My husband and I have been to the newish friends of the library book store a few times and had neutral experiences most times. The selection is not what it used to be and the prices are also a bit out of touch.... Today was disappointing for other reasons... volunteers Amy Pat and one more woman were loudly gossiping about everyone and anything they could as well as making extremely ignorant statements about widely divisive topics . We happen to belong to a few of the groups of people that they were gleefully passing judgement on. I'm glad they are enjoying their freedom of speech but I'm disappointed in the lack of manners. It created an awkward environment where we felt very uncomfortable and we don't feel welcome to return.

If you in the market for antiques, vintage items, collectables, need a special gift, or just want…read moreto shop while in Franklin, then you need to stop into Bryant's Antique Mall. Bryant's is an expansive 3-story antique mall spanning over 20,000 square feet. There are 55 individual vendors here, so I recommend looking around at every exhibit first before making your decision to buy, because you might find related items in other vendor exhibits. Items that sparked my interest were the variety of carpenter tools, axes, extended drill bits, table mount meat grinders, and bowie knives available. They have some really nice furniture, and wooden Indian sculptures here; old-time scales, a ton of street signs and other signage, toys, vintage lamps, animal skins, taxidermy, and so much more. Out of all the shopping we had time for while in Franklin, we spent most of our time here. We were in a bit of a rush because we were on a schedule to visit Cherokee NC then Gatlinburg TN in the same day. The staff are friendly, welcoming, and helpful. They have restrooms available but for some reason they were closed to the public the day we were there, so we had to backtrack to find a restroom elsewhere. All-in-all, I recommend stopping in if you are in the area. There is a lot to see here and will keep you occupied for a while.

Wherever we go, we like to "shop" at antique/thrift/consignment type businesses. In the process we…read moreoften are treated to mental trips down childhood lanes when we see vintage objects with which we were familiar as children. And, there are those times when we find "must have treasures" that make us smile. This afternoon, we stepped into this wonderful little shop, located along Main Street in Andrews, NC. It was so welcoming with flowers and fall decorations outside. When we walked in, we discovered the most eye-appealing displays and assortment of nice vintage clothing, artwork, toys, glassware, china, jewelry, furniture, lamps, stained glass and so very much more. It was definitely the most well-presented and organized shop of its kind we had every walked into. There were no crowded nooks or side rooms, we didn't have to fear bumping into anything and everything was tastefully arranged and displayed. There was no musty smell and pleasant music was playing. The owner, JoAnne Page, and her husband (her helper) have owned and built this business over the past few years. JoAnne has a degree in interior design which explained the eye-appealing and comfortable atmosphere. She was obviously picky with what she accepted and displayed. There is no cheap kitsch or gauche items to be found. It's a classy place to be sure. She told me she researches each item she accepts to try to find its story. She hears the items "talk" and tell tales of days gone by. I thought this was a unique way to breathe life into her merchandise. If you love to shop these types of stores, you'll definitely want to put this one on your list whenever you chance to find yourself in this sleepy little hamlet, tucked into the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains.

This was my first visit to Cashiers, NC and was excited to explore the town. This little shopping center was my first stop. I went into Nora &Co and the lady working behind the counter never looked up. I said a friendly "Good Morning " and was returned with an unfriendly reply. Almost as if I bothered her. I looked around the store was very cute. I told her how excited I was to be there for the first time. I asked about the layout of the town and where most of the shops were. She seriously looked annoyed (or that I wasn't good enough to be in there) and said "there is a rack outside with a magazine that has maps". Wow! She missed the perfect opportunity to say welcome , we are glad you chose to come in and to also give information about the town. It that point I decided not to purchase anything and leave. It was very uncomfortable. The other shops were all very nice and friendly
