I'm with lucymo ~ I am also reconsidering purchasing any decorative items from the Q as I have also noticed the lack of quality. I have also noticed lots of items presented on shows such as Valerie's and Lisa's Christmas shows now being sold at our local HomeGoods. I was just there today and saw the exact same woodland wreath Lisa presented recently in one of her shows. I bought (and love) the wreath from QVC, although would have returned it in a minute if it was offered a lot less at HomeGoods. HomeGoods was selling it for $29.99, so after paying the return label fee it doesn't make sense to send it back. From now on when I see something I like I'll take a look locally before I decide to order, pay shipping, and possibly pay to send it back if it turns out to be junk. Sorry so many of you received such poorly made items ~ hopefully you'll find what you're looking for but even better!

Home Goods does have nice, inexpensive home decor - quite similar to items on QVC's home shows. I'd consider it a reasonable alternative if I bought a lot of such things.

Don't have a Home Goods close by, do think 1 just opened in my state by note close to me. Wish we did have one though.

I've scrolled past this thread several times over the last couple of days & every time I do, I get a mental picture of Lisa wearing grape clusters in strategic places. Sort of like what we see in some artwork. Sorry, but it makes me giggle every time{#emotions_dlg.blush}

Same here, lol.. The thread title sounds like a euphemism for what might be discussed during a Breezies hour. Smiley Happy

Kitty and Lucy,

Sorry your grape clusters weren't at all what you thought they were or that they weren't what they should be. You would think that they would know they would get them all back if they are so cheaply made so they are going to cost the Q a bundle just like the sleighs are.

Hope you find some out in the B&M stores.

Hey JPC, how are you? Yes, the grape clusters are really badly constructed. They are pretty but for the price the quality is terrible. I'm starting to reconsider purchases from QVC because lately there's too much returning stuff.

Hi lucy,

I am doing better now, my back went out last weekend so have been taking care of it. Went to chiropractor on Tuesday and he said it would be sore for a few days but to keep ice on it. It is feeling pretty good today. Boy, it is always something, isn't it.???

I too am being pickier on what I get from the Q. It is sure hit and miss here with things. Too bad too because it sure looks good on TV.

Have a good weekend lucy.

So sorry to hear about the grape clusters, I was waiting to hear reviews as I wanted to order, guess I won't now.

JPC, so sorry that you're having back problems. That really pretty much puts a person out of everything. Hopefully, you'll be better soon. Take care and try to enjoy your weekend. I'm sure Mr Crazy is taking good care of you. Smile

Hi Ima, these grape clusters are really pretty but they just aren't made well. I thought of taking off each grape and glueing them on, but too much work for the money spent. I got two sets and with S&H it was over $50.00 so I'm returning them. Too bad, they could have been really pretty on the tree, garland, shelf and so many places.

After all these negative reviews, she may need to sell them that way in the future in order to create some interest.
