I found a pearl in a sea of junk stores. Design Savvy Unique Finds, an antique store…definitely not a junk store. I needed a nightstand but didn’t want something without character. I saw what I could use as a nightstand and it just made me feel as if it was meant to be. It made me happy. After a long search for any nightstand I found it here at Design Savvy. Also the owner treated me as if she has known me for years…I will be returning often as she has such a variety of items. Would highly recommend if you love antique shops. UPDATE. April 17, 2025: I was looking for a cabinet to keep my tea cups and saucers safe. Of course I found a cabinet at Design Savvy! All the character I love. And even more, my Mother’s handmade doilies. They haven’t seen the light of day for over 30 years. It was meant to be. The owner is kind and friendly. She will work with you if you just have to have an item. Oh and yes, I got that beautiful jade statue here too. It was calling to me! 😁
Linda so very happy to help you find that treasure ! You are a fabulous customer and I so Appreciate your kind words ! Enjoy this beautiful find!

Never has there been a time that I enter this store and I’m not in awe of all the cool things I find. From antiques from the early 1900’s to the hand painted pieces of furniture and reupholstery work. Cathy the owner of the store is truly talented and brings much love and joy to every one she speaks to. I look forward to my weekly visits.
Shawn I appreciate seeing you weekly as well! Thanks for all your support of such a small business like mine! I do enjoy my craft and enjoy seeing all my family, friends and customers weekly! You are so appreciated!

My Mom and I had such an awesome time at the window pane class! It was my first time doing anything like that but Cathy is a great teacher and took us all step by step. She had food and drinks as well, it was a cute set up. Her shop has a lot of interesting finds as well. We will absolutely be going back!

We have only ever had amazing experiences here! I love that the store has a wide variety of antiques and furniture pieces. We were able to find two cool antique signs. To top it off the owner is super sweet and will even keep an eye out for items you are interested in that she might not have.
Whitney so happy you all found some sweet signs in my store! I am so blessed to have the customers I have!
