Very nice, although I was sad I had to rush through 1 floor. They closed at 5pm . Apparently not longer hours on weekends for holiday shopping 🙃 I did find a vintage quilt and some museum quality Christmas cards. Never made it to their upstairs. 🫤
Thanks for the five stars Brenda! You'll have to come back to explore the second floor... so many more treasures up there! We are open late before the holidays on Thursday evenings (until 8pm) and during certain town events. So glad you found some treasures! Thanks for sharing your review and photos- hope you'll stop by again soon!
