Let's Go Antiquing


The snow finally melted enough to go out and do a little "antiquing"........

I took a few photo's to share.....

I didn't buy anything.....

Just enjoyed being out of the house.....

I saw some very unusual things......

Went upstairs and down stairs......

saw a few things to put on my wish list.....

I'm thinking ahead about some spring decorating......

I collect Dessert Rose,  so I lingered a little longer at this display.....

I found it hard to resist buying these gorgeous dishes......

Another item on my wish list.....

This antique mall is an old bowling alley .....

This is my favorite booth.....

Thanks for joining me on my antiquing trip!

  3. You are a lady after my own heart! There is nothing like taking a nice long stroll through an antique mall. The hubby often laughs at me because the first thing I do when I walk in is take a deep breath....I love that stale musty smell...all those treasures just waiting to be found!

    Of course, within half an hour his giggles turn to groans as he realizes I will not leave until I have investigated every single booth in the store! Even if I don't buy a thing, it is still a lovely way to spend an afternoon.

  7. I think the trunk AND those gorgeous green dishes should have come home with you. I don't care how many dishes I have, I would have bought those. *SWOON*

  14. I love antiquing! I love that white trunk! I took pictures from my last visit to a local antique store, but I haven't gotten around to sharing them yet. I will soon.

  15. When we lived in MT we were always going anywhere we knew was an antique store. Even some closer to home. Helena and our own town (Townsend) south of Helena were great sources of spending yummy afternoons in winter poking in nooks and crannies for every delectable treasure. Hubs got to be quite a scrounger too. SAme thing when we lived in KY, there's a wonderful little town north east of Bowling Green called Smith's Grove just full of incredible antique stores. Many a day spent there. That was my first go to when I was alone and wanted to find some lovely little treasure to take home. Hubs was on road alot so I had loads of time to go antiquing.
    You sure found lots of awesome treasures on your little side trip. Wonder what you'll go back to buy, maybe that delicious trunk? I'm not quite up to being on my feet for very long yet, get tired quickly since surgery but soon will be ready again. Groan says hubs. Cold wintery days are perfect for antiquing don't you agree? Happy New Year.

  16. Love that trunk too! But it's hard to find space for bigger things anymore as you probably know. Isn't it fun to get out a little?

  17. How did you pass on those dishes? I know I would have to because we just don't have the space, but oh, the tablescapes that I could create with them.

    Thanks for the little bit of shopping. I am in my "declutter" phase so a virtual shopping trip where I can't actually buy anything is best.

    Glad you Shared Your Cup!
