Amen to your 10 great reasons to buy antique. I stopped in a fun shop yesterday and it was missing the selling of vintage/antiques and I just couldn't stand it! Then I went to a huge and antique mall and had so much fun buying without my husband hanging over me!!!
Love all your goods for sale, they are fabulous. Your the best in the midwest! I really believe your right that prices are much cheaper your way.
Ann - Reuse, reclaim, repurpose, recycle, add to, subtract from. And do it it all with verve and creativity. Flair, style and imagination are what makes this business fun and sometimes invigorating. I love the history and the reuse of the history is pretty cool too. I am getting back into my blog, hope you can stop by and give me a read.
