Their style blends the past and present and is inspired by the rustic yet elegant villas of the French countryside and the clean and down-to-earth feel of the American farmhouse style. By its beautiful showroom you would think it's prices are very expensive, but they are not. They are reasonable and comparable to Pier 1. They carry high quality, beautiful, and very unique items, like vases, watering cans, and framed prints. Many items that would make wonderful gifts. Their products are hand-selected and blend the past and present. The French Farmhouse also sells unique products, including handmade items by small business makers and European antiques. A visit to this elegant store, which opened in 2021 and is locally owned by Ashly Lawson, a Franklin County native, is a very enjoying experience. When I visited the store last week I was greeted by a very friendly elegant lady, who was very cordial and answered all my questions about the store and its products and unique gifts. I highly recommend that whenever you're in Downtown, Roanoke, you go visit the store. You will enjoy the visit, and maybe discover one of those home decoration items of your dreams.

Sooooooo cute!…read more I've been following this shop on Instagram for a while but haven't been able to come inside just yet bc they were closed during my last time in town. I love the location - right beside the newly opened and renovated Firehouse 1 building. These two cute spaces compliment each other well and with the beautiful hand-made TXTUR store next door - you can really get some beautiful decor and home goods between the two. This shop is small - but packed with beautiful items that fit the name - French shabby chic farmhouse. I saw a ton of things I'd love to buy. Candles, dinnerware, candlesticks, salt and pepper shakers and wells, t-shirts, a little jewelry, pillows, seasonal decor, etc. The gal behind the counter was very friendly and they have a website and sell gift cards. I found some CUTE fall pumpkin and halloween items to die for inside as well as a honey well and a cute small stoneware jewelry dish. Highly, highly recommend you stop in if you at all love French shabby chic! (Note - the space upstairs is also an event venue)

I went to Virginia Furniture Market's main store to purchase a lift chair for a family member…read more Jannie, the sales person, was very helpful and the price was cheaper than any others I had looked at. The actual purchase experience was good. I would give Jannie and my purchase experience a 4 star rating. Where I must reduce my experience rating is with the delivery! My loved one lives in an assisted living facility and that was made known to Jannie and the cashier at purchase. I received a text the day before delivery that the chair would be delivered to the assisted living facility between 3:30 and 5:30. The next day, I received a text at 1:00 saying the delivery would take place between 3:15 and 5:15 on that day. With no further communication with me, the delivery was made around 1:10 pm. This 2 hour early delivery caused a great commotion with my loved one who was confused because the delivery time was 3:30-5:30 as far as she knew, and disruption of the facility staff. The chair ended up being left in the hallway to be put into the room later (by maintenance staff at the facility). When I called to speak with someone at VFM about this, they could not tell me why the delivery was made so early and why there was no further communication with me prior to delivery. All they could say was that their delivery drivers were knocking out time on that day and deliveries were running early.

There are some places you can't conceive closing down. And "Now,Then And Again"…read moreis one of those places. Luckily the current owner, Wanda Henry, stepped in to save and preserve the retail space for local vendors, in 2013, when the Old Salem Mercantile, was slated to close. Now, this large artisan and vendor mall located next to the Pancake House in Salem, Virginia, hosts 80 individual venders and consignors, offering antiques, primitive decor, solid wood furniture, vintage collectibles, mid-century modern pieces, artworks, glassware, handmade jewelry, records, toys, and handmade items, among other interesting and amazing things. I had driven by it, in my pearl white Lexus, many times without even realizing it was there, due to its unasuming storefront with not too bright window displays. Its name, hard to decifer at first, "reflects the Shop's blend of goods from different eras -- spanning the present (now), the past (then), and items brought back to life or rediscovered (again)." When I first walked in the establishment, I was immediately impressed not only by the variety of the items, but also by their great condition and quality. Not only are the items very reasonably priced, but they "feature daily red-tag and yellow-tag discount sales with new inventory arriving constantly." They have a welcoming environment with knowledgeable and friendly staff who are always around and willing to help. One of them whom I asked a question about a painting I was interested in, stopped what he was doing, to calculate the discount I would get for it, and tell me until when I would be able to take advantage of this sale. Besides sales, they offer some other very unique services, such as professional local delivery and pickup, layaway plans, consignment opportunities for sellers, as well as periodic paint classes. While I was there, I was fortunate enough to meet Renee "Butch" Craft, a longtime manager of The Roanoker Restaurant, who took over ownership in 2004 and operated the landmark restaurant until it permanently closed in May 2022. Unfortunately, it closed down before I had an opportunity to visit and dine there, but I greatly enjoyed talking with her about the restaurant. Afterwards I found out about "81 Years of Food and Family," a commemorative cookbook and history book released in December 2022 following the unexpected closure of The Roanoker Restaurant. If you love the thrill of the hunt, I would highly recommend that you set aside a couple of hours to explore this place. It is a one-of-a-kind experience and who knows what treasures you will find to take home with you.
