I am extremely disappointed with my experience as a vendor at The Painted Tree. Despite joining…read moreover a month ago at the peak of Chrismas shopping, I have had zero sales, which is incredibly frustrating. The lack of foot traffic is alarming; it seems like hardly anyone is visiting the shop. The store's marketing is inadequate; I've never seen any promotions on social media to attract customers.When I requested a two-foot longer booth at the end-cap, I expected some accommodation or discount, but none was offered. I regret becoming a vendor here and feel that my investment has not been worthwhile, especially being tied to a 12-month contract. All of the staff are very friendly, however more work needs to be done by management or the head office to bring in more traffic. I have dedicated nearly $700 towards the purchase of displays and decor. I have items ranging from $2.99 upwards to $129.99, all of which are handmade.I can't recommend The Painted Tree to other vendors unless they improve their marketing strategies and attract more customers.

Such a hidden gem! I say hidden cause it's a bit tucked back in a strip mall. So I'm so glad…read moresomeone told me about this place. This store has hundreds of vendors under one roof. These vendor's sell everything from crafty items to furniture, antiques, clothes, collectibles & more. There are just so many vendors & unique/cool items to look at. Every time I have been here I have never walked out empty handed. I would say to put out at least an hour and 1/2 to 2 hours to come and browse. Store seams to be very clean and well kept. Everyone there is very helpful and nice. As for pricing it's just your own knowledge. Some items I see are over priced but a lot of times vendors have great sales. I also highly recommend coming to their events like ladies night, Galentine's & more. They really put an extra great shopping experience those days with treats, sales, refreshments, live music and more.

I see stopped in today because their Instagram feed is constantly updated with beautiful things,…read morebut also recently they've been sharing some of their fall and Halloween goodies. On my way back to Chicago from Madison I was trying to make it in time to stop here and see what goodies I might want. I did indeed leave with some things and can't wait to put them up come October! But the best part was chatting with the shopkeeper. Lorraine is a gem! I spent more time chatting with her than shopping (I was able to pick out what I wanted straightaway!). Luckily there was no one else in the shop whilst I was there and I didn't keep her too long since I left at 5:00 exactly (quitting time). I will 100% be back because they have too many beautiful things that I want in my house.

Resellers/price gougers are bad enough, but those people bought at retail. They don't have business agreements direct with Kellytoys to buy at wholesale prices.
