It was super cheap, but it was about the only thing in the place that was. So, I headed to the next place on my phone. It didn't look promising. It's a tiny, little...almost a shed. At first glance, I thought it was going to be stuff with reproduction primitives, based on the name and the outside. I started walking around and this caught my eye...
I know it will sound crazy, but I've been looking for a wire dish rack for about ten years. I always look at them, but they are almost always priced around $40, which is just too high in my opinion. This one was a good deal, so I snapped it up and kept meandering around. This shop was awesome. The proprietress has a wonderful eye and fair pricing. Then, I spotted these...
This shop had a lot of great ironstone at good prices. Score!
And it got even better. I found some apothecary bottles...
...a landscape black & white group portrait, a farm table and this beautiful bird's eye maple dresser.
Lest you think I paint everything, one thing I won't paint is gorgeous bird's eye maple. Isn't this piece gorgeous? I wish I could justify keeping it. (Someone mentioned really wanting this in an anonymous comment and it will be for sale at Lucketts.)
I'm keeping this place a secret for now, so the locals don't raid it. Can you blame me?
Now for the giveaway! I bought one of these a few weeks ago from Christine at Wild Rose. I loved it so much I went to the source and bought a few more for some girls on the blog who wanted them and a couple for my space at Lucketts. I also bought one to giveaway!
If you would like to win an antique metal caddy (I think it's English) with clay pots, just leave a comment.
The giveaway closes Friday, April 15 at midnight EST.
By the way, I haven't forgotten about all of your waxing questions. I have been up to my eyeballs in summer HGTV tutorials and I need to get those finished before I can sit down and write a lengthy technical post. Want a preview of one of my projects?
