“Simple Craftsman did a fantastic job on restoring my mother’s vintage dining room table and chairs. I highly recommend Darren and Kathy to help with any detailed work that needs to be done! Simple Craftsman is a beautiful well kept store that I recommend to everyone that can appreciate great antiques!

“I’ve been shopping here for years and love natural stone jewelry. Her collection is so unique and the quality of the stones is top tier. My favorite shop! Always new goodies to admire. A fantastic place to shop for gifts.”
“I love this little antique store!! I always leave with really unique goodies and the owners are so kind! The hours are clearly posted online so you just have to check before going.”
“Top notch work- Rocky the owner reupholstered my couch- Totally Superb workmanship! I was talking with a friend of mine recently, he said the same exact thing about a couch he had redone there! THEY DO EXCELLENT WORK, AND THUS HAVE AN EXCELLENT REPUTATION!”
“What an absolute delight! I am so appreciative of the high quality, sensory and customer experience every time I visit. I am delighted to have found this beautiful shop which is reasonably priced for the carefully curated and very fine items it carries from places I have been but don’t get to regularly visit. The owner has done this for us. The lounge wear is elegant and luxuriously soft. The owner went above and beyond in ordering me a few pieces in my size and they were ironed and hanging beautifully when I arrived. Uniquely set among beautiful antiques, cabinets and chandeliers, it is like being transported to a shop in Paris. A must see!!!!!”

“I love this shop, the owner and ladies who work there are so helpful and kind. Unique items for gifts. They carry a wonderful line of jewelry to get your bling on called Rachel Marie Designs and Firefly. They have Clothes and accessories also. All around great shop.”
“Cute as a button. Many rooms of cool stuff. Prices are reasonable. Note: cash only.Another note: hours are limited, but owner is happy to open the shot on appointment.I liked the eclectic selection. It’s clear that someone is paying attention to what types of things are brought - high quality and diverse choices. Many cool glass and wooden items.”
“Just speaking on the bookstore and not the rest of the stalls - I didn't find the specific book I was looking for but there is a really great selection here overall and the prices are fantastic. All hardbacks and everything is $3, so easy to tote up how much you find. (One small shelf has some under-$3 but there's nothing much popular there.) I ended up with another book that I'm very happy with and would come back here in a heartbeat! You can also drop off all your unwanted books in large bins outside (like huge post office boxes) if you're looking to get rid of any. The selection inside looked pretty curated so it looks like they only resell the best ones? The whole store and all book donations go towards the Dayton-area Project Read which helps get free books into the hands of schoolkids, so I expect they especially like book donations aimed at the 18 and under set.Anyway, as far as the shopping experience goes - it's easy to find everything, check out is very friendly, and there are lots of fun & unusual snacks by the checkout counter, if you want a snack while you read. I was particularly taken with the "RC Cola & Moon Pie" display since I'm from Chattanooga.”
“Kool place, buddy got a ratrod from here, it had been sitting forever and I got the liberty of rubbing her down and knocking off the dust and cobwebs, before helping do some updates, we fabbed up some metal webs to go in the back windows that were made of thin rebar and magnetically attached to remove them, other updates such and engine, wheels and wide white walls were installed as well as some gauges and other shiny dress up things.. the doors originally had some hand painted logos, that were removed and changed for the new owner to say "Dirty 30" it's a Ford and yes 1930 and the condition it was in was dirty, but now it's "Dirtyness" is visual beauty in the old school car game.. Rick and Kimberly Shirk are the current owners.. I'll add photos and video soon.. ..”
“I am new to Lebanon. I live just up the street from the store. I bought a bench that I thought I would just carry home. NOT? it was heavy. 2 very nice ladies that work there rallied together to help me get it home. A very nice man put it in his van & took me home. They will see me alot but maybe I better get a truck first ?”
“I think I want to come back every October because all of the booths had such cute Halloween decorations. It's very large with almost all of the booths filled, so give yourself time to look around. I think it took us 3 hours to go through most of the booths thoroughly.”

“I decided to stop in to look for some footrests for my living room chairs and found 2 incredibly similar footrests (at different vendors, nonetheless). Both need very little tlc to revitalize and, with some new fabric, will make the perfect addition to the space. I'm thrilled to spend half of the price of one new rest for 2 well made, real wood items. Lots of treasures to see here and polite employees at the register. I will be back!”
“I have visited this place a lot, i like it because they seem to have so much stuff that i actually collect, I have bought Garbage pail kids, M.U.S.C.L.E. men toys, G.I. joes, HO scale model trains, VHS tapes and many other vintage toys here....I collect toys and items i had in the 80's as a kid and this place always seems to have this stuff...Great job guys!”
