This was my first Ashley Williams Warehouse sale, so I didn’t really know what to expect. PetiteVie and our readers were invited to attend the VIP Sale on Thursday, so we had the opportunity to beat the crowd and have access to the greatest deals. When I arrived, I was greeted by some super friendly staff who helped me secure my stroller (strollers are not allowed in the warehouse so I carried Amber in a carrier), and gave me some pointers in where to find the best deals. 
We started our little shopping spree with cake pops from Patricia’s Cake Creations, then passed by a section of super fancy tableware. The first thing that caught my eyes were these Royal Albert tea sets which reminded me of tea parties I used to play with my dolls when I was young. Some of these sets are over 50% off in discount, and a lot of the ladies shopping at the warehouse grabbed more than one. 
Although I’m not a huge fan of wine (I prefer mascato or cocktails), I can’t help but love fancy decanters. These Riedel decanters are not only creative, they are also super light! 
After the fancy tableware section, you get into the actual warehouse with so many things I didn’t even know where to start. They had some super interesting lights featuring old fashioned light bulbs (which was actually filled with LED lights). There were also rows and rows of floor mats, carpets, photo frames and wall art for those who want to personalize their home. 
For those who like to plan ahead, they have a whole section of Christmas decor and Christmas tree ornaments which were absolutely stunning. My favorite are these silver/gold cushions which could honestly be used year-round. 
Next up they have about 1/3 of the warehouse dedicated to kitchenware, appliances and other dinnerware – which is where I spent most of my time (and money) on. 
The best part of the warehouse is their dedicated “man cave” and “woman cave” sections which has a lot of unique decor and specialty products which could be amazing gift ideas for your other half! 
To highlight a few things I bought from the sale…
One for Tristan’s room and the other for Amber’s room. The cloud was $14.99 and the rainbow was $24.99.
At the warehouse, they were selling a set of 3 side-release pans for $9.99 which are perfect for mousse cakes and cheesecakes. I also bought myself a 3-tiered cooling rack (which you could use individually) for $14.99, that could definitely help save space when I do my cake orders. I also got some washable place mats for $2.99 to change things up a bit for my guests. Last but not least, my favorite purchase from the kitchen batch – the wood serving plate with handles. It was only $32.99 – can you believe it? Perfect for cheese, crackers and charcuterie!
fresh fry paper at the sale which would pair perfectly with the baskets! Time to make some sweet potato fries!
I found this light hidden somewhere at the bottom of a shelf, and there was only 1. Bought it for $19.99! Always wanted one of these in my room or living room.
My interesting find of the day. First time seeing Fitkicks which are shoes that are close to non-existent, therefore super comfortable and easy to bring around. Perfect for my upcoming plane ride! They have a pretty big selection of color and patterns so check it out near the checkout area!
Not sure if anyone would buy this at original price ($50), because $24.99 is a bit pricey for the quality of the toy. That being said, Tristan loves anything that spins and stackable so I couldn’t resist but to get this for him. He’s pretty much in his own little world when he’s playing with this toy (he wouldn’t stop playing even when I offered him cake) so I guess he loves it and therefore money well spent?
If you missed the VIP event earlier this week, the warehouse sale is still going on until April 15th.
