The Guild Shop

One of my favorite places to pick up unique pieces of jewelry, glassware or home decor is The Guild Shop of St. John the Divine in Houston. This charity/resale/consignment shop located in the heart of Houston, carries almost anything you could imagine. Because it wears so many hats, taking donations and consigning items, the inventory is constantly revolving, which is good and bad. Good, there is always something new to see when you go in, and bad because if you don't buy it when you see it, it will probably be gone the next time you go in. They also lower the price of items every few weeks and the lower price is listed on the tag. So lets say there is a great armoire but right now its $450 but in a month it will be $375 and in 2 months is will be $199e. If you can wait and you are lucky you could possibly get the armoire for half of its initial price.


The Guild Shop carries, furniture, kitchenware, home decor, art, clothing, linens and jewelry and tons of everything else in between.
