I love beautiful and exciting entrances when I enter homes. I love the feel of warmth, excitement and intrigue. In seeking the appropriate entrance wall decoration, I went to HomeGoods, where I knew that I would get a wide variety of beautiful wall accessories. Before going to that specialized section in the store, I had to browse to see what other exciting items had been added since my last visit. As always I was messmerized by the new and exciting additions. To maintain my focus, I had to, at that moment, go to the wall accessory section. Immediately, I saw exactly what I was looking for - a 35″x46″ gorgeous painting of flowers strewn on a table and in a tall vase. The colors were right. The picture was perfect. I didn’t have to go any further. As you know, you know it when you see it. ¼/p>
1. HomeGoods really does have some beautiful art. The matting and framing on many pieces is unbelievable. I’ve purchased many pieces for my clients there. They can’t believe the prices I pay for them.

2. I bought the most adorable duramel dishes made by Tabletop Unlimited at one of your stores. I would love to find more of the large square plates however. They have a fish blowing bubbles on them, he is in bright colors of coral, purple and green on a beige back ground. How can I find more? I have gone to the surrounding stores to no avail. Please advise.
Thank you,

3. Completely agree with you on HomeGoods. Their prices are unbeatable for the quality of goods they offer. I had waited two years to accessorize my house because I could not afford the quality and type of accents that I really wanted which are typically offered at stores like Dankars, Haverty’s, etc. I stumbled into HomeGoods by chance after visiting a nearby restaurant. Since then, I have fallen in love and visited nearly every week. At rock bottom prices, I have gotten the most beautiful artworks, framed prints, bathroom accessories, wall grilles, kitchen accessories, end tables, etc. I even found a wine chest that I purchased for $799 at a different store being offered for $299 at HomeGoods. You can imagine how I felt. I inspected same carefully thinking that something must be wrong with the one at HomeGoods. Not a scratch. It was in perfect condition. Most recently, this weekend, I went back to HomeGoods to browse around and saw this absolutely breathtaking bench with a fabric that matched the fabric of some of my draperies. The bench carvings were out of this world and the backrest had this incredible looking wrought iron grille with leaf gold tones centered in the middle which matched my bronze chandelier . Although, the price was quite steep at $699.00, especially for an impulse purchase, I was not deterred. My fear was that it may not be there the next day, as is typical of several of their advertised goods. My fears were confirmed when the store clerk innocently mentioned that they had just put the bench up the previous day. This is true, as I have visited the store at least once a week and had not seen the bench until that day. Without checking with my husband for such an expensive purchase, I threw caution to the wind and paid for it. They loaded same up in my SUV. I brought it home and found the most perfect location for it in my home. Of course, I had to deal with my husband, however, it was worth every penny. Same bench at some of the other high end stores would have cost nothing less than $5,000.
Two weeks ago, I purchased an end table at HomeGoods for $59 that was similar to the end tables that I purchased at another store for close to $400. Funny enough, I even like the one that I purchased from HomeGoods better. The only drawback to HomeGoods is the fact that shopping there is like treasure hunting. It is hard to find items in pairs.
