If you’re a lover of antiques, you’ll either love this place or it might be too spunky for your taste. I personally love the chaos and I love how they decorate the shop.
My friend Ashley had recommended this place to me when she learned about my love for vintage decor. I can still recall the first time we walked into the shop together. It was like a funhouse! So much to look at and a lot of unique items.

They’ve got 4 large rooms on the ground level floor. One room with all their jewelry and some accessories. I never purchase anything from this area but I’m always rummaging through it. I wear little to no jewelry but it’s still fun to look at.
The basement also has a lot of fun trinkets. There is an area for vintage figurines and children’s toys. They’ve also collected a wide range of vintage clothing for women. Today I was exploring and wished I wore more hats because they looked so beautiful. I almost purchased some gloves that I didn’t need.
There are several items that I don’t need but I want badly. Before committing to an item I’ll think about it’s versatility. Will I use this in my daily life, can I use this for photos, and will guests enjoy seeing this when they visit our home?
I was tempted to purchase some house plants today. I’m going to wait until returns home. He’s better at keeping the plants alive. I’ve been thinking about getting a small cactus and maybe an aloe plant? Let me know if you have any suggestions for me!
There are 15 dealers that help to fill up every nook and cranny in this place. Each item will have a dealers name and the price of the item. I’m always purchasing items from a woman named Mary. Her taste matches mine and her merchandise is always reasonably priced. You can find pretty much anything and if you don’t find that specific item, you’ll leave with something unexpected.
I almost always get excited when I’m here because the staff will invest the time to merchandise the store to keep it looking fresh. I did notice that they have a new policy to check-in backpacks at the front desk. Which means that they’ve attracted a lot of theft to go along with their growing business. It’s unfortunate but I’m happy to see that it hasn’t changed the staff. They’re extremely friendly and always helpful.
I left this evening with two large frames (which were half my height) and a box of goodies. The shop keepers laughed at me when I insisted that I could carry all of my items without any help. It was a kind gesture but it’s cold out and I didn’t want to inconvenience anyone. I’ve also got a slight complex when it comes to completing tasks independently.
