Pandemic review: I was familiar with many of the products in…read morethis small shop from before there was a bricks & mortar store. I had purchased various of their wares at pop-ups or other shops over the last few years. But I learned from a friend that they had an actual shop (and while it is not open at the moment), they are selling from their website. Ordering was super easy and they have a nice variety of items. I like that you can shop by cause as well as by type. You can't actually smell the candles from the website, but the descriptions are really good! I also like that if you finish a candle, you can return the empty clean glass to the store for a small credit.

Overpriced eye candy! I am unsure of the history of this brand, but there are only 2 locations in…read moreall of the US, and both are in the suburb of Metairie. They do have quite a selection of home goods, furniture and decorations, but all of it is quite over priced in my opinion. There is a large shared parking lot, and the store is in the middle of a strip mall. Walking in, you are not greeted. The aisles are wide, with plenty of room to move around. In the back is an area where you can have someone frame a photo or artwork. They do have some kitsch, and they have a large selection of my favorite laundry additive, so I do have a place close to come for that. They have a large selection for crafting items of all types, and a selection of clearance items that are the better part of 2 aisles. They do not have much of a selection of local crafts, which is something I would like to see locally owned stores having, so that is disappointing. Most of the items are mass produced. It's nice to look at, but there are better values to be made elsewhere, even at the national chain stores.

It's been four years and my last review still holds true, but I wanted to share more love for…read moreDisco. I own many pieces of furniture from here and I always get compliments on them. I have a friend who recently moved to a new place in another state who bemoaned the lack of affordable cool furniture, so she was stuck doing mail order and waiting for sales from places like Arhaus (which I love, don't get me wrong but it's way out of my budget) and Restoration Hardware (ditto). I was reminded of how lucky I am because whenever I need something, most recently a bathroom cabinet, I know I can come to Disco and find something beautiful and unique (also very often on sale! 50%!) But it's not just furniture. It's an art warehouse, much of it New Orleans-inspired so I often come here for gifts. I always know I can find something, whether wall art or a funky one of a kind lamp. Knobs for drawers and door handles (OK, probably not gifts). Candles. And cats (those aren't for sale). And the staff is always so helpful. On Friday the awesome gal working there helped us put our large cabinet on a dolly and to our car. I felt bad because it was a scorcher of a day and obviously it's a warehouse so no A/C in the main room. That's great customer service.

Simple Sweetness!…read more SITREP Such a fun little boutique of a store to kill some time at while waiting to pick up a friend at the Louis Armstrong airport. SETUP Total Tourist Trap, but that is it's charm, and if you happened to accidentally miss the French Quarter, the Marigny neighborhood, or a couple hours trooping through the French Market, at least you have Sweet Simplicity to catch as a final stop before leaving NOLA where you catch some most excellent NOLA, Louisiana, and Saints paraphernalia before you jet out of town. ITEMS GALORE From cooking utensils, food items, gift baskets, themed banners to candles, frames and sports items, you can find so many awesome little trinkets to make into a memorable memento of wildly awesome trip. The trade-off: nothing is really cheap. But I wouldn't expect anything less from a glitzy gift shop. THE LOWDOWN A cutesy, kitschy boutique gift shop to bring back a NOLA themed memento.
