We are great finders, and many times great keepers too. We love to hunt for bargains and unusual items for the shop, but we also take a fair number of our treasures home to enjoy.
Many of us have some pretty impressive collections at home. Some of the things we like to collect include silver, bread boxes, old books / prints, vintage clothing, and ironstone. Since wrangling everyone around here to take pictures of their collections and send them in so we can post them on our blog would be a near impossible feat to coordinate, we've decided to feature a few of our favorite pictures of collections we'd love to own. Enjoy!
Glass bottles in every shape, color and size. Imagine being this organized?

Collection of vintage crystal decanters just sitting on a shelf? No problem! Make them in to your own light fixture!

A bookcase full of antique books. Notice how the bookcase was made from an old French door?

Varsity penants. Sometimes we have stacks of these at the shop.
