A few weekends ago Christian and I had an awesome Saturday, we picked out tile, hardwood flooring, light fixtures, and paint colors. Defiantly a treat from our typical 'work at sunrise till sundown' Saturday. On our way home from Glen Arm we came across Bennett's Trading Post, an antique shop Christian had told me about a while back. Sooo we decided to stop and once our feet hit that parking lot pavement my "American Pickers/Antique Roadshow" instincts were turned up to full throttle. I was in PARADISE!! I loved and wanted almost everything...poor Christian tried to put a timer on how long we could stay, he lost. We even had to go back that day and pick up all of our belongings because it wouldn't fit :) Below are the pieces we found and I cannot wait to incorporate them into the house, they are going to fit perfectly with our theme. I'm not a pro at antique shopping by any means but below are a few tips that helped me with my purchases.
