Pat you just jump in your car and come anytime!!! My mom used to be an antique dealer in this building we live in and I have the old sign she used. I had it up on the wall at one time. It is old barn boards connected with log chains. This building started out as my Dad's automotive shop!
One side says Mills Auto Shop and Sales and the other side says Mills Antique Shop
So I collect old things because that is what I grew up around. I use to haunt a friend's antique shop and learned a lot from her and my mom and just from going antiquing.
When you can't afford alot the primitive look is real easy to do!! I don't always have more than $10 or so but you can pick up spice tins for a couple of dollars and I like a lot of stuff that isn't expensive. It adds up over time! I do fight for space but I still won't give it up!! My mom and my husband are just as bad!!
