    Locale: On the edge…read moreof commercial sector of old downtown Pittsboro in the intersection between Hillsboro and Salisbury Street, there is a corner store that focuses on antique/vintage furniture and decorative arts peppered with a few current items. The store's ethos focuses on sustainability, but not just for the sake of selling "old things" but rather as a replacement for "new things" and to prevent such items from accumulating in a landfill as they clean and repair (when needed) items before setting them on display. As you walk toward the store you are greeted with a welcoming blue-green colored sign, announcing that you have arrived at your destination. Ambiance: On a hot and sunny summer day, it is very nice to be hit with a wall of cool air as you walk through the door and begin to browse. Not too cold, but just right. Don't you just hate walking into a freezer when you're dressed for the beach? Don't worry about that here. Unlike many antique/vintage goods stores, this one has plenty of room to walk without bumping into other people or items. Also unlike many similar businesses, the items are displayed very neatly and with thought. For example, a 1930s vanity and a Victorian armoire were appropriately staged with accessories that would have been used originally. This helps design-challenged people with ideas on how to personalize the item after purchase. In the Bag: The assortment of items runs the gamut from Victorian pieces to a more contemporary selection, although the bulk of the items are early 20th century to most of the "younger" pieces being more than 30 years old. There were also some Mid-Century modern pieces like the patio set, and the dinette. Additionally there were some items that harken back to the time when North Carolina was mostly an agricultural state and these items provide a first-hand glimpse at how life was at that time, such as the vintage enamel chamber pot. On the back wall there is a selection of vintage housewares, and collectable glasses. Behind the cash register is a doorway that leads to a stock room that is filled with merchandise, likely not accessible to the public. So although the sales floor has somewhat fewer items than many similar stores, because the layout was thoughtfully planned, there is plenty of backup merchandise in the case where many items are sold at once. Considerations: This store provides its clientele with unique and vintage items that you can actually use in your home. The selection feels curated and gives the impression that the store owner has given consideration to the selection and presentation, which gives this place a polished and professional feel. The prices are quite good, so you can expect items to be priced well lower than new items (in "normal" non-high end stores) albeit with the better build-quality that cannot be accessibly found today. If you can, I highly recommend this place to do furniture shopping. You may find something here that you will like, and you will be helping the environment by keeping vintage furniture out of landfills.

Although exploration is probably a good enough reason to visit a store like this, I found myself here while a few of the artists with works displayed were having a conversation about their work, the setup and displays. That was a pretty eye-opening experience: they're just like everyone else. Who'd have thought? For the detail and work involved in some of this work, the prices were consistent with the area. Everyday people.

It's about a 40 minute drive from downtown Raleigh NC without traffic, but only 25 minutes from Chapel Hill or downtown Apex, NC. Any direction you drive to Pittsboro from you cross beautiful country side, forests, hills and rivers, and coming from the East, (Apex, Cary, Holly Springs, Fuquay Varina), you're in real luck, you get to cross over Jordan Lake twice. Pittsboro retains its small town USA feel, and the Joyful Jewel is just across the street from the historic Chatham County Courthouse which houses a historical museum open 2 - 3 times a week. But the Joyful Jewel is open 7 days a week. I have visited hundreds of times over the 12 years I have been living in central North Carolina because I so enjoy walking about the store, as if it were a museum, and taking in the colors, imagination, creativity and inspiration. Artists take turns in the store, so you get to meet an artist whose work is there. Mariah Wheeler is the owner, with her husband DG Chandler. Both are jewelers, but work in other forms as well. The affordability of art and fine crafts is one of the best discoveries for me, making a visit to the Joyful Jewel even better than a museum, since I may be able to take home the piece of art that really speaks to me. And if you're looking to learn more about local artists, Mariah is very well connected, not only to artist who paint, and potters, and glass artists, but also local writers, poets and musicians. Discover Pittsboro and definitely visit the Joyful Jewel.

My husband specifically requested this to be a surprise for Valentine's Day, yet I received multiple phone calls and a voicemail beforehand asking if someone would be available to accept the delivery. The flowers were being delivered to a place of business, which should have made that obvious from the address. While the product was excellent, the handling of the delivery took away from what was meant to be a special surprise. I hope this feedback helps improve the delivery experience, because the floral design itself was truly lovely.

BEWARE: I ordered flowers on blossomflowerdelivery.com and it's a scam company. DO NOT ORDER from this company, they stole the name of this local flower company and deliver a really cheap flower arrangement. I paid over $70 for a Christmas Center Piece and they delivered a centerpiece that looked to be about $20 and said they had to substitute flowers because of flowers being out of season, which is part of their scam. You can see the flowers I ordered off the internet and what was actually delivered, super embarrassing. Also, when I tried to contact the company, I was on hold and then got disconnected, not surprised.

I'm wasn't sure what connection a tree had to this…read morestore, except the tree for which it's named is common to the southeast and this shop has works from artists and artisans from around the area. If that's not the connection, I give up. Still, the name makes it stand out from other like-styled shops. It's an open space shop, with wide aisles and lots of glass shelves and racks to keep the light flowing throughout. It makes it easy to see the item in a non-distracting setting. Things are mixed throughout so you'll find similar items all around the store. There's a mix of media here, art created by the two owners along with pottery, jewelry, prints, scarves, and the like made by others with whom they share a common view. The goods are contemporary for the most part, but with a nice variety. For a unique gift, or to claim ownership of an original work of art, you'll find this is a good place to start, or stop. You can probably find something less expensive at a similar-themed place, but what you get may be more cookie-cutter style.
