specifically, I learned that those were not "the Dubai chocolates." I appreciate the sales associate's honesty. They have a plethora of wall hangings. It is quite impressive the sayings they have on some of their wall hangings. If you are looking for some unique hearts for Valentine's day, Sugarboo is your go to place. The staff is southern hospitality friendly. They welcome any questions and if you are looking for something specifically, they will let you know exactly where it is in the store. This store is very affordable. Importantly, it has unique items that you will not find in every store you frequent.

From pillows to placemats to notepads to candles to sweaters and shirts and comforters and pet items. Oh my! This store has so many fun products that are great gift giving ideas at reasonable prices. I visited from California on a work trip and super bummed I didn't bring a bigger suitcase because I would've bought so many gifts to give. I believe this store is female owned, and have store locations throughout the south. Their staff is sweet and accommodating, and every gift comes with a beautiful gift wrapping that's complementary. They have plenty of parking as they are part of a mall and there is tons of parking stalls. Can't wait to come back and visit this store on my next work trip. It will definitely be on my list of things to do when I visit Austin, Texas and in the mood for shopping.

In fact, all their Austin signs and Keep Austin Weird signs were a draw to venture into the store. Austin's Furniture depot is located on Burnet Road and offers a unique mix of new furniture, statement pieces, and items from local artists. This is not your typical furniture store. Surprisingly, the Austin signs are quite affordable. I asked Shawn one of the store managers, what do folks do with all these signs. He responded by saying the put them in their homes and businesses. One of the eye-catching items in the addition to the signage, are the abstract and unusual artwork covered in shiny glass. I love abstract anything, therefore, I was very intrigued. They also had some individuals featured in the pictures with bold and colorful features. Shawn was friendly, knowledgeable, and very pleasant. He asked what I was looking for and took time to point out some potential selections. It was an overall very engaging and pleasant visit. Will definitely drop in again...

They also have a large selection of chachkies which are a little higher priced than say At Home. My boyfriend and I visited on a Saturday so they were a bit busy and didn't seem to have too much employees working but I feel like that's pretty much everywhere right now. Definitely check out HomeSense if you haven't already! They have some really cute quality pieces if you are into home decor.

When I saw that this was right around the corner from the hotel I was staying at, I made sure to carve out at least 90 minutes to walk through the store and touch every single thing. The staff was friendly and helpful and answered all the questions I had. I personally wasn't offered a beverage, but I did hear them offering beverages to people as they entered. If I had been thirsty, I would have been brave and asked for a beverage myself. The store is beautifully designed and laid out, the furniture. The high quality I always expected it to be. The colors beautiful and bright. This really was just a dream come true for me to be able to browse through the store of my design fantasies.

She helped curate a wide selection of accent pillows for my formal living room and even directed me to a few sale items for my outdoor spaces. Kristan enjoyed the whimsy of my aesthetic and got right into the mode of doll house decor.

I left with a fantastic assortment of pillows, (along with a pair of foo dogs) I'd coveted since summer's start.
