Thinking Spring.... It is another rainy day, gray and gloomy . I am so looking forward to Spring. Creating little Spring Vignettes in the Shop. I am like that little bird , looking for signs. Will it be here soon ?
We are located in Historic Old Town Lilburn in the state of Georgia USA. 93 Main Street 30047 Open Monday - Saturday 10am - 5 pm 770 279-1300
Antiques in Old Town has 7000 sq ft and 35 Great Dealers. Every day NEW-OLD Treasures arrive. Our shop has an upper and a lower level. Come see..... Closed Sunday- Gone to Church...
God has blessed me with a passion for decorating and creating. I see possibilities in everything! Less is not more and some more is never enough.... I collect: Mica Churches, Vintage Tomato pin cushions, Turkey dishes, Vintage green handle kitchen items, Berlinwork mottos, and more... Together with my HERO Hugh we run Antiques In Old Town. Hugh does all the anti gravity projects (as he calls them) and handles all the daily stuff, leaving me time to create,decorate and visit with all our special customers and friends. God is so good! I count my blessings daily.
