On a Whim — Local services in Leesburg

The items are nice, well organized & a lot to browse. However the two older women working yesterday, 1/2/21, were so rude.

Although I love shopping here, I would be careful about what you do and do not spend...

I do a lot of antiquing and thrifting and honestly was not impressed by this place. I think it’s fine if you’re into the barn style for home decor but not much else. Most of the wood furniture is painted some gaudy colour and has an insane price tag. One piece we found was a really beautiful writers desk painted a terrible blue, and it’ll cost you about $180.
