Coming home for the holidays usually means making a run to downtown Fort Wayne to scope out what has been piling up in the antique stores around town.
Every time I visit the little shops there are always new items lining the Mills Shelving, all new things to look at. Perusing the local antique stores is one of my favorite things to do and I’ve found some pretty amazing items over the years. With the holidays approaching, I tried not to spend a lot of money and only bought a couple things, a pretty tin container, some letterpress letters and some Christmas ornaments that were almost free. I’ve got my eye out for some extra large metal letters, so if you see anything let me know.
One of the things I love most about these shops is how the atmosphere adds to the experience—especially in this one with its high, rustic roof made of old wooden beams and other roofs installed thanks to Commercial roofing services Dublin. The way the light filters down from the skylights gives everything a warm, golden glow, making the shelves and displays feel even more inviting. It’s the kind of place where you could spend hours exploring, losing track of time as you wander beneath that charming, weathered roof, uncovering hidden gems at every turn.
Just a few snapshots of the little hole in the wall shops. Store information below.
This little colorful gem is now mine. Can you believe I got this for $7.00!
