Re: Big Lots Fall Decor

Did anyone see or perhaps buy this one and willing to offer an opinion? I'm sort of interested in it based just on the photo, but I'm not crazy about the way the leaves and stem are glittered.

I was in and so wanted the battery operated pumpkins and gourds but if it doesn't have a timer I pass it by. Am to forgetful about turning those on and off. Will gladly pay extra for that feature.

I just don't think their products are of the same quality as QVC and Valerie Par Hill. I noticed most of it is imported from China.

I bought a ton of Fall Stuff at Big Lots. Had a blast shopping. My mantle looks so pretty. Also have a lot of stuff from QVC from last year.

I bet the BL's stuff was a lot cheaper and looks just as good as the QVC stuff.

Big Lots does have some very nice seasonal decor year in and year out. Great prices and very good sales, especially as you approach the holidays -- and then great clearance afterwards. Some of their stuff is cheaper and chintzy looking, but they have some very nice items that look much more expensive than they are. A decor/staging wizard like VPH could take a wagonload of BL items to her set and make them look like a million bucks.

If you look at the items from Valerie and QVC you'll find it is made in China too. I would like to buy American made, but where do we find merchandise that is? Sadly, there is more MIC out there than American made.

I have been in our local Big Lots several times and have seen a lady with carts and carts of items. She is a home ""stager"" and gets homes ready for sale by realtors in town. She buys all of her home decor items there.

There was a time I would have agreed with this statement, but no longer. Very much of VPH items have been reduced to the same quality of BL or Walmart. And most all her offerings are made in China now too.
