I am grateful to Rose, the proprietor, for her indepth instruction, skill, and professional experience with chalk painting. She is so good to work with!

Thank you Rose!

I so wanted to browse and check out every little corner but with little ones in tow maybe some other time. Beelined to the paint shelf, debated on a few colors... so many pretty ones to choose from. I also had the kids picked out their fav colors in sample size cans to paint our next project. Brought home 4 different colors, a few brushes, clear wax finish and a paint roller. Annie Sloan is not cheap... I def splurged. The owner was so sweet, gave me an impromptu class on chalk paint 101. Said to give her a call if I have any questions. Can't wait to build my paint color collection.

I wanted to keep my olive oil on my counter in it so I asked if there was lead in the paint and was assured no lead. Today I was about to wash it before using and I could see something dark inside, I looked inside with a flashlight and could see that the ceramic coating did not coat the inside completely, about 1/3 was raw uncoated, so I cannot use it. Highly disappointed considering what I paid for it. If you go there check carefully before purchasing. Now I can only use it for display, not what I wanted it for.

The store boasts original & one-of-a-kind jewelry, beauty & art pieces from American artists & from organizations that help fund charitable causes so your little "just because" shopping spree can make a difference all while giving you some retail therapy...it's truly a shopper's delight..! Like the store - the ladies at this fabulous shop are all so attentive, friendly & cheerful. They gleefully want to know where you're from & what brought you into town & their great customer service skills should be bottled & sold like their unique & diverse beautiful items...always love chatting with each of them...! So if you're around the area, stop by & do some "just because" shopping...you'll be happy you did..!

We purchased bedroom furniture from Rattan Wicker and Cane and it…read morecame in defective. The owners did not want to take it back and it was a very tense situation. I was sad because we like to shop locally but their customer service was so hostile. This was 2 years ago. Recently we decided to try the store again for outdoor furniture, however, the owner did not want to work with us since we had returned the defective furniture before. I was shocked that she did not have enough confidence in her suppliers to insure that more furniture would not come in defective. As an interior designer, I am also amazed that local stores do not go the extra mile to please their customers. That is why it hurts the local economy.

He never apologized. The incident was reported to store manager, A.J. Martinez, who himself, had a bad attitude. Martinez told us to get three estimates for the damage; he took photographs, but said, "You are not allowed to see the video footage ...," which showed Raymond's reckless negligence. The damage to the truck was estimated at: $3,332.94; $2,530.02; & $5,062.77. Once presented with these estimates, Martinez refused to interact with us. He continues to refuse to return our calls, meet with us, or respond to our messages left for him in-person at the store and on the phone. He is, by far, the worst manager we have ever met. We like LOWES, but this guy needs to go! And as far as Raymond is concerned, he is totally incompetent. When you're at the Venice LOWE's location, do yourself a real favor, and avoid these two like the plague!
