A nice little store. It calls itself a home furnishing shop but it's more of a miscellaneous home accessories store. Shonell's carries party plates, napkins, tissues, frames, dog- and cat-themed soap dishes, napkins, greeting cards, & humorous titled shopping list notepads. The owner also mentioned she was starting to carry shoes as well -- summer shoes -- cute and comfortable. In the back corner of the store were the jewelry and lotions and handcrafted soaps from Moondance, a Raleigh company. The minute I walked in the door, the owner came up to greet me, carrying the most adorable little dog, both welcoming me to the store. I was also told there were birthday cupcakes for the dog's birthday. How could you not like a store like that? For the short period I was in the store, the owner answered my questions, directed me to certain items, offered to make a deal on some candles and jewelry, and then very nicely wrapped the items I had designated as gifts. As I turned to leave, she reminded me of the birthday cupcakes as her dog slept in the cute little bed near the cash register. If you're looking for a unique gift for a reasonable price, and like being waited on by friendly, helpful people, this is the place. read more
