Frequently Asked Questions
Please take a look at commonly asked questions below. Not seeing your question answered? Fill out the form at the bottom of the page.
What payment methods do you accept?
I accept cash and card. The credit card processor is Square in store and invoices are sent to your email for non-store purchases.
Do you deliver?
Yes, I offer delivery at a fee for locations within one hour of our store. See our Deliver page for more information.
Do you buy items?
Yes, I buy items solo or in bulk lots. I will also pick estates, barns, private sales, etc. upon invite. I pay fairly with both sides' best interest in mind.
When can I pick up my items?
Pre-purchased items require an appointment. I ask that you give me 24-48 hours to be available. You can also wait and join me during one of the open shopping days.
How long do I have to pick up my furniture?
1-2 weeks, unless otherwise specified. During peek busy seasons I may need to move items more quickly from the storefront. Items have the possibility of being re-sold without a refund if left beyond the 2 week pick up window.
Can I purchase an item and pick it up later?
Always yes, as long as the item is paid for in full.
If I see you at the shop can I just drop by?
Sorry, no. I don't have a "drop by" or “by chance” shop. Please reference the open shopping dates or schedule an appointment. Appointments are reserved for listed furniture items and pre-purchased items.
Do you ship?
I can ship small items but not all small items. Availability to ship depends on the season and complexity of the item. I do not ship furniture but will work with a shipper of your choice. There are many independent shippers and most often people use Uship.
When is the Storefront open?
Storefront hours vary monthly. Check out the Open Shopping Days page for the most up-to-date openings.
Do you offer booths for rent?
No, I do not. While I work closely with a handful of people, ultimately the arranging and pricing is all me. This ensures the shop keeps the look that my clients have grown to know and love.
How long do I have to pick up my small purchase?
As soon as you're able, but there is no timeline. There is a storage area for sold items at the shop where items are stored until picked up.
Where do I pick up my items?
At the storefront by appointment or during one of the open shopping dates.
Can I return my item?
Due to the nature of the items, I cannot offers returns. After an item leaves the premises, I am not responsible for its integrity.
Do you host estate sales or have a company to recommend?
I do not host estate sales at the moment. I recommend the following companies:
Christy's Estate and Moving Sales
Kim with My House to Your Home
*Feel free to contact me with any questions.
Do you hold items?
Not typically. Due to the amount of consignment I do this becomes tricky to manage. You’re always welcome to see an item first before committing but it should be purchased within 1-3 days of contact. I am always happy to send additional photos and videos. Items can be paid for in full and picked up with 1-2 weeks for furniture and no timeline for smalls.
