What a sweet shop! There are no toy stores like this in Durham, it's definitely worth a drive to…read morePittsboro just to come here. There's everything you need from newborn baby rattles, to stuffed animals, to board games and puzzles and there's a nice selection within each category. It's so nice to support a local business instead of buying things online. I will be back!

A toy shop on the main street of Pittsboro - nice. Pittsboro Toys is a really cute shop with --…read moreyou guessed it -- all types of toys. Although it appears to be geared toward the younger set, there are still a few nuggets that span from babies to middle-school age. With hand puppets, science kits, stuffed animals, books (hello Velveteen Rabbit in a big book!), toy train sets, the store primarily stocks toys in the category closer to timeless than fad-of-the-day. Once you've spent the day visiting the art, antique and similar shops along Hillsboro, stop by Pittsboro Toys to experience something completely different. You'll probably find the perfect toy without having to fight the traffic or the crowds at a large shopping center. If you can't find exactly what you need, the manager will happily help.

Anybody know what's up with that? Otherwise - great selection, great prices, and very helpful staff.

Would not recommend them with high carat gold. Wanted to turn my 24k gold into other jewelry and…read morethey did a scratch test to test the gold. They stated it was 22k. As a jeweler, they should know scratch tests are not meant for higher carat gold but a xrf or pmi gun. Took it to a pawn shop for testing and even the jewel recycle and they both confirmed it was 24k. Them being jewelers, they should know this and not try to scam customers. Their work is amazing from what I have seen but I can not trust them. Beware.

From the moment I met one of the owners, this gem of a store got my attention. Before setting foot into the shop, I was impressed by their proactive, organic social media campaigns. The visit to Jewel Smith of Durham blew our minds. The attention to in-store customer service was most refreshing and sadly unique. They know how to make the jewelry purchase experience fun and memorable. Each piece is created by talented architects with impressive tools and timeless machinery. There are exquisite pieces that are one of a kind with gems carefully purchased from every part of our planet. I realized after my first visit to the local mall here how I'd never again attempt a purchase at a chain jeweler. It's not too late for Christmas with their fully staffed extended Holiday hours and a dedicated parking lot. And then there's always Valentines Day.

I love organizing options for shoe storage and the bamboo stackable shoe racks, as someone who hates shoes worn in my place I love these for storing shoes at the door to avoid tracking germs and dirt throughout the house.

We met with Lisa to discuss ideas on remodeling our 1990s-era bathrooms because we were unsure of how to proceed. Lisa was able to present us a new vision, rescaling our plans and saving us a significant amount of money while still achieving our goal of creating an elegant, updated look and enhancing the function of the spaces. The savings on our bathroom remodels will allow us to embark on other redecorating projects that we thought were beyond our reach. We are thrilled! Lisa has amazing insights into melding function with beauty, and she has an appreciation of and respect for collectibles and antiques, and how best to display them to tell our family story. She has extensive resources to help us realize our vision. We are looking forward to continuing to work with Lisa to enhance our entire home, thereby enriching our family life. We are so pleased to have her as our guide in this journey! Kristine W.
