Lovely things, excellent work -- all done with soul. And the best people to engage with, so kind,…read moreso pleasant, so interesting. Janna understood my style instantly, and identified the best pieces for me after the desk I was originally interested in was taken. Finishing this desk was a battle royale due to the veneer that they did not realize was originally there, but they did it! And Scott personally tapped in every one of these tacks around the chair. These people do not quit. Janna also walked me through some detailing of a vintage piece that has been in my family since forever and distressing of a picture frame -- as in, countless messages back-and-forth until I felt completely comfortable. And it came out with fabulous results. On top of the top-notch work, it's wonderful to support a small business. I have loved every moment that I have been in touch with Janna and Scott, and look forward to more with these people I now consider friends. Do yourself a favor and check out Joyful Heart Reclaimed!

If you are interested in consigning furniture or any other item for that matter with West Howard…read moreAntiques, think twice. I consigned high-end, expensive furniture with the firm. I was promised a contract for the consignment. I never received one. I was told I would get a receipt for the value of the property in the event it was not sold after 60 days, at which time I could retrieve and donate it to a chaitable organization. My furniture was never marketed on the firm's website. An occasional chair was sold within two weeks of my depositing it with the firm! I was never told of the sale, despite calling several times and viewing the website. Six weeks later, I learned of the sale when I visited the firm and asked if anything had been sold. I was told nothing had been sold. However, one of the owners then proceeded to go into her computer and told me the chair had, in fact, been sold. I had a verbal confrontation with the male co-owner who had promised me a contract and a statement of the property's value. He told me to retrieve the furniture or he would dispose of it. I called Habitat for Humanity, which agreed to accept the furniture as a donation from me. When Habitat picked up the furniture, the owner of the firm finally provided a statement of the value of the property! I am certain he did so because I told him I am an attorney during our verbal confronation. I firmly believe the owners never intended to market my property and wanted to claim the property as their own after 60 days had passed. Then, their intention was to sell the property and retain the proceeds from the sale. This firm is not listed with the Better Business Bureau for a reason!

The Store Reporter called Homesense, " A Home Goods store on steroids. " I really like shopping at…read moreHome Goods, so I couldn't wait to visit Homesense. Located directly behind Target on Bou Avenue, Homesense is a large store that carries a variety of furniture, lamps, decorations, and kitchen wear. The store is new and the people who worked there couldn't have been nicer. I found a number of items that were not clearly marked, so I had to ask for help. There is a large number of cashiers, so you don't have to wait in long lines. The only problem I found were the prices. Most of the items I was looking at were priced close to the retail price. I really was looking for a better price. The store is clean, well stocked, and has courteous sales people. I am sure that I will be back.

Homesense Rockville needs to review better customer service practices! I asked to see the lamp on the top shelf that's listed as $79 and a sales associate had to get a ladder to get it down! Then you get to the check out and I'm being told by the manager Matt that a customer place that tag on it! Makes no practical sense! It's on the very top self misleading customers! Made sure I uploaded a photo! As a general rule I don't let no bad experience stop me from shopping instead I write a negative review!

I made a quick trip in and out of the shop but everything in there was so cute! It looked like they were working on a project when I stepped in. I was able to receive more help from the owner in person- apparently the formula for paint changed for the "old white" from 2015~~. She guided me to what she thought would best match the old "old white". I purchased my paint and was on my way. I went in during the pandemic. Although I was the only customer, everyone I saw had a mask and was doing the right thing. It bugs me so much when businesses don't implement safety precautions when "no one is looking". Will definitely come back for paints and to browse around when I have more time!
